Every time he complains that projectiles aren't reflecting, a minion cries from being hit by the reflected projectile he didn't notice :'] stay strong my little guys
And it's completely deserved as well. She released and held a 52% winrate on day one. No matter how easy the champ is, I don't think a new release has ever been above 50% on day 1
My main problem with her is not as much damage but range. Of course she gets easily fed and deals a lot of damage. But if her range was not as long, you could have more chances at challenging her, and avoiding feeding her. I played as Syndra and stomped her, I forgot once about her W in late game and ulted her and one shot myself xD After that I learned to first bait her W before ulting.
@stratosm3154 I don't see how her laning is weak when she has long range, decent engage and good disengage with a root that goes through minions and her W.
Imagine if riot had like a server, maybe an environment, to test these things on.. Something they could use before releasing heroes or patches to gauge how strong they might be 🤔. I think that's more of a 2026 thing, really.
Nice vid Neme, I also looking to play Mel Support and i notice that Karma's Qs are reflected but in your case both times was blocked by enemy minion in lanephase. (Syndra Stun Can't be blocked :S)
I played a total of 19 games today, and every time I wanted to play Mel. She was picked and banned every single game, didn't even get to play her once.
the best thing you can do in your game is to ban the new champion. On your team it always be some noob that doesn`t even know how it works. On the enemy team it will be hidden chellenger that will end the game in 15 minutes. You will play it may be later

Love watching these videos while eating lunch. Looking forward to seeing how Mel’s kit affects the overall game, just not from playing against it 😂. Guess I can’t get away with perma banning ambessa anymore
She’s the most uncreative design we’ve had in like 10 years. Extremely generic line snare, circle AoE + defensive spell that literally half the mages have(Lux, Morgana, Neeko, Zyra, Seraphine, Zyra off the top of my head). The reflect feels tacked on to give her something unique. She adds nothing to the game, 0 reason to exist except to force an Arcane character into League.
No, mathematically they're right, the nerfs aren't crazy. They're looking at how easily she's overkilling prio targets at 1-2 items vs late game. Her overkill late game will likely be unaffected, but now she won't be bursting w/ minimal interaction from her kit. They had to remove enough damage that you had to add an entire extra rotation in mid game. That's going to be a very significant chunk of damage on any character let alone a mage. The issue is that she just dogwalks most mages also really easy to play lol.
She's kinda ruined Swiftplay for me. There's always a Mel, which has increased queue times, and she feels impossible to play against, especially as ADC
i think she was fine and didn't need hotfix her earrly game is stronger than her late i think if she doesn't reflect any OP ability with her W then she is useless
I think the nerf was a bit much but her presence in lane due to high base stats and a basically unmissable Q and E was an absolute nightmare. you just kind of had to hope she didn't misplay or else she would poke you down with no risk to herself.
i think she was strong but as busted as people thought. i think people were upset that they needed to think about slinging abilities at her. heard some people complain about her execute for minions that it was unfair but no one complains about malz e execute minions
that's because Malz is shortranged af and his execute is like at 15 minion health. Mel can execute minions at higher health while outranging almost every mage in the game with a cockblock ability on top.
Well they nerfed her, now she feels horrible to play, your passive stacks are refreshing way too fast, no burst to compensate, well time to go back to other champs, sad the kit was fun and promising.

The AP scalling on R from Passive and Passive itself was nerfed by 60% relatively to previous AP scalling LMAO
I saw her in a few games. Absolutely braindead champion.
And it's completely deserved as well. She released and held a 52% winrate on day one. No matter how easy the champ is, I don't think a new release has ever been above 50% on day 1

"we want her to be mid/support/bot" that used to be something the players decided cuz they found out it was op, not designed for xD.

Tbh her laning is kinda weak but she has a lot of ways to get back in the game later on. That's where the ap scalings of her become a problem

the pbe is mostly for bugs, not balance
Can't wait to see a full tank Mel highlight reel, that passive is stupid and should've never been allowed
the baus face when you say run it down is great

god saw ppl having fun with lol and proceeded to create new champs..
its been 6 years probably since i enjoyed a new release
mel support would be good into ashe no? she can reflect her ult with w which will have much less cd and she can also reflect her w
when the new president said drill baby drill, this is what he meant

If there is minions the hability wont pass throw man whatch closer

Overwhelm is about to be Underwhelming
Banger Mel gameplay xdd
'not overly strong' hydrogen bomb of a hotfix. can't say it's bad, though
Support gameplay lowkey goated
They’re making the game SO easy for new players it’s hilarious
if theres one thing ill give riot they know how to lie thats for sure
i mostly dont like that she has xerath range
Jokes on everyone I WANT to play her as support.
Let s enjoy.
She's kinda ruined Swiftplay for me. There's always a Mel, which has increased queue times, and she feels impossible to play against, especially as ADC
In 5 days noone will play Mel

U sad u can’t abuse new release op champ? What a shame
So you are mad that they have inaccurate numbers while everyone is learning a new champion
52% winrate champ on release patch. Literally something that NEVER happens. She was way to strong so riot had to hotfix.
