Playing against Mel
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Mel is relatively immobile and depends on positioning — flank her to force her out of her comfort zone.
Her R is global but has a delay — reposition if you see the indicator.
Focus her in teamfights to prevent her from buffing her allies with her zones.
