Mel's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Searing Brilliance (P)

Whenever Mel uses an ability, she gains three bonus projectiles (up to nine maximum) on her next attack.When Mel deals damage through an ability or attack, she applies Overwhelm, which can stack infinitely. If the enemy is hit by Mel with enough Overwhelm damage, the stacks are consumed to execute the target.

Playing as Twisted Fate

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Pick the right card

    Lock in the card you need with Pick a Card (W): the Gold Card stuns, the Red Card slows in an area and helps clear the wave, the Blue Card restores mana.

  2. Stun, then throw Wild Cards

    Land the Gold Card from Pick a Card (W) before Wild Cards (Q): stunned for 1 to 2 seconds depending on rank, the target can't dodge your cards.

  3. Push, then roam with your ult

    Push your wave, then cast Destiny (R): you see every enemy champion, and the recast teleports you up to 5500 range away to gank another lane.

Playing against Mel

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her snare's orb

    Dodge the orb of Solar Snare (E): a direct hit roots you, and its aura slows and damages around it.

  2. Don't shoot into her barrier

    If you have projectiles, don't fire them into Rebuttal (W): the barrier reflects champion projectiles back at their caster.

  3. Let her marks expire

    At low health, back off for a few seconds to let Overwhelm expire: with enough stacks, Searing Brilliance (passive) executes you on her next hit.

  4. Jump on her if you can

    If you can engage, jump on her: Mel has no dash or leap, only the move speed Rebuttal (W) gives her.
