If you pay attention to the R in the HUD bar, you’ll be able to see that it turns golden when an enemy has enough stacks applied to be killed. In case you didn’t know!
This champ is also good for stealing dragon. The execute works there too at around 500 hp. You basically force the enemy team to require a smite or it will auto go to Mel.
Change My Mind: Mel's W is just a copy of Nayru's Love, Princess Zelda's reflect ability in Super Smash. Invert the color and it looks identical in both visual and function. Day 151 of asking Zwag to play full move speed Yorick, because no one ever seen a 'Rick run so fast.
WW seems to be listening in to you, Zwag. At 8:48 Warwick /all chatted "i did" without context, so it seems likely he did it in response to what you said, given the timing. 🐍 I wonder how her passive interacts with other execute effects, like Elder Dragon buff and The Collector...
zwag tends to invite followers into custom games when it comes to new champs because usually new champs will end up getting selected by other players or outright banned.
That's what feels like playing dota. Everything is so broken, but usually items are the answer to everything. Blade mail (item) returns all damage for 5.5 seconds (doesnt block it though) nyx (hero) spiked carapace (ability): 2 seconds duration, 8 seconds cooldown -> blocks and returns damage while also stunning the enemy for 1.6 seconds
The big thing i notice with this vs a heavy cdr build, is that W is such a long cd that it's never up. 20:52 it would be really funny if WW ult was coded as a projectile and you could send him flying back at his team.
A note about the W is that it not only reflects and and all projectiles that hit you while its up, but it also negates all damage while its up regardless of type...crazy
Oh yeah they are nerfing her into the ground before full release. Good god. Can't wait for full release to get maybe a quarter of this and then 3 months of inching her up to be a playable champing that can almost touch the B-tier of champion.
Ok for those who are confused and didn't read the patch, her W can reflect everything than Yasuo's windwal can block, and spell she can't reflect the shield makes her ake no damage from the spell that just hit her 👍
Mel's reflect reminds me of nemesis' waaaaaaay back when she just released in smite. Long story short, Nemesis reflected ALL THE DAMAGE you dealt, while also healing her for a % of said damage. Say a Lux fully comboed you in less than a second, Nemesis reflected all her combo back at her. Anyway, the fix was making it so she got a fixed amount of shielding, and said shield would reflect/heal, whatever damage after the shield broke, she would receive.
Yeah, PBE games are done with viewers on his stream. They're listening to him and often reply or ask questions in chat. Similar things happened in the other Mel game, including Zwag saying "these ppl are helping me create content, I'm going to overstay till I die" when the correct move was recalling and buying. They're just having fun.
Might sound crazy... But I have this feeling that one of her best roles might not be Mid or Top, but instead she might stomp botlane and not as support, but as an APC given her execute and reflect making her extra safe against poke AND engage.
Lol WW was watching/listening to your livestream while playing 😂 he answered your question if he died before ult in chat. He knows where everyone is from your livestream.
If she doesn't get nerfed before release point and click assassins like Talon or Naafiri (kind of) will be mandatory because she will snowball out of control every game, her damage is crazy throughout all the stages of the game and her Q where most of the damage gets applied from is so easy to land
Her abilities are fine, I would say remove either the 1 second invincibility or MS from the W, but take out the execute. For Smolder its fine cuz he has to stack to get to that point but for Mel to have it at the beginning and throughout the game makes her snowball too easy to get
Suspicious that Mel's W is an exact copy of Zelda's neutral b skill in Smash Bros, and her ult, it's literally an execute as Zelda's ultimate. I wouldn't say it's an inspiration, but a mere chroma skin of Zelda. Great video as always!
Usually 2 weeks after pbe release. But at this rate she's gonna be a completely different champ by then. If they keep her the way she is she's gonna be banned 90% of the games and still probably have 60+% win rate.
Number tuning aside, what is with a 1 second invulnerability? The reflection is cool and unique, but also stopping non-projectile damage. Also not just the first? Also it's a spell shield to projectiles in addition to reflecting the ability? Just wow. She isn't even weaker if you get on top of her like how Xerath is. Curious to see how she lands after the inevitable nerfs.
1:12 - You know I wasn't interested in on-hit Mel, until you said it couldn't be done. Now I'm curious as to how it could be done, and wondering how many days it would take, to change your mind 🤔
The funniest part about reflecting smolder's ult is that his mom is coming back at him xD
Mommy no!
Lmao
Lucky him
The reflect has to be the most fun ever. It's better to see a sylas steal an ult to only have it sent back at him.
If you pay attention to the R in the HUD bar, you’ll be able to see that it turns golden when an enemy has enough stacks applied to be killed. In case you didn’t know!
thanks for the info ^^
Day 2 asking for Crit Mel
This champ is also good for stealing dragon. The execute works there too at around 500 hp. You basically force the enemy team to require a smite or it will auto go to Mel.
the execute on drag/baron caps at 500?
10:03 lmao smolder saying pls no. Was legit me my last game. Mel top and I knew I was screwed from the start lol.
13:05 Smolder's mom killing his own son 💀
Very sad moment((
The only explanation I see is that Smolder’s mom just flew by and used breath and Mel just reflected the breath
You can see that the mom’s shadow is not reflected
7:14 u did in fact reflect 2 spells. As long as ur ability is active it reflects every projectile
“Did Zwag Xerath get the first 6 CS?”
Yes, he got all 6!
Win Streak: 1
Change My Mind: Mel's W is just a copy of Nayru's Love, Princess Zelda's reflect ability in Super Smash. Invert the color and it looks identical in both visual and function.
Day 151 of asking Zwag to play full move speed Yorick, because no one ever seen a 'Rick run so fast.
Haha I thought of this too the first time I saw it
WW seems to be listening in to you, Zwag. At 8:48 Warwick /all chatted "i did" without context, so it seems likely he did it in response to what you said, given the timing. 🐍
I wonder how her passive interacts with other execute effects, like Elder Dragon buff and The Collector...
It's prolly an easter egg
hes playing with viewers, on pbe to get matches
zwag tends to invite followers into custom games when it comes to new champs because usually new champs will end up getting selected by other players or outright banned.
28:00 and onwards, no matter how fed you are no champ should be able to do that on their own pretty much, this is a travesty
Zwag: "I'm uh little crazy fed now"
Me: UHHH LITTLE?
That's what feels like playing dota. Everything is so broken, but usually items are the answer to everything.
Blade mail (item) returns all damage for 5.5 seconds (doesnt block it though)
nyx (hero) spiked carapace (ability): 2 seconds duration, 8 seconds cooldown -> blocks and returns damage while also stunning the enemy for 1.6 seconds
day 7 of asking for ap APhelios!
Dope pfp
The big thing i notice with this vs a heavy cdr build, is that W is such a long cd that it's never up.
20:52 it would be really funny if WW ult was coded as a projectile and you could send him flying back at his team.
Fun fact: people told Beethoven he could not be a musician because he was deaf. He didn’t listen though.
AchhTuAllyyy BeeThoven BeCame DeaF aFter hE wAs a MuScian
@@jamaljenkins8968 Boooooooo Booooooooooo
25:35 I laughed so hard when Malphite took the reflected Kaisa W like "ey, wtf" :D
A note about the W is that it not only reflects and and all projectiles that hit you while its up, but it also negates all damage while its up regardless of type...crazy
22:50 You weren’t crazy Zwag. You DID block the Malphite’s Ult damage. 😂🎉
15:24 best part of the video
Lore (series) accurate Mel.
Barely seeing her using her powers in the show, but damn they are strong!
10:00 my god that smolder going "pls no" in chat instantly was so fucking funny
right lmao
her w is literally zelda b in ultimate lmao
Oh yeah they are nerfing her into the ground before full release. Good god. Can't wait for full release to get maybe a quarter of this and then 3 months of inching her up to be a playable champing that can almost touch the B-tier of champion.
29:05 Bro killed everything so fast that it didn't leave room for anyone to do damage, not even his teammates
That was a game man, great one!
Was finishing watching your first Mel video and the notif for this vid popped up
Ok for those who are confused and didn't read the patch, her W can reflect everything than Yasuo's windwal can block, and spell she can't reflect the shield makes her ake no damage from the spell that just hit her 👍

5:13 I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more skillful Ult outplay 💀
Who would have believed that Smolder was actually just Mel at home.
Zwag Xerath sadly lost four cannons
Took me 10 minutes to realize this was in the zwagmo video, I'll still watch it
the projectiles she fires feel way faster because they have no animation, once something touches her it instantly comes back.
"Sta-ha-ha-ha-hop, he's already dead!"
smolder at 10:00 "pls no" 😂
16:29 that sounded so hilariously painful lol.
This blitz reflekt looks amazing , i cant stop laughing for rest video 😂😂
8:59 did warwick just answered zwag? 😭😭😭

Warwick thought he was fed, then he went to fight you just to realize
i think sylas might be her hardest counter he wants to be next to you so reflecting the grab doesnt do anything and he doesnt have projectiles
Something to consider is that Mal is the only one building MR on your opponent's team.
Lol WW was watching/listening to your livestream while playing 😂 he answered your question if he died before ult in chat. He knows where everyone is from your livestream.
If she doesn't get nerfed before release point and click assassins like Talon or Naafiri (kind of) will be mandatory because she will snowball out of control every game, her damage is crazy throughout all the stages of the game and her Q where most of the damage gets applied from is so easy to land
Would her passive apply crit
The most ridiculous champ ever. More of these please
I feel like Cosmic Drive and Phase Rush would be good on her honestly. Haste and MS seem really nice on Mel
Dude the fact that a Maxed W has 0 MANA COST is craaaazy
Seeing this champion in action made me so happy I quit when I did. They clearly have stopped caring about the quality of this game
omg even if Smolder didn't take damage from his mom turning around and blasting him I feel like it would still be a counter.
There are no max stacks on her passive :)
I kinda want to ammu vs her and let her pull herself into us lol
if they made it so the execute only worked on autos and Ult, i think that would help balance her damage?
Her abilities are fine, I would say remove either the 1 second invincibility or MS from the W, but take out the execute. For Smolder its fine cuz he has to stack to get to that point but for Mel to have it at the beginning and throughout the game makes her snowball too easy to get
That smolder got roasted
Can you put the description of the starter items again I don’t have this game so I read the items
they should remove her execute damage
burn, burst, and bruiser mel sound like the most viable, tank could work
How soon befoe the rework 🤔
I mean, they nerfed smolder into the dirt for the exact same reasons(massively scaling execute), i don't get why they expected this to be any better.
Hey zwag did i hear some Deep Rock Galactic music in your video? RnS!
Zwag did you know you could reflect blitzcrank hook and pykes stun?
Having watched a few of these now, I kinda feel like they just made her 200 years Lux lol
wow gg nice play and mal is OP
That reflect kill 🤣🤣🤣
Suspicious that Mel's W is an exact copy of Zelda's neutral b skill in Smash Bros, and her ult, it's literally an execute as Zelda's ultimate. I wouldn't say it's an inspiration, but a mere chroma skin of Zelda.
Great video as always!
When does Mel release?
Usually 2 weeks after pbe release. But at this rate she's gonna be a completely different champ by then. If they keep her the way she is she's gonna be banned 90% of the games and still probably have 60+% win rate.
Thanks Zwag, they will nerf her after this
what about Rhylai's to slow with Q and then hit Max Range E Root/Burn
Zwag, Can you please do Diana Tank?
She even damaged me from all the way back here... my mental! GeeeZ
that execute on autos is so good for farm at low levels.
Number tuning aside, what is with a 1 second invulnerability? The reflection is cool and unique, but also stopping non-projectile damage. Also not just the first? Also it's a spell shield to projectiles in addition to reflecting the ability? Just wow.
She isn't even weaker if you get on top of her like how Xerath is. Curious to see how she lands after the inevitable nerfs.
I would say the invincibility might be removed soon after 2 or 3 patches
As much damage as the entire enemy team combined.
So is kassadin gonna be a good pick into her ?
Asking you to play full ap milio mid, i think it would make for a fun video! Really good ap scaling on his Q with 120% and the knockback is good too
As the name of my favorite Carmageddon level, Unfair Funfair.
That reflect is fkn op 😂😂
They overcanked her massively
Close enough to day 10 of asking for Mundo is immune (all tenacity items, edge of night, qss.)
Malphite: do less damage please :(
Says the player that didnt buy MR
Also Zwag, can Mel jungle??? Her damage seems high enough…
her E is just the old aurelion e but as a normal ability like morganas q or lux q
Hell yeah brother
literally Kill Secured: the Champion
Might be the strongest champ I’ve ever seen, stronger than release Zeri, Samira, Aphelois. She might be even stronger than s5 kassadin
Play her as a support
Her ult must be so broken with karthus ult
Galio might be a good champ to use against her, only use Q when taunted so cant reflct and might be tanky enough to live against the dmg.
Maybe Pantheon too but he needs to play aggressive and get lvl 2 prio and and good trade right away
cant wait to play her in urf. even when they nerf her dmg by 50% she will still be a pain the ass
Apologize to that smolder player😢
The fact that you can deny farm and wave clear with this champion is obnoxious.
now theory craft us up a tank build =p
She hits hard, but uses a lot of mana.
you should buy more pink wards
Disgusting range n passive, can't wait for next champ
Hi Kyle
pray for the blitz
You sound exactly like Hiccup
1:12 - You know I wasn't interested in on-hit Mel, until you said it couldn't be done. Now I'm curious as to how it could be done, and wondering how many days it would take, to change your mind 🤔
i think he already tried it on zwagmo channel
