I always thought Mel’s design was missing something but when she escaped the Black Ross’s trap(?) snd got all that extra gold I was instantly screeching. It was *exactly* what she’d been missing!!
Fellow Annette enjoyer! I can’t believe how much I’ve been starved of black female characters that have extremely powerful cool mystical abilities. I’m loving it.
I think both Ambessa and Mel fall under this- Ambessa is more traditionally powerful but obviously still understands the power of magic (hextech and the arcane) whereas Mel is magically powerful. Obviously them being animated they could have been any skin colour but it is nice to see diversity, it also makes sense lore wise (the Medardas are canonically from the southern region, near what’s called Shurima, a primarily desert country, so the assumption that their skin would be darker makes logically sense, Piltover is inspired by London (see also Caitlyn being British, the academy being alike in style to Oxford and/or Cambridge) and therefore would generally natively not have as many people of colour, other than those who immigrated.
and there was also the one scene where she completely whipped the noxian soldiers with her powers, her adaptation is so quick and cool, one of the many reasons why i love her character
I think she j means that she understands LeBlanc isn’t doing it for Mel’s best interest, just saying that she sees what Leblanc is planning/doing. That’s at least my take on it
"I see you're face, deceiver"
What a line. Could have used more Mel this season....
She'll be front and centre of a Noxus storyline anyway, it's better to let the Piltover/Zaun characters have their stage first.
A lot more.
Really wish it was longer.
Thats what she said
It’s both too short and too long given the length of season 2.
She’s gonna be in the noxus show
Mel is badass, fav Arcane character
Yes!
Nah ur just racist
She would be a great support character with shield and stunning ability
Imagine her shield reflects projectiles
Like that one episode with Maddie shooting Caitlyn
About that, there's been a leak. No clue how reliable it is though
She will be a Mage like Lux I think
It be cool if she glitches others kits like Leblanc said she can manipulate others magic so if you fight her your up is down and left is right 😂
i need a word stronger than MOTHER. I love black women as superheroes or villains, my gawd.

Mel = Art
You could count the end of season 1 and the beginning of season 2 as well because her powers instinctively saved her and Jayce from Jinx's rocket.
I can't get enough of Mel
Especially when she enters the black rose
Badass❤🔥

Jennifer Kale too

Mel played ping pong 🏓 with bullet 😂😂
Mel taking her to the black rose was so insane, like holy! The animations are everything!
First, love Mel Medarda and I can't wait to play her in LoL ❤
You think they will put her in the game?
@@kmallory100 yup, next year Mel become champion LoL
Stood up and cheered when she reflected that bullet
Hope she's gonna feel this majestic when released on League
and there was also the one scene where she completely whipped the noxian soldiers with her powers, her adaptation is so quick and cool, one of the many reasons why i love her character
1:39 very awesome transitions my guy!
When she says she "see your face" does Mel mean she knows who LB is because her ability allows her to "mirror" her target?
I think she j means that she understands LeBlanc isn’t doing it for Mel’s best interest, just saying that she sees what Leblanc is planning/doing. That’s at least my take on it
She's an empath mage, she can feel leblanc's true "face" which is her "true intentions"
@@archangelsamson5295 so she knows who LB is now?
@@toastee5421 emotionally, partly mentally, and intuitively but not exactly her true physical form nor her name
@@archangelsamson5295I think it would be very interesting if Mel is the one character who truly knows her real face now.
I love Mel she is my favorite character in Arcane ❤
You forgot the part where she was seeing the inner weaving of le Blancs spell drawn on the wall.
2:39 *Me speaking in Lilia* when Mel made her entrance: High Priestess! You are the path ahead.
I understood that reference
@@MidnightHaze1313 Well ain't that just like a witch.
I feel like she would be a support who could slow down enemies and deal massive damage with her burst
God Jayce and Mel were so perfect!
0:51 😭 im overthinking it but she sounds like a puppy here and it makes me so sad! But its like, wolf is also puppy?? Im a dork sorry 💀
We're all dorks brother. You're good
Nah it’s fine I see what your saying
I always Keep noticing Why are Sharp objects always someone Threatening the Eye like is this just An Arcane signature
Can you do victor next
Mel should've been made into a champion and not Ambessa 😭😭😭
need an ekko one now
Is that Raven's Sword? At the hand of Ambessa?
@geek marcus Can you do Supergirl from the Legion of Super-Heroes movie that came out last year?
Is thia a movie
No this is a series called arcane, this is a side character called Mel, hope this helps😊
What do we even call her power, shield? I want to know!
It's light.
Hard light constructs
@@joshua2764 so symetra 2.0 lol?
@@atlantikjcx7449Comparing her to Symmetra is crazy. 😭
@ ah yes now I know
It's magic x sorcery, she's supposed to be a witch but she didn't accept black rose's intentions
Looks like the berody in mlbb 😅
I was going to write this too😂😂
LMAO wakanda forever
Why is the Black Rose going for the Black Heroes? Racist Mage
Dont know, ask the story writer or the team that made the design :V
bro lmao
@@JassLJ this is really corny man. Do better.
Its going for the medarda family + its shown to have killed elora, mel's white friend.
Idk why yall bringing race into this in the first place tbh
By going after, do you mean enlist? I’m sure you’re joking, but she’s trying to enlist Mel because of her power, not eliminate.
