Mel Build Guide
Mel’s numbers on patch 16.13.1 currently sit at 44.96% winrate with a 2.7% pickrate in the mid lane according to ranked data, though she also sees play in the support role for those wanting a different approach. Arcane Comet complements her ranged poke, adding bonus damage whenever her spells connect from range.
Her build starts with Luden’s Echo to boost wave clear and poke, Shadowflame next to punish low-health targets, and Zhonya’s Hourglass to protect against dive threats. Skill order runs Q, then E, then W, prioritizing her main poke tool early. The full item path, rune page, and matchup notes are available in the breakdown below.
