"The W should never have been put on a ranged champion, for example."

Former Lol designer Nick Fridge 🇺🇸 shares his thoughts on Mel:
"Everything about Mel, I think is not constructed correctly. The W should never have been put on a ranged champion, for example."
"If that W was going to be in the game, it should have gone on a melee who had very limited other defensive tools, for example."
"It's a very cool W, and I think that it can exist in League, but it shouldn't be on a ranged champion and it definitely shouldn't be on a ranged champion that does not ever have to expose themselves to risk."
"Imagine if that W was on Vex or something like that. At least Vex has a reason why she cares about going in melee range of someone and exposing herself to risk. Even though Vex is ranged."
"Mel is the opposite of that. There's no reason for her ever to get close to people to interact with them."
"[...] I think the unfortunate part about Mel is that on an individual case-by-case basis, every one of the spells on her kit I think is actually pretty cool and could be a part of a really good kit."
"It's the combination of the spells that she has and especially the W being on a very high range, very high safety profile."View quoted post on X
