How to play Melissa

Melissa is dangerous shooter, but the protective field makes her unique among other similar heroes. To get the most out of a character, you need to train and understand the situation on the battlefield well. The gameplay can be divided into three stages, and then each of them will be analyzed.

Beginning of the game

At the initial levels, unlock the second skill, and then the first. Use the first ability to get close to the enemy and use the second ability to bind the enemy to the doll, then use basic attacks. Don't get aggressive until Melissa unlocks her ultimate. Use your ultimate ability to defend yourself from enemies.

Mid game

It is necessary to maintain a combination of aggressive and cautious style while playing in this phase. Always keep an eye on the map and move around to help your teammates in killing the turtle, lord and enemy characters.

During teamfights, look for the right opportunity to engage and don't forget to use your ultimate to block incoming enemies. After that, activate the first skill to change position. With superior mobility and ultimate defense, Melissa plays a big role in small team fights in the mid game. At this stage, it is necessary to destroy as many enemy defensive towers as possible.

late game

This is the moment in the game when you need to be very careful in positioning. Once Melissa gathers the bulk of her gear, she will be able to deal an insane amount of damage to the enemies she binds with her second skill. In conjunction with good tank this hero can quickly eliminate enemies from the rear, and her ultimate will help to avoid crowd control effects and get rid of unwanted damage.

You can also steal the Lord with the help of a well-timed use of your ultimate, which will knock the enemy character back so that he cannot finish him off. Try split-pushing after defeating the Lord, don't let him just die.
