Patch 26.22 Preview! Hearts go out to Cyanide and saddened to hear of his passing 😭; on top of being an incredible player, he was a super funny guy and many of his quotes are legendary. He will be missed :( Mel - Mel's mini-update will be Live on Patch 26.22 - When we released Mel, we intentionally went for a new ability that was pretty ambitious; we like to try to push the boundaries with new champions and mechanics to give players new puzzles to solve with each release - After being on Live for a while, it's clear that many players feel that Mel's reflect was too frustrating to play against - There are things in League that are allowed to be frustrating, as that can create a feeling of triumph when overcoming it and challenging players to grow, but there are some things that are too frustrating even given those upsides - Realistically, every champion should have something that they do uniquely that other players might feel is frustrating - So we're reworking Mel's W to keep the feeling of destroying projectiles, but not have it hard counter some subsets of the roster - We tried many versions of Mel's W that tried to retain the reflect, but we couldn't find one that would hit the mark for Mel players and would be satisfactory for opponents - We know this is disappointing for Mel players and we're sorry we couldn't uphold this end of the contract with you all - That said, we hope this will allow Mel to be balanced at relatively higher resting power levels and be more effective for Mel players Systems - Overlord's Bloodmail has been pretty weak overall and it's pretty hard bound to Sett as currently tuned - We're looking to try to buff this for other users who should be interested in an item that converts Health to Damage (Mundo, Sion), but some aspects of the item make it too Sett skewed [eg. the missing HP portion] - Doran's Bow has been a bit too strong relative to Doran's Blade, especially at higher levels of play - So we're looking to balance out the relative tradeoffs of the items a bit - We're overall happy wtih the direction of how the tradeoffs are playing out though! Just that the magnitude is a bit off
