Lissandra vs Mel

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Lissandra controls the lane by punishing Mel's low mobility and forcing her to respect W timing.
Maintain medium lane pressure to prevent Mel from safely stacking marks and using R effectively.

Trading pattern

Trade when Mel commits key projectiles into W to reflect damage and root her.
Use W to punish Mel if she tries to trade without W available.
Only use E plus R for lockdown when allies can follow up, avoiding risky solo engages.

Danger windows

Respect Mel's W cooldown; when it is up, avoid throwing key projectiles to prevent damage reflect.
Mel's E root sets up poke; avoid standing still after she uses it to dodge follow-up damage.
When R is down, Lissandra is more vulnerable to Mel's poke and burst attempts.

Early game

Use Q to farm and poke while holding W to root Mel when she tries to engage or trade.
Avoid using E aggressively without follow-up, as Mel can punish predictable engages.
Focus on controlling wave and denying Mel clean E roots to limit her poke setup.

Power spikes

Lissandra's level 6 R is the main power spike for lockdown and self-peel.
Mel's level 6 Mel R is a threat when she has marks and can finish low-health targets.
First completed AP or utility item boosts Lissandra's control and damage potential.

Win conditions

Lock down Mel with W and R when she overextends or is marked for easy follow-up.
Deny Mel's poke by baiting and punishing her W cooldown.
Use E for safe flanks or escapes to create pressure and coordinate ganks or roams with your team.

Tip: For Lissandra vs Mel, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
