Mobile Legends unleashed earlier this year the second Hero of the Forsaken Light, Melissa, to the Land of Dawn. Melissa is an illegitimate child of a noble who runs a tailor shop and solves problems for people with the power of her cursed needles and dolls. No one can hide from this new Marksman, even the foes lurking from unreachable spots!
How to win in MLBB using Melissa
- Unlock skill 2 at level 1 and go Gold Lane.
- You must use skill 2 to poke enemies in the Laning Phase.
- Smash the "Target Minion" to have the advantage and hit the enemy if the linked enemy is out of range.
- Use Melissa's cooldown advantage when clearing minions or repositioning. Usually, after casting your second skill, you’ll wait for 6s and 2s CD. But if you move away from your doll after casting your second skill, your doll will disappear immediately, and you will be able to use the skill again. But it will drain your mana faster.
- Play very defensively.
- Stick to your lane and get the first two core items.
- Use your Ultimate to escape if the enemy ganks and tower dives in your lane.
- Bait your enemy to get near a wall, use your ultimate to block them, and have a crowd control advantage at team fights.
- Use your second skill to reveal the invisible enemies and enemies inside the bushes.
- Keep an eye out for Zilong, Franco, and any enemies who can pull you out of your Ultimate.
- Make the best placement on casting your second skill in team fights to link your enemies and wipe them out.
Melissa’s Skills / Abilities
Type: Blink
Melissa’s dash skill and attack speed will increase by 75% for 3s. You can use skill 1 to adjust the positions of your skill 2 and skill 3.
Type: Physical Skill
Melissa throws Muddles on the ground, and it lasts for 6s. After hitting a target reaching max distance, this skill lands on the ground and damages nearby targets.
There are 2 circled areas around Muddles. When an enemy hero steps into the smaller circle, they will get linked to Muddles. The Enemy will have to leave the bigger circle to break the link.
The link will slow down the Enemy by 60% for 1.5s.
If you attack a linked target, Muddles will deal the same damage to all linked targets.
If the Enemy is out of your basic attack range, you can attack Muddles to deal damage to linked enemies. When Muddles attack a target, it will reduce skill 1’s cooldown by 1.2s.
The linked effect only works on Enemy heroes, and it doesn’t work on minions/monsters.
Type: Magic Skill
Melissa will create a field around her last 4s. If there are foes nearby, Melissa will use this skill to deal magic damage and push them out of the field.
When this field is active, it will push back and deal damage to enemies trying to enter the field.
Heroes with CC immunity skills can get through this shield. If Melissa leaves the field, it will disappear.
When Melissa’s ultimate is not on CD, she will gain an extra +5 Physical & Magical Defense.
