An advisor in LoL
According to the latest X-Leaks from LeagueOfLeaks, Mel will be the first new League of Legends champion in 2025.
For those who don't know her yet, watch the two seasons of Arcane on Netflix, you won't regret it, and for the others: Mel Medarda, a Noxian exile, is a key figure in the Piltover Council. Her intelligence and ambition made her an indispensable ally to Jayce Talis in the development of Hextech technology. A former member of the powerful Medarda family, she has left her heritage behind and become a driving force behind innovation in Piltover.
As a reminder, this wouldn't be the first character from the Arcane series to debut
League of Legends. As a reminder, his mother Ambessa Medarda recently appeared in the roster of the Riot Games title with patch 14.22. Don't cry, wolf…become a wolf. This is the motto under which Riot Games presents its new character.
Ambessa Medarda is a Noxian general who embodies brute force and is willing to do anything to defend her family's honor. Determined to start the war between Piltover and Zaun, she comes to the city with a specific goal: to test hextech weapons on the battlefield.
Like mother, like daughter?
With Ambessa, Riot Games offers us a very interesting hybrid champion. Its gameplay, combining the strengths of a thug and an assassin, is surprising. Although its beginnings were somewhat chaotic, it has now proven itself to be a true force on the battlefield.
To get the most out of Ambessa, it's important to understand its passive. This dash, triggered with every skill use, gives him mobility comparable to that of champions like Kalista or Sylas. A significant advantage that can make a decisive difference, especially in the most intense phases of the game.
But then what could we expect from his daughter Mel? There are many theories floating around that point to a powerful hextech kit with shields, area damage, and even a long range beam. It is common practice at Riot to use symbols of other champions as models when developing. With Mel we find elements of Kennen and Lux, suggesting different abilities with a mix of AOE and ranged damage.
Although unofficial, the prospect of Mel Medarda arriving as a mage in Summoner's Rift is greatly exciting the community. His arcane charisma makes him a natural choice to join the League of Legends roster, strengthening the connection between the two universes.
As a reminder, the two seasons of the hit Netflix series Arcane are fully available on the SVOD platform.
