Key takeaways
- Current data slightly favors Mel, but the sample is too limited for a strong conclusion: Mel wins 53.7% of 54 games (95% range 40.6–66.3%).
- Both champions' overall Mid win rates predict 49.1% for Mel; the result is within the margin of error of that, so this matchup mostly reflects the two champions' general strength.
- Fizz usually wins the lane: 619 gold ahead of Mel at 15 minutes on average (52 games with a 15-minute snapshot).
- Mel players pick Shadowflame much less often against Fizz: 72.7% of their other Mid games, 53.7% here.
How we calculate this
Games: ranked Solo/Duo and Flex games on the North America server from the patch shown. Remakes (games under 5 minutes) are excluded.
A game only counts when Mel and Fizz played the same position on opposite teams, so roaming, lane swaps within a team or a champion merely being in the same game never count as this matchup.
The 95% range is a Wilson score interval. Confidence comes from how wide that range is: within ±3 points is very high, ±5 high, ±8 moderate, anything wider low. Below 20 games a matchup is not classified at all.
Expected win rate combines both champions’ win rates in this lane (same games and filters) with the log5 formula: E = A(1−B) / (A(1−B) + B(1−A)). Matchup effect = observed − expected.
"What changes" compares Mel's choices in this matchup with the same champion's other games in the same lane, and lists a change only when it is at least 3 points and statistically significant (two-proportion z-test, |z| ≥ 2, 20+ games).
Results are not split by rank: the sample per rank is too small for honest per-rank matchup numbers.

Best Mel Build vs Fizz
Usual Mel build (Mid)
75.0% win rate · 16 games
Against Fizz
Not enough matchup-specific build data: only 7 of 25 Mel games against Fizz carried a complete build, which is too few to recommend an item path from. Use Mel's standard build instead.
- Mel usually completes Luden's Echo first, at 12.1 min (median of 36 games).
- Fizz usually completes Lich Bane first, at 10.7 min (median of 34 games).
- Skill priority: Q > E > W — the same as usual.
Builds are ranked by the lower edge of their win rate range, not the raw win rate, so a build seen in a handful of wins never outranks a proven one.
