Mel vs Lissandra Matchup Summary
The Mel vs Lissandra matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 37 recent matches analyzed, Lissandra wins with a 56.8% win rate compared to Mel's 43.2%, giving Lissandra a 13.5 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Mel controls the early laning stage, but Lissandra outscales as the game goes longer.
