Who Wins
- You win level 2 all-ins with Karma's E shield and movement speed enabling aggressive positioning, but struggle with Mel's superior poke range.
- At level 6, you gain kill pressure with R repositioning, though Mel's execute ultimate becomes dangerous if you're low.
Synergy & Trading
- Use W to poke when Mel uses abilities and is on cooldown, then look for E+Karma E all-ins when her W barrier is down.
- Focus on short trades using your passive stacks rather than extended fights where Mel can stack Overwhelm.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Let Karma manage the wave early while you focus on farming safely and avoiding Mel's Q poke, then look to freeze near your tower.
- Once you have items, you can match their push with Q evolution waveclear.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't engage when Mel has W available since she can reflect your W poke and gain positioning advantage.
- Avoid extended trades where Mel can stack multiple Overwhelm applications on you, as her execute threshold becomes dangerous.
