While statistically Mel is slightly stronger than Ezreal as ADC, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.
The magic damage that Mel deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Ezreal has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.
Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Ezreal, ranking 14th (versus 28th for Mel) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.5 versus 2.7) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Mel player to maintain constant pressure on Ezreal, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
