Melissa was one of the most popular heroes chosen as a gold laner in MPL Season 11. As a hero who led ONIC to victory in the tournament, we have compiled three hero counters for Melissa below.
In terms of appearance, Melissa's strength lies in the use of her dolls Muddles and Cuddles, which can inflict painful damage on her opponents.
In addition to attacking with Muddles, Melissa also receives additional protection from her Cuddles, which can create an extra shield when Melissa is attacked by her opponents.
To stop Melissa's dominance in the gold lane, we have compiled three hero counters dominated by marksmen with high attack speed to penetrate Melissa's shield.
1. Wanwan

The second hero counter for Melissa is Lesley. This hero has a burst damage type that can inflict painful attacks on Melissa. When in the same lane, Lesley can send poke damage to Melissa, causing her trouble.
Another advantage of Lesley is the long-range of her attacks, allowing her to shoot from areas that are out of reach of her opponents.
3. Moskov

A high attack speed hero like Moskov can be relied upon to counter Melissa. This hero can directly send damage towards Melissa's puppet that has been protecting her.
Moskov's skill combo can be effectively utilized to trouble Melissa when her two main puppets have disappeared.
This marksman hero lineup can be used to defeat Melissa. Hence, it is mandatory to use the counter hero when facing her.
