Sivir vs Mel Counter Pick

Rebuttal settles more of these matchups than any raw stat comparison. It sends enemy projectiles back at whoever fired them, and both Boomerang Blade and Ricochet’s bouncing shots count. A Sivir who keeps throwing attacks into the barrier ends up dealing damage to herself. Knowing when to hold fire against that barrier is the core test here, and across 579 recorded games on patch 16.13.1, Sivir still wins 54.4% of the time.

Part of the reason is that Mel has to show her hand first. Searing Brilliance adds bonus projectiles to her next attack after any ability, so her damage rhythm is easy to read. Solar Snare is her only hard control, a single cast that Spell Shield can absorb, turning it into health and speed for Sivir. Early on Mel is the bulkier body, 630 health to 600, yet Sivir has 30 armor to Mel’s 21 and moves at 335 against 330, and Fleet of Foot widens that gap each time Sivir hits a champion. Mel’s attack range is 550 to Sivir’s 500, a 50-unit edge that lets her apply pressure first. Golden Eclipse detonates Overwhelm stacks from any distance, so a sloppy disengage gets punished, and retreating hurt is not automatically safe. By the end Mel sits at 2,313 health and Sivir at 2,368. Difficulty is rated 5 for Mel and 4 for Sivir, and both rely on mana. Champion pages: Sivir, Mel.
