There, I said it - Melendor is rubbish 👎

When all you have is a hammer…

… every thing looks like a nail. Including actual nails.

Meanwhile, Melendor is as flimsy as Proteus’ loin cloth.

And it looks like Sabina is much the same.

People get tired of me saying this, but a GOOD 4* 3.60 or 4* 4.70 or 4*+1 rainbow team depends of synergy - effects working well together - Melendor and Sabina and Rigards stat are perfect for the original Wu Kong Cascade Squad.

Notes

@Gryphonknight

Melendor- High attack stat for high board damage- Average mana- Healer keeps Wu Kong alive and the healing part of special skill is unaffected by Gambler’s Stance miss chance.
clone- Sabina
Similar- Boldtusk

Edit 2018-Nov
Rigard and Melendor also work incredibly well when you autoplay seasonal events with Wu Kong. They both have 42% heals, and because they are different colors, their mana bar fills at different rates. Rigard and Sabina do not work as well, since their mana bar fills up at the same rate. Boldtusk and Kiril do not work as well because they only have 27%/ 28% heals.

@Gryphonknight

Sorcerer

Sabina- Can substitute for Melendor on the Cascade Squad ( or swap in versus a yellow / red Titan or Boss ).

Sorcerer can delay enemy buffs, increasing the effectiveness of Sabina’s dispell.

Sabina- Sorcerer - Perfect fit.

Note: I will most like level to Sorcerer 4*+1 Sabina then Ameonna before leveling Sabina from 4*+1 to 4*+19. Delay 3% is a decent first class node, no reason not to give it to Ameonna.
