The Matthew Ewing Effect is when a player in the MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) game League of Legends will pick a champion that they have seen someone else “go off” with (“Go off” meaning that another player does extremely well with in game) and then proceed to pick that champion thinking that because they have seen that someone else did great with, then they will instantly assume that playing said champion will make their knowledge and ability in the game exceed like the players they have seen play that champion. Most of the time the player will then flame the enemy team (insult and harass them) and / or blame the game that they are performing poorly.
Keep in mind that this definition is mostly targeting newer players in the game because experienced players can probably see someone do good as another champion and pick them up with some ease due to their knowledge. However, new players will do this without the knowledge of the game or champion and will most likely make themselves look like a complete idiot.

A player sees someone use Yasuo (an assassin / fighter character) and go 29/5 (kills to death) and begins to play that champion, only to wonder why they lost in a fight and blame the game or other players when they do not know how to play Yasuo. Thus you would say "Looks like they're Matthew Ewing"

Get the Matthew Ewingmug. A kind of weird guy who smells really bad. He has anger issues and abuses dogs and loves his fake blonde hair. Once you get to know him he’ll probably start cussing you out and make you feel bad about yourself. Some people even say he hasn’t showered in months. Also addicted to fortnite so ladies he’s probably not a good idea

Get the Matthewmug. The name Matthew comes from the bible. A Matthew is usually a "King" in bed and knows how to please a women without trying. He's VERY athletic and very sweet, a matthew also will usually not make friends unless he believes they will be good for him, or help him in the future with problems, matthew also is usually a guy who doesn't get to the point that well but when he does it's a shock that what he said. A Matthew is someone you should stay with forever and never leave and love unconditionally until your last breath. Matthew is amazingly perfect hands down.
Matthew is so perfect.
