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. Ewing is the humblest person in Bulukumba, One of his weaknesses, he always laughs in a serious moment but man has been told by many people that his laughs ain’t good. Fortunately, he is the type of guy who can learn from his mistakes very quickly.

Get the Ewingmug. The worst kind of baby killing zionist that uses judaism as a shield, yet would rather use the Torah and Talmud to prop their short ass up a little higher so they have a clear shot of the 12 year old Palistinian can live in a wheelchair.
