Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) is a dynamic multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game where two teams of five players compete to destroy each other's base. Players must choose from a wide selection of heroes, employ strategic thinking, and join a lively community for a truly engaging experience. This guide covers the game's fundamentals—hero roles, core mechanics, winning strategies—and shows you how to obtain the new hero Kalea at no cost. New players can also refer to our Beginner’s Game Guide.
Hero Roles
A solid grasp of hero roles is vital to building a well-rounded team and developing winning strategies. In MLBB, heroes are grouped into six main categories:
Tank:
Durable heroes who soak up damage and shield their allies.
Fighter:
Versatile characters with balanced offensive and defensive skills, ideal for close-quarters combat.
Assassin:
Burst damage specialists who swiftly take down high-priority enemy targets.
Mage:
Long-range magic users, often wielding powerful area-of-effect spells.
Marksman:
Ranged damage dealers who provide steady physical damage, becoming especially powerful in the late game.
Support:
Heroes that help the team through healing, buffs, or crowd control. To learn how to excel as a Support, see our Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Support Guide.
A balanced team composition with a variety of roles boosts coordination and performance during matches.
