Mobile Legends Patch 1.9.50 brings hero revamps for Gloo and Hanzo, buffs for Leomord and Kalea, and nerfs for Rafaela, Granger, and Selena. Key equipment changes and battlefield adjustments aim to reshape the MLBB meta.
With the release of Patch 1.9.50, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang has included major overhauls for some heroes along with reworks on their equipment, to make such Tanks really effective in battle. It is aimed at equalizing the gameplay between heroes. Here’s a detailed breakdown.
Hero Revamps and Adjustments
Revamped Heroes
-
Gloo (Buffed): A visual upgrade and optimized skill mechanics improve Gloo’s gameplay. Skill 2 now spreads forward in a fan-shaped area, while the Ultimate directly attaches to targets with maximum passive stacks, removing the Phase 1 split effect.
-
Hanzo (Adjusted): Hanzo’s Attack Speed and Crit builds have been balanced. Key adjustments include reduced Physical Attack Growth (11.45 → 8) and altered damage scaling for Skill 1 and Skill 2.
Buffs
-
Leomord: Increased Human Form Skill 1 damage against high-HP targets and faster Barbiel movement speed in his Ultimate make him more viable in battles.
-
Kalea: Enhanced survivability with a revamped Passive that heals both Kalea and the ally with the lowest HP.
Nerfs
-
Rafaela: Resurrection cooldown increased significantly (45s → 80s).
-
Granger: Reduced Ultimate damage, though attack equipment scaling has been slightly increased.
-
Selena: Previous buffs to Skill 1 and Skill 2 (Elven Form) were partially reverted to curb her overwhelming power.
Battlefield and Equipment Changes
Battlefield Adjustments
-
The Lord’s HP and Physical Defense growth have been increased by 15% and 20%, respectively, ensuring it remains a formidable challenge in mid-to-late games.
Equipment Updates
-
Cursed Helmet (Buffed): Enhanced damage output and a new passive that reduces nearby targets’ Hybrid Defense by 10.
-
Radiant Armor (Buffed): Faster stack cooldown (0.6s → 0.4s) improves its effectiveness against sustained Mage damage.
-
Brute Force Breastplate (Buffed): Improved Adaptive Attack per stack (6 → 8), enhancing its appeal for agile Fighters.
