A mischievous troublemaker.

Gloo gets banned sometimes, especially right after he was released. The recent update changed his first skill. Now, the cooldown will reset whenever you detonate the goo by walking on it.

High mobility
Fast cooldown skill
Can be an offlaner

Make sure you killed the real Hanzo and not just his soul!

Hanzo is one of the most favorite picks because of his fast-farming skills. He can easily eat a jungle monster with his skill, giving him an advantage against other junglers.

His ultimate makes Hanzo leave his body to attack enemies. Only the left-behind body can get him killed, so this can be a solid skill to cast, especially against heroes with slow mobility. Hanzo is best used for chasing down damage dealers and for poking enemies during a team fight. You don’t have to worry about getting hunted down because you can just leave your body in the bush, then attack your opponents!

Farms quickly

5. Natan

The time-traveler marksman.

Natan is one of the top picks in the Mobile Legends because he deals a tremendous amount of damage. He is even often banned during picking because no one wants to go against him!

He also has his own crowd control skills, so Natan does not have to always depend on his allies when attacking.

Deals high amount of damage
High attack speed and movement speed
