  • Mobile Legends: Bang Bang is a MOBA developed and published by Moonton. After launching in 2016, the title became popular in several countries across Asia and started to dominate the mobile market.
    Despite their success, Moonton has also been met with criticism for taking a bit too much "inspiration" from League of Legends which eventually resulted in Riot Games and its parent company, Tencent, launching a now-infamous copyright infringement lawsuit.

    Do you think Mobile Legends has the staying power to compete with WIld Rift or is Riot Games a few years too late to the party?

      Riot is definitely late to the party tbh, and ML will definitely stay and both will be competing probably for a long time.
      ML has basically become a household name in the Philippines. If you were a filipino, theres a chance your dad your uncle, your aunt has been playing it. But even if they havent theyll definitely have heard of it, because of how popular it is in SEA region.
      And we all know that the main reason ML is so popular cuz again Wild Rift is late to the party, where as back then mobile gaming was popping off due to the simple fact most people had a phone, and did not have a computer. And in the philippines mostly cuz most filipinos have a love for MOBAs, (since DOTA) and trends always spread like wildfire in PH so put that two and two together and it ended up having a rip off to make lots of money. So that platform barrier was a big problem I guess.
      But anyways yeah thats me speaking for my country, and tbh ML can be fun, when your playing it with family, and not getting toxic teammates and toxic enemies and being hardstuck EPIC V for a year, lmao.

Those skins that they gave away because they are "generous" is because its holiday season. The whole year they gave like 1-2 skins that looks shit. That's the event you get from the game, not until wild rift is released. After i quit the the game for wild rift, they gave away fcking epics skins for the cost of 1 diamond, at least its good for the loyal players for the game, they got rewarded.

      ​@@riccardopilu4234+ a lot of players now have brand affinity. They're used to mlbb's style and speed, and are unwilling to have to adapt to wild rift's slower gameplay. Moreover, MOBA games are very much a social game to be played with friends, and if anyone in south east asia changed to wild rift most of the people they usually play with aren't following, so they end up staying in mlbb simply because thats where most of the players nearby them are. It would be pretty damn hard to pry entire friend groups off of mlbb all at once to move them to wild rift.

      On ml vs others moba. The fact that ml already on the scene since the begining of mobile games(smartphone) 5 years ago make the player based already big. People played moba with friend and some people spend a lots of money for cosmetic. Changing to others so called better game(lolwr) make them need to grind back the hero and skin plus converting ur friend to played the game is a hard task. I end up playing mlbb back after 3 month playing lolwr alone without my go to squad.
      The gameplay pace and meta is soo different. it is easier to get snowball in lolwr because of the smaller maps(easier to gank). I preferred mlbb way of all hero is broken compare to lolwr which is u are fuck when u core shit.

    The reality most moba players just play casually during breaks from work or after work.
    Wildrift 's average game time is around 20-25mins meanwhile other mobas average 10-12mins. Not to mention the time for drafting. The time difference alone will turn off most of them.
    Like myselft, i played dota1, 2 and lol in my elem-college years and i don't have problem if the games took 1hr each but now as a working adult i just don't have the time. I felt the progress was slow when it comes to playing wildrift.

    I think the key point here is potencial. Riot is a juggernaut that could be out to dominate the market just like MLBB has done for a long time... but it has been slower than expected. Many content creators that switched right away to WR because of the foretold wave of players in this new game have now switched back to ML as the views decreased their numbers. Same with players that hoped for a similar casual experience in WR and found a slower, more calculated playstyle. After playing both games and liking them for different reasons, I can only hope for Riot to keep on their investment in the mobile MOBA market and improve their game; more champions, permanent ARAM and more. The buyer always win when companies compete for their attention and it has been long enough for ML to be without a rival (other mobile MOBAs, while good, can just dream of having the same amount of players). This goes beyond the discussion of "was MLBB a copy of LoL?" because everyone knows the answer to that and, thankfully, I can say the game has mostly grown out of that

      Nope, Riot did nothing wrong. As a big company, they always have the power to take over the gaming market. By coming late, they can study the pros and cons of their compotitor and they can make a good strategy to beat the competitor. Also, if they start getting into mobile games in the beginning they would risk going into a market they never knew would work out. By letting other smaller developer building the mobile phone gaming community first, they can eliminate risk of needless failure. And now when they feel like the market is big enough, they can go into the market with solid srategy and starting to take over the market from the smaller dev.

    I played LoL for about 4 years (PC Version) while most of my friends played ML. And so I got interested and my friends introduced it to me. That's when I decided to quit LoL and continue ML since I just kept playing and got more interested. And then WR came out and I played a bit, it wasn't the same feeling as ML which was more relaxing and fast paced I just couldn't play
    LoL (WR) like before since I got so used to ML. And in my opinion Riot should've arrive earlier than Moonton in the mobile gaming market. Players nowadays will play ML more since its been years since they have played ML, plus they wont quit since they spent so much money on this game. If WR came sooner they could've destroyed ML and none of the drama could've happened. I mean the only reason why people are giving so much attention to ML because Riot released a new Moba game that's on mobile, they're only attentive now because ML grew larger than WR did and of course if you play WR you wouldn't want to see WR that has small groups of people.

    Riot still at heart an American company despite that their shares are almost fully owned by a Chinese company. What I'm saying is they have live in a strong mantra of "If ain't broke, don't fix it.". They think PC gaming is still relevant for next year's to come, money always flows passively through their success and thinking their own self is the only ones they could beat and everything was just irrelevant topic. Their arrogance and the elitism mindset of their community (leading to keeping the good stuffs to themselves instead of expanding it in an inclusive level) is their own Trojan horse.

    The reason why ML is so popular in SEA is because, most of their players do not have high-end phones. To play Wild Rift, you have to have an above mid-range smartphone to completely enjoy the game whilst in ML, it can run on low-end phones and consumes less data. The matches in ML are quick, it’s easier to play and understand so it attracts casual MOBA players or even attracts people who do not even play video games, just because it’s so easy to play plus it’s fun.

    In PH And Indonesia its really hard to break away the ML culture since of it's time spent and all the money invested into it. Also, why would. They switch to WR? If they switch, their friend group is still on ML and wont break until they pull each and one of them away from ML. The casual style of ML is what keeps it afloat by playing it every now and then since it's fast paced and usually ends around ~20 minutes in time.

    I'm from Myanmar. I play both MLBB and Wild Rift. Nearly everyone plays Mobile Legends here. They know no other MOBAs than MLBB. So the community here is big. MLBB is beginner friendly, kid friendly and you can play casually. The girls who never play other games even play MLBB. You can even get a relationship playing game. For those reasons MLBB will still be the most played game in my region. Plus wildrift players are toxic. Whenever they play with new player, instead of teaching and warning, they keep insulting with strong language. It's all about community.

So ML just eventually became the only option we had. Overtime, most just stuck with it like me plus with LoL (PC) fanbase keep raiding the community, a some sort of loyal fan base had been in placed ever since.

      MLBB is basically a brawl mode with 3 lanes, like a battle royal type of match. Yes MLBB is easier but not better because MLBB lacks so many mechanics like wave management, trading, CS and many more, you are used to playing 15-20 minutes brawl like matches of pure chaos and carnage while having 0 mechanics to actually play. In LOL 15-20 minutes is just the end of the laning phase.
      In short
      MLBB is a game of guess where everything Is guess due to it's lack of mechanics, if you guessed right then you are rewarded but if you guessed wrong then you are punished, that's why one good/dumb teammate have a lot of effect on flow on the match, one good teemate can carry the game all by himself while one dumb teamate can easily drag his whole team down, in LOL it doesn't matter if the player is good because he still needs items to start carrying the game, that is why it is called a 5v5 mobs because you need your team to win the game.
      LOL and WR is an actual chess match due to its complicated mechanics, to the point that a good placement of a single ward can mean life and death or a single minion can win you the lane and many more stuff that ML players don't understand because like I said ML is basically a brawl mode with 3 lanes they are used to that battle royal type of match,
      That's why MLBB is more fun for kids like you and for the noobs ones because the learning curve to actually play the game is so low compared to LOL and WR learning curve where it is steap due to its complicated mechanics.

    For playing both League of Legends and Mobile Legends Bang Bang, I'm willing to say that MLBB is arguably thousand times more accessible compared to LOL. The graphics and general interface are simpler and less confusing to use. The overall teamfights and skills animation are more appealing to the mediocre public as it's much easier to understand what's going on. From a more subjective stand point, MLBB is way more fun to play compared to LOL. There is no useless complexity of buying wards and consumables just to stay on lane. Having vision is crucial in a MOBA game and MLBB is leading to a lot of action to gain this advantage. In the other hand, I have the feeling that rarely does anyone leave lane to make a play instead of farming and bait each other in mid at late game.

    People want a competitive environment, that's true, but in mobile games, pacing is important. A huge chunk of mobile gamers are busy doing something else. Riot focused more on competitiveness rather than pacing. Most Wild Rift players are either teenagers, or people younger than 30. In other words, people that have a lot of time in their hands. Why? Because of the pacing. Most of the working class prefer a faster pace due to their busy schedule. I myself am a father of 2 kids, has a job as an executive assistant to the director of our company, and also host a youtube channel, Wild Rift is amazing as a game in general, but does it appeal to a wide audience? It does, but not as much as ML. A regular game in WR will take between 20 to sometimes even 40 minutes to wrap up, while ML takes between 9 to 30 minutes. You may think eh, it's just a 5 to 10 minute difference, well, imagine you only having 1 hour a day to play because of your other responsibilities, how many games can you play? Probably 1 to 2 for WR. With ML, 1 hour will get you 2 to 3 games especially when you get to the higher ranks where people focus more on strategy and winning the game fast same as how Heroes of the Storm is played.
    Basically what happened is, a huge chunk of the playerbase in WR are already League fans, while in ML, a lot of them were not even MOBA players to begin with. That's how perfect ML was on the mobile platform.
    Is ML a better game in general? Definitely NOT! Is it a fun game though? Yes it is. And let's face it, most people aren't after the bragging rights, a lot of them are just after the fun. They want to let out some steam and chip off a few minutes during their break time, or while their kids are asleep, etc.
    Competitively, content-wise, and quality, definitely WR is amazing! Since VG is gone, it's safe to say that this is now the best mobile MOBA, can it defeat ML in the market though? I doubt. Chances are, both games will remain for a very very long time. And who knows, in the future, Tencent might be able to finally buy Moonton(Tencent placed a bid to buy Moonton with the intent of turning it to Riot 2.0 but lost to Bytedance), and we might just have the WR x ML game that will surprise the world.

    I was already an ML player for a year when I tried switching to WR because I have heard many good things about it. I, of course, started in a low rank, but the amount of gatekeeping ang toxicity in WR made me leave. I was literally a beginner trying to start learning a game which interested me a lot. Although it is also an issue of time, as WR is significantly late to the market, its player base imo also played a role on the slow acceptance of WR in the PH and neighbouring countries, esp to the niche ML players. I'm just happy now that I've stayed in ML. It's not as bad as everyone says, plus it's good for me who cant afford a non-potato phone and doesnt have much time to play excruciatingly long matches in other games. I think most WR loyalists just talk trash about ML because they're salty, but still keep on gatekeeping their game too much.

      As a Filipino, this is true to me and my friends too. DOTA was king. When LoL came out, it was derided as a Dota ripoff for players with LESS skill. The deny mechanic was a big sore point for hardcore Dota players. The release of Dota 2 just reinforced that belief (that LoL was for gamers who can't make it in Dota).
      Now though? LoL has deviated enough that it's an entirely different game with a different playstyle/meta. It even has a big following in the Philippines now. I can respect that. But the hordes of LoL fans trashing ML are a bit misguided. Deny it all you want, LoL is a ripoff too.
      Fact of the matter is, Moonton came early to the markets starving for a mobile MOBA. While Riot sat on their hands about mobile gaming.
      I'm not saying this is true for everyone, but as someone in living in SEA, My games are DOTA 2 and Mobile Legends. LoL is irrelevant to me.

    Although I'm not a big moba fan, I have played both MLBB and WR, and I got to say that I've had a better experience with MLBB. The one thing I really liked about it but I couldn't stand in WR is something as small as movement speed. In MLBB your movement speed is much faster than WR, and most characters in MLBB have some form of a dash move. This makes it to where games at most last 20 minutes with a lot of games in the higher ranks lasting only about 10-12 minutes. WR felt so slow in comparison that I got bored extremely quickly, also I didn't really like the muted colors.
