Yo, there's been a serious meta shift in Mobile Legends with the latest updates. Especially with the changes to the Emblem system and item balance revisions, the flow of the game has completely changed. In the drafts I'm working on with my team, we're now favoring ADC and tank combos over mages because the meta has shifted towards an aggressive playstyle. For example, in the latest patch, the pick rates for Thamuz and Hilda have skyrocketed; these are characters that can be pressured and taken down quickly.
The need for high-survivability heroes has also increased. Previously, we'd experience quick losses where games ended fast, but now games can stretch to 30+ minutes. As a team, we're now prioritizing main tanks (like Grock) and secondary healers (Tekan, Angela) in our drafts. This way, our team's longevity increases, and we can transition into a more controlled playstyle.
Similar strategies are catching on in the community too. For instance, there's more focus on aggressive ganks against non-flying support characters (like Diggie, Pharsa). In drafts, long-range marksmen (Kadita, Nana) are being picked more often over mages. Ultimately, if your team doesn't adapt its strategy to the shifting meta, losing becomes as easy as eating with a spoon.
