It's safe to say that Mobile Legends is one of the fastest growing mobile app currently in the market. With the community ballooning at an astounding rate, rising to the competitive ladder becomes a lot harder by the minute, which brings today's topic: how exactly can one rise to the competitive ladder?

Map Awareness

One of the most used features in MOBAs is the minimap. This simple map, albeit small, provides a huge impact on the game as it gives the player a rough overview of the situation. Players that frequently check their minimap tend to avoid ganks more often. Furthermore, map awareness gives the player hint if the enemy team is trying to split push, taking objectives, etc.

Meta Heroes

While it's imperative that the player should learn as many heroes as he possibly can, it's always wise to master the meta heroes as it significantly improves the player's chances of securing victory. It's safe to say that no matter how hard the developers will try to balance the game out, there will always be instances where one hero stands out from the rest. Mastering these heroes helps one to rise in the competitive ladder. Examples of the meta heroes today are Fanny, Kaguya and Chou.

Roaming

Roaming is an important factor in Mobile Legends. Since the game is inclined to a much faster paced than Dota and League of Legends, it's vital to secure early advantage as much as possible. The current state of the game is that, whichever team that dominates in the early stages (laning phase), steamrolls the entirety of the match. So basically, one must learn how to improve roaming skills and secure early kills particularly in the midlane. Not only does this gives the team a head start, it also "tilts" the enemy team.

Spells

One of the best spells in the game is Purify mainly because it allows players to play super aggressively - dashing into the fights without the fear of getting disabled and die instantly. Furthermore, Purify is one of the best defensive spells in the game - it can be used to bait enemies for a huge counterplay. In most cases, one should opt for the Purify spell over any other spells.

Tilting

One of the best ways to secure victory is to disrupt the enemy team's coordination and overall game plan. The best method to do so is to tilt one or two opposing players by means of constantly ganking them, taunting, etc. The player that's being attacked psychologically will likely to cause disarray to their team - tilting everyone in the process. Another form of tilting someone is by verbally attacking them especially upon making a misplay. The latter, however, isn't advocated as it can get the player banned via the report system.
