Mobile Legends Best Mages
Vale: The Windtalker


Mages in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang are very diverse and have unique abilities and powers that are sure to have you hooked!

This top 10 list will show you the top 10 mages in MLBB in the current patch to help you choose a mage if you’re confused on who to pick up! 

Mages are equipped with high burst damage and crowd control abilities. Some mages are easier to learn than others, but all of them can deal significant damage to the enemies and can turn the tide of battle. Although they are very powerful, they are also quite squishy and are easy to kill. Therefore, it is important for a mage to play smart and position themselves properly to shine. 

Mages are usually in charge of the Mid Lane, but it is not uncommon to have them guard the Gold Lane. There are currently 26 mages in MLBB with all very different playstyles. This tier list will be focusing on mages that guard the Mid Lane or the Gold/Exp Lane. Harley and Selena (jungler mage/assassins) have been included in the Assassins Tier List. 

10. Lylia

Lylia (Mage)

Lylia is a mage that specializes in high burst AOE through explosive bombs. She is especially dangerous during team fights when the enemy team is gathered in one area. She shines in the early game because of her high damage output without the need for her ultimate ability.

Her kit allows her to deal successive explosions that slow the enemies down on top of dealing damage. Lylia can summon four (4) detonatable bombs at a time—this means that when an enemy with low mobility gets cornered by Lylia, they are most likely to lose. Her ultimate ability is useful during team fights as it replenishes her HP and mana while transporting her to her initial position four (4) seconds prior. 

What makes Lylia great?

  • High Damage and Slow Effects
  • Regenerates HP and Mana
  • Can deal damage to multiple enemies at a time

Alice (Mage/Tank)

Her passive takes advantage of lane minions as these increase her HP whenever they die when Alice is nearby. Alice is effective at guarding the Gold or Exp Lanes.

Alice’s abilities are catered towards staying inside team fights. They give Alice mobility because of her teleportation ability, crowd control because of her immobilization skill, and her ultimate ability which damages enemies while restoring her own HP. Her ultimate ability can be used continuously as long as she has mana. Making her a great threat from the Mid-Late game.
