Mobile Legends: Bang Bang

Strategy. Teamwork. Legends.

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang is the dominant MOBA on mobile. 5v5 team battles, 100+ unique heroes, and a fast-paced ranked ladder that breeds elite competitive play across Southeast Asia and beyond.

About Mobile Legends: Bang Bang

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) is the premier competitive MOBA on mobile, commanding over 100 million active players globally, with the strongest scenes in Southeast Asia, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia. Moonton has turned MLBB into a legitimate esport — the M-Series World Championship draws millions of viewers. MLBB gameplay revolves around five players selecting from 100+ heroes — each with unique abilities — to destroy the enemy's base (Nexus/Core). Roles include tank, fighter, assassin, mage, marksman, and support. Coordinated team composition and draft phase strategy are as important as in-match execution. At Starfire, we host MLBB tournaments that begin with a draft phase, making hero bans and picks a key competitive element. This adds a strategic layer that separates Starfire MLBB cups from casual scrimmages.
