Mobile Legends Patch Notes V 1.02.08

Word from Devs

Thank you to all our users for their continual support of Mobile Legends! As always, our official ML team is forever committed to protecting the fairness of our game! We hope that we can provide all our users with a platform for fair competition, whether you are a high division expert, or a newbie just starting out in the lower divisions - in our game you can always meet a competitive opponent at the right level to make each and every battle enjoyable.

Sadly, we have noticed that recently certain users are using malicious means to sabotage this balance, especially by using things like bots or MMR boosting. This has significantly affected the game experience for our wider users who are treating the game seriously.

Therefore, after analysis and internal discussions, we will now be increasing the degree of punishment given to these illegal users, for details please see IV below. At the same time, we will also be monitoring the violation counts regularly, and users who commit multiple offenses will be banned from the game.

IV. New Events and New Features.

Penalty function for AFK behavior – adjustment
a. System now automatically penalizes players with no need to report. In a Ranked or Match Up game, the system can detect when a user is AFK for an extended period of time, and punishment will be applied automatically.
b. Penalties will multiply with repeated offenses. For users found to break the rules repeatedly, we will enforce the strictest punishments. AFK behavior will now be recorded, if multiple offenses are recorded within a short time, your credit score for punishment will also increase by a multiplier. (Hopefully this can also encourage users to resolve poor connectivity problems and avoid joining battles with bad connections)
c. Protective points will be given for low division players who are playing with bots. When you lose because your teammate is a bot, the system will give you extra protective points to give you the maximum cover. However, please note that extra protective points will not be given if your team is prearranged.
d. Reporting system will be more closely monitored. After updating to this version, the review process of the reporting system will become much stricter. We strongly encourage you to work with us and to help clean up our in-game culture, while we will also ensure more timely feedback to user reports.
Newly added recharge reward: 1st time payers who recharge again can receive a reward at the Events page: 1888 BP, 1 Double BP card (3 days), 3 Lucky Tickets, Advanced Skin Trial Card Pack (chance to drop at random a 3 Day Skin Trial Card for either Dragon Knight, Guns and Roses, or Emerald Enchantress)
a. Users who have completed 1st Purchase already will need to update to the new version before recharging to receive the reward
b. Users who have never paid will need to complete and receive the “1st Purchase Reward” before they can proceed to recharge for the above reward
c. There’s no time limit on this event, however each user can only receive the reward once
After updating, the prizes for Magic Wheel will be refreshed: Heroes will changeover to Yi Sun-shin & Bruno; Skin will changeover to Apocalypse Agent. Don’t miss out!
