MLBB New 1v1 Mode: What We Know So Far

Over the years, Mobile Legends Bang Bang has made a name for itself as one of the best 5v5 strategic team fight games. From introducing new heroes to the players to making consistent tweaks to improve the game for the better, we have come a long way with the game. Whether you are a marksman, tank, mage, or fighter, since its inception, the 5v5 battles have been the tradition of the game. Whether a quick game before getting on with your day or grinding out with your friends every night, the game has something for everyone.

However, Mobile Legends Bang Bang is set to introduce one of the seismic changes into the game in the form of MLBB New 1v1 Mode. But how will it work with multiple roles in the game for different characters? We have all the answers for you!

In this post, we will take a look at everything we know about the new MLBB 1v1 Mode so far.

MLBB New 1v1 Mode: The Layout of the Map

One of the biggest highlights of the Mobile Legends Bang Bang new 1v1 Mode is that the map will be a single-lane map. There will be one base on each side, and the bushes in the single lane are kept to a minimum where it makes sense. The bushes are arranged in a way that the players can hide and ambush to kill the opponent or destroy the tower.

MLBB New 1v1 Mode: Can there be any draw?

Given this is 1v1, one of the biggest questions among the players is whether any fight can be a draw.

Well, it is a little complicated. Unless it is a deciding point of the match, if both of the characters fight and faint simultaneously, both of them will get a point from the duel. However, when it is the deciding point, i.e., if both of you have 2 points each and just need 1 point to win the match, only one of you will be chosen as the winner.

MLBB New 1v1 Mode: Can you go beyond the Map?

In the MLBB New 1v1 Mode, while you cannot go beyond the map with your characters' default form, if you use the special abilities of the heroes, you can go beyond the outlines of the map. You can even use this to ambush your opponents and catch them off guard.

However, it is not clear whether it will stay in the game, given that it seems like a glitch rather than a feature.

MLBB New 1v1 Mode: No Walls

Other than the outlines of the MLBB New 1v1 Mode map, there are no walls in the single-lane map. Naturally, the heroes who use the walls to take part in the combat will have no role in the game. Therefore, it is suggested you avoid such heroes (like Ling, for example) when you are playing the MLBB New 1v1 Mode. If you’re unsure which heroes to pick for this style of play, the Mobile Legends Guide can help you identify the best options that don’t rely on walls for mobility or surprise attacks.

MLBB New 1v1 Mode: No Healing

Unlike the traditional 5v5 map, where you can heal in your base, in the new 1v1 mode of MLBB, the heroes are not able to heal themselves. Once you take damage, it sticks to you.

Recall is almost the same, as you do not truly get recalled into the base. The animation takes place, and once it is done, you stay at the same spot.

Keeping this in mind, in the MLBB New 1v1 Mode, if you can avoid the tower with your hero, you can ambush your opponent at their base and take the fight. You also cannot surrender in this format. You would have to battle it out as a winner needs to be decided.
