Our favorite roamers in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang

"Roamer" is not actually a class in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang like Assassin or Marksman. Rather, it's a hero that’s at their best "roaming" around the battlefield, helping out teammates whenever possible or taking on fiends in the jungle areas. The roamer role can make or break your team on the battlefield.

Some heroes are better suited for roaming responsibilities than others, and this guide will list a few particularly good choices. If you want to see what roaming is all about, take one of these five heroes into your next match and see how they work out for you.

The mummy-like Khufra cuts an imposing figure, and his power is just as frightening. Not only is this Tank good at starting fights, he can also disrupt an enemy push with a single use of his Ultimate ability, Tyrant's Rage, which grabs enemies and pulls them directly where he’s standing.

Khufra launches himself into the fray with his Tyrant's Revenge skill and can block enemies trying to pass through him with his skill, Bouncing Ball. Khufra's abilities allow him to make waves anywhere on the battlefield, so by keeping him moving, you can more easily keep your teammates out of a jam.

At first, Estes's roaming prowess seems like it should come from his passive ability, Scripture of the Moon Elf, which charges his magic over time to enhance his next basic attack. However, while that does allow him to get a good attack in, it's his healing abilities that make him such a potent roamer.

Estes’s Moonlight Immersion ability links with a teammate to heal them over time for as long as the two remain linked. This healing power is expanded with his Ultimate skill, Blessing of Moon Goddess, which extends his healing to every teammate in the vicinity. If you have Estes’s Ultimate ready for a push into an enemy's base, you’ll keep your teammates alive long enough to do some real damage.

Atlas is an ancient sea creature piloting a giant mecha. Not only can Altas eject itself and force the machine to follow, its Ultimate ability, Fatal Links, deals Magic Damage to enemies and slows them down. It's a fun move, but it's not the ability that makes Atlas a formidable roamer – that honor belongs to the passive ability, Frigid Breath.

Whenever you activate one of Atlas’s abilities, a small cloud will remain behind and slow any opponent who comes in contact with it. This means that you can appear behind some opponents during a skirmish, activate any ability you want, and then when the enemies try to retreat, they'll slow down until they’re frozen so you can gain the upper hand.

As a Support hero, Rafaela is a potent healer who provides timely buffs throughout the game, especially with her Holy Healing ability. That said, her moveset has a more offensive slant, allowing her to slow or stun enemies on successful hits, making them easier targets for subsequent attacks.

On top of that, her passive ability, Deity Penalization, can also turn the tide of battle for your team upon her death. Once defeated, Rafaela transforms into a beam of light and charges at the enemy hero who took her down. If the beam of light connects, it deals massive damage – and if the battle is still going on, that hero could end up joining Rafaela in the respawn queue.

Tigreal's massive shield should give you some idea of why he's a great choice for a roamer hero. After a few skill activations or attacks from enemy heroes, his passive ability, Fearless, triggers and he simply blocks the next attack coming his way. This includes turret fire, which could allow him to get the final hit needed to knock it to the ground.

Tigreal's moveset is focused on crowd control, with Attack Wave, which sends shockwaves to hit multiple enemies, and Sacred Hammer, in which he charges enemies and pushes them along with him. Charge in, block a few attacks, and let your teammates do the rest – that’s the ideal strategy for Tigreal.
