The Rise of the Gold Lane King: Oheb's Dominance in 2024 Gold lane is war. If you’ve ever played Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) competitively — or even just solo ranked — you’d understand how brutal the gold lane can be. It’s a one-on-one, sometimes do-or-die situation that can decide the outcome of a game in just minutes. And in 2024, no one mastered that battlefield better than Kiel Calvin “Oheb” Soriano . As a long-time MLBB fan, I’ve watched many gold laners come and go. Some are flashy. Some are safe. Others are aggressive to the point of recklessness. But Oheb? He was clinical — a marksman with the soul of an assassin. Let me tell you the story of how Oheb became the undisputed best gold laner in the Philippines in 2024 — a journey full of grit, patience, precision, and pure passion. The Gold Lane: A Test of Skill and Mentality Before we get into Oheb’s rise, let’s talk about the gold lane itself. The gold lane is for marksmen or mages , and it's designed to le...

The Best Jungler in the Philippines (2024): Who Dominated the Meta? If 2023 was wild for MLBB junglers, 2024 was a battlefield of precision, aggression, and fast decision-making. As someone who plays solo queue almost daily and follows the PH esports scene religiously, I’ve seen how the jungle meta has shifted — and who truly reigned supreme. From flashy assassins to reliable tanky cores, 2024 showcased a wide range of viable jungle heroes. But among all the contenders, one name consistently stood above the rest — Martis .

The Best Mage Heroes in Mobile Legends 2023: Who Ruled the Midlane? If you were part of the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) scene in 2023 — whether casually playing with friends or grinding the solo queue — you’d know that 2023 was a crazy year for mage mains. The meta constantly shifted, assassin dives became more brutal, and roamers turned more aggressive. But in the heart of every game, there was still one hero that dictated the pace: the mage. As a dedicated mage main since 2019 (yes, I was that annoying Gord spamming lasers), I’ve seen mages come and go — from OP picks to forgotten benchwarmers. But 2023 stood out as a year of intelligent positioning, spellburst dominance, and fast rotations. In this post, let me take you through the best mage heroes of 2023 , based on real experience, community picks, and solid performance in ranked and pro scenes. 1. Valentina – The Meta Shifter No question about it: Valentina was the queen of the midlane in 2023. Her unique ability to ...

The Reign of Nana: The Most Used Hero in MLBB 2023 When you think of the most used heroes in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang , your mind probably goes straight to the flashier, high-skill-cap favorites like Lancelot, Chou, or Ling. But 2023? It was Nana’s year. Yes — Nana , the mischievous and adorable Feline Wizard, ruled the Land of Dawn not by sheer power alone, but by her unique playstyle, surprising effectiveness, and frustrating Molinas that turned enemy assassins into helpless plushies. I didn’t want to believe it either at first, but the data and the gameplay told the same story: Nana became the most used hero in MLBB throughout 2023 . Let me tell you why — and how I personally got swept up in the Nana hype too. My First Time Playing Nana I remember the first time I picked Nana — honestly, it was just for fun. I had seen memes about how annoying she was, especially that infamous "auto win with Molinas" post. I wasn’t even planning to take her seriously. But after jus...

Mobile Legends in the Philippines: A Personal Look at a Gaming Revolution When I first heard about Mobile Legends: Bang Bang , I didn’t expect much. It was just another game I saw trending on Facebook, shared by friends who usually didn’t even play games. But little did I know, this game was about to become one of the most iconic parts of Filipino gaming culture — and a big part of my own gaming journey. The Early Days: How It All Began Mobile Legends launched in July 2016, developed and published by Moonton, a Chinese gaming company. It was simple enough: a MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) made for mobile phones. At that time, most popular MOBAs like Dota 2 and League of Legends required a PC and a strong internet connection — something not everyone in the Philippines had access to. But Mobile Legends ? All you needed was a smartphone, a decent mobile connection, and some free time. That’s it. It didn’t take long for word to spread. Suddenly, internet cafés were half-emp...

My Love-Hate Relationship with MOBA: A Gamer's Tale of Strategy, Struggle, and Sweet Victory Since I was a kid, I’ve always had a competitive streak. Whether it was patintero on the street or card games during lunch breaks, I loved anything that had a winner. But the day I stumbled into the world of MOBA — Multiplayer Online Battle Arena — everything changed. MOBA isn’t just a game genre. For people like me, it’s a battlefield of brains, reflexes, and sometimes, pride. Today, I want to share my personal journey with MOBA — the struggles, the small wins, and why I always keep coming back to it. What is MOBA, Anyway? MOBA stands for Multiplayer Online Battle Arena , a subgenre of strategy games where two teams of players battle it out in an arena, typically with three lanes, defensive towers, a jungle area, and a base to protect. You usually play as a hero or champion , each with unique skills, and you work with your team to destroy the enemy's base while defending your o...
