When you pick Paquito, the newest fighter in Mobile Legends, expect a straight-up punch for a punch encounter as he says it. Paquito has a good mix of crowd control, burst, buff, and even mobility. His skillset and passive are unique which make his combos unpredictable in different situations. In this post, we’ll help you prepare for a major slugfest with our best build suggestions for the savage brawler.
Paquito is very powerful and can dominate opponents early in the game. He has better survivability compared to others. However, note that he is totally dependent on his skill combos and does not possess a one-hit skill. Paquito might be a bit difficult to use but if you train hard, you can knock out enemies to the last count.
How to win in MLBB using Paquito
- Prioritize unlocking his second skill first and upgrade it to max level as soon as possible. It has burst to deal heavy physical damage and blink to help you escape.
- Play Paquito in any of the side lanes, but focus more on the experience lane to help him level up faster. Clear minion waves between turrets and take out the common creeps nearby (Crab and Lizard).
- You can also maximize Paquito as an offlaner. He can stall enemies and easily dominate on 1vs1 clashes.
- Always save your Jab for critical team fights to maximize the kills. Do not waste it trying to damage enemies with full HP. Also, be careful to avoid ganks as your team can use your help to quickly take down the Turtle.
- His passive, Champ Stance, greatly enhances his next skill once its stack reaches 4. This happens when you land his basic hits/skills on your enemies. Do your best to hit enemies accurately to gain more damage and shield. Even your ultimate shifts from slow to knock-up effect.
- Paquito is totally a skill-based hero so you need to really master his combos so you can land them properly. Good thing is that his skills have a shorter cooldown so you can optimize it to get easier kills.
Paquito Skills / Abilities
Paquito builds stacks when damaging enemies with his Basic Attacks or dealing damage with skills. Once this stack reaches 4, he enters Champ Stance and enhances his next skill. Paquito excels in his technique, and once empowered his skills have no cooldown. However, each of his Basic Attacks only deals (+85% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage. After using any enhancing skill, Paquito increases his Movement Speed by 60% which decays rapidly in 2.5 seconds
Paquito punches in a specified direction, dealing 245 / 280 / 315 / 350 / 385 / 420 (+70% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to the target hit. If a hero is hit, Paquito gains 200 / 260 / 320 / 380 / 440 / 500 (+110 Total Physical Attack) Shield.
Champ Stance Enhanced: Paquito’s heavy punch becomes even fiercer, dealing 350 / 400 / 450 / 500 / 550 / 600 (+100% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage and granting him 110% of the original Shield (this enhanced shield can stack with the non-enhanced shield, too). The shield lasts 2.5 seconds.
Paquito dashes forth and throws a jab, dealing 250 / 310 / 370 / 430 / 490 / 550 (+100% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to all enemies within the area of effect. Champ Stance Enhanced: Gives Paquito’s jab even more striking force, dealing 400 / 496 / 592 / 688 / 784 / 880 (+150% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies within area of effect.
Jab deals no damage to targets in your path and stops only when hitting a hero or creep (it passes through minions).
Paquito launches an elbow strike to all enemies in front, dealing 250 / 300 / 350 (+50% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage and pushing them to the destination. He then swings a haymaker at rapid speed, dealing 400 / 500 / 600 (+100% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage and slowing targets by 75% for 1 second, as he darts backward.
Champ Stance Enhanced: Having pushed enemies to the destination, Paquito launches an uppercut, dealing 600 / 750 / 900 (+150% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage and knocking his enemies airborne instead of slowing them.
