Valentina, one of the most-awaited heroes in Mobile Legends, has finally arrived in the Land of Dawn after a slight hiccup during her launch week. There has been an enormous buzz about this new mage as she can copy any skin she wants and her enemies’ ultimate skill. Do you want Harith’s expensive Lightborn or get Gusion’s rare Cosmic Gleam skin? How about transforming into a dragon or a tank complete with an Optimus Prime skin? Say no more, fam, as Valentina makes all of these possible!
Valentina, the copycat!
Mage users will have a field day with Valentina, Prophetess of the Night. There are endless possibilities as this shadow predator can siphon the ultimate abilities of enemies and inherit their basic attack types (like melee or physical). After casting the enemy’s Ultimate, Valentina also changes into her enemy’s hero form. This feature allows Valentina to adjust her role on the battlefield quickly. We can’t help but say, who needs skins when you got Valentina around?
How to win in MLBB using Valentina
- When using her Ulti to copy an enemy’s ultimate, remember that you only have 12 seconds to use it. It is also outstanding in protecting teammates, especially when you mimic abilities like Angela or Estes.
- For a mage type, Valentina has good mobility. Her second skill is handy as her dash can be used twice to outplay enemies, has a short cooldown, and can also damage a nearby enemy.
- Valentina has high damage potential in the early game. Use her first skill to slow down enemies and help teammates to escape and chase targets. Cast the skill again to hit marked enemies, and they will be confused.
- Hitting enemies with Valentina’s skills will trigger her passive that helps her to gain experience.
- Note that when you copy a Valentina from your enemy’s side, nothing will happen.
