Assassin mains are celebrating these massive buffs coming in MLBB season 16

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Season 16 will begin at the end of March, and with it comes huge buffs for three assassin heroes.

Moonton says they want to encourage more players to pick Assassins. The developer revealed that the Assassin class has been underperforming in matches, and has a low use rate due to how difficult the class is to play.

Hanzo’s Demon Feast has been completely re-worked. In S16, every basic attack will contribute a stack, which will unlock Demon Feast much faster. Hanzo’s AoE Soul Reap has also been tweaked to make it a more reliable source of damage.

These revisions should give players more control over his abilities, while also increasing his overall damage output and flexibility.

Assassins are supposed to be good at sneaking up on people, but Natalia hasn’t been the best at that as relies heavily on bushes to enter Conceal State.

Her new passive doesn’t require bush to enter Conceal State, and she can now chain her Ultimate to re-enter stealth. This will open up a much more aggressive style of gameplay for Natalia players

Lancelot was quite overpowered when he first released, but has been nerfed overtime to the point where he’s generally considered underpowered now.

His revamped passive changes his combo and opens up more windows for burst damage, which should make him more effective at ganking players.

Equipment updates

Moonton will also be buffing Assassin-related items, but the developer hasn’t announced many details so far.

So far we only know that the passive damage of Blade of the Heptaseas, a common item for assassins, will be increased.
