Patch 2.1.18
Season 37 Released September 17, 2025Patch 2.1.18 - New Hero Obsidia
Project NEXT Patch 2025 is here! Annual Map Change is live, with every match offering a completely different experience. At the same time, we've reworked how Roaming Equipment generates gold, allowing the roaming role to have a greater impact. There are also new heroes, revamped heroes, in-match experience optimizations, and much more awaiting you! We hope the new patch will bring more diverse hero picks, with more balanced impact across different lanes. Have fun in MLBB!
Hero Feature: An Abyss Marksman who enhances her weapon by collecting Bone Shards as she traverses the battlefield.
A Powerful Abyss Queen Who Dominates the Late Game Alice, the Blood Demon Queen, awakens to new power! The Queen makes her move in advance, preparing for the upcoming conquest of the Abyss.
Adjustments applied to Smart Heart, Love Waves, Puppet-on-a-String, Heartguard.
Bane has been too reliant on Gold to scale in the current patch. We've adjusted his damage curve, boosting his early and mid-game power while reducing his late-game strength.
Thamuz returns with greater power. His Passive has been adjusted to improve Lava Energy activation, while his Ultimate has been optimized for faster transformation and greater late-game potential.
To keep the balance, Skill 2 can now only be interrupted by high-level CC.
Slightly improved Base Attributes to enhance the ability to help allies clear minions and creeps.
We found that Kimmy can achieve higher hit rates by continuously tapping the Basic Attack button while losing less damage output. We aim to adjust this.
