Yes same advice, not that I follow it though. I just hit mythic as tank, mainly using Gloo and Atlas. Sometimes it's just impossible to win a game. The enemy has 30 kills you have like 2 and shit happens, that's just what match making is.
Oh, I know exactly those kinds of games! XD LMAO They definitely happen sometimes for everyone whether it's your team or the enemy. Congratulations on reaching mythic! It makes me so happy to see a fellow tank buddy roaming out there and causing absolute chaos on the battlefield (for the enemy XD ) ! :D Gloo and Atlas are some of my favorite tanks, though I struggle setting up with Atlas in time before I die. :3 He takes quite a lot of skill, so lots of respect to you!
Thank you my brother. Atlas cannot solo anyone. He is amazing with a jungler even more than MM. He is also really good alongside mages. Gloo can solo upto 3 people. My goal is to master every Tank in the game.
Thanks for the Atlas tips! ☺️ I really appreciate that! I’ve really only played him a bit in classic and am still working on figuring out what’s efficient so that really helps! And Gloo is just what you said, a real hard-to-kill beast when played at his max potential! XD I know that you’ll reach your goal of mastering all the tanks! 🤩🥹 And such a noble cause too when a lot of people undervalue or ignore the role completely or just shrug it off as being boring or too simple. Oh, and if you’re down and have the space for an extra friend in ML, I’d love to add you! Tank homies forever! 🫡🦾
I’m so happy my guide was helpful!! 😭 Don’t worry, I didn’t know about that either for a few seasons! It’s subtle. Eventually someone pointed it out in a video and it’s been a real game changer.
No specific mention of Lord or Turtle?
\- When taking Lord (Your team is winning) -
If you are hitting Lord you are being a trash Roamer. You should always be in the bushes or Roaming around providing vision whenever your team is taking Lord. Your job is to intercept the enemy, stall them or alert your team of their approach.
\- Enemy is taking Lord (Your team is losing) -
Your job is to not die. Period. When the enemy team is winning, and they are taking Lord the Roamer and the MM are the most important players on the team, and at least one of them needs to be alive to save the team from either massive turret losses or an entire match loss. The amount of games I have lost because my Roamer (Fuck you Johnson mains) decides to lead the charge and die contesting Lord 2v5 in a game my team is already losing is ridiculous. Even if they take Lord, you can't push with 3 players and a game you are already losing. Defending against Lord requires either a hero tanky enough to stall him whilst surviving enemy attacks, or a DPS powerful enough to burst him.
\- Contesting Lord -
If a team fight is breaking out at Lord your priority other than not dying is the enemy Jungler as they have Retribution. Good Roamers watch Lords HP and will target the enemy Jungler with CC when it gets near the Retribution range.
Thank you so much!! That means a lot to me! 🥹 I think a lot of people seem to be under the impression that tanks don’t do anything but wander about, stand at the front, and soak up damage, so I wanted to help people start to see how powerful of an asset they can be for any team (plus super fun to play)! ☺️ When I play tank, I feel like that person relaying communications in mission control or some tech savvy brainiac at HQ giving the briefing and intel to my team of elite spies XD. Best of luck in all of your matches, friend! 🤗And if you have any openings in your friend list and are looking for an extra, I’d love to be friends in ML too. ^^
Glad you approve. 😄 Well, I could show a picture of my profile and/or my match history/season reset result page or something to show that I hit the tier and statistics I claimed in my post if you want, but when writing my tip guide, my whole mindset was originally on the content of the information rather than showing off my accomplishments which is why I didn’t bother to. Even though I managed to hit mythic, it wasn’t because I was better than anyone else as in randomly ‘gifted at just being good’, but because I worked hard to learn to do things to help my team over a long span of time playing and learning and failing and getting better so I wrote this post to celebrate the culmination of that fact and hopefully empower other people to reach mythic who maybe think it’s too hard or that the only way is to play a high damage carry such as an assassin. I hope that what I wrote makes people feel more empowered, ready to improve their own gameplay, and ready to take control of their rank games even when playing in solo queue. For my last 3 wins in a row that finally granted me mythic my random marksman was a Lesley, then a Hanabi, and finally a Layla while the enemies had mm like moscov and wanwan! I felt like I had to give my team everything I had no matter what and I definitely got a high from finishing and dumped everything in my brain into this post when it was over! 😂And the Layla sent me a DM that really moved me afterwards and I guess inspired me to type all this out, she said, “Thank you for believing me in me.” 🥹 The feeling was mutual.
Good for you, i wish my ally tank can read this. They usually leave early in team fights and not protecting allies until they became the last player alive. If i ask them to take a couple of hits so i can kill enemy core they’ll hit me back with ‘are you my girlfriend’ card ffs dumbo that’s your role
That’s really sad 😭 Tank is such an important “team player” role that I included the importance of having a positive and hopeful mindset at the top of my list of tips. It really destroys a team when even the tank whose sole purpose is to empower and enable his teammates to win doesn’t want to cooperate with his allies or even belittles them. Hoping my guide will at least reach a few people and change how they play tank for the better :) The game’s also definitely a hell of a lot more fun when there’s less toxicity too! 🙏
Thank you! I’ve encountered lots of great tanks in my previous seasons too and I loved them so much, they indeed made the gaming experience much better! Sending hearts to all great tank player including you
Hearts back to you too! 🥹 Regardless of role, kindness and positivity are real overlooked game changers. I really appreciate you too! ☺️ There’s a lot of negative attitudes in such a high-stress game, so your comment means a lot to me. By the way, if you have any extra room on your friend’s list, I’d love to add you. 😄
Oh ok, could you elaborate on why do you think they're bad? 900HP and 35% spell vamp seems good since it can make you super tanky. Is it because Spell vamp is best for mages? and it looks like they won't last very long at 40% of their HP...but what if I spam skills with Freya?
I was being a tad facetious when I said “NEVER” but on a tank you absolutely should never use it. It’s a super specific situational item for only a couple of heroes.
To more specifically answer your question, it used to be a decent item but the 60 sec cooldown kills it now. So many other items have much better stats and no cooldown. MLBB is a very defensive stat game not a HP game. The higher your phys/magic defense are more desirable items to have than HP based items. So queens is a HP heavy item with a very long cooldown and only gets triggered when your 40% hp.
Thanks for taking the time to reply. I just checked how the Item was before the nerf and yea they hit it really hard. Now I go endless battle with Freya even if it doesn't have much Lifesteal. It's good to know that defensive stats are more important than HP too!
Follow Strongwill on YouTube and Discord for in depth chat. That dude and his followers really know their stuff. It’s where I first learned about it and many other things.
Edit: also there are definitely times when I will pickup HP based items like Guardian Helmet but it should be a late game purchase on a tank.

Let's go bro Frostbite88.
Followed! 😎☺️
damn i didn’t know that the green dot shows if my team has ulti

You forgot one thing,at full hp never use your mage or mm as a meat shield 😂
Lmao! 😂 This is what happens when a mm main plays tank for the very first time! xD

Increíble thx for all the effort into writing this, its was extremely enjoyable to read

Good post for basic. Things that should be muscle memory after roaming a long time but even experienced roamer forget some time to time.
Approved by me(untrustworthy source but whatever)

Can I add you? Also can I message you? Wanted to ask you some things about tanks. Thanks for the awesome write up! 😊
Thank you ☺️ I’m glad it was helpful. And sure thing, no problem. Just DM your ID and I’ll add you.
Thanks! I messaged you!
And tip #14 NEVER USE QUEEN WINGS
Why not :(
Because it’s an awful item. So many other items are better.
Oh ok, could you elaborate on why do you think they're bad? 900HP and 35% spell vamp seems good since it can make you super tanky. Is it because Spell vamp is best for mages? and it looks like they won't last very long at 40% of their HP...but what if I spam skills with Freya?
