Guide and Build for Lancelot ML (Mobile Legends)

Lancelot Mobile Legends Skills

Passive - Soul Cutter: Each time Lancelot blinks or charges, his damage is increased by 7.5% for 4 seconds, up to a maximum of 30%.

Skill 1 - Puncture: Lancelot charges in a designated direction, inflicting 100 to 250 Physical Damage to enemies along the way and applying a Sword Mark to the first unmarked enemy hit that lasts for 5 seconds. If Lancelot successfully applies a Sword Mark on an enemy, the cooldown of this will reset.

Skill 2 - Thorned Rose: Lancelot attacks at the target 3 times, each time inflicting 225–400 (+100% Extra Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies hit. The damage is reduced by 30% when multiple enemies are hit. He's untargetable and invincible during this process. Enemies in the center of the area will take all 3 hits and are slowed by 20% for 0.5 seconds. The slow effect stacks.

This skill only benefits from 40% of Lancelot's Spell Vamp.

Ultimate - Phantom Execution: After a brief period of charging, Lancelot attacks forward, inflicting 400–800 (+150% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage. He is invincible throughout the process.

Lancelot Combo Skill

Combo: Skill 1 > Basic Attacks > Ultimate > Skill 2 > Basic Attacks.

Make sure to spam your Basic Attacks after using Skills to get the additional damage from Endless Battle.

How to Use Lancelot Mobile Legends Skills

Take Advantage of Your Surroundings to Amplify the Damage Output from Soul Cutter

You can dish out additional damage from Soul Cutter aside from the base damage. You can amplify the damage from taking advantage of Cyclone Eye, Flicker, or even Mathilda's Guiding Wind. So, take advantage of the surroundings to increase Lancelot's damage output.

Switch Between Different Targets (Including Minions) to Keep Resetting His Puncture

Lancelot’s Puncture can be reset by attacking different targets/targets without a Sword Mark. Therefore, be sure to switch between different targets to be able to use Puncture continuously. By doing so, you’ll have much more mobility while also dishing out massive damage.

Keep Positioning Yourself to Get the Best Out of His Thorned Rose

Thorned Rose is Lancelot’s most versatile ability. Aside from inflicting a tremendous amount of damage, this ability can also be used to dodge enemy attacks. You need to be smart in positioning yourself to maximize this ability.

Phantom Execution is Lancelot’s Most Powerful Ability!

Aside from Thorned Rose, Lancelot also has another great ability: Phantom Execution. This Ultimate can be used to chase down targets from running away, or to escape from opponents while also inflicting a decent amount of damage. You can turn things around using this ability.

Here's a List of the Painful Lancelot Build Items

Raptor Machete

As an Assassin hero who takes on jungle monsters constantly, Lancelot needs the jungle item, Raptor Machete in the early game.

This particular item increases his Physical Attack, Physical Penetration, Cooldown Reduction, and allows Lancelot to deal additional damage of 50% on jungle monsters.

Aside from that, this item also has more Passive effects that will come in handy for Lancelot, one of which is it boosts his Basic Attacks and gives additional Physical Damage of 50 points, and a slow effect of 30%.

Magic Shoes

Of the many choices of boots items, Magic Shoes is the best Movement Speed item for Lancelot.

Since he relies heavily on his Skills to make plays, he requires a high Cooldown Reduction. Luckily, the game has a boots item that increases this stat, Magic Shoes.

Endless Battle

After you’ve purchased a movement item, the next one you have to get is going to be a damage-boost item called Endless Battle

This item provides additional points to certain attributes that are crucial for Lancelot, such as HP, Physical Attack, Physical Lifesteal, Mana Regen, Cooldown Reduction, and Movement Speed.

Blade of the Heptaseas

Next, you may want to get the Blade of the Heptaseas to increase his Max HP, Physical Attack, and Physical Penetration.

In addition to that, this item also boasts a Passive which provides his Basic Attacks with 240 extra points as well as 60% of additional Physical Attack. 

With the Raptor Machete; Endless Battle; and Blade of the Heptaseas, Lancelot can inflict a tremendous amount of damage just by using his Basic Attacks.

Blade of Despair

To further increase Lancelot’s overall damage output, it’d be smart to get the Blade of Despair.

This one boosts his Physical Attack by 160 points, Movement Speed by 5%, and has a Passive, which also increases his damage by 25% when attacking low-health targets.

Immortality

There are a lot of choices for his sixth item, but here, the writer would like to advise you to get Immortality to make him survive longer in team fights.

Aside from increasing his Physical Defense and Max HP, Immortality also has a Passive that allows him to get resurrected upon death with 20% HP.

Lancelot Emblem

[Assassin Emblem Set]

As an Assassin hero, the perfect emblem for him has got to be the Assassin emblem set. This emblem set increases attributes; such as Physical Penetration; Physical Attack; Critical Chance; Cooldown Reduction; and Movement Speed.

[1st Tier Talent: Agility]

For his 1st Tier Talent, Lancelot should take Agility to increase his Movement Speed, allowing him to roam quickly, and pulling off ganks easily.

For each level, Agility will give 2% extra Movement Speed. If you choose to maximize this talent, you will have 6% extra Movement Speed.

[2nd Tier Talent: Invasion]

To further increases his damage, you should pick Invasion since this talent will give you additional Physical Penetration per level.

[3rd Tier Talent: Killing Spree]

Tips to play using Lancelot

Use Your Positioning to Maximize Damage

Lancelot is more than capable of inflicting a crazy amount of damage if you attack from the right position because the damage from his Skill 2 will be tripled if you hit the enemies in the center.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Lancelot Mobile Legend

Pros

Massive Damage Output

Just like most Assassins in Mobile Legends, Lancelot can dish out a tremendous amount of damage. With his Thorned Rose and Phantom Execution, he can create a nasty burst damage to finish off targets in just one combo. 

High Mobility

If used properly, his Puncture can be used continuously. By doing so, Lancelot can move around freely in team fights. Lancelot’s mobility helps him dodge deadly attacks in fights.

Has Lots of Combos

Lancelot has no particular combo as all of his abilities can be combined into a deadly combo. You can start initiating attacks using Puncture, or even Phantom Execution. It all depends on the creativity of the player.

Cons

Lacks Crowd Control, Too Damage-Focused

One of Lancelot’s weaknesses is his lack of a solid  Crowd Control that can actually stagger targets. Lancelot tends to struggle to lock down any opponent who is more nimble than him as he cannot actually stop them.

Sub-Par Defense

Assassins like Lancelot tend to have terrible Defense, making them vulnerable to burst damage. Lancelot might die instantly from getting hit by attacks from Mages like Eudora.

Weak Late Game

Lancelot shines in the early to mid game, yet he slows down when the late game arrives. Granted, Lancelot can dish out crazy damage and finish off his targets in no time, yet he can also be killed in just seconds.

Well, that was the best guide and build for Lancelot of Mobile Legends that you can use in ranked matches.
