(SPOT.ph) At some point while you’re out to get groceries, there’s at least a 90% chance that you will see someone holding his or her phone in landscape—fixated on the screen with matching sounds effects of clashing swords, casting spells, or audio that says “attack” or “retreat.” That person is most likely playing Mobile Legends: Bang Bang.
According to analytics firm SensorTower, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) is one of the top grossing mobile games in several Southeast Asian countries such as the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia. But hey, MLBB is not the only 5v5 real-time multiplayer gameplay that you can play. Check out these other Multiplayer Online Battle Arena games that’ll get you to shout attack and retreat.

This game pits our fave Marvel heroes and villains (including the ones in the X-Men and the Fantastic Four lore) against each other in Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) format. Marvel: Super War offers a geekier experience since the characters’ skills are all based on their abilities (i.e., shield throwing for Cap, shooting for Star Lord). NetEase Games makes sure the game does not fall short on its roster as over 50 characters are available and more are being added regularly. Even some lesser-known heroes are in the game!
To top it off, alt costumes or skins are also available for each character: There are comic book-based skins and even Marvel Cinematic Universe-based ones. And yes, skins from past Marvel films up to the latest TV shows WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier are in the game.
League of Legends: Wild Rift

For MOBA mobile gamers, LoL: Wild Rift is undoubtedly MLBB’s greatest rival. It’s the mobile version of the widely successful PC game of the same name. Riot Games’ Wild Rift has over 40 champions (all coming from the OG game) and there are three more champions coming in May—namely Kha’Zix, Rengar, and Renekton. The game is filled with amazing visuals and action-packed gameplay. Battles are set in an abridged version of Summoner’s Rift with different sets of jungle monsters and runes compared to the PC version. Tip: Playing as Blitzcrank is kind of a rite-of-passage thing for newbies.
Arena of Valor

Arena of Valor, or AoV to its players, is famous for many reasons. One is because it’s published by Tencent Games (parent studio of Riot Games) and another is because it features several collabs with different universes such as DC comics, Sword Art Online, and even Bleach. Can you imagine Batman or Superman killing minions and taking down turrets along with European deities or legends?

Heroes Arena

Frankly speaking, the roster of heroes available in Heroes Arena is more similar to MLBB’s. That might be a downer, but the heroes’ unique and creative skills and abilities could lure you back in. Its main battlefield is also a mixture of MLBB’s Land of Dawn and Wild Rift’s Summoner Rift. Bushes and walls are spread throughout the map differently which means you need to come up with new strategies for ganks and escapes.
Awakening of Heroes
