Emblem Setup

Custom Assassin emblem is best for Clint. It will provide both extra Movement Speed as well as Physical Penetration. For talent, we would recommend going with Killing Spree as it restores some HP and provides Movement Speed after getting a kill or you can take High and Dry to get an advantage while laning , so choose talent according to the situation.

Mobile Legends Clint Gameplay Tips

As most other marksmen Clint also lacks damage in the early game and is also very vulnerable to enemy assassins. However, a player must need a good understanding of the map to bring the best out of any hero. According to his gameplay, we can break it down into three phases. Our Mobile Legends Clint guide includes the perfect game plan for the early, mid, and late game.

Early Game

Go to the gold lane and focus on farming in the lane. Unlock your first skill as it will help to clear the lane quickly. Be cautious about the enemy in your lane and try not to get killed in the early phase. If turtle spawns in your lane be sure to gank for turtle with your team. Always stay behind your tank and play safe. Focus on destroying turret whenever have a chance, it will give you farm and also provide an advantage on map control.

Mid Game

At this stage, you have 2/3 items depending upon your farm efficiency. Now you can gank frequently as you can deal a decent amount of damage. Be sure to use your skill 2 to trap enemies and use that Immortality whether to attack or escape from a tough situation. Be sure to check you have 5 stacks of your grenades before jumping into the battlefield.

Late Game

After getting all items you can deal a ton of damage so be sure not to stay idle at your lane and rotate frequently to help your team in ganks. You can play a bit aggressively, try to target backline enemies by going sideways and find loopholes in team fights. Check your mini-map to stay out of reach of the enemy assassin.

Remember to use your basic attack every time after using a skill to take maximum advantage of Clint’s passive damage. Spam your attack frequently as by the late game all skills have a comparatively lower cooldown. You only need to save your 2nd skill and use it if necessary as it can be helpful in critical situations.

Clint falls short and can be easily countered by most assassins, and most mobile fighters can counter Clint as well. On the other hand, Clint can counter most of the marksman heroes, and additionally using his 2nd skill Clint can counter heroes that have only one dash skill.

Final Thoughts

After introducing new marksman heroes, Clint got in the back section of everyone’s choice. Thanks to Moonton giving Clint a huge buff that he makes a comeback in-game. Blessed with huge Attack damage of his passive and low CD skills, Clint can break chaos on the battlefield. But like any other Marksman, he too has to be cautious against the enemy assassin.

Clint is a skill-dependent Marksman, so Position and Aim mastering these two can make you a better Clint in no time. And then shred your enemies in Clint’s cool cowboy way. An excellent pick for rank games, Clint is definitely a good pick for the current meta. These tips will surely help you to guide easy wins with Clint in Mobile Legends. You can also refer to our latest tier list to know more about the revamped meta heroes in this current season.
