Skill Analysis and Hero Overview
The skills of Mathilda gives her some good attacking stats as an assassin but also makes her agile on the battleground. She is very easy to handle assassin as the player doesn’t need to aim to cast the skill. The first skill deals huge damage to opponents at the very beginning of the game. And with the unlocking of ultimate skill, she can become very deadly right from the start of the game. The ultimate of Mathilda not only boost the attack but also provides shield and damage reduction.
A very easy combo would be to start with the first skill and finish the enemy with the ultimate skill. The enemy also cannot escape the situation as the ultimate skill provides Mathilda with flight ability.
Skill 2 of Mathilda is the reason she is also a supporting character. The skill allows her teammates to teleport to Mathilda which actually isn’t that easy during the game. The skills and the stats are definitely amazing and Mathilda can easily become a metacharacter. But that is if the developers wouldn’t nerf her in the future patch release.
Mathilda release date in Mobile Legends
Mathilda is probably not going to release this year. With the current stats and features, it is clearly evident that the developers would nerf her and test her for quite some time on the advanced server. Mobile Legends have been adding so much diversity to character development recently that to provide a good balance hero stat is very important. And, this takes a lot of time and effort with continuous patch notes.
