With the newest Patch 1.8.98 Update in Mobile Legends, developers at MOONTON Games have devised some revamp changes to Granger, which will work on his Skill 1 and Ultimate. Additionally, there are some other Battlefield Adjustments, new Hero balance changes, and more. Let us break down the newest Patch Update in the Advanced Server.
Revamped Granger
Granger is a demon hunter, who can have infinite firepower by killing enemies. Demonic Energy powers Granger’s unique Demon Hunter Gun and Cannon. Killing enemies increases its Energy cap and restores the Energy.
His Skill 1 and Ultimate have no skill cooldown, and players can continuously fire as long as they have enough Energy. With some buffing on the laning ability, they will fight as a Marksman in the Gold lane. Devs have also removed the effect of the last shot (can Crit) to keep him balanced.
For now, the revamped Granger will continue to use the previous graphic resources. His revamped resources are still being optimized.
Passive – Capriccio
- Each Minion/Creep kill will permanently increase the Energy cap of Granger’s Gun and Cannon, and instantly restore their Energy. He can continuously fire as long as they have enough Energy.
- Both of his weapons recover a certain percentage of Energy per second.
Skill 1 – Rhapsody

Rhapsody has no cooldown and can be cast as long as his Gun has Energy. While firing, Granger’s Movement Speed is greatly increased. It can now deal extra damage to Minions.
Skill 2 – Rondo
Granger dashes in the target direction, instantly restoring Energy for his Gun.
Ultimate – Death Sonata
Death Sonata has no cooldown and can be cast as long as Granger’s Cannon has Energy. Death Sonata can be cast while firing Rhapsody.
Mobile Legends Patch 1.8.98 Update: Hero Adjustments
Nolan (Buffed)
The previous nerf to Nolan’s mobility had a huge impact, but it’s ideal for skill-casting frequency. In this patch, we increased his damage for balance.

Mobile Legends Patch 1.8.98 Update: Battlefield Adjustments
The devs at MOONTON Games continue to make changes in the Battlefield Effect Test. Let us have a look at it.
Battlefield Effect Test
The Battlefield Effect Test only applies to Ranked matches at Master rank and above. When entering a match, the system will inform you of the Battlefield Effects in effect for that match.
Battlefield Effect – Everlasting Turtle
- With this change, the Turtle will not disappear after 8 minutes of the match and will continue to respawn on the Map. The River Current will disappear after the Lord spawns.
- Lord spawns in the 8 minutes of the match and will appear in a different spot than Turtle.
Battlefield Effect – River Surge
The River Current duration is increased and the Lord will create a River Current before spawning or when killed.
Others
- Players have applied a new indicator for the Hayabusa’s Skill 2.
- To prevent EXP from being taken by teammates instead of Junglers, we have made the following adjustments:
- During the first 2 minutes of the match, when a Creep is killed in your side’s Jungle Area, the Exp and Gold go to the nearby hero with Retribution; if multiple nearby heroes have Retribution equipped, the Exp and Gold will be divided between them according to the current rule.
- They have fixed an issue where tapping on the mini-map screen didn’t toggle while moving.
