Mobile Legends vs Wild Rift In 2024 | Still A CopyCat? | Hells Reacts 

What are your thoughts on this?

Simple answer.... Mobile legends is copycat 😶

What makes ML's case disgusting is that they basically don't have any unique abilities of their own. If you see an ability in ML, it's probably from someone in LOL.

11:26 u press her ult, she goes back to her shoes and also restores a % of her hp she took as DMG before the ult.

Generic abilities couldn't be called copy by itself. But when you put all the same generic abilities in a copied character like the garen copy there, it turns into an obvious copy.

11:20 Yeah hells. she did go back to her shoes unfortunately

I enjoy playing both MOBA games, but I find MLBB to be more popular due to its relative simplicity and accessibility. Wild Rift, on the other hand, is highly complex and requires a significant time investment to understand and master its mechanics. While I have played Wild Rift before, I prefer MLBB because it fits better with my schedule and allows for more casual play. In terms of originality, it's true that MLBB has copied entirely League of Legends, but their approach has proven successful as the game has resonated well with players. Wild Rift, despite being an official adaptation of League of Legends, hasn't reached the same level of popularity as MLBB, Call of Duty Mobile, or Farlight 84.

Warning: A Lot Of Text. Very interesting video for someone like me who's been playing Wild Rift since Chinese beta, but who also played MLBB 3 years before that. The video mostly depicts visual but not the gameplay similarities. If you are interested in diving deeper into the comparison I'll be commenting on some of the examples(at least the ones that I know of, there are a bunch of new characters that I'm not familiar with in MLBB since I don't play that game anymore) 1:45, this guy might visually have a slightly different ability, but this is a copy that knocks enemies up the same way. 2:31, pretty much the same concept, but she doesn't have Oriana's third ability, she can only move her umbrella and teleport to it and stun the enemies nearby. So it's not an exact copy of the whole champion, I'm not even mentioning the fact that she has two ults, one when the umbrella is out and one when she wears it. The copy, but not a complete copy. 3:45, this one is copied, not from Lux but from the Vel'koz(LoL PC), the exact same skill that when hits something or reaches the furthest point stuns the enemies to the left and right. 4:12, yeah similar visually, but she deals damage in that area and can dash without interrupting the ult once. 5:17, Yasuo's dash is targetable, and Lancelot's dash is a skillshot, you can use it as your normal dash it just won't reset. Also, you need to have at least one unmarked enemy on your way to reset, and each reset gives you a stack. Normally you'd want to dash through 3 enemies to get your maximum stacks to have the highest damage for your other abilities. 6:03 Hayabusa's shadows are actually more interesting. So basically you dash forward and throw 4 shadows in the plus-like formation, if a shadow hits the enemy, they are marked and Hayabusa can teleport to the enemy directly(even if the champion has moved somewhere, also no distance cap). When teleporting to a shadow his shuriken's ability cd is reduced. Due to all of that - the gameplay using this ability is extremely different, and in my opinion way more fun(Just look at "Hayabusa montage" if you want to see how awesome this champ's gameplay actually is) 7:45, yup, his ult is pretty much a combination of Lee's first + ult with a knockup at the point of dashing to the enemy. 9:14, she doesn't heal all of the allies on the map, just in her ability's radius(approximately like a ranged champ auto-attack). This ability has like a 5s cd btw. 9:29, this guy reveals the enemies like TF but he can also select a target and fly towards them stunning the enemy at the contact. 9:46, oh, this one is very different actually. Yes, you have your invisibility and you deal slight damage when the ult lands, but it also lands leaving 4 marks in a plus-like formation, the champion(Ling) can dash to that mark, and have his dash reset(dash deals damage to a nearby enemy), so it plays more like a Fiora's ult, when you need to proc the vitals but here you need to dash(proc) the marks and enemy ideally should be in the center of his ult to receive the damage. 10:04, this is neither LoL's nor MLBB's champion idea. The monkey with a stuff named Wukong who can create a clone is like a legend or folk somewhere in Asia. There is an upcoming story-based game literally called "Wukong" about the same character. 10:26, similar ults yeah. This champ is also like Aphelios from LoL PC, she can swap guns that all have different effects. 10:31, heh, the idea is similar, but Johnson(the champ) can actually have a passenger(allied champ) and is more mobile as you can turn however you like, you can drift around your nexus if you want to. One of the funnies champs to play, especially if you want to troll just take your teammate and crash into enemy's fountain xD 11:11, yeah her ult makes her go to her shoes, she doesn't deal damage, but has resets on her balls(Hells Devil moment) ability. So basically it's used for different purposes(except getting to safety, that's the same) 11:30, Roger is a copy of multiple characters, he changes forms with ult like Jayce, in his human form he's like a Graves, and in his wolf form he's like Warwick. His wolf's first ability is similar to Master Yi's first ability(he disappears and deals damage, but only for like a hit or two). BTW he was just auto attacking, he doesn't have the same ult as Warwick.

10:21 one thing about wukong (or sun in ML) he is based of off stories and HoK also has him under the full name: sun wukong. Its in more games as well

at the beginning when I watched I hoped this was the most updated comparison of mobile legends with wild rift, but now it is no longer related to mobile legends now. there have been many heroes whose skills have been reworked after "Project next" was released in mobile legends even though the concept has not changed significantly. After this there will be another "project next". even so I don't deny that MLBB has a lot of problems regarding copyright

I would say yes ML is a copycat but the guy who made the video is just an upset kid who looks at 2 things and if they seem similar he calls it copy, wich is really bad for this kind of video. Some things get hidden on purpose by not placing enemy's. For example the Janna ult "copy" only shares the animation, infact it does dmg and doesn't heal or knock back at all. Or trying to somehow compare abilities where it is like comparing blitzcrank hook with Nautilus hook, wich is the case for a 1/3 of the shown abilities. Can just someone make a serious video.

Hey hells that yone one isn't exactly a copy. It's the opposite of that because that champion came to mobile legends before wild rift and league pc

Not gonna lie guys ive been so tired of Wild rift because of the matchmaking im taking a break and ACTUALLY having fun playing Mobile legends, try for yourself and don't take other people opinions too seriously and just shit on the game just because they dont like it, at the end its just an opinion.

since many say that hanzo came out before yone, that is true BUT the ability itself was already in the works way before in 2016 for karmas rework, but Riot (specifically NeuroCat a disigner of Riot) scrapped it and it was given later to yone, you can find footage of karma (with her new looks) using it

It says 2024 on the title but also says that this was also 8 months ago... The mlbb this is the old one but things are much more different on mlbb now.

The sad thing about the video is that they are showing one ability which is similar to lol but actually the champ is not similar at all. Let me explain with orianna, one of the '' big '' copy. Yes they have similar ability but the playstyle is actually not at all the same. The ml copy can tp on his umbrella which stun enemie and cant give shield to his allie. Same thing with zed. The ml spell is a dash which lend 4 shadow in every direction that can link to enemie etc... I have been playing those 2 games and I do not see any true copy. That video is bias cause the man doing it want to proove something and do not want to really check if there is copy. Sorry for my English

It's interesting when he says: ''Everyone can think of that'' League of Legends: 27.10.2009 Mobile Legends: 14.07.2016 Everything you see in Mobile Legends is a copy from League of Legends. - Map - Lanes - Jungle - Bushes - Turrets - Nexus - Abilitys Every idea came out of League of Legends even the last name of a game ''Legends'' It's true that champions doesn't look the same and that some abilities looks a bit different but the fact is that ''their'' idea came out of League of Legends.

the one who makes ability wants the abilitys to look like a copy but alot of them (not all) are not even similar but he just made them look like that .

I think Fiora’s riposte is more similar to this Hero called Benedetta in ML. Both block damage & cc and can stun enemies if you time it right. The only difference is the ML hero will dash when she block while Fiora stand still during her riposte.

The ML hero who looks like wukong is named Sun, but back in the days the hero name used to be "Wukong" too. Like zilong, used to be named as "Zhao Yun" then "Yun zhao" and turned to zilong. The name change event 10:25 happened when Riot start suing them multiple times

“dont tell me she goes back to her shoes” made me laugh

At 10:39 , the mobile legends champion ( that tranforms into a car ) can run around the map easily , sion is more hard to control and you cant make some sharp turns with him and with Johnson ( mobile legends champion) you can carry someone any champion with . So technically with some added features

Fanny is much crazier than Camille, because Fanny can recast the skill immediately, she can become the most mobile hero in all the games combined. If you combine 2 cables, it will go towards the center. The skill has no cooldown, but high energy cost, so you can't really spam it, and it's considered the hardest hero that has ever been released in MLBB. Aphelios and Hwei are nothing compared to her. Though she'd be easy if she would be released in Lol

What i appreciate is that ml take similar concepts and turns it into something new

4:38 that one is VI not yasuo 6:01 it's a generic skill even DOTA has that in juggernaut ult I think 11:06 yes it's the same heal and recall 15:53 it's same but the hero on the left don't have sweet spot like aatrox but there game play are similar in a way 19:01 it's the same ult with old phantheon 20:03 it's the same 1st and stackables passive 23:11 OK 28:30 similar but the one on the left she return all projectile basic atk or skill after rework the argus and tryndamire have similar game play but the hero on the left have the old aatrox aesthetic I play both games or 3 game or 4 LOL,MLBB,and WR and a little bit of DOTA

22:44 Wait, is that an Attack on Titan copy? 😂😂😂😂😂 If that's not a collab thing then it's hella disgusting 😂

Can't believe last part of this was 3 year's ago🗿

Evelyn and Tree Guy comparison is different, Evelyn uses an ability meanwhile the other one is his passive which has a chance to activate when hit that reflects damage

MLBB is "inspired" by LOL I love how you judged the video Some ability may look the same but have different functions

Nuclear situation

Angela was released a year before Yuumi Angela's Ult was becoming one with the targeted allied hero in it's whole duration

Im glad you're bring these type of videos back.. that mobile legends reaction is video is what got me into your channel way back when there was this reupload in our country that kinda blew up because at that time rift was starting to expand into mobile.. probably gave your channel a lot of exposure as well as a result, well deserved regardlesss 🎉

Love these types of videos

Probably not a copycat game anymore but a lot of it's contents like skin splash arts are mostly "inspired" from league

The Rakshan and the Native Indian girl is different too, she does a locked ability where she spins around a target whereas Rakshan does it do a wall

So I play both games and some of the skills in video don't show every skill In 2:59 kagura and orianna yes ability shows pull but the play style is completely different 11:56 hanzo came out before yone so not a copy 11:38 yu zhong is based on eastern dragon style so... 14:59 natalia ring only immune basic attack while akali is invisible 20:41 leomord skill do not immune like fiora does 25:25 melissa skill only pushes the enemy doesn't immune like gwen 28:22 lolita ability is very like braum but it changes to reflect ability now... The video just wants to make mlbb copy(im not saying it didn't) everything and doesn't show how it actually does.... (Im more of wild rift player and this is not a bias🥹🥹🥹)

16:03 the audio change lol

I love how Hells shows so many abilities that MLBB has copied from LoL but MLBB players are just talking about the Hanzo and Yone similarities cuz thats the only thing LoL has taken inspiration from

I understand some parts of the abilities are the same but a lot of them have more to it if they were to show what happens while moving with the abilities. Not to mention mlbb came out 4 years before wild rift. Without a doubt mlbb took some abilities from LoL but I wouldn’t say they’re exact copies at all, I’ve played a lot of both games and they’re both unique in their own way but I can see where this video is coming from for sure bc a lot of moves are definitely almost the same aside from a few extra bits and pieces.

we need a man like this.......

Fun fact hanzo come out before yone coming out into lol pc 12:07

If League of legends mobile was released early than mobile legends, wildrift is probably gonna be the popular mobile moba rn.

I enjoy LoL on pc and Wild Rift. The one thing MLBB has over wild rift is the ability to play from anywhere in the world on the same account. I’m overseas and I move back to the states soon, all of my skins and progress I will have to restart on wild rift. Hundreds of dollars lost, in MLBB I get to keep my skins etc

25:37 Melissa's ultimate was a dome barrier that blocks melee attacks/heroes, still targetable but no one can enter the dome, no one can close in while gwen's is a field of invulnerability

Actually Yone is the one copy Hanzo ultimate 😂 Yone released on August 2020, and Hanzo December 2018

The title says "Mlbb Vs Wild Rift 2024" Showcase a video of mlbb and wild rift 2022 recap summary. At this point just say your short out of money since everyone hates you on wild rift

All mobile legends did was take individual abilities from heroes in League & combined them into one hero for Mobile Legends.

Alot of these are similar but the guy making the video is really biased. Like saying the ml hero "fanny" is similar to camille is INSANE. she is probably the most unique hero in every moba ever. He cables have no cd and her entire kit is reliant on her cables

Who still plays ml when we have wr

MLBB is a WAY BETTER game than Wild Rift Short matches, a better value for ur money (if u want to recharge) and it s overall a balanced game. And btw, some abilities are copied(ngl), but their playstyle, kit is different. And MLBB is THE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS of mobile and that s facts🤫🤫🤫

the sad thing is that Draven doesn't have a soccer theme skin. it fits him so well! it also would work as a counterpart to Darius dunkmaster skin

The shield one actually bounces back the projectiles not block it

I have played both, and here is my take. ML- more user friendly (no warding, purchase anywhere in the map, and generally 3 skills only per champion/hero excluding the passive), more events, freebies, in game ads, and collabs (which is a plus) more popular (in SEA at least), more pro tournaments, was also included in SEA Games as an esport, better user interface specially in its home screen, can be linked to social media platforms (FB). Home screen looks more “alive” WR- is more focused in the game play than its appearance, it is more complex (warding, 2 abilities, better runes, more skills for champs). User interface is not really that appealing especially home screen which looks quite boring. I am not hating on WR btw, i just think that it has not been competing well with its “copycat”.

If you dint know the heros in mbl and what they do in their interity please dont comment many of the skills shown are not copied yet you saud they were you did not know how their skills fully work just partial animation of it. Dont be biased

The difference between Odette ult and janna ult is that odette ult the one from ml is that it does damage overtime and has a dash they only look the same visually

17:43 actually, this is out of context. The one from mlbb isnt stationary. His ult can move everytime he shoots his ult.

LMAO the Wukong lookalike in ML is called Sun, and the full name for that Chinese mythological character is Sun Wukong 💀

I think the standard I would use is this: If the champion’s abilities are similar to other champions in the same game, then it’s considered more generic (example: Yasuo and Janna both have tornadoes that cc enemy champs). But, if the champion’s ability is unique within the game, and then they appear in another game the same way, that would be more unique and prone to copycat (like Yone’s 3rd ability). And then, of course, the small details of the ability being exactly the same, like Master Yi’s 1st ability, and stuff like that.

I think you should also look at their new items, one of them is like collector, it execute when in low health, there's also an item that increases range

Melissa’s ultimate creates a bubble where heroes cannot enter (the bubble ult that follows like gwen) and the teleportation one (tf ult) the mlbb version can actually transport the whole team there if they stay within the circle. The tryndamere ult copy, the mlbb version does more damage with the fury bar but in the ult form, he will heal back health based on ampunt of damage he outputs so he can go from full to zero (in ult) and then zero to full again.

quick note: hanzo was release before yone and lesley before akshan, but i do agree on the caitlin

The monkey champ name is "Sun" btw

I thought you would link the original video?

The mic is a bit weird in some parts of the video idk if it is a glitch or no

I do like the fact that you don’t have to return to base to buy stuff in base in Mobile Legends. I feel like it keeps things fast paced and you can buy items in game late game while being chased to turn a fight. Example, your the adc chasing down the enemy team. You’ve taken everyone out but the tank. You sell an extra damage item for percent item penetration. You don’t have to return and it keeps the mobile game faster paced.

@HellsDevil to be fair, wukong is in almost every moba game. also his idea's, like s1 and s2. he's on the moba game Smite with the name 'Sun Wukong'

The copying isn't even the worst problem. MLBB is also pay2win with skins giving bonus stats, and you can also grind permanent stat upgrades in the client so veterans will have stronger champions than newbies.

The shielding ability is litterally among the most common abilities in moba games, you can find it easily on dota too and in others.

Hells im really Happy to see that youre doing Something you like

22:09 Mathilda was released in 2020 while Akshan was in the following year

One has to note that the release dates of champions before saying it’s a “copycat”.

While yes, mlbb still originated as a copycat, but as the years go by, they got improve on how the heroes(champions we call in mlbb), atleast have a twist to the abilities their copying off of, instead of ALL of them being blatant copies (there are MUCH worse copycats out there), and besides that, they've figured out the ingredients on how to make such a successful MOBA game for casuals that dont have access to computers but just their phones. Even tho i didnt get to play wildrift that much either, I think its atleast fair to say that both games are great in their own ways, besides they've already settled their disputes aside a few months ago, so lets stop this war and actually respect eachother's games in their own ways :3

Hayabusa was the first to use that ability before master yi was reworked. Hanzo was debuted in mobile legends back in November 2016 and Yone debuted in League of Legends in August 2020.

also take note of champs that are still not on wr and champ versions between platforms. pc kata ult copies onhits and ryze ult brings along ally champs iirc.

Hells this type of video are different and I love to see more in the future and I hope alot of other audience as well

The feora one doesn't dodge stuff the one getting hit will do the dodging as it does insane amounts of damage

3:25 the characters name is Kagura and she has 3 skills. Her first skill is an aim attack that throws her umbrella and slows down an enemy hit. Her PASSIVE sheilds her when the umbrella returns back to her. Her second skill while she has her umbrella remove cc effects from her. Her ult has two phases first she creates an area where damage will occur then after a few seconds the attack pulls enemys towards her umbrella.

13:02 lesley was released in 2018 while Akshan was still a fetus

While Kagura and Orianna have some similarities, they are also quite different. Kagura is a high mobility mage assassin with two dash abilities, while Orianna is just a team fight mage with zero mobility. I only played ML for like 6 months before WR released and Kagura was my main. Kagura also has two ultimates and two versions of other abilities. She's one of the rare cases where ML actually has a champion/hero with a better and more complex design. To be honest, I wish we have a Mid laner like Kagura in WR, she is so much better and more fun than boring Orianna.

Some here are actually not the same, nor similar at all. Odette and Janna's ultimates are based on the concept of a large AoE ult. However, Odette's deal continuous magic damage to anyone inside of it, whilst's Janna heals allies and pushes enemies away. Not only that, but Odette's ult also has a dash after being activated, allowing her to persuit while ulting. And there's also the case of Hanzo and Yone, which Hanzo actually came first. Saber and Yasuo both seem similar, but they're actually very different if you look at how Saber's passive work, which is why his ult reduces defence. Though cases like Orianna and Kagura are just stupid to defend, it's obvious what happened there. Also, some of the heroes in the video have been changed, too, so there's stuff that can't be said anymore.

for the yasuo dash example the mobile legends character had a timer on enemies they dashed through. Yes a dash is not a unique idea but the specific implementation of dashing through enemies and then having a cool down not on the dash but on each specific enemy you dash through and then that cooldown being represented by a ring around the enemies. Seemed pretty blatant.

You need to understand that ML lost a lawsuit against League for copyright infringement. The courts found that ML was copying. Even if you say, "they're not copying" they were copying. The ideas were stolen.

The one where you said that Vi's 1st ability is a copy but he cant move meanwhile Vi can while charging

Also Popol and Kupa is just basically Skadi from Smite. And to be fair, the invulnerability slashing thing can be seen in other games so can't say it's unique. Juggernaut has it, and probably so do a bunch of katana wielding characters. Also if I'm not mistaken, Hanzo did come out first. Then again, souls leaving the body is not really that out of this world of a concept. Trails left by a character isn't that unique either. Taking no sides here, it seems like the creator of that video frames some skills as a copy cat when they are vastly different. Some skills are indeed copied, but not all of them

I think ml skills are op versions of wr skills. Like warwick and roger.Roger 2nd skill reveal low hp enemys but warwick's only show you trail but you can't see which champion is low hp. You only know that someone is low health and the trail lead you to that low health champ.And akshan and lesley.Lesyley ulti can only be blocked with heros but you can block akshan's with champs,towers,minions and creeps.

28:44 Lolita got reworked she reflects the exact ranged attacks and skills now. She completely got reworked.

Also yone and hanzo, the champopn with the ghost, do have a similar concept, but completely different how the work

As a new player who has played MLBB recently (in 2020), MLBB's old heroes (also known as champions in LOL) skill does copy the exact skill of LOL champions. However, I am glad that they starting to revamp old heroes and giving them new sets of skills to differentiate their skills from the champions. However though, ML still have a long way to go to create best mobile MOBA

most of the so called "copy" are super stretched comparison ex: mathilda and akshan have totally different ability, the creator of the video comparison purposely put mathilda near the wall to make it looks similar, I play Mlbb ,wildrift, LoL and Dota 2 so atleast I know what are the abilities really are that being compared, The creator of the video that Hell watched probably just want to rage bait or start an argument within the communities to help the video go viral, he didnt even explain the effect of the skills that are being compared, if were going to stretched the so called copy we can say that almost half of the abilties of heroes in every Moba came from Dota ex: Master Yi's slash skill is literally Yurnero's Ult

But which game is doing better ..nd wr is still in beta ryt?

The one ultimate similar to tryndamere is different. While it makes him immortal, the main point is that during that phase you heal as much as you deal damage, and no, that champ doesnt have a passive that deals more damage the lower you are.

One thing I hate about ML is not much change throughout the years. I stop playing ML around 4 years ago.When they started to introduce boot for jungle and roaming. I come back after hard breaking with wild rift and played up to mythic then I realized something and the thing why I switch to Wild rift, this game only care about skin and accessories. Literally all i've notice changes in 4 years is theres like one or two item been added. Still no ping of team or enemy spell and game a completely different if you have max emblem or not (in WR terms,its a rune. Yes you need to upgrade emblem to lvl 50 or something to unlock full potential)

I think to be completely fair with these comparisons is you need to really know the full kits of the heroes from Mobile Legends as well as their playstyles. The hero that copied Oriana isn't an exact copy because the timings are completely different with her abilities and her passive. Actually she plays more like Diana rather than Oriana.

The car one has a boost which makes it faster and an ally can ride you aswell

2:59 when I played mobile legends that mage who threw her hat was my most played champ.

I mean, Sun wukong is a mythological character known for his staff and clone abilities, not much you can do about it, but the way the character are played is totally different

I think you should have stuided the mlbb character to know the effects etc. sabers penetration wasnt from his ult, its his passive; when he strikes an enemy with anything, he penetrates the armor

I wish the orig. video creator added ability descriptions when the skill effects are the same

On the positive side I don’t think it really matters it’s kind of a complement when a game is good enough that they need to copycat to have a game

Some of the ML heroes abilities were mispresented like the Kayle one, the ML one places 4 blades for the hero to collect to gain energy deal damage in the dashed area
