With the term becoming increasingly popular on social media, what's a poke at MLBB? Find out more about the full explanation here!
If you are a MOBA fan, chances are you are familiar with terms such as carry, flank, last hit, gank, counter, etc.
However, in the mobile MOBA scene, especially Mobile Legends, there are certain terms, such as poke in MLBB that have gained popularity, but have a different meaning in this game. So, what does poke mean in MLBB?
In most MOBA games, poke means nudging your opponent. In this case, "poke" refers to the act of gradually destroying the target's health using abilities.
Usually heroes who work well in poking tend to have low cooldown skills and skill shots, abilities that require players to aim manually from a distance by predicting the movement of the target, for example Guinevere's Energy Wave (1).
There are three terms that are often used in the sense of the Mobile Legends game. For more, please read the review below.
The meaning of Poke in the first MLBB game may have been interpreted by many players to hit the enemy. Getting the word Dab that in the big Indonesian dictionary means to touch with the fingertips, etc.
Meanwhile, poke in Legends Mobile has the meaning of using remote skills while keeping your distance from enemy attacks. Using the right boost will cause the enemy to move out of a comfortable area.
Of course, this will benefit you from killing enemies without needing to have enough moves. This skill is included in Poke to Skill 1 Eudora, skill 1 Rafaela, or the Flamshot spell.
Also, not a few also interpret the meaning of poke as short for small points. In general, this term is often seen during games at mythic levels. As is known, mythic levels vary, from mythic 4, mythic 3, mythic 2, mythic 1 and mythic glory.
Usually, this term will be spent when someone dies and murder will insult him by writing the word 'poke'. Which means that people who die still have small points in the first level.
Poke in ML games can also be interpreted as a fast hero CD time. This hero, no doubt, will be able to make it difficult for the enemy during the early matches. You can change enemy nuclei while farming.
But, unfortunately, this hero with the skill of poking has only disadvantages that are not painful or mediocre. Several heroes have skills for poking like Diggie, Nana, and many others.
During the laning phase, poke in MLBB is useful for putting pressure on your opponent to dominate the lane. With continuous damage, the opponent will find it difficult and tends to play more passively.
In team fights, poking makes a major contribution in destroying the target's health slowly. So even before a team fight occurs, the target won't be completely healthy, giving the team an edge over the opponent.
If you are a Mythic player in Mobile Legends, you must have heard of the point system that you see after winning a game. Well, in Indonesia, the term "poke" in this game stands for "small points".
It's unclear when and how it became a term, but many players in the Mobile Legends community use poke to refer to it. Usually used to tease players who are experiencing poor performance in the game.
For example, if a friend or opponent isn't playing well, you tease them by writing “poke” in the chat. Even though the more popular term for this is “noob”, most of Mobile Legends in Indonesia use poke in MLBB to tempt other players who play badly.
The function of poke specialization is found in two conditions, namely, the laning phase and the war phase or team battle. The following is what poke means in ML and what it does:
