Skill Analysis
Angela is a hero who owns a passive and three actives that complement each other to make her a reliable support. In this Angela guide, let’s see what are her abilities in Mobile Legends, and when you can use which skill to get the best out of her.
Passive – Smart Heart
Angela gains 15% extra Movement Speed for 4 seconds each time she casts a skill (up to 30%). When she’s attached to an allied hero, the Movement Speed boost is transferred to the allied hero.
Skill 1 – Love Waves ( Heal, AoE )
Angela sends Love Waves in the target direction, dealing 170–320 (+80% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage to enemies hit, revealing their positions briefly,[duration needed] and applying a stack of Lover’s Mark to them (up to 5 stacks). Each stack of Lover’s Mark increases the damage by 20% and slows enemies hit by 8% for 3 seconds.
The Love Waves also restore 150–200 (+90% Total Magic Power) HP to allied heroes hit. Angela can store up to 5 charges of this skill and the recharge time is affected by Cooldown Reduction.
Skill 2 – Puppet-on-a-String ( Slow, CC )
Angela launches a Puppet String at the target enemy, dealing 300–450 (+40% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage and gradually slowing them up to 80%. If the enemy is still connected to the String after 3 seconds, they’ll be immobilized for 1.5 seconds and dealt 450–675 (+60% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage.
Each stack of Lover’s Mark increases the final damage by 20%.
Skill 3 – Heartguard (Attach, Shield )
Angela begins channelling for 2 seconds, applying a 1200–2000 (+200–400% Total Magic Power) shield that lasts 6 seconds to the target allied hero regardless of distance. After the channelling is complete, she attaches herself to the allied hero for 12 seconds, during which she can cast skills at zero Mana cost. Angela can cast this skill again to cancel the channeling or detach herself from the allied hero. The attaching state will end early if the allied hero is killed.
Best Emblem Set and Spells for Angela
Emblem Set
Angela is popular support in Mobile Legends. She can heal her teammates in team fights by sitting on the shoulders of a teammate. To make Angela’s gameplay efficient in roaming as a support, players are expected to use the Custom Support Emblem for the Healing Effect, Cooldown Reduction and Movement speed. Players can use whichever Talents suits better for their gameplay. However, players have brought up some of the best Emblem/Talent Set-up that is advisable for Angela.Â
The Custom Support Emblem ever since it’s Revamp provides players with access to 3 different talents. Hence, for Angela Emblem Set-up the following setup is expected:
- In the First-Tier Talent, we choose Agility as it provides extra movement speed, primarily useful in the early game rotation to other lanes from mid-lanes. As early gank are important to win the match.Â
- In the Second-Tier Talent, players should choose Pull Yourself Together, as it reduces battle spells and active equipment CD by 15%.
- In the third-tier Talent, we choose the Focusing Mask as it deals damage to an enemy hero and increases an ally hero’s damage by 6%.
Spells
As a support hero in Mobile Legends, Angela has a few battle spells that can be effective in different situations. Here are some of the commonly recommended battle spells for Angela:
- Flicker: Flicker is highly recommended for Angela as her main battle spell. It provides her with an additional escape mechanism, which can be crucial for avoiding enemies and ensuring her safety. Flicker can also help Angela reposition herself to provide better support to her teammates.
- Sprint: Sprint is another viable option for Angela. It can be used to increase her mobility and chase down enemies or quickly reach her teammates in need of support.
- Aegis: Aegis is a defensive battle spell that can provide Angela with a shield, reducing incoming damage and increasing her survivability in team fights.
Best Builds for Angela in Mobile Legends
Most of the heals for Angela come from her 1st skill and shield from Ultimate. So, she is a skill-based hero but without her core, she cannot sustain. Therefore, it is better to build health regeneration items and sustaining items for her. In our guide, we will try out this template with Angela on the Mobile Legends battlefield.
For the First item, players can have the Demon Shoes with Favor. It will give movement speed and mana regeneration, which is needed for Angela to control mana in the early game. For the second item, they can build the Fleeting Time to reduce the CD of ultimate with magic power and HP. For the third item, players can have Dominance Ice to reduce the healing effects and life steals of enemies in the mid-game, it also provides mana physical defence and movement speed. For the fourth item, players can have the Ice Queen Wand to slow down the enemies and it also provides magic power, spell vamp, movement speed, and HP. For the fifth item, you can have the Flask of the Oasis as it gives shield magic power, HP and cooldown reduction. For the sixth one, you can have the Oracle for more HP magic defense and cooldown reduction.Â
Mobile Legends Angela Gameplay Tips
A support hero gameplay is very dynamic throughout the game. Let’s take a look at how Angela can be effective in the early, mid, and late game. Our Angela guide includes the perfect game plan for the early, mid, and late game in Mobile Legends. However, a player must need a good understanding of the map to bring the best out of any hero.
Early game
Skill 2 + Skill 2+ Skill 2+ Basic Attack
Angela’s first skill can be charged up to five charges so don’t be scared to spam the skill early game to poke your enemies. Other than that, it heals your allies along with the wave so they can be aggressive to attack enemies because you are healing them. Being annoying early game is crucial for support heroes, because in later parts of the game when enemies are fed, the support hero can die easily.
Mid game
ULT+ Skill 2 + Skill 2+ Skill 2+ Basic Attack+ Skill 1
Since the early game, Angela has participated in team fights. In mid-game, Angela should already have Fleeting time so she can use her ultimate more frequently. Be with your teammate who kills the most and support him/her (not necessarily carry) as a support responsibility is to help to get kills, not only babysit and carry.
Late game
ULT+ Skill 2 + Skill 2+ Skill 2+ Basic Attack+ Skill 1
Late game is the time Angela seems to be lacking. If no defensive item is owned, players will find her very easy to die, so make sure you build an Immortality. Angela is a must-have member in late-game team fights as her first skill increases damage taken by the opponent significantly, and eases your teammates to finish them off easier.
| Heroes Angela can counter | Heroes that can counter Angela |
| Esmeralda | Natalia |
| Uranus | Helcurt |
| Alucard | Eudora |
| Ruby | Fanny |
| Aldous | Jawhead |
Angela is good against melee heroes who require them to be near Angela. You might realize that most of the heroes are regen or lifesteal heroes. It’s because Angela can reduce their regen by Necklace of Durance, increase damage from teammates to not let them have a chance to regen and immobilize them using skill 2.
The chance of winning a team fight is very low when Angela is not around. Backline intruders like assassins and fighters or burst damage heroes should be given extra attention.
Final Thoughts
Even support heroes are not usually used in ranked matches, Angela stays relevant in the game. Being aggressive early game is important to disrupt the opponent’s farm and participate in team fights no matter what because Angela’s first skill is important to heal, damage, and amplify damage. If you are good at playing Angela, you are considered to be a good support player and pretty much can play other support heroes.
Angela is a solid pick in the current meta and playing her properly players can rank up easily with her in Mobile Legends. You can also refer to our latest tier list to know more about the revamped meta heroes in this current season.
