What about Core Heroes?

Core heroes are called the way they’re called because of how important they are in a team. Sure, you can play the perfect game as a support or as a mage, but winning the game still mainly depends more than anything else on how the core position would play out and carry. That being said, here are the best Mobile Legends core heroes to master if you want to be the one to bring your team to victory.

He has high single-hero damage output that allows him to dominate the jungle
