Gord, the underappreciated hero in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, is finally getting the recognition he deserves in professional play. With an impressive win rate in the opening week of MPL PH Season 12, Gord has proven to be a formidable force in the midlane and a potential game-changer in the meta.
In MPL Indonesia Season 12, Rebellion Zion’s SwayLow reintroduced Gord, and now players like Hadji from Blacklist International and Aqua from RSG Philippines have showcased his true potential. These top midlaners have demonstrated how Gord can dominate the game, winning all four matches they played with him.
Gord’s strength lies in his ability to clear minion waves quickly and safely. His Mystic Projectile and Mystic Injunction abilities allow him to deal high area-of-effect damage from a long range, instantly wiping out minions. Additionally, his ultimate skill, Mystic Gush, unleashes a powerful blast of energy that deals substantial magic damage and slows down enemies hit.
What sets Gord apart from other midlane heroes is his range advantage, making him a formidable opponent against poke-damage reliant heroes like Valentina. In all three games where Gord was pitted against Valentina, he emerged victorious every time. Hadji and Aqua demonstrated how to exploit Gord’s range advantage, forcing their opponents to play passively and dominating the lane.
Furthermore, Gord’s ability to disrupt front-to-back compositions makes him a valuable pick in the MPL PH Season 12. His Mystic Favor passive allows him to deal True Damage and Magic Damage to targets hit four times, making even tanky frontlines vulnerable. In a game against Smart Omega, Blacklist utilized Hadji’s Gord to counter Fredrinn, strategically placing his skills in the midst of team fights and securing victory for his team.
With his exceptional performance, Hadji finished the game with ten kills, six assists, and only two deaths, showcasing Gord’s potential to carry the team to victory.
Gord’s emergence as a dominant hero in MPL PH Season 12 has shaken up the meta and caught the attention of players and fans alike. His wave-clearing abilities, range advantage, and disruptive potential make him a force to be reckoned with in the midlane. As the season progresses, it will be exciting to see how teams adapt to this newfound power pick.
