The new patch update for Mobile Legends has arrived in the Advance Server with tons of adjustments and optimization, especially on heroes. This was one of the most awaited updates as it was put on hold due to the MPL. 

In this update, players can witness significant nerfs on those heroes, that were buffed in the last few updates. This is due to their dominance on the lanes and overpowered stats, which were considerably higher than the others.

Without any further delay, let’s take a look at the notes of patch 1.6.26.
