The marksman of MLBB is among the top heroes. These heroes will wait in the lane of the player's choosing with their supporting heroes to defend the towers for their team. However, the problem with marksman heroes is that they do not last long. So, it is better to team them up with more durable options like tanks or mages so that they deal with the enemy attacks while the marksman finishes them off.

  • Tier S: Karrie, Wanwan, Brody, Melissa
  • Tier A: Moskov, Claude, Popol and Kupa, Irithel, Beatrix, Lesley
  • Tier B: Granger, Kimmy, Bruno, Miya, Hanabi
  • Tier C: Yi Sun-Shin, Layla

Thus, they divert the focus of the enemy heroes from the allies, making it easier for the other heroes on your team to attack. The crowd-control abilities of the tank heroes make them the best choice for mid-laners.

  • Tier S: Fredrinn, Khufra, Lolita, Akai
  • Tier A: Gatotkaca, Atlas, Minotaur
  • Tier B: Belerick, Grock, Baxia, Hylos, Gloo, Franco
  • Tier C: Johnson, Uranus. Tigreal

Best support heroes

Support heroes are often neglected in most teams until they have a marksman in the team. However, if you have a marksman, support heroes instantly become the most essential member of your team. These heroes sit in one lane with them and are often seen as the last line of defense. These heroes will either heal the marksman or slow the enemy hero's movement, giving you more time to attack them.

  • Tier S: Mathilda, Kaja, Diggie
  • Tier A: Estes, Floryn, Carmilla, Angela
  • Tier B: Rafaela, Faramis, Nana
  • Tier C: Lolita, Minotaur
