When is the release date for Suyou in MLBB?
Suyou will make his debut in MLBB on Sept. 21 with the release of patch 1.8.90. This highly anticipated addition will bring in the 126th hero of the game, an Assassin with a skill set that combines burst damage, mobility, and defensive capabilities.
Suyou MLBB Hero Overview
Inspired by ancient verses from the region of Zhu’an, Suyou embodies a physical force and spiritual figure in MLBB. His unique abilities, including the ability to shift between mortal and immortal states, offer players a wide range of strategic possibilities, making him a formidable asset to any lineup.
Suyou’s lore is rooted in exorcism folk dances from Zhu’an, with ancestral verses influencing his weapons, masks, and skills. According to Moonton Games, Suyou wields three main weapons: twin blades, a battle halberd, and a longbow, each representing a different aspect of himself, providing players with diverse combat experiences.
Alongside Suyou, another hero named Lukas is set to join the MLBB roster in the 1.9.08 update. You can find a detailed guide on Lukas here.
Suyou’s Abilities
Suyou’s skill set focuses on mobility, crowd control, and devastating AOE damage, with each skill presenting different states based on how they are cast. These skills promote mastery and adaptability, allowing players to maximize damage output or survivability based on the battle’s progression.
