Bopel.News – Mobile Legends Khaleed guide
Khaleed, the Desert Scimitar, is a Mobile Legends: Bang Bang fighter hero who commands the sands.
His most unique trait as a fighter is that his skills deal AoE damage. Combined with his passive and repositioning abilities with Desert Tornado, he can be very sticky.
Khaleed’s skills in Mobile Legends
Khaleed accumulates Desert Power while moving. After Desert Power is fully charged, he will glide on sand, increasing Movement Speed, making his next Basic Attack Basic Attack deal extra Physical Damage to the target (cannot critically strike), and reducing the target’s Movement Speed for a duration.
- When Sand Walk is available, it will automatically cause Khaleed to dash towards your targeted hero or nearest enemy unit.
- His passive’s enhanced basic attack damage, its dash, and slow trail is crucial to your entire combo, so always weave it in.
- Aim well so that the sand wave trail hits multiple enemies. It is a great tool for opening an engage and slowing down multiple enemies due to its linear AoE slow. It also helps you gap close as it gives Khaleed extra movement speed.
- When running away, the added movement speed helps Khaleed to disengage.
First skill – Desert Tornado
Khaleed whirls his scimitar, dealing Physical Damage to enemies in the area and pulling them toward him. This skill can be used up to several time(s) in a row. This skill deals only a percetange of damage to Minions and Creeps.
- Desert Tornado deals damage in an AoE circle around Khaleed, similar to Yu Zhong’s first skill, Dragon Tail. It is Khaleed’s bread and butter.
- When you use Desert Tornado, you can reposition Khaleed after each cast. Your split-second choice of where to reposition after each cast will make or break your combo. When you reposition, remember to weave an auto attack in between.
- While you can choose not to reposition by not moving your movement wheel, you’ll definitely need to during fights.
- Use Sand Walk and Desert Tornado in lane for faster wave clear.
Second skill – Quicksand Guard
Khaleed protects himself with the power of the quicksand, restoring a percentage of his lost HP and Desert Power for the duration, and reducing damage taken. While channeling, quicksand appears under his feet, slowing the enemy. This skill is a Focused Cast. Any other controls will interrupt this skill.
Instead of recalling, you can use Quicksand Guard to regenerate HP during the laning phase.
Quicksand Guard locks Khaleed in place, and enemy heroes can use crowd control to knock him out of it which stops the HP regeneration, so beware!
The timing on when (and where) to use this skill separates great Khaleed players from good Khaleed players. Knowing how much damage you can absorb based on the amount of health regenerated is a decisive factor that could turn team fights around. Not to mention, the added Desert Power that can lead to another enhanced auto attack combo.
Due to the defensive nature of this skill, it is very situational and not always required in every combo.
