You know it’s going to be a wild ride when your enemy has a toy for a weapon.
Ciciis anEXP lanehero inMobile Legends: Bang Bangwho excels in pick-offs and killing enemy carries in the backline using her deadly yo-yo.
All her skills are single-target damage, except for her ultimate which lets her attack two enemies at once while pulling them closer together.
Unlike many fighters who have solid wave-clear capabilities, Cici doesn’t have any, which will be a new experience for experienced fighter mains looking to play her.
If you want to master the Buoyant Performer, here’s an in-depth guide on the best battle spell and emblem, best build, and skill combos for Cici.

A comprehensive guide on how to play Cici in Mobile Legends
Recommended battle spell
As the EXP laner of the team, Vengeance is a great choice because it helps you survive longer in fights by reflecting some of the damage you take back to your attackers.
This fits well with the hero’s ability to handle a lot of damage, making her hard to take down.
Sprint is also a good option as it gives you the mobility to either chase enemies or escape from danger.
This spell is useful because Cici often needs to move quickly to stay effective in fights.
Both battle spells help Cici stay alive and be more useful in battles, matching her adaptable playstyle.
Recommended emblems and talents
As both the team’s frontliner and damage dealer, opting for the Fighter Emblem is ideal for Cici. This emblem offers essential stats to enhance her survivability in team fights, including Spell Vamp and Hybrid Defense.
Regarding talents, prioritize Inspire for the extra Cooldown Reduction and Festival of Blood for Spell Vamp.
The core talent for Cici should be Brave Smite, as it significantly contributes to her durability during the laning phase.
It’s easier to trigger since Cici’s skills have low cooldowns and don’t rely on mana, ensuring effective sustain in battles.
Cici best build
The primary focus when building Cici should be on cooldown reduction and a balance between damage and durability.
Start by prioritizingWar Axefor its cooldown reduction and the added damage synergy with her offensive skills. Pair this with the Brute Force Breastplate which gives you a solid combination of offense, defense, and mobility, enhancing your ability to zone enemies out.
As the game progresses into the mid-game, Oracle becomes essential for amplifying the hero’s shield effects and providing substantial health regeneration. This makes you harder to kill and allows you to sustain longer in team fights.
Increase your kill potential by purchasing Hunter Strike next. The item offers an extra burst of damage and mobility, giving her the edge in both chasing down opponents and repositioning during engagements.
Round out your build by getting Blade Armor or Antique Cuirass depending on the enemy composition. Both items boost your Physical Defense and provide unique effects.
Blade Armorreflects damage to attackers, effectively countering enemy marksmen and high Physical Damage dealers.
On the other hand, Antique Cuirass’ passive, Deter, reduces the attacker’s Physical Attack by a particular percentage for a few seconds when you are struck by their skill.
If you want to play more defensively, you can swap the item for Immortality so you can resurrect when taken down.

Tips and easy combos to learn
In the laning phase, freeze the lane by positioning yourself at the back of the enemy minion wave, forcing the opposing EXP laner to get an advantage in positioning.
Utilize Yo-Yo Blitz whenever the enemy hero approaches. If the enemy also has a strong early game, focus on last-hitting minions without pushing too far to avoid exposing yourself to potential ganks.
Upon reaching level four, prioritize maxing Performer’s Delight and keep an eye on theTurtlespawn on your side. Contest theLordand assist the ally jungler in securing it.
Optimize your combo by initially maxing your passive ability, then engaging with Buoyant Bounce and Yo-Yo Blitz in team fights.
If there are two or more enemies, manually direct the ultimate, Curtain Call, toward the enemy carry while dealing damage with Yo-Yo Blitz.
Always ensure you have full stacks of Performer’s Delight before entering fights for maximum effectiveness.
