Abandoned as a child and raised by a smilodon in the jungle, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang marksman Irithel fights alongside her companion, Leo, to dominate the battlefield.
The Jungle Heart has a unique ability to attack while moving, making her one of the most mobile damage dealers in the game.
With the right build, skills, and emblem choices, she can dominate team fights and shred through enemies with ease.
In this ONE Esports guide, we dive into everything you need to master Irithel, from her optimal item build to deadly combos that can turn the tide of any battle.
Irithel’s skills in Mobile Legends
Passive – Jungle Heart
Irithel and Leo’s immaculate teamwork allows her to shoot while moving. Each Basic Attack will shoot several crossbow bolt(s) (but takes longer to refill) that deal Physical Damage per bolt (inherits a portion of Attack Effects). Moving will build up Jungle Heart, up to a maximum units, and cause the next Basic Attack to unleash an additional bolt.
First skill – Strafe
Irithel launches a volley of arrows on the target area, dealing physical damage to enemies within, and reducing their physical defense for a few seconds.
Second skill – Force of the Queen
Leo lets out a piercing roar, dealing physical damage to nearby enemies, and slowing them for a few seconds.
Ultimate – Heavy Crossbow
Irithel orders Leo to leap in the target direction and empowers her crossbow for several seconds. For the duration, she gains extra movement speed, and her basic attacks shoot enhanced crossbow bolts, dealing huge physical damage to the target and nearby units.
A comprehensive guide on how to play Irithel in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang
Recommended battle spell
Sprint is the most optimal battle spell if you’re playing as Irithel, since it offers a substantial surge in movement speed along with immunity to slows. This greatly synergizes with the passive, allowing you to frequently launch additional bolts during team fights.
Alternatively, it serves as a valuable tool for evading oncoming enemies.
Alternatively, you can also opt forFlicker. As a marksman who relies on positioning, the battle spell allows her to escape dangerous situations, reposition during team fights, or chase down fleeing enemies to secure kills.
Combined with her ability to attack while moving, it enhances her mobility, enabling her to maintain safe distances from threats while continuing to deal consistent damage.
Recommended emblem
We recommend selecting the Assassin emblem over the Marksman emblem, as it provides extra movement speed, which is important for Irithel’s passive.
Additionally, it gives substantial amounts of adaptive penetration and adaptive attack.
Pick Fatal in the first tier to increase critical hit chance and damage, and Bargain Hunter to reduce item costs and complete your build faster.
ChooseQuantum Chargein the final tier. This core talent periodically boosts your movement speed when you deal damage using basic attacks, allowing you to leverage Jungle Heart. Moreover, it restores a particular portion of your HP, improving your endurance, especially in the laning stage.
Irithel best build
To effectively fulfill your role as one of the primary damage dealer in the team, it’s crucial to invest in items that improve your capability to unleash burst damage.
Start by acquiring Tough Boots, then buy Haas Claws and Windtalker as your initial core items to bolster your attack speed, critical chance, and physical attack. Notably, Windtalker also supplies extra movement speed.
Transitioning to the mid-game, purchaseMalefic Gunwhich is great item for Irithel, as it enhances her offensive capabilities by boosting Physical Attack, Attack Speed, and Lifesteal.
Its unique passives are perfectly suited for her playstyle: one increases her attack range after using a skill, allowing her to deal damage from safer distances, while the other boosts her Movement Speed with each Basic Attack, synergizing with her ability to attack while moving.
After this, get Berserker’s Fury to increase your additional Physical Attack and Crit Chance, which essentially makes you a killing machine.
Close out your build withGreat Dragon Spear, which packs substantial physical attack, crit chance, and cooldown reduction. Additionally, its unique passive, Supreme Warrior, further elevates your movement speed after casting your ultimate.
The best build for Irithel in Mobile Legends
Easy combos to learn
During the laning phase, pressure your enemy by hitting them with Strafe, then follow it up with Force of the Queen and basic attacks.
However, if you find yourself in a challenging matchup, it’s advisable to play safe, and use Strafe primary to secure the last hit on minions.
Once you acquire Heavy Crossbow, use it to leap to an optimal offensive position, and enhance your basic attacks to deal massive damage in clashes.
Be sure to activate Sprint when you trigger your ultimate, so you will further increase your movement speed, leading to quick recharging of Jungle Heart.
Given your vulnerability as a marksman, it’s vital to be vigilant about your positioning in battles. This ensures you optimize your damage output, and remain alive afterwards for objective taking.
