Mobile Legends: Bang Bangassassin hero Helcurt is a master of stealth and darkness.
Using his ultimate, Dark Night Falls, he can greatly reduce the vision of enemies across the map, enabling him to discreetly kill his target.
He can quickly close the gap against an opponent with Shadow of Styx, and get the easy kill with Hidden Terror and Deadly Stinger.
His passive allows him to heal HP and have increased movement speed whenever he is not seen by the enemy map. This makes him incredibly efficient, as he does not have to recall back to base anymore and just heal his lost HP in the jungle.
In this ONE Esports guide, we have created a list of heroes you’re able to pick against this pesky assassin effectively.
