Hey guys! Mobile Legends: Bang Bang is way more fun when you’re playing with your friends, right? Coordinating attacks, covering each other, and celebrating victories together—nothing beats that! But sometimes, getting everyone on the same team can be a bit tricky. Don't worry; I'm here to walk you through everything you need to know about playing together in Mobile Legends, step by step.

Adding Friends in Mobile Legends

Before you can dive into epic battles with your buddies, you need to add them as friends in the game. Here’s how you do it:

  1. Open Mobile Legends: Fire up the game on your phone.
  2. Go to Your Profile: Tap on your profile picture, usually located in the top-left corner of the screen. This will take you to your profile page.
  3. Access the Friends Tab: Look for the “Friends” tab. It’s usually represented by an icon of two people. Tap on it!
  4. Add Friends: You’ll see a button that says “Add Friends.” Tap that, and you’ll have a couple of options:
    • Search by ID: If you know your friend’s in-game ID, type it into the search bar and hit enter. Their profile should pop up, and you can send them a friend request.
    • Search by Name: You can also search by their in-game name. Just type it in and search. Keep in mind that there might be multiple players with similar names, so make sure you’re adding the right person!
    • Suggested Friends: The game might also suggest friends based on your contacts or players you’ve recently played with. Scroll through the list and see if your friend is there.

Once you’ve sent a friend request, all your friend has to do is accept it. You’ll then see them in your friends list, and you’re one step closer to teaming up!

Inviting Friends to Play

Alright, you’ve got your friends added. Now, how do you actually invite them to play with you? There are a few ways to do this, depending on the game mode you want to play.

Classic, Ranked, and Brawl Modes

These are the most common game modes, and inviting friends is super easy:

  1. Select Your Mode: On the main screen, choose the game mode you want to play—Classic, Ranked, or Brawl.
  2. Create a Team: Look for the “Invite” button. It’s usually located on the right side of the screen. Tapping this will open your friends list.
  3. Invite Your Friends: Select the friends you want to invite by tapping on their names. A little checkmark should appear next to their names to show they’ve been invited.
  4. Wait for Them to Join: Once you’ve sent the invites, just sit tight and wait for your friends to accept. You’ll see their avatars pop up next to yours as they join the team.
  5. Start the Game: Once everyone’s ready, the team leader (usually the person who created the team) can hit the “Start” button to launch the game.

Pro-Tip: Make sure everyone is online and ready to play before sending invites. This avoids any delays or frustrations.

Custom Mode

Custom Mode is perfect for practicing strategies, trying out new heroes, or just having fun with specific rules. Here’s how to invite friends to a Custom Mode game:

  1. Go to Custom Mode: From the main screen, select “Custom” mode.
  2. Create or Join a Room: You can either create your own room or join one that a friend has already set up.
    • Creating a Room: Tap “Create Room,” and you’ll be able to set the game mode, map, and other rules. Once you’ve configured everything, you’ll get a room ID.
    • Joining a Room: If your friend has already created a room, ask them for the room ID. Then, tap “Join Room” and enter the ID.
  3. Invite Friends: Once you’re in the room, you’ll see an “Invite” button. Tap it to open your friends list and invite your buddies.
  4. Start the Game: After everyone has joined, the room creator can start the game.

Another Pro-Tip: Custom Mode is great for practicing team compositions and strategies without affecting your Ranked stats.

Playing Ranked Together

Playing Ranked with friends can be both rewarding and challenging. Coordination is key, and it’s a great way to climb the ranks. Here are some tips for playing Ranked together:

  1. Understand Rank Restrictions: Mobile Legends has rank restrictions for playing Ranked together. Players can only team up if they are within a certain rank range of each other. For example, a Mythic player can’t team up with a Warrior player.
  2. Communicate: Communication is crucial in Ranked. Use voice chat or in-game chat to coordinate your moves, call out enemy positions, and plan your strategy. Effective communication can make or break a game.
  3. Coordinate Roles: Before the game starts, discuss who will play which role. Having a balanced team composition is essential for success. Make sure you have a tank, a marksman, a mage, a fighter, and a support.
  4. Practice Together: Don’t jump straight into Ranked without practicing together first. Play a few Classic or Custom games to get a feel for each other’s playstyles and strategies.
  5. Stay Positive: Ranked can be stressful, especially if you’re on a losing streak. Stay positive, encourage each other, and focus on improving your gameplay. Tilt is real, so avoid it at all costs!.

Voice Chat and Communication

Speaking of communication, let’s talk about voice chat. Mobile Legends has an built-in voice chat feature that can be a game-changer when playing with friends. Here’s how to use it:

  1. Enable Voice Chat: Before the game starts, make sure voice chat is enabled in the settings menu. Go to Settings > Basic and look for the voice chat options.
  2. Join Voice Chat: During the hero selection screen or in the game, you’ll see a voice chat icon. Tap it to join the voice chat channel.
  3. Communicate Clearly: Speak clearly and concisely. Call out enemy positions, gank opportunities, and objective timers. The more information you share, the better.

If you prefer using external voice chat apps like Discord or WhatsApp, that’s fine too. Just make sure everyone is on the same channel and can communicate effectively.

Benefits of Playing Together

Playing Mobile Legends with friends isn’t just fun; it also has several benefits:

  • Improved Coordination: Playing with the same group of friends regularly improves your coordination and teamwork. You’ll start to understand each other’s playstyles and anticipate their moves.
  • Better Strategies: When you’re playing with friends, you can develop and execute more complex strategies. You can try out different hero combinations, lane rotations, and objective control tactics.
  • Increased Enjoyment: Let’s face it: winning is more fun when you’re celebrating with friends. Playing together makes the game more enjoyable, even if you’re on a losing streak.
  • Learning Opportunities: Playing with more experienced friends can help you improve your skills. They can give you tips and advice on hero builds, item choices, and gameplay strategies.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Sometimes, things don’t go as planned. Here are some common issues you might encounter when trying to play with friends, along with troubleshooting tips:

  • Unable to Send Friend Requests: If you can’t send friend requests, make sure you’re entering the correct ID or name. Also, check your privacy settings to ensure you’re not blocking friend requests.
  • Friends Not Appearing Online: If your friends aren’t appearing online, they might be in a different region or server. Make sure you’re both on the same server.
  • Unable to Join the Same Team: If you can’t join the same team, make sure you’re within the rank restrictions for Ranked mode. Also, check your internet connection to ensure you’re not experiencing lag or disconnection issues.
  • Voice Chat Not Working: If voice chat isn’t working, check your microphone settings and make sure Mobile Legends has permission to access your microphone. Also, ensure your internet connection is stable.

Conclusion
