Mastering Hanabi in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang is not a matter of a couple of skating rinks. To unlock its potential and feel all the subtleties of the gameplay, you will have to invest dozens or even hundreds of hours.
At the beginning of the game, Hanabi is weak: few stats, no mobility. But if you live to a late stage, her damage turns her into a real teamfight machine. Especially if you use Ninjutsu: Equinox with the Purify spell, which adds stability. However, in order to play confidently in the rankings, and especially in Mythic, you will have to feel your positioning perfectly and choose the right goals.
If you’re ready to take on the challenge, check out our detailed guide: build, emblems, spells, and tips for playing Hanabi.

Hanabi Skills in Mobile Legends
Passive – Ninjutsu: Petal Barrage
Each auto attack and Hanabi skill releases petals that bounce off and hit other enemies.
- Passivation is ideal for harass. Hit the enemy at every opportunity — you will force him to withdraw or go to the base.
- The first ricochet does the main damage, the subsequent ones do less. It’s always better to focus the hero directly.
- Towers do not activate bounces, so you can push without fear of getting aggro.
Skill 1 – Ninjutsu: Equinox
By activating the Scarlet Shadow technique, Hanabi gains a shield. While he’s working, her running and attacking speed increases, and she also becomes immune to control.
- This is the main skill of the hero, download it first.
- Turn it on before the teamfight, so as not to get into the camp. But he does not remove the control already imposed.
- It can also be used to attack — acceleration and shield make Hanabi very resilient. With items for vampirism, she replenishes almost all HP in seconds.
- The shield’s maximum power is limited to half of her health.
Skill 2 – Ninjutsu: Soul Scroll
Hanabi throws an energy kunai, which deals damage and slows down enemies. All targets hit receive a mark, and attacks on them deal full damage.
- The main source of damage. Use it whenever an enemy is trading.
- The skill has four bounces, each of which leaves a mark. This enhances the Petal Barrage.
- It also works on creeps, which makes it easier to clean the line.
- It does not burn the hero in the bushes, but the damage passes.
- CD is only 6 seconds long, so they spam them more often in the liner.
Ulta – Forbidden Jutsu: Higanbana
Hitting the enemy, the ulta immobilizes him. A second later, a flower blooms on the spot, which causes AoE damage and can hook other heroes.
- Great for pulling enemies out of the bushes.
- Autocast only works for heroes, it doesn’t work for creeps.
- It is best used when the enemies are standing in a pile — the chain effect is able to turn the battle around.
How to play for Hanabi
Since Hanabi is completely dependent on auto attacks, the Inspire spell greatly increases her damage in leyte. It significantly enhances DPS and gives you an advantage in fights.
But Inspire takes away mobility. If the enemies are pressing or the team has little control, it is better to take Flicker to escape or change position at a critical moment.
The choice depends on your style and situation in the game: Inspire — for maximum damage, Flicker — for safety.

The best build on Hanabi
The Hanabi passive allows you to apply the effects of objects. They work especially well:
- Corrosion Scythe
- Demon Hunter Sword
- Golden Staff
Blade of Despair and Malefic Roar are perfect for leyte damage.
In long—range skating rinks, you can add protection – Immortality or Wind of Nature if the enemy shooter has entered the rearmament.
Recommended build:
- Swift Boots
- Corrosion Scythe
- Demon Hunter Sword
- Golden Staff
- Blade of Despair
- Malefic Roar
Simple combos
Spam is on the line Soul Scroll + Auto attacks to harass the enemy. Don’t go too far without support. If the enemy responds with aggression, turn on Equinox.
In teamfights, aim the ulta at the initiators or at a cluster of enemies. Then throw Soul Scroll, activate Inspire and spam with auto attacks. Leave Equinox as protection from assassins.
Position decides everything: stay behind, but always in the attack zone. Then Hanabi will fully reveal himself as a powerful marksman.
