11 Tips for Playing Chess TD Mobile Legends (ML) for Beginners

After first launching in November, Chess TD has returned to Mobile Legends Arcade mode with many changes. But don’t worry, in this guide, Kabar Games will explain everything you need to know about powerful tips and tricks for playing Chess TD Mobile Legends (ML) for beginners.

The Chess TD arcade mode in the Mobile Legends game is actually similar to Element TD in Dota 2. The difference is that the Chess TD game system in ML games is similar to an auto battler genre game where players collect gold by killing existing minions.

What is Chess TD Mobile Legends?

Chess TD combines elements of an Auto Chess game and a tower defense game, and you probably already guessed the name. Unlike other game modes in Mobile Legends, you play alone and not with a team and pair up with 5 other random players.

Each starts with 100 hit points, which is your health pool. As soon as it drops to zero, you are eliminated from the competition for first place. You start with 2 coins (the currency in this Chess TD game that you can use to buy units or level up).

You earn extra coins as you play, and you can buy more expensive (and stronger) units as the game progresses. This Chess TD Mobile Legends (ML) game is turn based; Before each round you have some preparation time to buy units, place them and level up to bring more units onto the battlefield.

How to level up

Here are tips for leveling up the Chess TD Mobile Legends (ML) arcade mode. The first is to increase capacity. This happens automatically after a few rounds as you gain experience after each round. However, you can speed up the process by purchasing Coin Experience.

If you start with 2 units, you can increase the capacity up to 9. Having a numerical advantage over your enemies can be a big game changer. You can also level up your unit by buying the same unit 3 times, this unit will become a level 2 unit. To reach the maximum level (3) you will need 9 base units or 3 level 2 units.

Manage resources

Each round you receive a certain amount of gold, depending on whether you defend successfully or not. In addition, you will get extra for every 10 coins you collect. So for beginners like you, the best tip in Chess TD Mobile Legends (ML) is to play sparingly early in the game, and this method usually pays off.

The shop updates every spin unless you manually lock it. Remember to only lock it down if you have a great device in the store that you can’t buy. You can also update the shop manually for the price of 2 coins. But don’t be fooled here!

While it may seem tempting to keep spinning until you get the unit you want, it’s a gamble. Usually you lose all of your coins without getting anything.

In practice, you may only want to roll the dice a few times when things are looking really bad and you can’t use coins to level up. Level 3 units definitely offer great stats, but additional units offer the same thing. So manage your earnings wisely and try to outsmart your opponents.

Synergy units, roles and factions

The synergy unit is still one of the most strategic and powerful tips for playing Chess TD Mobile Legends. But don’t worry if you can’t remember everything, the synergy book serves as the in-game guide in Chess TD ML, which is always available.

Most synergies offer greater improvements for the units collected. For example, snipers get 20% bonus damage and 30% critical strike chance if you have at least 3 of them. However, after you collect 6, the bonus damage and critical strike chance increase to 70%.

With all of these new heroes and synergies, we need to run some tests to see which composition feels the most powerful. The undead will definitely stay on the strong side with 200% bonus damage, and CC will stay relevant too as we all know CC wins the game.

How to place units

Heroes have different attack ranges, similar to ML games. Snipers and mages have a relatively long range, while hunters, tanks and assassins can only affect a small area. That’s not to say that melee units have no value. Instead, they deliver powerful explosions or CC through skills rather than simple attacks.

Even if the battlefield looks different every time, it usually makes sense to place your strongest units in the middle, where they have the maximum impact. Corners work very well, even for melee units, as they allow them to maximize their impact rather than affecting a very small space.

Synergize Attacks & Items

Every few rounds in the Chess TD Mobile Legends (ML) game, you can choose 1 of 3 items to reinforce your attack. These items can give powerful bonuses to specific factions or individual units.

Try to figure out which faction and role you will be focusing on so that you can customize your item selection. But also pay attention to the line-up of your opponent. If you have a lot of CC, get items that will shorten your inspection time. When they have a sniper composition, look for items that will reduce physical damage.

Lineup: attack vs. defense

Everyone loves damage dealers. This applies to Mobile Legends and also to Chess TD. However, tanks actually fulfill 2 important roles that sniper or mage heroes do not. Here are the important roles of tank heroes in Chess TD Mobile Legends:

  1. Tanks offer CC. This becomes valuable for the tower defense space as CC slows down enemies and allows your damage dealer to kill enemy units before they can reach your avatar and reduce your hit points.
  2. Tanks absorb a lot of damage. Usually, when attacking your enemy, tanks can withstand a large amount of damage and eventually pass through the enemy fortress.

Tanks without damage struggle to take down enemy units attacking you. So try to find a good strategy between attack and defense.
