About Itembuild

Who we are, how our recommendations are made, and why you can trust them.

What is Itembuild?

Itembuild.com is a free draft assistant and item build tool for Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB). It helps players make better decisions during the pick-ban phase and in-game: which hero to pick or ban, which items to build, and which emblem and battle spell to bring — all adjusted to your lane, your team composition, and the enemy lineup.

The site also publishes written guides that explain MLBB fundamentals, drafting strategy, itemization, and macro play, so players can understand the reasoning behind the recommendations instead of just following them blindly.

How our recommendations work

Every build, pick, and ban suggestion on this site is produced by a scoring engine that we develop and maintain ourselves. The engine combines several data sources:

  • Hero attributes — damage type, scaling, stat priorities, role, and lane data for every MLBB hero.
  • Counter and synergy relationships — which heroes and items are strong or weak against each other, and why.
  • Item and emblem properties — what each item actually does (penetration, anti-heal, on-hit effects, and so on) so counters are matched to real needs.
  • Automated checks — tests run the engine against known situations (tanky lineups, heavy healing, burst damage) to catch item choices that make no sense.

When you add enemy heroes in the draft assistant, the engine recalculates in real time — adding penetration against tanky lineups, anti-heal against sustain, or defensive items against burst compositions.

Keeping data accurate

MLBB changes with every patch. We update hero, item, and emblem data as the game evolves, and check the engine's output with automated tests. If you spot a recommendation that looks wrong, use the report feature in the draft assistant — feedback like this directly improves the engine.

Who is behind Itembuild?

Itembuild is built and maintained by najihmld, a software developer from Indonesia. I have played Mobile Legends since around 2018, and my highest rank is Mythic. I am not a pro player, and I do not claim pro-level knowledge of item builds.

That is why the builds here are not my personal opinion. The engine calculates them from hero and item data, and the method is explained openly. If a recommendation looks wrong, tell me and I will check it.
