Here’s how to cut lanes in Mobile Legends
EXP laners are often tasked with cutting lanes due to their optimal balance of damage and survivability.
To execute this strategy effectively, ensure that the enemy jungler or midlaner is not present in your lane to minimize the risk of being ganked while between enemy heroes.
Additionally, prioritize EXP lane heroes with rapid wave-clear abilities like X.Borg or Benedetta.

Once you’ve cleared the initial wave, observe the map to anticipate the arrival of the next minion wave.
Proceed towards the enemy jungle, positioning yourself between the outer and middle turrets to intercept and clear most of the minions.
For a more aggressive approach, you can advance between the base turret and the middle turret, although this tactic carries higher risk due to increased vulnerability to enemy team engagement.
Only attempt this when you observe the majority of the enemy team contesting objectives like Turtle or ganking in a different lane.

You can also cut lanes when you’ve taken out the enemy EXP laner. If that happens, having your jungler or midlaner nearby can help you quickly destroy the outer turret, giving your team a big advantage.
