Mobile Legends Yve guide: Best build, skills, emblem, combos

Updated on April 24, 1:30 p.m. (GMT+8): Added relevant guides.

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang mage, Yve, the Astrowarden is clad in cosmic purple. She is a spell caster with one of the most unique ultimates in the game.

Using her first two skills, you’ll be able to poke down enemy heroes from a safe distance.

Her ultimate, Real World Manipulation, is a minigame in itself that’s fun. When to use this, and how much you can get out of it, will determine how effective you are at Yve.

Yve’s skills in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang

Passive – Galactic Power

Yve gains a stack of Galactic Power each time she deals damage to enemy heroes with Void Blast and Void Crystal, capped at 10 stacks.

Each stack of Galatic Power allows Yve to launch an extra attack on the next Real World Manipulation cast and increases the amount of shield gained by 5%.

• The sole purpose of her passive is to boost the number of times she can tap or slide when her ultimate is active.
• Charge up Galatic Power by hitting enemy heroes with your first and second skill.
• You cannot gain stacks from hitting minions or monsters.
• There is no cooldown to your passive, so you can charge it up any time up to a maximum of ten stacks. Once you hit ten stacks and you cast Real World Manipulation, you’ll get 15 plus ten, meaning 25 times to tap or slide within the duration.

First skill – Void Blast

Yve detonates Galactic Energy in a designated area, dealing Magic Damage to enemies in the area and extra Magic Damage to those in the center.

Successfully hitting an enemy grants Yve 55% extra Movement Speed (halved if non-hero enemy is hit) that decays over one second.

If an enemy hero is hit in the center of the area, the countdown of this skill is reduced by 0.5 seconds.

• Void Blast deals AoE damage in a circle. Note the difference between the inner and outer circle, where enemies in the center take extra Magic Damage.
• As such, it’s beneficial to manually cast this skill. For maximum push power, harass enemies in the lane by landing the center of Void Blast on them when they walk up to the minion wave, simultaneously dealing damage to minions.
• This is your bread and butter, so max this skill first after your ultimate.

Second skill – Void Crystal

Yve summons a void crystal at the target location, dealing Magic Damage to nearby enemies.

Used again: The crystal radiates materialized energy in the target direction for 2.7 seconds, dealing Magic Damage every 0.45s to enemies hit and slowing them by 50%.

Enemies hit multiple ties are slowed by an extra 5% for each hit after the first (up to 75%).

• There are two parts to this skill. The first summons a void crystal to a location which does Magic Damage to targets hit within the AoE circle.
• You can then press your second skill again within the time given, and drag it out in the direction you want in order to create a rectangle area that does continuous damage and slow them. Manually cast this for the best results.
• The animation looks similar to Benedetta’s ultimate, Alecto: Final Blow, but is purple and has a smaller area.

Ultimate – Real World Manipulation

Yve creates a starfield in a designated direction that lasts for 15 seconds and gains a shield. Within the duration, you can tap or swipe the screen to attack up to 15 times.

Tap: Deals Magic Damage in a designated area in the starfield.

Slide: Deals Magic Damage every 0.45 seconds to enemies in the target area for 2.7 seconds and slows them by 75%.

Enemies leaving or entering the Starfield will be immobilized for 0.8 seconds (only once against the same target).

Yve cannot be displaced while the Starfield is active, and the Starfield will remain even if Yve is controlled (except for suppression).

• Always manually cast this ability to view the area your starfield covers (7×7 grid) to position it strategically. Once it appears, you can view the total number of times you can tap or slide at the bottom of the screen, and the amount of time (15 seconds) before your ultimate wears off.
• To cancel your ultimate, click the “Cancel Cast” button at the top right-hand corner.
• There are only two actions you can take, tapping and sliding. Notice the large damage difference between the two. Sliding deals about 30% of the damage from tapping, but deals continuous damage with slow effects.
• You should always combo both sliding and tapping. Slow down enemies by sliding before chaining it by tapping on single squares to finish them off.
• Tapping once on a square will consume one charge of the number of times you can case your Ultimate. So if you have 15 stacks, you can tap once a maximum of 15 times. Sliding across multiple squares without lifting your finger also costs one charge.
• Only Kaja, Franco, and Barats, who possess skills that suppress, can cancel her ultimate.
• Other types of crowd control such as stuns will affect Yve, preventing her from tapping or sliding, but will not cancel her ultimate.
• You won’t be able to cast any other skills when your ultimate is active. Hence, Real World Manipulation is a true minigame for you to master!

A comprehensive guide on how to play Yve

Recommended Battle Spell

The recommended default Battle Spell for Yve is Flameshot, which helps you finish off enemies early in the game.

As she does not have any natural ability to escape, Flicker is also a good option. Choose between the two based on your own playstyle.

Recommended Emblem and talents set

Naturally, Mage Emblem works best with Yve. As she excels at poking and kiting, you can take Agility to and Wilderness Blessing to increase your movement speed.

As for her core talent, pick Impure Rage for the burn effect, which goes well with Glowing Wand.

Best build for Yve in Mobile Legends

Even though Yve’s base movement speed slightly above average, getting boots early allows you to kite more smoothly, so prioritize that. The recommended default equipment build in-game is a sustained damage build.

If you prefer burst, swap out Enchanted Talisman and Arcane Boots for Demon Shoes to ensure you have enough mana, and Ice Queen Wand for the slow.

This item is essential for Yve, since you’ll need to continuously reposition her in order to poke out enemies whilst taking the least amount of damage for favorable trades.

You can finish your item build in the late game and Winter Truncheon for the survivability in team fights.

Best build for Yve in Mobile Legends

• Magic Shoes
• Enchanted Talisman
• Ice Queen Wand
• Glowing Wand
• Divine Glaive
• Winter Truncheon

Easy combos to learn

To maximize her damage, always chain your first and second skill combo with basic attacks in between cooldowns. A solid basic combo to master is Void Blast into Void Crystal, basic attack, Void Blast, then basic attack.

Since Yve’s ultimate count increases with her passive, it’ll be good to combo your first and second skill to get ten stacks before finishing off with your ultimate.

Having ally tanks with hard crowd control that help to keep opponents within your grid whilst blocking incoming enemy crowd control for you is highly beneficial.
