Let's break down and compare the abilities and damage outputs of Suyou and Balmond.

    • Hold: Deals 280 + (80% Extra Physical Attack) with potential 250% damage increase.

2. Damage Computation

Let’s compute and compare the base damage output of both heroes. We will assume no additional items, so only the base values and skill scalings are relevant.

Balmond Damage Output:

  • Soul Lock: 150-275 + 60% Total Physical Attack (single target).
  • Cyclone Sweep: Base damage per hit: 25-100 + 25% Total Physical Attack (14 hits; max 60% extra damage).
  • Lethal Counter: 150 + 70% Total Physical Attack + 30-45% of target's Lost HP as True Damage.

Suyou Damage Output:

  • Blade Surge (Tap):
    • 150 + 60% Extra Physical Attack (initial throw).
    • 300 + 120% Extra Physical Attack (slash after blink).
    • Total: 450 + 180% Extra Physical Attack.
  • Blade Surge (Hold): 150 + 60% Extra Physical Attack + 300 + 120% Extra Physical Attack.
  • Soul Server (Tap): 290 + 200% Extra Physical Attack.
  • Soul Server (Hold):
    • 180 + 150% Extra Physical Attack (Cleave 1).
    • 180 + 150% Extra Physical Attack (Cleave 2).
    • 360 + 300% Extra Physical Attack (Cleave 3).
    • Total: 720 + 600% Extra Physical Attack.
  • Evil Queller (Tap): 280 + 80% Extra Physical Attack.
  • Evil Queller (Hold): Up to 280 + 250% Extra Physical Attack.

3. Battle Scenario Analysis

Raw Damage Output:

  • Balmond primarily relies on his Cyclone Sweep for sustained damage and his Lethal Counter for burst damage based on the opponent's lost HP.
  • Suyou has higher burst potential, especially with his Soul Server's Hold version and the potential max damage from Evil Queller.

Defense and Sustain:

  • Balmond has high sustain due to his passive, allowing him to heal significantly when killing minions, creeps, or heroes.
  • Suyou has damage reduction in his Immortal form, scaling with Extra Physical Attack, and the ability to heal with Soul Server.

Mobility and Control:

  • Balmond has a gap-closer with Soul Lock, but he has no built-in hard crowd control.
  • Suyou has a blink (Blade Surge - Tap), a stun (Blade Surge - Hold), and high mobility combined with CC.

4. Outcome Analysis

  • Initial Exchange: Suyou's ability to stun and dish out significant burst damage will give him an edge in the early exchanges. The damage reduction from his Immortal form will mitigate Balmond's damage output.
  • Sustain: Balmond could outlast Suyou in extended fights, particularly if he can land kills on minions/creeps or if Suyou's burst is insufficient to finish him off.
  • Burst vs. Sustain: If Suyou's burst from Soul Server (Hold) and Evil Queller (Hold) is well-timed and manages to bring Balmond down before he can heal significantly or retaliate with Lethal Counter, Suyou will have the upper hand. However, if Balmond survives the initial burst and prolongs the fight, his sustain might turn the tide.

CONCLUSION :

  • Suyou has the advantage in terms of burst damage and control, which makes him more likely to win in a quick and decisive skirmish.
  • Balmond, however, excels in sustain and extended fights, meaning that if the fight drags on, he could turn the tide.

Thus, the outcome would heavily depend on how well Suyou manages his burst and whether Balmond can sustain long enough to counterattack effectively.

If the fight is drawn out, Balmond could have a better chance to prevail due to his healing and sustain. But if Suyou plays aggressively and lands his combos effectively, he is more likely to secure the victory quickly.

Suyou offers a dynamic playstyle in Mobile Legends, allowing players to switch between Mortal and Immortal forms to adapt to any situation. Whether you're comparing;
