A magician (abbreviated as mage) is a hero with a longer range, ability-based area of effect damage, and crowd control that they may utilize to strike from a distance. Mages primarily focus on magic skills that deals magic damage, usually burst damage, and as a consequence, they spend a lot of gold on equipment that allows them to do more damage and have shorter skill cooldowns. Mage is a type of role that has high magic power and high CD in skills, specializing in dealing with magic damage with their skills. This role usually has low durability thus is often the target in team fights, needing protection. Most heroes in this role have crowd control abilities or have high burst damage.

Esmeralda
Mage Role
Tank Role
Tanks heroes are the most durable among all in mobile legends. These front-line giants help in attacking enemies. They're usually found leading the charge, choosing the right times and situations to initiate aggression. Many tanks can also protect their more fragile teammates by stunning or pushing around dangerous foes and limiting their damage potential. In mobile legends, most classes of heroes are really versatile in terms of abilities and with the item crafting variations a " tank " can be played as a DPS if you choose the right equipment. Usually, tanks are laning on the bottom tower. Tank has high defense and hit point, but low damage. When used properly, a tank could be the strongest hero in the game.
A tank is a type of role that has high HP and high defense while having a very low attack. This position is always at the front by acting as a shield against enemies, taking the damage. With their durability, they're very good for dividing the enemy formation and allowing the damage dealers to poke the opponents while you absorbing damage for them, thus they are really useful in assisting teammates. They will typically have these assets:
- Naturally bulky, higher natural HP, Magic Resistance, and Armor.
- Some form of crowd control (CC), usually a stun, slow, or taunt.
- Great synergy (due to abilities) with certain defensive items, making it very desirable to get them.
- Most tanks have some sort of initiation; an ability to open up the fight giving their team an advantage.
Regen Role
Regen is the specialty assigned to heroes, who usually have the ability to regenerate HP for themselves or allies, without the need of Physical Lifesteal, Magic Lifesteal and Spell Vamp from the Equipment Shop or select Emblems & Talents that may grant the hero any sort of healing. Regen Heroes posses skills that allow them to heal themselves or their own team or heroes that have a skill that benefits/provides Physical Lifesteal, Magic Lifesteal, and Spell Vamp to themselves.
Mixed Damage Role
Mixed Damage is a specialty assigned to heroes that skills benefits from both Physical Attack and Magic Power, they can also deal both Physical Damage and Magic Damage that allows them to have a more diverse and strategic gameplay on which they can adapt during a match and combo certain emblems or equipment that normally wouldn't be possible.
Quick Note: She is capable of being a powerful tank, a roaming traveler, or a damage-dealing mage. She is effective against close-quarters fighters, tanks, and heroes who rely on shields, such Johnson, Diggie, and Hanabi. Selena and Fanny-type heroes with great burst damage and mobility are weak against her.

Story of Esmeralda
Mysterious astrologer”
Born into a family of Agelta astrologers, she is the greatest astrologers on the Land of Dawn. Through the treasure star-moon box, she learned the fact that the tyrant Khufra was about to wake up. The re-sealing of Khufra became her new mission as an astrologer.
Lore
The astrologers, who have constantly been observing astrospace, possess the occult abilities to explain and predict everything in the world, including both about their processes and results. To become an astrologer, candidates should pass rigorous assessments, which will test both their willpower and astrological abilities. Going down the generations, the elders finally select Esmeralda, a young girl living in the Western Desert, to be a new successor in the Land of Dawn.
After becoming the successor of the astrologers, Esmeralda guards the Starmoon Casket that has been passed down for generations. With the hope of opening it and gaining the mysterious power from the ancient times, Esmeralda leaves off to the Minos Labyrinth to find secrets of the Starmoon Casket. But unfortunately, on her way to the Minos Labyrinth, the ground suddenly shakes and the desert falls into pieces, followed by a black sandstorm. All of a sudden, the Starmoon Casket opens and a stream of mysterious power fills in Esmeralda. Under the protection of the mysterious power, Esmeralda gets no harm and feels old memories flashing back through her mind. She feels the Starmoon Casket is calling for her, reminding her that Khufra, the ruthless tyrant of the Western Desert long ago, has recovered himself. Following the lead of the Starmoon Casket, Esmeralda changes direction to the deep desert, where there stands an ancient city. After the Starmoon Casket opens, two streams of power coming from it begin centering around Esmeralda - Frostmoon, enriched with magic, and Stardust, filled with great power. Impressed by the might of the Starmoon Casket, which was only spoken of in tales before, Esmeralda recalls the memories from the first generation of astrologers. When Esmeralda approaches the ancient city, she vaguely feels an unknown love story between Khufra and some astrologers. Seeing the end of their love, Esmeralda somehow feels sad and sorry. But it's her mission to seal Khufra and return the peace to the Western Desert.
