Magic Chess: Go Go Beginner's Guide to Master the Core Game Mechanics

Dive into the exciting world of Magic Chess: Go Go, Moonton's auto-battler strategy game set within the vibrant universe of Mobile Legends. Blending the strategic depth of chess with the tactical nuances of hero-based combat, this game challenges you to build powerful teams using a diverse roster of Mobile Legends heroes. While a relatively new addition to the gaming landscape, its auto-chess gameplay builds upon a well-established formula, enhanced with unique features that set it apart. This beginner's guide will illuminate the core mechanics and highlight the game's distinguishing elements. Let's get started!

Understanding the Gameplay Mechanics of Magic Chess: Go Go

For the uninitiated, Magic Chess: Go Go is a standalone spin-off from the popular MOBA, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. Moonton has taken the beloved "Magic Chess" game mode from MLBB and transformed it into a fully-fledged game, adding fresh content and features. The gameplay retains the core auto-chess structure: you begin with a small team and strategically expand your roster through various rounds. Victories in these battles directly deplete your opponents' health points, making consistent wins crucial for survival and ranking higher.

Each hero is assigned a specific position on the board, reflecting their role in combat. For instance, Chang'e, a ranged hero, excels in the backline. The game features diverse rounds, including hero rounds and creep rounds. Before jumping in, complete the tutorial—it provides a clear visual explanation of the mechanics.

Your objective is to outmaneuver seven other players in this chess-like battle. While the core mechanics are familiar to Magic Chess players, Go Go boasts an expanded roster of MLBB characters and equipment. A notable difference lies in the creep rounds, which now include "Go Go Cards" alongside the standard equipment and crystals. Long-time MLBB players will find much to love, as it's essentially the Magic Chess mode they know and love, but supercharged with new heroes and items.

What are Hero Synergies?

Every hero in Magic Chess: Go Go belongs to a faction, influencing the game's synergy system. Hero synergies grant powerful buffs to heroes of the same faction. These are particularly advantageous in ranked games and higher-level play, where experienced players leverage faction synergies to boost stats and unlock additional utility. These buffs enhance overall attributes like attack, defense, and maximum HP.

Go Go Pass

Similar to MLBB's Starlight battle pass, Magic Chess: Go Go offers a "Go Go Pass" with free and premium versions. Premium rewards are naturally exclusive to premium pass holders. The pass is tiered, with progression achieved by earning Pass experience. Gain Pass XP by completing daily, weekly, and special tasks, or by spending diamonds to accelerate your progress.
