MPL Team Recall Effects: The Hits and the Misses
When it comes to team recall effects in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, not all are created equal. We’ll be diving into the limited-edition MPL Philippines recalls, rating them based on three key factors: Overall Appeal, Spam Ability, and Power—the impressiveness and intimidation factor that makes a recall stand out.
The TP is a Psychological Weapon Too!
Before anything else, we need to emphasize the two-fold purpose of the Recall or TP: for returning to base, and for riling up opponents!
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, players often use the recall or teleport (TP) effect as more than just a functional tool to return to base—it’s a psychological weapon. By spamming the recall repeatedly, players aim to tilt or annoy their opponents, distracting them and getting under their skin. This tactic is especially popular in intense matches, where the flashy, repetitive effects can break concentration, cause frustration, and even provoke mistakes. It’s all about adding a little extra mind game to the gameplay, giving spammers an edge by getting into their enemies’ heads.
Let’s see who nailed it and who missed the mark.
AP BREN

As the reigning world champions, you’d expect AP BREN’s recall to pack a punch. While it’s not bad, it lacks that “wow” factor we were hoping for. There’s potential, but it’s missing that extra flair. The tp spam is underwhelming because it doesn’t quite irritate or overwhelm like a good spam should. A bit more noise would have been nice!
- Power: 4
- Appeal: 8
- Spam Ability: 4
- Overall Grade: 5.3
Aurora

Aurora’s recall effect feels, well… too polite! It’s clean and formal. Let’s be real, a team recall shouldn’t feel this basic. Its speed tp spam is also a missed opportunity to make something entertaining and disruptive.
- Power: 2
- Appeal: 5
- Spam Ability: 2
- Overall Grade: 3
TNC

TNC might not be leading the scoreboard in wins, but their recall certainly stands out. It’s playful and loud, giving fans something fun to use and, more importantly, something to annoy their opponents with. This is where TNC shines. It’s noisy, cute, and perfect for annoying your enemies.
- Power: 8
- Appeal: 8
- Spam Ability: 9
- Overall Grade: 8.3
RSG

RSG’s recall has a strong, menacing look. It’s eye-catching but slightly lacking in terms of spam ability. While it’s not bad when spammed at specific intervals, it feels incomplete when spammed quickly.
- Power: 7
- Appeal: 8
- Spam Ability: 6
- Overall Grade: 7
Fnatic ONIC Philippines

ONIC nailed it with their recall, going full Super Saiyan. It’s bold, intense, and has that perfect oomph factor. This recall isn’t just impressive; it’s legendary. It’s high-energy, entertaining, and perfect for tilting opponents.
- Power: 10
- Appeal: 10
- Spam Ability: 10
- Overall Grade: 10
Smart Omega

Smart Omega’s recall is definitely the most on-brand among all recalls out there but it could use that Bagong Barangay energy to spice things up! Not bad, but could use a little something extra, especially with its spamming ability.
- Power: 5
- Appeal: 7
- Spam Ability: 3
- Overall Grade: 5
Team Liquid Philippines

Team Liquid went all-in on humor and creativity with their recall. They drew inspiration from Filipino mythology, incorporating the Tikbalang, a horse-headed creature. Originally, it was supposed to be an orca, but the twist to Tikbalang made it one of the quirkiest and most fun recalls out there. Its spamming is unmatched. It’s goofy, hilarious, and pure fun to spam.
- Power: 10
- Appeal: 10
- Spam Ability: 10
- Overall Grade: 10
