The Strongest Johnson Build 2023 For Tank-Mage Users

Johnson Tanks 2023

We must be able to arrange Johnson's strongest 2023 build item when using it to fight other heroes in the Land of Dawn.

The heroes in the Mobile Legends game are still often found and used by Mobile Legends players.

Johnson himself doesn't have overly complicated mechanics. As a tank, he can follow various types of gameplay and strategies used by the team.

Just collaborating with 1-2 team members (usually a mage or fighter initiator), Johnson's combo can be used to win stars.

Even though it sounds simple, it still takes its own "art" to use this hero.

That's why articles like this are important to publish. The hope is that Vicigers can get more detailed information about the gameplay and meta that applies.

Explanation of Johnson Tank-Mage

As a tank hero with the role of Roamer who has a tendency to output magical burst damage, the mage's secondary characteristics are indeed suitable when pinned on him.

With his skill mechanics, the most suitable strategy for this tank is of course the 'hit' meta.

This designation is based on gameplay Johnson who immediately pushed into the opposing team's setup. This requires high accuracy and good timing.

If not, it is very likely that the existing efforts will end up backlashing and harming the team itself. It's only natural that metas like Johnson and tanks with such characteristics are more commonly played at lower tiers (Epic below). Yep, this tier is usually still a low mechanic.

Skills Johnson

  1. (Passive) Electro-airbag Shield: gives shield (white blood) when its HP drops below 30%.
  2. (Skill 1) Deadly Pincers: throws Spanner (club) in the specified direction and deals magic damage and stun effects to opponents in the targeted area of effect (AoE).
  3. (Skill 2) Electromag Rays: Johnson raises his shield and deals forward magic damage in a fan-shaped AoE. It also causes a slow effect on the enemy it hits.
  4. (Ultimate) Rapid Touchdown: allows him to jump, transform into a car, and accelerate over time. Only 1 teammate can get into the car before the gas (throttle) is stepped on (can be done automatically or by pressing the ulti button again.

In the current meta, the ulti mode (in the form of a car) will change Johnson's 2nd skill. He can go faster as needed by pressing the acceleration button to increase the hero's banging power and timing.

Now, let's get into the build discussion. Coinciding with this article being made, which just entered Season 28 and patch note 1.7.68 original server, Johnson can be played in several metas.

This relates to several things:

  1. The emergence of the 'jungle tank' trend which is often used in the upper-middle tier.
  2. Revamp from Johnson which strengthens his magical damage attribute.
  3. Removed twin item effect.

Seeing the three points above, we will at least suggest the three strongest Johnson builds:

Full Tanks

First is the Full Tank. Here's the build Johnson Full Tank:

  • Tough/Warrior Boots (Roam – Dire Hit),
  • BladeMail
  • Athena Shield
  • Guardian Helmet,
  • immortality, Dominance Ice/Cursed Helmet.

Johnson needs the items above depending on the dominance of the type of damage output owned by the opposing team.

If the opposing team tends to have physical damage types, Warrior Boots + Dominance Ice can be selected. Meanwhile, if you lean towards magical, Tough Boots + Cursed Helmet can be a good choice.

Full Burst Damage

You can also arrange the Johnson Full Burst Damage build. Here's the order:

  • Magic Shoes (Roam – Dire Hit)
  • Fleeting Time
  • Genius Wand
  • Holy Crystals
  • Ice Queen Wand
  • Blood Wings.

With this build, the combos you do with your friends are guaranteed to be very effective in hitting the enemy's base. The resulting burst damage will be massive. Even so, this will sacrifice the tank characteristics of the roamer himself.

Build Johnson Tank Mage

  • Tough/Warrior Boots (Roam – Dire Hit)
  • BladeMail
  • Athena Shield
  • Fleeting Time
  • Ice Queen Wand
  • Blood Wings.

This build will strengthen the mage characteristics of the hero without having to add to his tank role. By combining these three magic and defense items, apart from adding magical damage output, it also strengthens the hero's blood attribute (HP).

Johnson emblem

For the emblem itself, Johnson remains loyal to the tank emblem with the Concussive Blast talent. The small “explosion” of talent is suitable for picking off opponents who managed to escape Johnson's deadly 'bump'.
