Slow

Slow (verb slowed), slowdown or slow effect is a state where it reduces the target's Movement Speed by percentage within a time duration.

Despite being a debuff by definition (a special state that can decrease heroes' power), slow is a type crowd control effect, as the effect can be reduced by resilience or ignored by control and slowing immunity.

It is the most common CC effect, with 90 out of first 100 heroes released on the original server have at least a slow effect on their abilities.

Mechanics[]

Main article: Movement Speed

“	…But when Movement Speed is below 230 or over 420 both Slowdown and Speedup Effect will decay. ${\rm {Calculated\ Movement\ Speed}}=Basic\ Movement\ Speed\times (100\%+All\ Speedup\ Effect\%-All\ Slowdown\ Effect\%)$	”
	—Definition of Movement Speed, MLBB Skill Notes

If a target's movement speed has been greatly reduced to at least 230, the slow effect starts to decay at an unknown rate.

A unit can apply slow effects to a target up 90% of their movement speed and not to exceed this percentage.
