For example, a common scene in MLBB's ad videos is that a team of five players engages in intense confrontation on the battlefield, showing the game's team cooperation and strategy, while also attracting users' participation and competition. Moreover, MLBB's ad videos also combine local culture and habits, such as using local languages, music, celebrities, etc., to increase user identification and intimacy.
