Hanzo revamp in Mobile Legends Bang Bang: Passive skill (Ame no Habakiri)
The damage dealt by Hanzo's Basic Attacks and other skills inflicts stacks of the Dark Ninjutsu on his enemies (capped at five). Players can only cast Hanzo's first skill (Ninjutsu: Demon Feast) when the targets are inflicted with all five stacks of the Dark Ninjutsu. This is expected to make the strongest ninja unplayable in his human form as well.
Hanzo revamp in Mobile Legends Bang Bang: First skill (Demon Feast)
Hanzo can only cast the skill on targets with the maximum stacks of the Dark Ninjutsu. He will devour common creeps and digest them over a period of time to recover 20% HP.
While targeting enemy heroes, he will deal 540 (+120% Extra Physical Attack) Physical Damage. However, when targeting Lord and Turtle, he will deal 500 True Damage.

Hanzo revamp in Mobile Legends Bang Bang: Second skill (Dark Mist)
The revamped Hanzo in MLBB will depend quite a lot on his second skill. Hanzo will dash towards the target direction, leaving a Dark Mist that will deal Physical Damage to the enemies in that area every 0.5 seconds, up to 5 times, and will also slow down the enemy in that area by 40% while granting 20% extra movement speed to himself.
This skill of revamped Hanzo in MLBB should help the assassin retreat from certain teamfights even with low health.

We tried playing with the revamped Hanzo in MLBB in the Advance Server's practice ground, and it seems like you can eliminate a Layla by casting the second skill only four times. Now this might not happen in a competitive match in the Land of Dawn, as your enemies will have backups there, but this proves that his second skill is going to be among of the most powerful ones for Hanzo.
Hanzo revamp in Mobile Legends Bang Bang: Ultimate skill (Pinnacle Ninja
The revamped Hanzo in MLBB does not meditate anymore after casting his ultimate, sending his soul to fight against the enemies. Instead, it seems like he opens a portal to charge into the battle as Hanekage. In this form, he consumes 12.5 Energy per second.
He recovers 2 Energy when a non-hero unit dies nearby and 20 Energy when it is a hero unit. Once he has consumed all his energy, his body will be dragged to the Hanekage's current position.

While in the Hanekage form, Hanzo's body remains invisible so enemy heroes cannot kill his body to eliminate him. Hanekage will be able to avoid obstacles and get 35% Movement and 30% Attack Speed. Hanekage returns to Hanzo's position immediately after getting killed.
Hanzo will be able to recover 16% of his health and cannot be targeted during this time. This effect gets triggered when the skill is cast again. After Hanekage's death, Hanzo will have a 50% reduced Movement Speed and he will become visible for six seconds.
