The roles of Tvoz squad members are as follows:
Aries Maulana as a coach (responsible for analyzing
the game and team drafts), Deny Afriansyah as the
leader (responsible for giving commands to the
members), Bono as the Exp Laner (serving as the
Front Liner), Bintang as the Jungler (responsible for
objectives and assisting other lanes), Yahya
Tank/Support (responsible for opening the map and
being the team's front liner), and Arip Supriyadi as the
Gold Laner (responsible for dealing damage from the
backline of the team). After the hero selection is
completed, players enter the laning phase, where they
are in the chosen lanes. Players try to gain experience
and gold by killing minions, jungle monsters, or even
enemy players. Team fights and tactics become the
main focus as the game progresses. Effective
communication among team members is the key to
success in executing planned tactics. Players must
cooperate to perform coordinated attacks (ganks),
maintain map control, and organize efficient team
play. Teams have several main objectives, including
destroying enemy turrets, killing opponents,
controlling specific areas, and taking Lord or Turtle,
which provide strategic advantages. Hero leveling up
becomes crucial, with players gaining experience
from killing enemies and monsters. Items purchased
also play a role in developing the hero's strength.
Intense team fights are the highlight of Mobile
Legends games.
Teamwork, good strategy, and adaptation to
match situations are key factors in winning battles.
The ultimate goal in this game is to destroy the
enemy's Nexus. The team that successfully destroys
the Nexus becomes the winner. Playing Mobile
Legends: Bang-Bang offers competition and
excitement, especially in the context of the "Orang
Muda Ganjar" tournament.
The game continues to be updated to maintain its
appeal and player enthusiasm. After completing the
pre-fieldwork stages, especially those related to
informant licensing and the determination of all
activity requirements for observations and interviews,
the researcher then, at that time, continued to
complete the stages, especially collecting information
or data from the field through conducting further
interviews with informants. The next process is direct
observation in the Basecamp area owned by Squad
Tvoz to directly review the communication
interactions of Squad Tvoz while playing Mobile
Legends. The source of information for the inspection
report was obtained from Squad Tvoz in Mobile
Legends Game through meetings, either in person or
via the WhatsApp application, and screenshots of the
Game profiles of each main player sent to the
researcher.
The information received by the researcher is in
line with the research focus. This research is about the
communication patterns of Tvoz team in Mobile
Legends Game. The following is a description of the
information obtained from the results of information
collected through observations, interviews, and
documents. Based on the results of the data collected
and processed by the author through various stages,
namely data collection, data condensation, data
presentation, as well as data drawing and verification,
the author found communication patterns used by
Squad Tvoz in the "Orang Muda Ganjar" tournament,
namely spiral communication patterns, linear
communication patterns, and also circular
communication patterns that occur in several phases,
namely the backstage phase and the in-game phase.
4.1 Spiral Communication Pattern
Information about the spiral communication model
can be obtained from the books used by the researcher
as reference sources, as well as from several
magazines read by the researcher. The researcher
obtained definitions from these sources, namely that
the spiral communication model is a communication
process that starts from a message or information
medium and transfers it to another communication
medium, eventually becoming a large conversation,
which ultimately becomes a small communication
process. In this research, the form of communication
pattern recognized by the researcher from the
communication process carried out by the research
subjects, the Tvoz group in Mobile Legends Game, is
the spiral communication pattern.
How does the author find information about the
Tvoz group when communicating through the spiral
communication model? This is very easy. This is
what researchers do when their team (members of
Squad Tvoz) communicates behind the scenes while
developing strategies to reach phases in the game.
Each member of Squad Tvoz has the right or opinion
among one another. So, all these members are equal
when giving opinions or suggestions in the allocation
of locations, heroes to be taken, and also heroes to be
banned so that they can be effectively used to counter
the enemy heroes and also facilitate victory.
The different opinions of each member ultimately
lead to a strategy, both in the strategy during draft
pick and also during the movements (rotations) of
each member. The results of the implementation of
this strategy, whether it will run well according to the
initial strategy plan that can win the game or,
conversely, the implementation of the strategy is less
