Cara Dapat Skin Chou Starforger MLBB Free Malaysia (18 Sept 2026)
Published: 2026-09-10
MLBB Chou "Starforger's Glory" opens on 18 September 2026 (Malaysia Time, GMT+8) and closes 25 October 2026 MYT, a 37-day sprint through the 10th Anniversary Skin Jigsaw Puzzle – Chou event, and the prize is a Special-tier skin worth roughly 599 Diamonds if it ever hit the shop. Zero Diamonds are required. Miss a single daily reset, though, and you drop pieces you cannot buy back. This guide from REDX Game walks the MYT clock, the mission map, and the ringgit math a KL or Johor Bahru player needs to plan the grind around MPL Malaysia Season 18 nights.
Step-by-step: claim Chou Starforger's Glory in five moves
Any Malaysian account logged into MLBB after the 18 September 05:00 MYT server reset can enter the puzzle. The flow is short:
- Open MLBB after the Season 42 patch installs at ~05:00 MYT on 16 Sept, then wait two days for the Jigsaw event tab to appear at the 10th Anniversary hub.
- Log in daily from 18 Sept onward. Each daily login drops one puzzle piece automatically for signing in.
- Play Classic, Ranked, or Arcade matches; each finished match ticks a mission counter. Wins are not required, but a completed match is.
- Combo missions ask for hero-set play in a single day (a Fighter, a Marksman, a Support). Group your queue by role to knock these out fast.
- Every completed mission lights up a new tile. Assemble every tile before 25 October 23:59 MYT and Chou "Starforger's Glory" lands permanently in your account.
Missing three or more days in a row is the failure state most players run into. Set a Grab-length nightly reminder, and prefer the Malaysia-side REDX Game Diamond rail for any parallel top-ups, so the currency lands on the same server that carries your free-skin grid.

Full MYT calendar: 18 Sept to 25 October 2026
Anchor your week to the five MYT gate dates below. All timings assume server reset at 05:00 MYT (GMT+8), the standard Southeast Asia patch window MOONTON uses for MLBB.
- 16 Sept 05:00 MYT: Season 42 "Starward Decade" patch installs, bringing the Sanctum Island facelift and eight hero revamps with it.
- 18 Sept 05:00 MYT: Skin Jigsaw Puzzle – Chou goes live and the puzzle grid opens inside the 10th Anniversary hub.
- 21 Sept 00:00 MYT: MPL Malaysia Season 18 pauses for the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games break (through 4 October).
- 9 Oct 05:00 MYT: Layla free anniversary skin drops as the parallel free-skin path.
- 25 Oct 23:59 MYT: Jigsaw grid closes, and any unclaimed tile locks Chou behind the paywall permanently.
The MPL pause matters. Two weeks of scrim-free evenings sit inside your puzzle window, and casual queues in KL and Petaling Jaya empty out earlier during those nights, so quick queues become a real advantage for anyone rushing puzzle tiles. As Joytify's Malaysia-market breakdown puts it, "no Diamonds required" if you finish the grid on time.
First puzzle? Two rules that save you a week
Skip the anxious grinding until you know how the grid actually reads. Only two mechanics do most of the heavy lifting:
- Daily missions refresh at 05:00 MYT. A late-night mamak sitting at Restoran Sri Nirwana in Bangsar right before midnight lets you finish today's grind, then start tomorrow's counter after ordering, essentially doubling your mission window on one visit.
- Weekly bonus tiles reset Monday 05:00 MYT. A Sunday cleanup queue is worth two casual matches, since you clear both weeks' bonus tiles in one night.
New players often burn the daily login early in the day and then forget to queue matches. Boleh tahan, that's how three tiles end up orphaned by 20 October. A pinned Telegram reminder set for 06:00 MYT and 22:00 MYT covers both peaks, and setting one takes about 20 seconds if you already have the app open on your phone.
Ringgit math: free path vs the Collector draw
Free is only worth chasing if you know what you would otherwise pay. A Special-tier skin like Starforger's Glory usually sells at 599 Diamonds, which works out to about RM 42.30 at the REDX Game 706-Diamond pack rate, versus roughly RM 50 through the Apple App Store on the same pack size. The RM 7.70 gap sounds small, but stack it across an anniversary window and the delta compounds fast.
If instead you gambled a full 10-draw Collector Chou spin, you would be looking at 2,250 Diamonds minimum for a guaranteed pull, around RM 158.90 at REDX Game rates on the 2,310-Diamond pack, or roughly RM 189 on App Store. That RM 30 gap is why volume MPL fans avoid the App Store rail entirely. The REDX Game top-up flow for MLBB Malaysia settles by DuitNow or FPX in one to three minutes, which matters if you are timing pack purchases against a limited-window shop refresh at KL prime time.
Skipping the grind and swiping instead costs KL players roughly RM 160 more than the free path. That is two mamak dinners in Cheras plus a Grab home, or a full month of monthly-card style stipends on a Genshin main.
Three ways players lose the free skin
The Jigsaw Puzzle is generous, but it does not forgive. Watch these traps:
- Region-mismatched accounts. A Global-server MLBB account created via App Store US may not see the SEA anniversary hub. Malaysian phone-linked accounts on Original Server (Server 2 or Server 6) get the event by default. If you top up through a non-MY reseller, you might not qualify.
- Missed daily resets. Skip five straight days and the tile debt piles beyond weekly-bonus recovery. Ipoh players heading balik kampung should still log in at 05:00 MYT, since even a two-minute Custom Match ticks the daily-play counter.
- Anniversary hub confusion. Three parallel free-skin paths run at once (Nana, Chou, Layla). Confuse Chou-specific missions for the Nana tile grid and you will grind the wrong counter. Every mission card shows a hero portrait in the top-right corner, so check it before you queue.
MOONTON has not offered puzzle-piece purchases in past MLBB anniversary events, so any "shortcut" tab that appears late in the window is almost always a scam ad screenshot floating around Facebook groups. Ignore anyone hawking "Chou piece top-up" for RM 15 in a Shah Alam gaming chat, because that path does not exist inside the client and never has for any prior MLBB anniversary event window.
Chou Starforger's Glory FAQ
Bila skin Chou Starforger's Glory keluar di Malaysia?
18 September 2026, around 05:00 pagi Malaysia Time (GMT+8), when the anniversary Jigsaw Puzzle tab opens inside the MLBB 10th Anniversary hub. The event closes at 23:59 MYT on 25 October 2026.
Berapa Diamond diperlukan untuk siapkan puzzle?
Zero. The puzzle is mission-based. Every tile is earned through daily logins, completed matches, and combo hero-role missions. Diamond spends do not shortcut the grid.
Which server gets the event, Original or Advanced?
Original Server (Server 2 and Server 6, the Malaysian pool). Advanced Server accounts see event previews only. Phone-linked MY accounts qualify automatically once patched.
Can I stack the Chou path with Nana and Layla free skins?
Yes, all three anniversary skin paths run in parallel. Nana went live 4 Sept 2026 MYT, Chou opens 18 Sept, and Layla lands 9 Oct. Each grid is independent, so you can grind all three inside the same anniversary window without conflict.
What if I miss a whole week of daily logins?
Weekly bonus tiles refill part of the gap, but seven skipped daily-login pieces are hard to make back before the 25 Oct close. Two make-up match sessions on the following Sunday, timed around the 05:00 MYT reset, are the recovery move. Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, according to Wikipedia's platform overview, entered its tenth anniversary run this September, and MOONTON has framed the Chou path as the "tightest" of the three free-skin windows.
KL, JB, Penang: grind schedule that fits Malaysian nights
Peak MLBB queue times in Malaysia sit between 21:00 and 24:00 MYT, right when Selangor Red Giants scrim windows fill matchmaking with strong players. Two rules keep the grind clean:
- Queue Ranked missions between 17:00 and 19:00 MYT for shorter waits, since office workers in KLCC and Bukit Bintang are still commuting home from the office and matchmaking depth is thinner while queue times drop under a minute.
- Save Arcade-mode missions for post-midnight. Brawl and Death Battle finish in six to eight minutes flat, and Team SMG streamers often host lobby-fill events on Twitch that count toward your match counter.
Penang players on the JB-to-KL express bus can grind on 4G, since Custom-mode matches tick the play mission without needing stable Wi-Fi. Yamato of TODAK's fans in Petaling Jaya lean on the same speed when MPL prime-time hits and Diamond restocks matter. Memang best for late-night top-ups during the Anniversary Gala Weekend. REDX Game keeps its Malaysia Diamond ladder flat around the 25 October closing rush from Cheras to Kuching.
