When Does MLBB Chou "Starforger's Glory" Drop in Malaysia? Sept 18 Time Guide
Published: 2026-09-09
Chou's free anniversary skin, Starforger's Glory, drops from a Jigsaw Puzzle event that runs September 18 – October 25, 2026. Malaysian players get a 37-day window to collect all puzzle pieces, and the daily reset lands at 13:00 MYT like every other MLBB event. All times below are Malaysia time (GMT+8), and REDX Game built this planner around the Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya schedule so you never miss a daily reset while chasing a Ranked climb.
Chou "Starforger's Glory" event calendar: Sept 18 – Oct 25 (MYT)
The Jigsaw Puzzle event is the free-skin path for the 10th Anniversary Phase 1. According to esports.gg, the puzzle window opens Sept 18 and closes Oct 25, 2026. Moonton describes the wider campaign as "ALL IN MLBB", a global anniversary programme that also includes the Nana "Stardust Dreamer" Battle Pass skin (Sept 4 – Nov 1) and the Season 42 ranked reset.
Season 42 itself starts September 16 at 16:00 MYT (08:00 UTC), so anyone who wants a smooth week-one grind should finish placement matches before the Chou event drops on Sept 18. If your diamond wallet is thin heading into ranked, refuel from the REDX Game MLBB counter before Tuesday reset. The seasonal skin, Zhask "Icespawn Scourge", takes 20 Ranked matches to claim — those matches also feed puzzle tasks once the Jigsaw window opens.
- Sept 16, 16:00 MYT: Season 42 rank reset
- Sept 18, 13:00 MYT: Jigsaw Puzzle event live; Chou skin claimable
- Oct 25, 12:59 MYT: final daily reset; last chance to place a piece
How the Jigsaw Puzzle actually works
Picture a picture frame with empty tiles, where each event task you clear lights up one more corner, and completing the full picture drops Starforger's Glory into your inventory as a permanent skin the moment the last piece slots in. Three task buckets feed the pieces: daily login streaks, match participation (Classic, Ranked, or Arcade), and special anniversary missions tied to the ALL IN MLBB arc. Miss a day and the piece is gone — you can catch up through matches, but the login track does not backfill.
Bahasa players in Johor Bahru sometimes call this format "senang gila kalau tak lupa log masuk" — easy if you never forget to log in. That is the honest read: consistency beats grinding.
Daily task cadence: hit 100% of pieces before Oct 25
Here is the math REDX Game runs for players in Malaysia. The event window is 37 days (18 September through 25 October, inclusive). Recent MLBB puzzle-format events have typically required around 30 tiles to complete — Moonton has not published the exact count for Starforger's Glory yet, but the 37-day buffer means one piece per day still finishes early with a week to spare.
- Log in every day. One tap after the 13:00 MYT reset. A calendar reminder solves the whole problem.
- Play three matches on weekends. Classic queues in Kuala Lumpur average two to three minutes at 20:00 MYT; you can bank six matches in an hour.
- Clear the special mission the day it drops. Anniversary missions in past events have expired in 72 hours. Do not stack them.
A KL office worker who logs in on all 37 days and plays five Ranked games each weekend clears roughly 45 task credits. That is comfortable overhead for a 30-tile picture. Miss two weekdays a month and the weekend Ranked plan still covers the gap. Skip both, and you are burning time you cannot recover.
Chou "Starforger's Glory" FAQ
Is the Chou skin actually free?
Yes, completely. The Jigsaw Puzzle event costs zero diamonds because puzzle pieces come from daily logins, matches, and anniversary missions rather than any recharge quota. Bonus paths that need Diamond top-ups do exist elsewhere in the anniversary programme, but the Chou skin itself sits firmly on the free-track reward line.
What time does the event reset every day?
The daily reset falls at 13:00 MYT because Moonton's server rollover is 05:00 UTC and Malaysia sits eight hours ahead of that clock. Logging in at 12:55 MYT will still register against today's tile and will not count toward tomorrow, so set the alarm for 13:00 sharp.
Does buying MLBB diamonds help me finish faster?
No, not for this puzzle. Diamond top-ups cover other 10th Anniversary rewards including the Nana Battle Pass, the recharge event skins, and the Aspirants rerun, though the Chou puzzle itself stays task-only.
Can I still get the skin if I start on Oct 1?
Tight but possible. Starting on October 1 leaves 25 days on the clock, which means daily login plus two Ranked or Classic sessions each week normally still gathers enough tiles before the 25 October cut-off.
Is there a Malaysian server for MLBB or is this global?
The MLBB SEA server covers Malaysia; all timings and events land at the same MYT slot as Indonesia and the Philippines. Malaysia players do not need to switch region.
What Malaysian players pay for diamonds in the anniversary window
Even though Chou's skin is free, the puzzle pushes many players toward diamond top-ups for the Battle Pass or the Aspirants Recall bundle. This is where the MYR gap matters. A RM 50 top-up at REDX Game delivers roughly 430 Diamonds, while the same RM 65 spend on the App Store's local pack yields around 425. The absolute ringgit gap is small on the small packs, but stack a Battle Pass, a Weekly Diamond Pass and one Starlight, and the App Store adds RM 30+ per month in Apple's cut. REDX Game routes to Moonton's Malaysian storefront, so the diamonds land on the same account without a region switch. Anyone who ever wrestled with a global-server top-up receipt or lost bonus days after switching regions will notice the difference on the first order.
Anniversary orders on the same counter still clear inside the advertised one to three minute delivery envelope. Boleh tahan for a Season 42 opening week when queues spike. If you want the diamonds now, order MLBB diamonds through the REDX Game storefront and skip the App Store markup.
Local tips: KL ping, PJ Wi-Fi, and Selangor Red Giants queue habits
MLBB's SEA server routes through Singapore for most Malaysian ISPs. Unifi and Maxis Fibre in Petaling Jaya typically show 25–40 ms; TIME Fibre in Kuala Lumpur sits around 20 ms. Mobile data on 4G in Shah Alam and Ipoh can spike above 90 ms during 21:00–23:00 MYT, so plan your Ranked matches earlier if you are on Celcom or U Mobile at peak. Selangor Red Giants scrim windows sit around 15:00–18:00 MYT, so public Ranked queues are usually softer then. Team SMG streams in the evening slot; if you queue against smurfs, that is why.
One more note for players juggling schoolwork: the puzzle only needs one tap after 13:00 MYT. Set an alarm during recess. Memang best when a free skin does not eat your homework block.
REDX Game keeps its MLBB top-up storefront live 24/7 through the anniversary. Malaysian players who camp the 13:00 MYT reset can pair a small diamond refill with their weekend Ranked session without breaking rhythm. For a fast reload before the Season 42 push, top up MLBB diamonds at REDX Game — DuitNow, Boost and TNG all clear in under three minutes on the standard pack sizes.
