MLBB x Street Fighter 6 Event Guide: Skins, Rewards, Draw System, and End Date (2026)
Everything You Need to Know About MLBB x Street Fighter 6: Paquito (Ryu), Chou (Ken), Guinevere (Chun-Li), Dyrroth (Guile) skins, the outfit system, emblem exchange cost (1,200 each), Premium Supply phases, a daily draw strategy for under 1,500 Diamonds, the free Joy skin, and the event end date.
1. Event Overview: Dates and Included Content
This MLBB x Street Fighter 6 collaboration is one of the largest crossover events in Mobile Legends history and officially launched on July 3, 2026. According to the official MLBB announcement and detailed coverage from TwogPedia, this event brings four iconic Street Fighter 6 characters to the Land of Dawn as high-quality collaboration skins, while also introducing the brand-new Outfit system, free rewards, and multiple side events.
End date note: Different sources report different end dates, ranging from late July 2026 to mid-August. Based on TwogPedia's coverage , the safest estimate is August 16, 2026. Do not wait until the last day; complete your Premium Supply phase tasks as early as possible.
2. All 4 Collaboration Skins: Heroes and Street Fighter Characters
This collaboration includes four MLBB heroes, each reimagined as a legendary Street Fighter 6 character and featuring complete SF6-style skill effects, voice lines, animations, recall effects, and avatars. These pairings were specifically chosen based on each hero's gameplay and the fighter's combat style:
Best skin choice for your main hero: Choose the skin that matches the hero you play most, not the coolest character. If you main Chou, Ken is the obvious first choice. If Paquito is your jungle core, Ryu will deliver the most practical in-game value. Guinevere (Chun-Li) is the community favorite based on early reactions, but choose based on your hero pool, not on hype.
3. New Outfit System: 8 Looks Derived from 4 Skins
MLBB is introducing a brand-new Outfit (alternate costume) system , launching alongside this collaboration. This is also the first collaboration event to include two distinct visual designs for each skin, rather than just recolors. According to LapakGaming's cost breakdown:
Outfit 2 (Main Skin): The primary Street Fighter 6 collaboration appearance, meaning the classic looks (Ryu's white gi, Chun-Li's blue qipao, Ken's red gi, and Guile's olive military outfit). Cost: 1,200 Crests.
Outfit 1 (Paint / Alternate Version): The character's modern Street Fighter 6 redesigned look , a completely different outfit design in the SF6 art style. Cost: 200 Crests.
Full Set (Main Skin + Alternate Outfit): 1,400 Crests total per hero.
This means you can obtain up to 8 different character appearances across these 4 heroes. The Outfit system greatly increases collection depth, but the total cost will also be higher if you want the full set for your favorite hero.
4. Draw System and Crest Exchange Explained
This SF6 collaboration uses a Crest (event token) exchange system instead of a Bingo grid or randomly dropped skins. Here's how it works:
Draw Cost
Crest Exchange Shop
How to Get Crests
Each draw gives a random reward, which may be a skin, effect, emote, border, or duplicate item.
Duplicate items are automatically converted into Crests. No draw is ever wasted.
Each 10x draw usually gives 120–150 Crests (including duplicate conversions).
Lucky players can reach 80–90 drawsto reach 1,200 Crests; average players usually need 100–110 draws.
There is no RNG in the final reward: Unlike past collaboration events where you had to rely entirely on luck to pull a skin, the Crest exchange system means as long as you accumulate enough Crests, you are guaranteed to get the skin you want . Every draw moves your progress forward, with nothing wasted.
5. Full Diamond Cost Breakdown
According to LapakGaming's cost calculator:
Realistic budget goal: If you are not spending heavily, trying to collect all 4 main skins plus all 4 alternate Outfits is not realistic. Set a realistic goal, such as 1 main skin (1,200 Crests) or 1 full set (1,400 Crests) , and plan your Diamond spending around that single goal. Spreading your Crests across multiple heroes will only leave you with nothing in the end.
6. Premium Supply Strategy: How to Get a Skin for Under 1,500 Diamonds
This Premium Supply event is the key to reducing the skin cost from 4,000+ Diamonds to under 1,500. The event has two phases (July 10 and July 17), and each phase has two milestone tasks:
Recharge 250 Diamonds Milestone
Spend 250 Diamonds Milestone
Completing both milestones in one phase gives about 29–30 free draw tokens. Across both phases, you can get ~58–60 free draws , which is nearly half of the 100+ draws you need.
Optimal day-by-day strategy
July 3–9: Daily discounted single draw
Spend 25 Diamonds each day on one 50% off single draw. Do not do any 10x draws yet.
Cost: ~175 Diamonds | Gained: ~7 draws | Running total: ~7 draws
July 10: Premium Supply Phase 1
Recharge 250 Diamonds (or activate 3 Weekly Diamond Passes). Spend 450 Diamonds on one 10x draw. Claim ~29 free draw tokens.
Cost: ~450 Diamonds | Gained: ~39 draws | Running total: ~46 draws
July 11–16: Daily discounted single draw
Continue doing one 25-Diamond single draw per day for 6 days.
Cost: ~150 Diamonds | Gained: ~6 draws | Running total: ~52 draws
July 17: Premium Supply Phase 2
Recharge 250 Diamonds. Spend 450 Diamonds on one 10x draw. Claim ~29 free draw tokens.
Cost: ~450 Diamonds | Gained: ~39 draws | Running total: ~91 draws
July 18–End: Finish with daily single draws
Continue doing 25-Diamond single draws every day until you reach 1,200 Crests. Most players will get there around draw 95–105.
Cost: ~100-200 Diamonds | Gained: ~4–8 draws | Final total: ~95–105 draws
Estimated total cost: ~1,375 Diamonds can get you 100+ draws and 1,200+ Crests = 1 guaranteed main skin. If you want to add the alternate Outfit as well (reaching 1,400 Crests), add about 100 more Diamonds. Pro tip: During the Premium Supply phases, prioritize using Weekly Diamond Passes instead of directly recharging Diamonds. They also count toward the recharge milestone and provide better long-term value. Top up Diamonds at Topuplist before each Premium Supply phase begins to get the best price.

9. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: When does the MLBB x Street Fighter 6 event end?
Most sources, including TwogPedia, say the event will likely end around August 16, 2026 , about 6 weeks after launch. However, some early leaks pointed to August 3 instead. The side events (Shining Album, Daily Login, Green Dragon) end on August 3, while the main draw event may continue longer. Always follow the official end date shown by the in-game event timer.
Q: How much does one SF6 skin actually cost?
~1,000–1,500 Diamonds , assuming you use the daily discount + Premium Supply strategy. Without strategy, it requires: 4,000–5,000 Diamonds. The difference is massive; following the daily plan is the difference between being able to afford it and not being able to. A full set (main skin + alternate Outfit) costs about 1,400 Crests and can be achieved within ~1,600–2,000 Diamonds with proper planning.
Q: Which SF6 skin should I choose?
Choose based on the hero you play most, not the coolest Street Fighter character:
Paquito main → Ryu
Chou main → Ken
Guinevere main → Chun-Li (also the community's most popular choice)
Dyrroth main → Guile
If you never play that hero, buying the skin is a waste of Diamonds no matter how good it looks.
Q: Can I get an SF6 skin for free?
No. SF6 collaboration skins are paid content and must be obtained through Diamonds and the Crest exchange system. However, the Joy "Badlands Scrapper" Special skin, the Guile "Still Standing" emote, the Green Dragon Joy variant, and the daily login scratch cards (up to 5 Elite skins) are all completely free , and only require participation in the event.
Q: What is the Outfit system?
Each SF6 skin includes two visual designs: Outfit 2 (classic Street Fighter look) and Outfit 1 (modern Street Fighter 6 redesigned look). They are purchased separately , with the main skin costing 1,200 Crests and the alternate Outfit costing 200 Crests. They are not just recolors, but completely different outfit designs , both within the SF6 art style.
Q: What happens if I miss a Premium Supply phase?
Even missing just one phase will cost you ~29 free draw tokens, which is roughly equivalent to needing to pay extra for 30 draws , increasing the total cost by about 1,000+ Diamonds. Do not miss July 10 or July 17. Set calendar reminders.
Q: Should I do single draws or 10x draws?
Do the daily discounted single draw (25 Diamonds) every day. The 10x draw (450 Diamonds) should only be used during the Premium Supply phases to help complete the "Spend 250 Diamonds" milestone. Outside Premium Supply, stick to the 25-Diamond daily single draw to maximize value.
Q: Where can I buy the Diamonds needed for this SF6 event?
Diamonds can be purchased through the in-game shop, but if you want better prices and instant delivery, use Topuplist. Their MLBB top-up page offers all Diamond packages at competitive prices and supports secure checkout. Complete your purchase before July 10 and July 17 to meet both Premium Supply recharge milestones.
Q: Is the Joy "Badlands Scrapper" skin really worth getting?
It is a free Special-tier skin , roughly comparable in quality to an Elite or Special skin, and can be obtained through the Shining Album event (July 7 – August 3). It is not an SF6 collaboration skin, but a separate bonus reward. If you play Joy, it is absolutely worth collecting because it costs nothing. Playing during Crazy Mondays (July 6, 13, 20, 27) gives rare cards that speed up your progress.
