2. All 4 Skins — Hero Assignments and Design Details

This collaboration pairs four MLBB heroes with four 《Street Fighter 6》 fighters, chosen based on their natural fit in both gameplay and visuals.

Paquito = Ryu

MLBB Hero	SF6 Character	Skin Features
Paquito	Ryu	White gi, red headband, Hadouken-themed skill effects, Shoryuken-inspired rising punch animation

Ryu’s disciplined Shotokan karate style fits Paquito extremely well, whose boxing combo mechanics mirror Ryu’s methodical fighting rhythm. This skin transforms Paquito’s skill effects into iconic 《Street Fighter》 visuals, including the classic Hadouken energy wave and spinning attacks inspired by Tatsumaki Senpukyaku.

Chou = Ken

MLBB Hero	SF6 Character	Skin Features
Chou	Ken	Red gi, flowing long hair, flaming Shoryuken effects, offensive kick-focused animations

Chou’s fast-paced, kick-centric skill set is a strong match for Ken’s aggressive fighting style. The Ken skin brings Ken Masters’ signature flames into Chou’s abilities, complete with burning kick trails and a dramatic Shoryuken uppercut in the ultimate.

Guinevere = Chun-Li

MLBB Hero	SF6 Character	Skin Features
Guinevere	Chun-Li	Dark blue qipao, black tights, Lightning Kick spinning effects, Hyakuretsukyaku multi-hit animation

Guinevere’s aerial combo mechanics and kick-focused abilities make her the perfect vessel for showcasing Chun-Li’s iconic fighting style. Considered by many in the community to be Guinevere’s best skin to date, this Chun-Li skin turns her jumping skills into spinning Lightning Kicks and her ultimate into a devastating Hyakuretsukyaku combo.

Dyrroth = Guile

MLBB Hero	SF6 Character	Skin Features
Dyrroth	Guile	Military uniform, iconic flattop hairstyle, Sonic Boom projectile effects, Flash Kick rising kick animation

Guile’s military background and charge-based fighting style naturally align with Dyrroth’s aggressive warrior vibe. This skin gives Dyrroth Guile’s signature flattop silhouette and military gear, while replacing his standard projectile effects with Sonic Boom energy waves.

3. How the Crest Draw System Works

All four 《Street Fighter》 skins are obtained through the Crest (Treasure Chest) draw system — a limited-time gacha-style event. You need to spend Diamonds (MLBB’s premium currency) to draw from event treasure chests, which grants you Crests with each draw. These Crests can then be redeemed in the Crest Shop for skins and other items.

Draw Type	Diamond Cost	Crests Obtained (Average)	Best For
Single Draw	50 Diamonds	~12–15 Crests	Daily discount (25 Diamonds)
10x Draw	450–500 Diamonds	~120–150 Crests	Accumulating Crests in bulk
First Daily Draw	25 Diamonds ✅	~12–15 Crests	Best value in this event

Key mechanics:

Each draw gives you a random number of Crests plus one random in-game item (battle emote, spawn effect, kill effect, etc.).
The first 10 draws guarantee at least 1 permanent collaboration item.
Each skin requires 1,200 Crests to redeem in the Crest Shop.
Alternate costumes (color variants) require an additional 200 Crests (1,400 total per skin).
Crests cannot be transferred between different collaboration events, so be sure to use them before the event ends.

4. Diamond Cost — The Real Price of Each Skin

《Street Fighter 6》 skins do not have a fixed price because the Crest draw system includes RNG. However, based on community testing and the established Crest-to-draw ratios, the following are more realistic price ranges:

Scenario	Draws Required	Diamond Cost
Best-case scenario (maximum optimization)	~80–90 draws	~1,000 Diamonds
Average case (daily discounts + Premium Supply)	~100–110 draws	~2,500 Diamonds
Typical case (unoptimized, direct draws)	~110–120 draws	~4,000–4,500 Diamonds
Worst-case scenario (extremely unlucky, no discounts)	120+ draws	5,000–6,000 Diamonds

Broken down per skin:

Standard price (direct 10x draws): about 4,500 Diamonds per skin
Using daily discounts and Premium Supply: as low as 2,000–2,500 Diamonds per skin
With absolute minimum-cost optimization: about 1,000 Diamonds per skin

💡 Important: If you follow the money-saving strategy in the next section, you can significantly reduce the cost. The difference between the best and worst methods can be as much as up to 5,000 Diamonds per skin — plan ahead.

5. Best Strategy — The Cheapest Way to Get All Skins

The MLBB x Street Fighter 6 event has a very clear lowest-cost route, and it has already been validated through community optimization. Follow the step-by-step strategy below to minimize your diamond spending:

Step 1: Daily Discount Draws (July 3 – August 16)

This is the single most important money-saving measure. Each day, your first single draw costs only 25 Diamonds (instead of 50). Over the 44-day event period, this means:

44 draws at 25 Diamonds each = only 1,100 Diamonds total
This equals the Crests from 44 draws at half price

Step 2: Premium Supply Phases

The event has two Premium Supply phases that grant extra event tokens:

Phase	Date	Action	Reward
Phase 1	July 10	Top up 250 Diamonds	~29–30 free event tokens
Phase 2	July 17	Top up 250 Diamonds	~29–30 free event tokens

Step 3: Weekly Diamond Pass

Purchase 3 Weekly Diamond Passes to accumulate the recharge progress required for Premium Supply while receiving daily diamond refunds. This is actually the most cost-effective way to spend in this event.

Optimize your budget

Strategy breakdown	Diamond cost
44 days of 25-Diamond draws	1,100
Premium Supply Phase 1 (recharge 250 + 1 ten-draw 450)	700
Premium Supply Phase 2 (recharge 250 + 1 ten-draw 450)	700
Total for about 90 optimized draws	~2,500 Diamonds

This optimization method can get you about 90 draws, roughly equivalent to 1,080–1,350 Crests enough to redeem one skin, or close to a full skin. If you want all four skins, calculate proportionally, but the daily discount applies to each skin's draw pool.

Paquito = Ryu	Classic white gi	Alternate color scheme	200 additional Crests

Guinevere = Chun-Li	Dark blue qipao + black tights	Blue tights + martial arts shoes	200 additional Crests
Dyrroth = Guile	Military uniform	Alternate color scheme	200 additional Crests

The alternate version requires an additional 200 Crests per skin (1,400 Crests total for the full skin + variant).

Alternate costume variant	200 Crests (additional)
