Delta Force's mid-season schedule includes a 2,600 Limited-Time Delta Ticket giveaway running from August 8 through August 28, 2026. The tickets are scheduled to expire on September 4 at 23:59 UTC, so players need a claim plan and a spending deadline rather than treating them like permanent Delta Coins. This guide explains the event timeline, how to verify live tasks, how to avoid mixing currencies, how to evaluate eligible cosmetics, and what to do when the client total does not match expectations.
Kaja's August 5, 2026 revamp gives Mobile Legends: Bang Bang players a more mobile crowd-control Vanguard built around marking targets, dragging multiple enemies, and creating safer initiation angles. This guide explains the redesigned play pattern without relying on unverified live ratios. It covers skill priorities, practical combos, roaming and EXP Lane responsibilities, draft partners, counters, practice drills, and the first-week Horror Whiplash discount.
Gowther (SSR Thunder attacker, live until Aug 5) and Derieri (Ten Commandments SSR, opens Aug 5) hand over banners in the same maintenance. Gowther is proven but niche; Derieri is unconfirmed but higher-priority. The 80-pull pity carries over; the 120 Draw Bonus does not. Decision plan inside.
Derieri's banner opens August 5, 2026. One draw costs 300 Star Fragments; an SSR is guaranteed by 80 pulls and the rate-up hero by 120. The 80-pity carries over from Gowther, the 120 Draw Bonus does not. Full cost math and Star Memory plans inside.
Version 1.8 releases August 5, 2026 and runs until August 26. It adds Derieri the Purity, the new 15-player Hunting Event, the first Memory of Dimensions chapter, Timespace Junction Sectors 11-12, plus 60 free Regular Hero Draw Tickets and several quality-of-life improvements.
Iroi's Archmage outfit drops from The Lifeline board at 200 cumulative pulls: 32,000 Annulith at worst. Milestone 50 gives the Sheepcopter glider and 120 the Three's Company B100 livery. Free August rolls and the monthly pass cut the real cost by thousands.
The Wrong Gate turns every Iroi heal into a team damage buff: +16% ATK, +30% Anima DMG for her, +15% DMG for allies for 20s. It costs up to 12,800 Annulith on the Dreamgate Special banner. Worth it for Iroi mains; skippable — Youthful Fantasy or Clear Skies cover the job.
Build Iroi with The Wrong Gate arc and Speedy Hedgehog console, stack ATK% and ATK on four Type III modules, level Ultimate first, then Skill. She runs behind Shinku in Charge comps or in Blossom teams. Budget alternatives: Youthful Fantasy, Clear Skies, Thea's Night Tavern.
Iroi is live until August 19 as a confirmed healer/buffer. Zankou (expected Aug 19) and Linko (expected Sep 9) are confirmed for 1.3 but their kits are unconfirmed. Pull Iroi if you lack sustain; save for Zankou if you lack an Incantation carry; pity carries over either way.
