Malaysia and MLBB: Two-Time World Champions

Malaysia won the IESF (International Esports Federation) World Esports Championship in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang in both 2024 and 2025. Back-to-back titles at the national level put Malaysia in a different position from most Southeast Asian countries in MLBB. That achievement, combined with the WEC25 MLBB World Championship being held in Kuala Lumpur in December 2025, gave Malaysian fans a direct reason to follow the game at the highest level.

Todak is Malaysia's most recognised MLBB team. They compete in MPL Malaysia, the domestic MLBB league which runs on a franchise model with stable team rosters. MLBB drives the largest share of esports betting interest in Malaysia by a clear margin. PUBG Mobile runs as a secondary market with its own national championship schedule running through the year.

MPL Malaysia, IESF Championships and the Esports Calendar

• MPL Malaysia: The main domestic MLBB league. Runs two seasons per year under a franchise model. MPL Malaysia matches are the most actively bet esports events for Malaysian players, with Todak and the other franchise teams carrying strong local followings.
• IESF World Esports Championship: The International Esports Federation's annual multi-title world championship. Malaysia won the MLBB title in 2024 and again in 2025. These results are the strongest national MLBB achievements Malaysia has recorded.
• WEC25 MLBB World Championship: The MLBB world championship held in Kuala Lumpur in December 2025. Malaysia hosting the event gave local players direct access to world-level competition and generated strong local betting interest.
• M-Series World Championship: The annual MLBB world championship for club teams. Malaysian teams compete alongside Indonesian, Filipino and other Southeast Asian sides.
• PUBG Mobile National Championship Malaysia: Runs multiple seasons per year. The main PUBG Mobile betting event for Malaysian players alongside the PUBG Mobile Global Championship.
• VALORANT Champions Tour Pacific (VCT Pacific): The regional VALORANT competition covering Southeast and South Asia. Malaysian teams compete at this level alongside teams from Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand and Singapore.
• The International: Dota 2's annual world championship. Malaysia has a Dota 2 community that follows The International each year.

Betting on MPL Malaysia and PUBG Mobile

MPL Malaysia matches run as best-of-three series through the regular season and best-of-five in playoffs. PUBG Mobile National Championship events produce kill-based markets alongside match winner. The most common markets for Malaysian players:

• Match winner: Pick which team wins the overall series or match. The starting market for MPL Malaysia and PUBG Mobile bets.
• Map winner: Pick which team wins a single map within a series. MPL Malaysia best-of-three and best-of-five matches produce map winner markets at every stage of the tournament.
• Kill totals: A bet on how many kills a team records in a map or match. Most active in PUBG Mobile competitions where team eliminations drive scoring directly.
• First blood: A bet on which team records the first kill. Settled within the opening minutes across MLBB and PUBG Mobile matches.
• Tournament outright: Back a team to win the entire competition before it begins. Most followed for MPL Malaysia playoffs and the M-Series World Championship.

How Malaysian Players Bet on MLBB

• Check the legal position before depositing. Every sportsbook EightOdds recommends holds an international offshore licence. The Common Gaming Houses Act 1953 restricts gambling to licensed venues in Malaysia. Online sports betting is not licensed domestically. Syariah law applies a separate prohibition for Muslim Malaysians regardless of civil legal status. Check local rules before depositing.
• Confirm MLBB markets are listed. Check that MPL Malaysia matches and M-Series events appear in the esports section before registering. Not every sportsbook covers MPL Malaysia domestic league matches.
• Register with your exact Touch 'n Go name. Your sportsbook account name must match your Touch 'n Go eWallet or bank account registered name exactly. Mismatched names delay withdrawals.
• Deposit via Touch 'n Go or DuitNow. Touch 'n Go eWallet deposits are accepted at most recommended sportsbooks and processed in MYR. DuitNow transfers are instant via phone number or national ID. Both methods are available at most sportsbooks covering Malaysia.
