Watch MPL PH, ID and MY Together: S18 Playoffs Guide

To watch MPL Philippines, MPL Indonesia and MPL Malaysia live together, open one grid with one channel per square: @mplph.official, @MPLIndonesia and @MPL-Malaysia, plus the global English feed that Liquipedia lists on MLBB eSports. All four are free YouTube channels. The Season 18 playoffs start this week and run back to back: MPL PH from 21 to 25 October 2026, MPL MY from 28 October to 1 November, and MPL ID from 4 to 8 November. They do not overlap with each other, so the useful setup is one saved grid that you reopen for each league, with the local broadcast and the English caster side by side. This guide lists the dates, the match times in UTC, the official channels, and what else runs in the same weeks.

Which YouTube channel carries each MPL?

Each league runs its main broadcast in the local language on its own channel. The leagues also stream on TikTok and Facebook (and MPL ID on Vidio), but ViewGrid grids play YouTube, Twitch, Kick and Rumble embeds, so the table lists the YouTube channels.

League	Official YouTube channel	Main broadcast language	Season 18 playoffs
MPL Philippines	@mplph.official	Filipino	21-25 October 2026
MPL Malaysia	@MPL-Malaysia	Malay	28 October - 1 November 2026
MPL Indonesia	@MPLIndonesia	Indonesian	4-8 November 2026
English (per Liquipedia)	@MLBBesportsOfficial	English	follows the league schedules

Two handles are worth checking before you build a grid. Some listings, including Liquipedia's MPL PH page, give the channel as "MPLPhilippines", but the YouTube handle @MPLPhilippines does not resolve; the working channel, titled "MPL Philippines", is @mplph.official. The English feed is listed on Liquipedia under an older handle, @MLBBeSports, which also does not resolve; the channel titled "MLBB eSports" is now at @MLBBesportsOfficial. The league sites do not state which channel carries English commentary, so open it on match day before you rely on it.

Liquipedia also lists regional MLBB channels as secondary streams: @MobileLegendsPhilippines, @MobileLegends_Indonesia and @MobileLegendsBangBangMalaysia. The organisers have not confirmed them as playoff feeds, so treat them as optional extra squares.

When are the Season 18 playoffs, in UTC?

The regular seasons are over: MPL PH finished on 11 October 2026, and MPL MY and MPL ID on 18 October, according to Liquipedia. The top six teams in each league go on to the playoffs. The times below come from the official league sites and are converted to UTC.

MPL Philippines - 21-25 October 2026, PhilSports Arena, Pasig City (Moonton, ph-mpl.com)

• 21-23 October: two series a day, at 07:00 and 11:00 UTC (3:00 and 7:00 PM Philippine time).
• 24 October: Lower Bracket Final at 09:00 UTC (5:00 PM).
• 25 October: Grand Final at 09:00 UTC (5:00 PM).

MPL Malaysia - 28 October to 1 November 2026 (my.mpl.mobilelegends.com)

• 28-30 October: 07:00 and 11:00 UTC (15:00 and 19:00 Malaysia time).
• 31 October and 1 November: 09:30 UTC (17:30 Malaysia time).
• Liquipedia lists Stadium Juara at Bukit Kiara, Kuala Lumpur, as the playoff venue; the league site's schedule page does not name it.

MPL Indonesia - 4-8 November 2026 (id-mpl.com)

• 4-6 November: 06:00 and 11:00 UTC (13:00 and 18:00 WIB).
• 7 November: 09:00 UTC (16:00 WIB).
• 8 November: Grand Final at 09:00 UTC (16:00 WIB).
• Venue: Liquipedia and Indonesian press (Medcom) place the playoffs at Jatim Expo in Surabaya. The league site lists XO Hall in Jakarta as its general venue, so check id-mpl.com closer to the date.

The three leagues use the same format, per Liquipedia: seeds 3-6 start in a single-elimination Round 1, seeds 1-2 get a bye into a double-elimination Round 2, series are Bo5, and the Lower Bracket Final and Grand Final are Bo7. The champion and runner-up of each league qualify for the M8 World Championship.

Can you watch MPL PH, ID and MY at the same time?

Not during these playoffs. The three blocks are staggered week by week, so on any given day one MPL league is live at most. What lines up is the clock: all three leagues play their afternoon series around 06:00-07:00 UTC and their evening series at 11:00 UTC, and their finals between 09:00 and 09:30 UTC. If you follow MPL from Europe, that is morning to early afternoon; from the Americas, it is overnight.

That shapes how a multi-league grid is useful this month:

• One grid, three leagues. Save a grid with all three league channels and the English feed. Each week, one league's square is the live one; the others are there for when that league starts. On /home you can see which followed channels are live right now.
• Local feed plus English. During each playoff week, the most practical two-square grid is the league's own channel next to the English channel, with one unmuted.
• League plus regional channel. If you want a second angle on the same league, add the regional MLBB channel for that country from the list above.

What else runs in the same weeks?

King Pro League Grand Finals 2026 (Honor of Kings). The Play-In Stage runs 20-22 October in Guangzhou, the Knockout Stage 27 October - 8 November in Changsha, and the Grand Final is on 14 November 2026 at Chengdu Phoenix Hill Sports Park Gymnasium, per Liquipedia. That puts KPL matches in the same weeks as all three MPL playoffs. Liquipedia lists an English broadcast just for the top-four stage, on HoK Esports. Start times for the later stages have not been published yet, so check the HoK Esports channel close to each date.

M8 World Championship. The champions and runners-up from MPL PH, ID and MY all qualify for M8, which takes place in Istanbul, Türkiye, in January 2027 (Moonton). Liquipedia lists Bangkok, Thailand, as the host of the Wildcard stage. Exact dates have not been announced. At M8 the regional channels in the table above become useful together again, because the qualified teams from different countries meet in the same event.

How to set it up on ViewGrid

1. Open an event page: MPL Philippines, MPL Indonesia or MPL Malaysia. Or go to viewgrid.tv and paste the live stream link from each channel in the table, one per square.
2. Add the English feed from @MLBBesportsOfficial if you want an English caster next to the local broadcast. On desktop a grid holds up to 20 streams; on a phone, up to 6.
3. Unmute the stream you want to hear and mute the others. Switching from the Filipino, Malay or Indonesian feed to English is a mute on one square and an unmute on another.
4. Sign in and save the grid, so the same layout is ready for each playoff week and for M8 in January 2027. Every grid is also a shareable link, if you watch with friends.
5. On /home, follow @mplph.official, @MPLIndonesia, @MPL-Malaysia and @MLBBesportsOfficial (up to 50 channels across Twitch, YouTube and Kick). The page shows which of them are live right now, and one tap opens the live ones together as a grid.
6. On an event card, use "Remind me": you get one email when that event's official streams actually go live.

More on following channels is in our post on your live home. If you watch mostly on a phone, our small-screen grid guide applies here too, and following team and caster streams covers mixing official feeds with team channels.

What we see in our own data

We do not have MPL-specific numbers. What we can share comes from a sample of 2,392 grids opened on ViewGrid between 3 September and 3 October 2026. YouTube was present in 65% of those grids, which matters here because every MPL league broadcasts on YouTube. 36% of the grids held five or more streams, about the size of a three-league grid with an English feed and one spare square. 23% of grids were opened in the iOS and Android apps and 26% on mobile web. People also keep screens open for hours: on 22 September 2026, an Indonesian national news wall was among the grids that stayed open for 5-8 hours on desktop computers.

Frequently asked questions

Can I watch MPL PH, MPL ID and MPL MY live at the same time?

Not during the Season 18 playoffs, because they run in separate weeks: PH 21-25 October, MY 28 October - 1 November and ID 4-8 November 2026. You can save one grid with all three channels and reopen it each week.

What time do the MPL playoffs start in UTC?

MPL PH and MPL MY play at 07:00 and 11:00 UTC on their early playoff days, and MPL ID at 06:00 and 11:00 UTC. The finals start at 09:00 UTC (PH and ID) and 09:30 UTC (MY).

Where can I watch MPL in English?

Liquipedia lists the English broadcast on the global MLBB eSports YouTube channel, now at @MLBBesportsOfficial. The league sites do not list it, so check the channel on match day.

What is the official YouTube channel for MPL Philippines?

It is @mplph.official, titled "MPL Philippines". The handle @MPLPhilippines does not resolve on YouTube, even though some listings use it.

Is MPL free to watch?

Yes. All three leagues stream on their own YouTube channels, which you can open on ViewGrid inside YouTube's official embedded player. ViewGrid does not host or re-stream any video.

Does ViewGrid show MPL streams from TikTok, Facebook or Vidio?

No. ViewGrid grids use embeddable players from YouTube, Twitch, Kick and Rumble. For MPL, use the leagues' YouTube channels.
