TFT’s Riftbeast Cup runs on 4–6 September 2026, opening the Enchanted Wilds Pro Circuit. APAC play starts at 6pm Malaysia time.
For Malaysian viewers, the important calendar trap is the Americas broadcast: its evening competition falls early the following morning here. Set your reminder by the region you want to watch, rather than copying the event’s headline dates into every calendar entry.
Riftbeast Cup start times in Malaysia
| Region | Start in MYT | Malaysia dates |
|---|---|---|
| APAC | 6pm | 4–6 September |
| EMEA | 10pm | 4–6 September |
| Americas | 4am | 5–7 September |
Singapore time and Malaysia time are both UTC+8. No hour adjustment is needed; retain the next-day marker for Americas. These are starts, not guaranteed finish times.
Where to watch the matches
Use Riot’s Riftbeast Cup viewing announcement for player channels and featured co-streamer updates. Watching does not require a TFT Coins purchase.
Choose a stream covering your preferred region before setting aside the evening. If following Americas live is impractical, look for a replay on the chosen channel; do not assume a replay has already been uploaded.
How the winner is decided
The final resets points. Reach 20, then win a game to take the title. If nobody completes that sequence within eight games, the highest points total wins. The champion qualifies for Tactician’s Crown.
Riot’s prize graphic totals US$30,200; the surrounding announcement rounds it to US$30K.
Choose cosmetics for your own matches
A broadcast can help you choose an arena or tactician look for your own games, but a cosmetic purchase is separate from learning a player’s strategy. Check the live mobile shop for the exact item and currency price before choosing a top-up amount. An appearance on stream does not prove that the item is currently sold.
If an arena from your Riftbeast Cup viewing is available in your mobile shop and you want it, subtract your existing balance from its price, then buy TFT Coins for the arena you spotted during Riftbeast Cup. Review the available amounts instead of assuming there is an exact-match package.
Check your mobile account before topping up
Riot’s PC and mobile account guidance distinguishes shared cosmetic inventory from currency: mobile does not use PC RP, and shared content requires the same Riot account. Watching a PC player therefore does not tell you which currency to buy on your phone.
For Teamfight Tactics Mobile (MY), confirm that you are funding your intended Malaysia mobile account. Copy its full Riot ID, including the tagline, and compare it with your order. When moving from the Riftbeast Cup broadcast to your own mobile games, verify those details, then top up Teamfight Tactics Mobile (MY) with your checked Riot ID. Being in Malaysia alone does not establish a foreign account’s eligibility.
