Mobile Legends Squad Name Guide
A guide to choosing and creating a squad in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, including name ideas and the costs for premium features.
Choosing a strong squad name is a key first step for any Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) group, whether playing casually or competitively. The name establishes a squad's identity and reputation in the game's community, which begins at account level 20.
Squads are small communities of like-minded players that users can join or create. The process of creating a squad is straightforward, but building a notable presence starts with selecting the right name. This guide compiles suggestions and outlines the creation process.
How to create your squad
Creating a squad requires reaching account level 20 first. Players then tap the squad icon below their friends list, select the 'Create Squad' tab, and fill in the necessary information, including the squad name and region. Creators must also decide on invitation permissions and choose between a free or premium squad.
| Squad Type | Unlock Requirement / Cost | Max Squad Size Bonus |
|---|---|---|
| Free Squad | Play 10 matches with two friends | No bonus stated |
| Premium Squad | 199 Diamonds | +4 maximum members |
The free squad requires playing ten matches with two friends to unlock. The paid option, costing 199 Diamonds, increases the maximum squad size by four slots. For players focused on building a large community, the premium squad's larger capacity is beneficial. Those just playing with friends may prefer the free version.
Picking an effective name
A good MLBB squad name should be memorable and easy to recognize, especially for squads aiming to compete or build a community profile. It is more than just cool-sounding words. The name will also appear as a short squad tag, so avoiding complicated spellings is advised to ensure teammates and opponents can remember it.
The name should reflect the squad's personality, be it aggressive, competitive, funny, or laid-back. Having several alternative names ready is also recommended, as the first choice may already be taken by another group. Checking current standings can offer insight into names already in use by competitive teams.
Changing your squad's name
To change a squad name in MLBB, players need to click the edit icon next to the squad name in the menu. This action requires a Squad Rename Card, which costs 299 Diamonds in the in-game shop. This cost is a consideration for leaders thinking about rebranding their group's identity.
The source, esports.gg, notes that squad name lists are updated regularly for players seeking fresh ideas. For leaders managing their team's competitive schedule, integrating plans with the fixtures calendar can help coordinate practice sessions. The final step in squad creation is tapping the gold button to complete the process.
