As late April arrives, the familiar "golden bull" icon has reappeared in the Zodiac Summon. That’s right—MLBB’s most steadfast hero skin, Minotaur’s Taurus skin, is back for its annual return window.
Any veteran player who’s been playing MLBB for over two years knows the rotation of the Zodiac skins is super consistent. Just check your calendar—as soon as April 20 hits, the Zodiac icon in the shop will switch right on time from Aries to that gleaming golden bull.
To be honest, Minotaur isn’t a top meta pick in ranked matches, and picking him often gets you pinged by teammates. But if you main support/roam, or simply love the thrill of "the enemy team chases me down only to find they can’t take me out", the Taurus skin is a top-tier collector’s item. Its effects aren’t flashy or over-the-top, especially when activating the ultimate— the sound effects deliver intense, immersive impact.
As this is a Zodiac Summon event, the rules are well-known to most players. While lucky players might pull it in a single draw, average players should plan for the pity system: save up 100 Star Power to redeem it directly. As usual, one ten-pull (five draws) costs 100 Diamonds, so prepare a budget of 1,000 to 2,000 Diamonds to secure it for sure.
Some players might worry about coming up just a few Diamonds short—this small top-up need is perfect for a reliable direct top-up service. For example, many players in my community use COCODP, a dedicated game top-up platform with instant Diamond delivery. You can get the Diamonds right away and claim the Taurus skin in the Zodiac Summon, hassle-free.
If you’re a light spender who doesn’t want to splurge all at once but fears waiting another year if you miss out, my advice is to start saving CoA now. If you already own previous Zodiac skins, each one grants you 10 extra Star Power for this event. Own five old Zodiac skins, and you start with 50 Star Power—even if you’re short on Diamonds, a small top-up of dozens of Diamonds via COCODP will easily get you over the finish line.
Of course, some will ask: "Isn’t next month’s Gemini skin better?" Gemini is great, but it won’t arrive until late May. The charm of Minotaur’s Taurus skin lies in its rarity—not because it’s overpowered, but because anyone who invests in this skin is a true fan. Equipping this skin in-game usually makes teammates think: "This player is a patient, experienced support main."
The Taurus Minotaur skin isn’t a flashy T0-tier effect skin, but it shines for being solid, weighty, and premium—just like the Taurus zodiac sign itself. The event runs for a whole month, so you can test your luck with free or discounted draws in the Zodiac Summon first. Who knows? You might get lucky and pull it in a ten-pull!
