Marble League 2018 was the third edition of the Marble League, and the first winter edition. It was hosted by the Snowballs, the first time the Marble League had a host. A change in the theme coincided with the Winter Olympics that same year, as, similar to 2016, the first event was uploaded on the same day as the opening ceremony of the actual Olympics. This is the final Marble League prior to the original channels' accidental deletion.
The O'rangers were the defending champions having won the summer edition of 2017.
Qualifiers[]
The 2018 Marble League Qualifiers were held in mid-to-late-December of 2017. The Snowballs (as the event's hosts), O'rangers (winners of the ML2017), Savage Speeders (runners-up in ML2017) and Mellow Yellow (3rd place in ML2017) qualified automatically. 24 teams entered the qualification in 3 groups of 8 teams each, where the best 4 teams from each group qualified after 4 events.

Event 1: 5 Meter Ice Dash[]
Event 1 of Marble League 2018 began with the opening ceremony, which featured a beautiful new track created by GrandAdmiralMellacus. The ceremony introduced each of the 16 teams as well as the Ice King and Queen, rulers of the Arctic Circle, along with IMC (International MarbleLympic Committee). The anthem of the Snowballs was played after the torch was lit. The event itself was identical to the 5 Meter Ice Dash featured in the qualifiers.

Event 4: Bobsled[]
The team uses a 3D printed bobsled to slide down a course made of snow and ice as fast as possible. If a marble leaves the bobsled for any reason, then the judges will add a certain number of penalty points. During this event, Team Momo's sled stopped after they started, so there was a retry. The team also received several injuries.

Event 11: Ice Hockey[]
This event is based on Collision from the 2016 and 2017 Marble League. Two teams of marbles ride down a track and collide with each other on the rink, as well as with a set of ball-bearing "pucks". Each team must try to push the pucks into the goal of the opponent but they must also prevent own goals by bouncing away oncoming pucks. Seven pucks (ball bearings) were used to add more action in less time. If a marble crosses the goal line, it won't be counted as a goal. This is the only event in which all five marbles from a team participate.

Trivia[]
- There was a major controversy when M&H Racing did a similar looking event with the same name, resulting in confusion and accusations. This resulted in an agreement in which M&H Racing changed the name to the Marble Winter Games. Jelle has since asked his fans to be respectful to both parties.
- This is the first Marble League where two different teams merged into one team, with Team Momo teaming up with Team Primary due to injuries from Momomo and Momomomo, albeit temporary.
- This was also the first Marble League to use hashtags.
- This Marble League also had a "Search Challenge" in each event where the viewer must spot a certain marble which can be hidden in the stands or somewhere around the track. The difficulty is based on the visibility of the marble and the length of the video.
- The Midnight Wisps became the first expansion team to win the Marble League. The only other teams with this distinction are the Raspberry Racers, who won the very next league, and the Crazy Cat's Eyes, who won Marble League 2023.
- As of 2024, the only way to watch the events is in the all events video, except the qualifiers that got reuploaded in 2019.
