How a Challenge Unfolds
Every challenge follows the same rhythm — five phases from first pick to final rankings.
Join a Challenge
Join a challenge that's created automatically every matchday. Premier League & Bundesliga live, more leagues soon.
Build Your Squad
Study the matchups and adapt to the assigned formation. Pick 11 players within budget — max 4 from one club. Every slot counts, so choose cleverly.
Squad Ready!
Squad full and within budget? You're ready — no submit, no extra step. Your XI locks in automatically when the first match of the matchday kicks off.
Watch the Points Roll In
Squads lock at kickoff. Live match data feeds your score in real time — ratings, goals, assists, cards, clean sheets.
Climb the Rankings
Final points calculated. See where you rank in the challenge. Season rankings accumulate — prove consistency over time.
Transparent. No Black Box.
Every point is traceable. Live match ratings plus position-specific bonuses. You always know exactly why your squad scored what it scored.
Rating Points
Based on official 0-10 match ratings sourced from live data. Higher rating = more points.
Position Bonuses
Goals, assists, clean sheets, and cards. Position matters — a defender scoring earns +8!
| Action | GK | DEF | MID | FWD |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Goal | +10 | +8 | +6 | +5 |
| Assist | +4 | +4 | +4 | +4 |
| Clean Sheet | +8 | +6 | +2 | 0 |
| Yellow Card | -2 | -2 | -2 | -2 |
| Red Card | -5 | -5 | -5 | -5 |
Clean sheet = opponent scored 0 goals in the entire match. No partial credit.
The Formula
Total = Rating + Goals + Assists + Cards + Clean Sheet
Climb the Rankings
Two ways to prove yourself: dominate individual challenges and earn your season tier.
Challenge Rankings
After each challenge, all managers are ranked by total squad points. Simple — the best squad wins.
Season Tiers & Standings
Every challenge earns you a placement score based on your percentile finish. Consistency across the season determines your final tier.
Finish in the top 5% of a challenge? You earn a Platin-tier score for that round. Your season score combines your average placement with participation across available rounds.
Season Score Formula
Score = avg. Placement × √(Participation) × √(Rounds)
Minimum 3 challenges to qualify for season standings

Prices are based on each player's historical average performance relative to the best player in the pool. Better stats = higher price. Prices are set when the challenge is created and don't change.
