TOC II Tournament Format

The Leagues

  • Four 8-team leagues - the two WS participants in each league are merged into one Final Table, with the winner declared Tournament Champion

  • These are actual 8-team leagues - this is a change from last year as we have the ability to run 8-team leagues now and don't have to work with unowned teams

  • Users will be randomly spread across leagues - with the exception of factoring in how users want to communicate during the draft (Forums or Discord)

The Draft

  • The season begins with a full team draft, to get everyone as close to equal footing as we can make it. This is 24 round, serpentine draft - draft order determined by random draw.

  • Every player in the league will be dropped to free agency at the outset, and that free agent list is the draft board to choose your players from.

  • The draft is a full serpentine draft, that generally 4-7 days to complete, with each owner usually making multiple picks a day.

  • Keeping things moving - We will help leagues facilitate these drafts to the best of our abilities. The reason that leagues are limited to 8 managers each is to keep the drafts at a manageable length. We're all busy folks - if a league feels their draft is moving too slowly, we'll reserve the right to implement a 12 hour maximum clock before auto-picks are assigned, and will replace an owner if repeatedly receiving auto-picks.

  • There is no trading or free agency involved in the league - you draft your team, you run your team, bing bang boom.
