Type of Draft

WITH CREDITS

The President assigns a budget in credits that each participant in the Draft will use to build their roster (through an offline auction). The remaining credits can then be used during the market phases.

EXAMPLE

Deciding to start with 300 credits each, participants take turns calling out a player of their choice, automatically offering 1 credit. Other participants can decide to raise, always being careful not to use up all their available credits before completing the roster. At the end of the auction, the participant with the highest bid wins the player, who must then be manually entered into their respective team by the President, during or at the end of the auction.

WITHOUT CREDITS

The allocation of players will take place without the use of credits. In this case as well, specific methods must be defined offline by the users (e.g., calling order). The President must still assign a post-Draft budget (which can also be zero) to be used for acquiring free agents or proposing trades.

EXAMPLE

Using a random draw, the calling order among the Draft participants is determined. With no credits, the chosen player is automatically acquired into their roster. After each selection round, the calling order reverses from the previous round, starting again from the last. The operation is repeated until all rosters are completed. In this case as well, the President must manually enter the selected players into their respective teams.
