Welcome to the Phantasy Team Competition!

You will select your team members from the rosters available below, and will be awarded points according to how your players fare in their tournament games.

You must have one GK (goal keeper) and then you can use one of the following formations found below. (Formations listed as DF-MF-FW)

5-4-1
4-5-1
3-6-1
4-4-2
4-3-3

In other words, if you choose 4-4-2, then you want to place 4 defenders, 4 midfielders, and 2 fowards on your team along with the goalie of your choice.

In addition, during group play you may not choose more than 3 players from one team.

Rules for gaining points are as follows.

Goal by FW- 4 pts
Goal by MF- 5 pts
Goal by DF- 6 pts
Assist- 3 pts
Shutout, GK- 4 pts
Shutout, DF- 4 pts
Shutout, MF- 1 pt
Allows 1 goal, GK- 2 pts
Allows 1 goal, DF- 2 pts
3 GK saves- 2 pts
Yellow Card- -1 pts
Red Card- -3 pts

And just like last time you can gain extra points for pretourney and playoff predictions!

And this year we're going to have a star system for drafting your team. Players with a star by them are considered by Arda Kicker Magazine to be solid players with a higher liklihood of scoring than other players at their position. Players with 2 stars are the cream of the crop, and are the most likely to gain points at their position. The team they play on and their name recognition can contribute slightly to their star status. And of course, there is no guarantee that star players will score more. It's just more likely.

The team that you select may not exceed SIX total stars. (number may change after conversation with co-mods, and it might go up for the playoffs as well)

If you have any questions, please ask. It's not as complicated as it looks.

Rosters and groupings coming up next!

Note on the rosters- If a MF or DF is listed lower down the roster (towards the FWs), then they are more likely to be involved in the offense than those MFs or DFs listed higher up towards the GK. Of course, there is no guarantee MFs closer to FWs will score more, but their chances are generally better.

Note on trades- After the first two rounds of group play, you can draft a completely new team. Unlimited trades. After the third and final round of group play, you are allowed six trades. After each playoff round, you are allowed only two trades. Do not under any circumstances edit your old teams once play has started. If you want to trade someone, make a new post stating the trade and list your new team.
