📜 Draft Format
Traditional: No star limit for highest-quality games, captains given total freedom in 4 dueling slots and 6 on basing.
Rule of 7: Guarantees playtime (1 in dueling, 2 in basing).
If a lineup is submitted without the necessary “7s,” the game will result in an automatic forfeit, or be forfeited post game review.
Window: Opens Week 1 - Closed TBD
