01

The Basics

Each matchup card represents one team's offensive performance in a specific game. Pick a team, and you're betting on them to score goals. The more goals they score, the more points you earn — multiplied by their ranking.

Turf Score Scoring

Every team is ranked 1–48 by offensive strength. The Turf Score is √rank × 0.5 + 0.5. Better offenses get lower Turf Scores, underdogs get higher ones — but the curve is compressed so top teams are still worth picking. Your points = goals scored × Turf Score.

Rank #1 (best offense)

x1

Low reward, high chance of goals

Rank #24 (mid-tier)

x3

Balanced risk & reward

Rank #48 (weakest offense)

x4

High reward if they score

Per-Game Lock

Each selection locks when its specific game kicks off — not all at once. You can change or swap picks for games that haven't started yet, even after confirming your entry.

Example

You picked USA (3pm game) and Haiti (9pm game). At 3:01pm, your USA pick is locked — but you can still swap Haiti for another team until 9pm.
