Classic shows the full board. Blind hides the numbers. Chaos locks part of the skill board each round, so you have to work with what is open.

The draft room is where you build the player. The season desk is where the build gets exposed. Great cards need more than one loud rating.

Spin the Draft Board
Each round lands on one historic team from the all-time pool. That team becomes your player group for the pick.

Pick a Legend
Choose the player who fits the build you are chasing. A pure scorer, a two-way wing, and a playmaker all need different picks.

Draft room
Steal One Skill
Take one skill from that player and add it to your build. Once a skill is used, it is locked for the rest of the draft.

Submit or Share
If the build survives the season, send it to the leaderboard or share the recap with friends. If it falls short, draft again with a cleaner plan.
