All players whose nations will be at WC 2014, are available for drafting, except Messi & Ronaldo. For the purpose of this competition, these players are judged based on their performance level in 2013/2014 season (club and international). Each manager gets to pick 12 players to form a squad (11 starters and 1 substitute). Limiting condition: 1 player from each nation in the squad.
Managerial openings for 8 teams (solo or joint managerial applications are welcome)
Competition format is straight knockout. After the 1st round, winning teams draft from a common pool of players drawn from the eliminated teams (the drafting order will be reversed from that of the primary draft). Post semi-final, winning teams add 1 player from their direct opponent. Keeping in mind the limiting condition, you can either add a player whose nationality you do not have in your squad or replace one that you already have.
Draft setup
* There are 12 rounds of drafting in the primary draft and 4 rounds in the secondary draft
* Primary draft sequence
Round 1,3,5,7,9,11 - starts with Team 1 and ends with Team 8
Round 2,4,6,8,10,12 - starts with Team 8 and ends with Team 1
* You have 8 hours to post your draft pick. If you do not do so, the draft proceeds to the next manager in line and it is up to you to post your draft pick at your earliest convenience.
* Your draft pick is valid only after you have updated the overall list of picks.
* PM the manager next in line after you have made your pick
* After the draft is complete, match threads with public polls will be started where each manager posts their match team, tactics and any persuasive arguments why their team has an upper hand over the opposition etc.
