AF Launches 16 Team Tournament
TOURNAMENTS – Associated Fantasy is happy to premier the largest tournament they’ve ever sponsored, premiering (appropriately enough) for the 2016 Season is the 16×16 Knock-Out Tournament. For an entry fee of just $16.00, teams can get a shot at the $200.00 Champion Pay-Out. Not only that, but 2nd will win $100.00 and 3rd and 4th each take home $50.00 bucks. Like most AF offerings, the Tournament has a few twists and turns. First, teams will get to choose their own draft position! That’s right, by anteing-up on their entry fees with their draft ante, teams can choose exactly where they want to be placed in the live, online draft being held on Wednesday August 31, at 9:00pm EDT.
When the Tournament begins, Weeks 1-3 are for total points with wide-open free agency as the tournament teams fine-tune their squads. The fun really begins in Week 4, where all 16 teams will be seeded into the bracket based on their total points in Weeks 1-6 – it’ll be #1 vs #16, #2 vs #15, and so on. Each stage of the bracket is for 3 weeks, with each match-up being a best 2 out of 3 series where losing twice means you’re done. Eliminated. Knocked-Out. Once the bracket is seeded, free agency is switched to revolving waivers – with initial waiver order based on inverse order of seeding – with free agency only being open a week at a time in the days prior to the start of each match-up series. With AF Classic roster settings and a small bench, managing your personel will be key to avoid being eliminated from the tournament; make it to the end, and you’ll make it to the payday.
