Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Card Bracket Challenge work?
Sixteen cards from the CardVault database are seeded into a single-elimination bracket based on their estimated market value (#1 seed = highest value). In each matchup, you pick the card you'd rather own. Your picks advance through 4 rounds (Sweet 16, Elite 8, Final 4, Championship) until one card is crowned champion.
Is the daily bracket the same for everyone?
Yes! The Daily Bracket uses the same 16 cards for everyone on a given day, seeded the same way. This means you can compare your bracket picks with friends. Random mode generates fresh brackets for unlimited play.
How are cards seeded?
Cards are seeded 1-16 based on their estimated raw market value, with #1 being the most valuable. Like March Madness, #1 seeds face #16 seeds in the first round, #2 faces #15, and so on. This creates interesting matchups between high-value and low-value cards.
What does "card you'd rather own" mean?
It's your choice! You might pick based on investment potential, personal fandom, aesthetic appeal, rarity, or any other reason. There's no wrong answer — the bracket reveals your collecting preferences and values.
Can I filter by sport?
Yes! You can run brackets for all sports combined, or filter to baseball-only, basketball-only, football-only, or hockey-only brackets. Sport-specific brackets create more focused matchups between cards of the same type.
Card values are estimates. Bracket matchups are for entertainment. Your picks reflect personal preference, not financial advice.
