Collection Draft

The Collection Draft is a fantasy-style snake draft game where you pick cards against AI opponents. Each drafter takes turns selecting real cards from the database. The goal is to build the collection with the highest total estimated value.

In a snake draft, the pick order reverses each round. If you pick 3rd in round 1 (order: 1-2-3-4), you pick 2nd in round 2 (order: 4-3-2-1). This balances the advantage of picking early with getting consecutive picks at the turn.

Each AI drafter has a unique collecting personality — some prefer rookies, others chase vintage cards, and some focus on specific sports. They prioritize cards that match their strategy but also recognize high value picks. They are not perfect — you can outmaneuver them with smart strategy.

You can draft in 4-team, 6-team, or 8-team leagues. Larger leagues mean more competition for top cards, making later picks more strategic. You can also choose between 3, 5, 7, or 10 rounds.

Yes. You can limit the draft to a single sport (baseball, basketball, football, or hockey) or use the full all-sports pool. Only cards valued at $10 or more are included in the draft pool.
