How to play d3challenge

Every challenge begins with the same idea: make your picks before they lock, follow the games, and compare your results. The format determines how those picks are scored.

Choose a format

Tournament brackets

Predict an entire tournament before it begins. Your selections move through the bracket as the real games are played.

Read the bracket guide

Confidence pools

Pick the winners in a group of games, then rank those choices by confidence to add strategic weight to every selection.

Weekly pick’em

Make a new set of picks each week. Results build over the course of a season, rather than in a single tournament.
