Perfect Season

11 rolls, a starting eleven, 38 matches. Can you go 38-0?

  1. 1

    Roll

    Every round rolls a kind of legend: an era, a field, or both. Three rerolls.

  2. 2

    Pick

    Take one who fits and put them in any of the eleven spots. Fit decides the rating.

  3. 3

    Play

    After 11 picks your team plays 38 matches and the knockout at once. Go 38-0, lift the trophy, share it.

Solo, free, no account and no clock. About two minutes.

How it works

  1. 1

    Roll and pick

    Eleven rounds, each rolling a kind of legend: an era, a field, or both. Take one who fits and put them anywhere in a 4-3-3: in goal, at fullback, center back, in midfield, on the wing or up front. Three rerolls.

  2. 2

    Fit decides the rating

    Every legend has seven made-up ratings: shooting, passing, dribbling, pace, defending, physical and goalkeeping. Each spot weighs them its own way, so a great passer runs the midfield and the calmest person in history goes in goal.

  3. 3

    Play the season

    38 matches against 19 history teams, home and away: three points for a win, one for a draw. The top eight go into a knockout, one match a round, all the way to the Legends Champions Final.

The best at every position

The highest rated legends at their natural spot. Anyone can play anywhere; away from home a legend loses a few points.

Questions

What is Legends Draft Soccer?
A free soccer draft game with famous people from history. Draft a starting eleven in a 4-3-3 from presidents, scientists, pop stars and athletes, then play a 38-match league season, an eight team knockout and the Legends Champions Final.
How does the draft work?
Eleven rounds, one for each spot. Each round rolls a kind of legend: an era, a field, or both, like Born in the 1800s or Music. Take one legend who fits the roll and put them in goal, at fullback, center back, central midfield, on a wing or at striker. You get three rerolls a run.
Can anyone play any position?
Yes. Every legend has seven made-up ratings: shooting, passing, dribbling, pace, defending, physical and goalkeeping. Each position weighs them its own way, so a great passer is a midfielder and a fast, calm reader of the game is a goalkeeper. Away from their natural position a legend loses a few points, half as many in a neighbouring role.
How is the season decided?
Your team gets a Team OVR from 40 to 99, from every player's rating at their spot, pulled down by the two weakest. It plays each of 19 history teams home and away. A win is three points and a draw one, and the closer two teams are the more often a match ends level. The top eight on the table play a knockout, one match a round: quarterfinals, semifinals and the Legends Champions Final.
Can you really go 38-0?
It is rare. A strong eleven still draws matches it should win, so a perfect league season takes a great team and some luck. Winning the knockout is the more usual way to a trophy.
Can I challenge a friend?
Yes. When the season ends you get a share card and a link. A friend who opens it gets the exact same eleven rolls and the same fixtures, so the two records compare directly.
Are the ratings real?
No. The ratings and blurbs are made up for fun. It is a parody game and is not affiliated with or endorsed by anyone in it, or by any league or club.
Do I need an account?
No. The game is free, needs no sign in and runs in your browser.
