Wild Card
Your wild card into the finals
Earn Wild Card entries by hitting milestones, topping a leaderboard and holding a streak.
Wild Cards can be applied to enter the Wild Card Lineup.
When FSP Athletes draft their Top 60, 50 spots are chosen from the ratings leaderboard. 10 spots per FSP Athlete are allocated at random from the Wild Card Lineup.
How the rating moves
01You play, the system scores it
On camera, in-app. Your session becomes one number
02The system picks your opponents
You are matched against players near your level. You do not choose, so nobody can stack easy wins
03Each matchup weighs two things
How much you won by, and how tough the opponent was. Beating someone above your rating is worth more than beating someone below you
04Your rating moves by how far you beat expectations
Beat a stronger player and you jump. Scrape past someone you were expected to crush and you can still drop
05You see your rating
Rookie, Amateur, Contender, Elite, Ace, plus your progress and reliability.
Every result shows who you played and the points you gained or lost
The format
One leaderboard.
Anyone can win.
A WBL season means everyone has something worth playing for: a global rating, prizes from the start, action match events throughout, and a route to the finals that does not depend only on being the top performer
