How the Season & Calendar Work
A season lasts 68 days and runs on one shared world clock — every club starts and finishes together. Here is the structure from day one to the last.
The 68-day structure
Regular season
22 games in the national league and 22 in the European pyramid, played on alternating days.
Playoffs
All 12 teams keep playing — for the title or for survival.
Offseason
Contracts, the draft and preparation for the new season.
Every club starts and finishes together — there is no "dynamic" start: finalist or not, everyone begins the offseason on the same day.
The dual-track calendar
A European club competes in two tournaments at once — schedules are arranged so they never collide:
National league
Games are played on odd days.
European pyramid
Games are played on even days.
ProBA
The separate US pro league runs its own schedule — also finishing by D63.
The daily rhythm is automated: the world day advances at the same time every day. Log in whenever it suits you — your next tip-off is always visible on the Dashboard.
Playoffs (D45–63)
After the regular season the playoffs run every day without breaks; the latest possible finals dates are reserved up to D63.
Main Playoffs
Best-of-3 series for the title. In European pyramid groups the champion is also promoted to the tier above.
Death Playoffs
A fight to survive: losing can mean relegation — the 12th-placed team drops first.
Offseason & Draft (D64–68)
The final 5 days are for contracts, budget planning and preparing the new season. The key moments:
Draft Day
The 30 ProBA clubs make 60 selections across two rounds. The Lottery decides only the top 4 picks (among the 14 teams that missed the playoffs); the rest of the order follows the season results. European clubs do not draft — their young talent comes through academies and the market.
Roster deadline
Your roster must be complete: if it is not, the system automatically signs the best remaining free agents.
Season history — champions, MVPs and awards — is kept in the Hall of Fame forever.
