Welcome to Best Ball Blitz, a new way to play fantasy football! All the in-season fun of cheering for your team without the hassle of weekly management.
This innovative game was designed by Best Ball Champion, Justin Herzig, to provide fantasy football fans a way to compete in best ball without the need for an hour long draft. It is as easy as opening up your pack, setting your lineup, and watching your team climb the leaderboard!
How does it work? Every Best Ball pack has 20 cards inside of it. Each card is representative of a city and a position in football. You score fantasy points for the entire position group, not one individual player. For example, if you have the SF RB card, you will score points for every SF RB. Perhaps Christian McCaffrey gets hurt or Elijah Mitchell vultures a TD? No worries as you still get all the points for that position!
Players select 12 cards from the pack of 20 to be their best ball team. Each week the top performing QB, RB, WR, TE, DST, and SUPERFLEX (any position QB, RB, WR, TE, DST) cards are counted and the more points your team scores, the higher up the leaderboard it will climb. Simply open your pack, set your lineup, and sweat the games from there! No weekly management required. The regular season lasts through week 18 and at the conclusion, the winner will be crowned and prizes will be awarded to the top teams.

Pack Contents
Every Football Best Ball pack has 20 cards inside of it. Each card is representative of a city and a position in football. You score fantasy points for the entire position group, not one individual player. For example, if you have the CIN WR card, you will score points for every CIN WR (Ja’Marr Chase + Tee Higgins + Tyler Boyd, etc.).
Lineup Builder
After opening the pack of 20 cards, users create a 12-card lineup by selecting 12 of the 20 in their pack. You must select at least one of each position (QB, RB, WR, TE, DST). This lineup is entered into the contest and will compete against other lineups to win the GOLD in the prize pool, based on the below scoring system.
Scoring System
Fantasy points are accumulated throughout the entire NFL regular season – Week 1 through Week 18. The weekly 6-player “Best Ball” score will count based on the highest scoring 6-card lineup of QB, RB, WR, TE, DST, SUPERFLEX (any position) each week. These weekly scores are then added to the cumulative leaderboard, which determines the winner over the course of the entire NFL regular season.
Simply open your pack, set your lineup, and sweat the games from there! No weekly management required. See below for scoring system details.
