How to play Fantasy Football?

As we have seen, Sorare allows you to collect cards, but also to participate in a game of fantasy football by creating a team with your cards.

On a weekly basis, Sorare organizes Game-Weeks according to the football matches scheduled in reality. If the player has cards, whose players have a match in real life, then it is possible for the player to participate in a match in the sports simulation game.

Using Opta and its expertise in sports data, the statistics company assigns points to players registered for the match in Sorare compared to the player's actual performance in reality. Sorare add a multiplier to these points. At the end of the week, all players' points are added together and you will be ranked among the other players. Depending on the ranking and the league played, it is possible to obtain rewards either in cryptocurrency (ETH) or in Rare or even Super Rare cards.

What are the different leagues?

Before detailing the different leagues, it is important to note that each league has its own registration criteria, based in particular on the scarcity of cards to be used in a particular league. Therefore, it is necessary to check the necessary cards before participating in a competition.

Warning: Sorare and speculation

Although it is a game, Sorare is based on the blockchain. Playing this game requires cryptocurrencies, the price of which can be very volatile due to various factors. It is therefore important to understand the risks and not to invest more money than you are prepared to lose. It is therefore important to do research and understand the risks before deciding to invest in Sorare.

Conclusion

Sorare paves the way for a new way of conceiving the sports simulation game.

Is it interesting to invest in a game that is based on still recent technology and whose future is uncertain?

It is difficult to predict with certainty the future of Sorare in terms of evolution and adoption. However, there are reasons to believe that it could be viable in the long term.

First of all, Sorare is based on blockchain technology which is considered as an innovative and high potential technology. The platform uses blockchain technology to ensure the authenticity and ownership of digital cards, allowing users to collect, store or trade them with other users.

Next, the NFT (Non-Fungible Token) market is growing rapidly, and Sorare is one of the first to focus on the application of blockchain technology in the sports world. This could give them a competitive advantage over companies entering the market later.

Finally, Sorare has succeeded in attracting important partners, in particular football clubs and professional players who have chosen to work with them. This is particularly the case of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar Junior or Kyllian Mpabbé. This helps to strengthen the credibility of the platform

However, it is important to note that blockchain-based games and NFTs are still an evolving industry, and there are still uncertainties about their long-term viability. It is therefore important to stay informed of the latest news concerning Sorare, and more broadly, vis-à-vis the cryptocurrency sector.
