We haven't even started the leagues yet and I must say this has been the most fun I've had with this game in a very long time. It certainly renewed my interest in playing, which I had lost. I still have no newly created teams since the transition, so I'm eager to get things started!
The draft will likely be more enjoyable than the actual leagues unless you have a competitive team. What has made this scary long draft even more enjoyable is that all 12 managers have checked in regurlarly and kept the draft moving along much better than I had hoped. It only takes one person to go a couple of days every time their turn is up to really make the draft brutal.
I agree. We often got through multiple rounds per day, which is certainly a bonus.
I drafted my teams in the hopes of being competitive in all 3 leagues. The beauty of doing this with the mystery card set is that you never know what you're going to get and what looked like the worst team going in could end up the winner.
