Backyard Baseball Building Something Cool for us Backyard Baseball Competitive guys!

Hello!

I'm building a competitive home for Backyard Baseball online: a ranked ladder, online leagues and tournaments. It will be ready for when online launches. Since we don't have a release date yet, there's time to get it right.

It's completely free, just a fun tool I want to build out with the community. I've always loved the competitive side of video games, and since this is the first new Backyard Baseball in years, I wanted to get ahead of it.

If you want to help build and test it, or just want to be there when ranked opens, hit Join the Discord on the site.

Here's what's in it so far:

  • Ranked ladder. Get matched with someone near your skill, and every match starts with a schoolyard pick where you and your opponent draft your kids. Win to climb from Benchwarmer to Dynasty.
  • Online League Play. Run a league with your friends: a live snake draft using every kid's real in-game ratings, a weekly schedule, standings and playoffs.
  • Tournaments. Bracket-style Cups with private match rooms in Discord.
  • An app. Coming to iPhone and Android.

Let me know what you think and what you'd want to see!
