What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

The value story

May 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $4.99. It has been discounted 4 times in the 6 years tracked here, typically at 20 percent off, with about 4 weeks between sales.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 2 percent on value. It is pricier than 65 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 91 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Luck be a Landlord ($9.99, scores 79) beats it on value, while it beats Esports Godfather ($19.99, scores 70).

This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 11 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written April 2021 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 63 percent of the 296 reviews written there were positive, against 87 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it.

Finishing takes 16 hours; clearing it takes 48, which is 3.0 times the campaign.

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

What players say

Everytime, I hear the dark whispers of LoL or OW calling to me like the ring calling to Gollum. I rejoice that I have TFM to play as moba methadone. Pick/Ban draft simulator. It's slowly becoming one of my favorite auto battlers. Gameplay is very straightforward but not incredibly deep. The upgrades for your team could use some enhancement. Mostly, I rushed upgrading my facilities so that I could get better...

Stats do not matter in this game. It is only drafting that matters. Don't be fooled into optimizing player stats/growth, it will do nothing.
