FANTASY football is a major part of fans enjoyment of the game but now it’s moving into the metaverse.
Football has arrived in the world of NFTs but it isn’t as complex as it sounds.
What is NFT fantasy football game Sorare?
To play Sorare you need to understand the rules of traditional fantasy football.
Players choose an imaginary team from a league, they then score points based on the performances of the real life players they have picked.
You can play against friends in your own football league and see who wins.
The NFT aspect relates to the players cards, of which you have five.
Using digital collectibles with the blockchain technology means that the cards are provably scarce.
The metaverse and NFTs are evolving into more than tokens, they are becoming crucial elements of modern gaming advances.
How does Sorare work?
The game lets you buy over 100 licensed player cards, you own the NFT player card and can resell players whenever you choose.
You can decide which league you want to play in from rookie to pros.
Each week you select your line up of players and those with the most points win – exactly like traditional fantasy football.
However, here you can win more than bragging rights or a pint down the pub.
Top players can win rare cards and cryptocurrency but you can play without spending a penny.
The most expensive card was sold in March 2021, it was one of a kind Cristiano Ronaldo.
It was bought in the Sorare Transfer Market for $289920.
