Fantasy Throwdown is traditional head-to-head fantasy football, reduced from a season-long game between 10-12 owners to a single week, two player battle. There is a fantasy football serpentine draft between you and your opponent. The player pool is limited to three NFL games on the upcoming week schedule, selected by the players, to allow for appropriate depth of talent for your draft. The team that scores the most fantasy points for the week, wins.

Fantasy Throwdown allows for various lineup options, including flex players, superflex (flex QB) and even individual defensive players. Plus, players can choose between standard performance and PPR scoring. There are unique strategy aspects to the game, including choosing who wants the 1st or 2nd overall pick in the draft, the game selection for the player pool, and the unique Block. Make sure to read the Fantasy Throwdown rules about the Block.

Throwdown is completely free to play right now. Create an account and play as many games each week as you like for Weeks 16 and 17 of the NFL season, plus Wild-Card Weekend and the Divisional Playoffs. People who play Throwdown love the format, and I hope you will like it too.
