March Matness Championship Challenge Rules

Classic Mode Competition

(Note: this is LineupLegends Standard format competition for individual Wrestling Tournaments)

Select the best possible lineup using up your allotted Lineup Points. Each wrestler in every weight class will be worth 1-21 Points. Select 1 wrestler in each of the tournaments weight classes + one additional FLEX wrestler from any weight class. Wrestlers will score Competition points based on their Final Finishing Place at the end of a Tournament.

Wrestlers that come in 1st place will score 144 points for a user’s lineup.

2nd place finishers will score 64 points.

3rd: 32 points

4th: 16 points

5th: 8 points

6th: 4 points

7th: 2 points

8th: 1 point

The lineup entry that scored the most points at the conclusion of the Event wins the Competition.

So in this game mode, it doesn’t matter if a wrestler techs or pins their way through the Tournament versus wining each match by 1 point. All that matters is their Final Finish Place in the Tournament.

Additional Notes: If a match is controversial, scoring will be based on whatever decision is made by the tournament committee.

Dual Meet Mode Competition

Specifically in NCAA Dual Meets, players are always subject to change at the last second. If a player you selected get bumped down, bumped up, or benched by the coach and does not wrestle, unfortunately that player will still score points for the LineupLegends Competition based on whatever it is that their performance ends up being (or not being) in the live match.

The lineup that scored the most points at the conclusion of the Dual Meet wins the Competition.

Additional Notes: If a match is controversial, all scoring will be based on whatever decision is made by the dual meets final official box score.
