In Brief:
- Sorare (official site) has rolled out European Nations competitions aimed at fantasy managers over the international football break.
- Running September 21 through October 7, the Limited European Nations Pro Board carries a $25,000 prize pool.
- In Season cards earn points from national team fixtures, so managers stay busy while clubs are idle.
New competitions for managers
With club football paused, Sorare’s freshly launched European Nations competitions give fantasy managers something to play for. The Limited European Nations Pro Board puts up a $25,000 prize pool in total and opens across every card scarcity.
Points will come thick and fast: most nations are scheduled for four fixtures before the competition wraps on October 7. Rare, Super Rare and Unique each get their own Arenas, with cash rewards spread over five game weeks.
Pro Board details
Entry to the European Nations Pro Board calls for four In Season cards, and no Step Clock caps how far a manager can climb. Five levels sit behind score thresholds: 360 points clears Level 1 for $500, 380 points takes Level 2 for $1,500, Level 3 arrives at 420 points for a $30 prize, Level 4 sits at 450 points for $200, and Level 5 at 460 points unlocks a slice of the $25,000 prize pool.
Managers who finish the streak can go again and claim further shares of the pool.
Prize pool structure
That $25,000 is split between everyone who qualifies, so what any single manager receives hinges on how many others reach Level 5. Figures are shown as USD equivalents, though payouts land in ETH, SOL or cash depending on a user’s settings and local regulations.
Boosted cards
European Nations Boosted Cards, which grant a 15 percent scoring edge, will surface in Flash Sales while the competition runs. They are not a requirement to enter, but they can swing a lineup’s outcome — particularly for managers scrapping over narrow score thresholds.
Separate Arenas for rarer cards
Rare, Super Rare and Unique squads are routed into their own Arenas instead of the Pro Board. Stretching the format across five gameweeks fits the international calendar and keeps players involved while clubs are on break.
Importance for managers
International windows have long been dead time for fantasy football. By building competitions around national team fixtures, Sorare keeps In Season cards meaningful right through the pause. The streak structure hands casual players concrete targets rather than the usual head-to-head ladder, while the shared prize pool still leaves something for the top end to chase.
Sorare overview
Built around officially licensed digital player cards, Sorare lets managers assemble lineups that score according to real player performances, with NBA and MLB among the sports covered alongside football. Supply is fixed per rarity — 1,000 Limited, 100 Rare, 10 Super Rare and a single Unique — and a secondary market handles trading so collectors can round out their squads.
The Limited European Nations Pro Board stays open until October 7, the same date the 15 percent card boost expires.
