Is Legends Deck free to play?
Yes, Legends Deck is free to play. You earn coins through daily rewards, completing challenges, winning games, and achievements. These coins are used to purchase card packs and trade on the marketplace.
What platforms does Legends Deck support?
Legends Deck runs in any modern web browser on desktop and mobile. It is also available as a Progressive Web App (PWA) that you can install on your home screen for a native app experience on iOS and Android.
Cards & Collection
How do I get new cards?
You can acquire cards by opening packs (Starter, Pro, or Elite), purchasing from the marketplace, earning through challenges and achievements, or receiving daily login rewards. Each pack type has different card quantities and rarity odds.
What do card ratings mean?
Card ratings range from 0-99 and reflect overall player ability. Common cards are rated 0-74, Uncommon 75-84, Rare 85-91, Legendary 92-96, and Perfect 97-99. Ratings are based on real MLB Statcast data including exit velocity, spin rate, and advanced sabermetrics.
Can I have duplicate cards?
Yes, you can own multiple copies of the same player card. Duplicates can be listed on the marketplace for sale, used in card crafting, or kept as trade assets. Cards you craft into Legendary or Perfect are account-bound and cannot be sold or traded. Each card instance has a unique ID.
What are card rarities?
Cards range from Common to Perfect rarity, with each tier offering progressively stronger stats and visual effects. Higher-rarity cards feature holographic finishes and enhanced ratings derived from real Statcast data. Collect complete team sets to unlock special rewards.
Team Building & Gameplay
How do I build my team?
Go to "My Team" to construct your 26-man roster. Assign players to defensive positions, set your batting order (1-9), choose a starting pitcher, and build bullpen depth. Balance your lineup with a mix of contact hitters, power hitters, and speed players.
How does game simulation work?
Legends Deck uses a Statcast-powered V2 simulation engine that models pitch-by-pitch gameplay. The engine accounts for pitcher arsenals, batter tendencies, park factors for all 30 MLB stadiums, umpire tendencies, platoon splits, clutch factors, and fatigue — producing realistic baseball outcomes.
What game modes are available?
The two core modes are Franchise (run a full front office — trades, free agency, drafts, and a simulated season) and the Card Game (collect players, build lineups, and play). You can also play Exhibition games (single games vs AI), climb the Ranked ladder, and play Season mode. Each offers different rewards and challenges.
How do park factors affect games?
Each of the 30 MLB stadiums has unique park factors that influence gameplay. Coors Field boosts hitting, while Oracle Park favors pitchers. Park factors affect home run probability, hit distances, and overall scoring — just like real baseball.
Marketplace & Trading
How do I sell cards on the marketplace?
Go to your Collection, select a card, and choose "List for Sale." Set your asking price based on market trends. Your listing will be visible to all players. You can cancel listings at any time before a sale completes.
How is card pricing determined?
Card prices are set by players and driven by supply and demand. Use the Market Intelligence tools to view price history, recent sales, and market trends for any player card before buying or selling.
Are marketplace transactions safe?
Yes, all marketplace transactions are processed through our secure backend. Coins are deducted and cards are transferred atomically — meaning neither party can lose their assets during a trade.
