HOW TO PLAY

Fantasy Archery is a fun, new, archery game that gives you the opportunity to engage in the international world or competitive archery. Select your favourite archers, (digitally) cheer them on and show your friends who has the best knowledge of the sport!

Starting to Play:

Use your $2,500,000 starting budget to select your team of a maximum of 12 international archers. There is no limit on how many archers you can pick and chose from any country, as long as you’re not overspending and staying within budget. Current market value of each archer is based off on his or her points on the Sanlida World Ranking List [WRL], multiplied by a factor of 1.000.

Team Selection will be locked one day before start of competition at 6:00 pm UTC, so make sure to have your selection saved on time!

Team Value:

Every Monday, an updated WRL is published. Archers gaining or loosing points will influence your team value. So you might need to keep an eye on who has something to lose or who has much to gain. More Total Budget means more flexibility whenever you want to change your team for the next event.

Statistics:

The Statistics Centre can be of great help to find the best fit for your team. Filter on value, category and participation in next event, search for the best scoring athlete on average or just look for your favourite archer.

Event Points:

As much as Team Value matters, it’s all about Event Points! Every event archers can score points, based on how well they do. Points are scored in four categories; Qualification Rank, Final Individual Rank, Final Team Rank and Final Mixed Team Rank. Points per ranking position are scored as follows, with the Qualification Rank scoring half the points on the list below:

  • Number 1: 100
  • Number 2: 85
  • Number 3: 70
  • Number 4: 60
  • Number 5: 50
  • Number 6: 47.5
  • Number 7: 45
  • Number 8: 42.5
  • Number 9-16: 35
  • Number 17-32: 20
  • Number 33-64: 10
  • Number 65-128: 5

A maximum of 350 points can be scored by an athlete at a single event with all four catories being contested.

Points for Final Rankings (Individual, Team, Mixed) are only given when the athlete, team or mixed-team participates in the elimination phase. If, after the qualification phase individuals, teams or mixed-teams are cut, no ranking points will be given.
