8 man tournaments
round robin 22 games with each opponent, so mini season 154 games, or less if some prefer.

250 different cards are randomly selected by the computer (diversified enough to make 8 complete teams) and in the beginning players take turns drafting 1 by 1, 30 seconds per pick, otherwise computer picks for you. If no pick 3 rounds in a row, computer autodrafts for that team thereafter, or if player selects the provided autodraft button . That will still take up almost 2 hours if everyone insists on picking every player, so maybe this isn't such a good idea, but some may like it, if playing with friends. Tournament has a definite starting time and does NOT start immediately when filled. (Obviously, everyone has to be available to draft at the same time).

OPTIONAL:

After season is completed, players can discard 5 cards and draft 5 new ones from 50 computer selected "free agents" and play season 2 and on and on it goes.
Replacement human players can be sought to keep the league going if someone drops out.

Rewards -- probably not even necessary, but a few packs to the winner and runner up.
