Introducing the NFLPA Playoff Replica Showdown in Upland!

We're thrilled to bring a new competitive twist to this playoff season with our latest event: the NFLPA Playoff Replica Showdown. Here's everything you need to know to get in on the action.

This is an opportunity for us to trial replica functionality in Upland. This event focuses on the strategic use of burning Essentials.

What is a playoff memento replica?

A Playoff Memento Replica is a distinctive and uncommon item, mirroring the key features of an actual memento. It encompasses all the user interface elements like player images and details, along with game statistics. Additionally, if the original memento has a wearable feature, the replica retains this attribute. Each Playoff Memento Replica is limited to 10 mints, and its fan score is calculated at 70% of the original memento's score.

Replica Showdown

The aim of this event is to acquire Replicas for every playoff game. In each matchup, you have the chance to obtain replicas representing both teams involved.

How to Qualify

To participate and be eligible for rewards simply burn Essentials before the kickoff of each game. It’s all about timing! 

Divisional round  burn window: 

Start: Jan 18th 9am PST   
End: Jan 20th 9am PST

Conference  round  burn window: 

Start: Jan 25th 9am PST   
End: Jan 27th 9am PST

Big Game burn window: 

Start: Feb 8th 9am PST

Scoring System 

You gain one point for every Essential you burn from the teams involved in that game. This includes team essentials burned from past seasons.

If the player associated with your burned Essentials turns out to be the top performer in the game, you earn five points for each Essential you burned of that player.

Example: If you burn McCaffrey essentials from Carolina, it will not yield any points for San Francisco. However, you can earn 5 points for each essential burned if McCaffrey is designated as a top performer in that game. These points will be reflected only on the Final Leaderboard.

The jersey memento of the top player from each team will be issued 10 replicas. This will be determined based on the number of fire stats they receive. If multiple players qualify as top performers, Upland will make a random selection to determine the designated top performer.

Leaderboard

Players can monitor their progress and compare their standings with others on the event leaderboard.

There will be leaderboards at play here:

  • Live Leaderboard (Burn Window Phase): This is where the focus is solely on the team's performance. It's a sneak peek into the team tactics and their early positions in the game.

  • Final Results (Post-Game Showdown): This is the big one, the final scoreboard. It combines individual player scores with team points to crown the top 10 champs. These are the ones who walk away with the replicas. This leaderboard will be posted after each round.

Note: Leaderboard will be added later today (01/18/23)

Rewards

Players will have the chance to secure one of the ten exclusive limited edition replicas of the top player from each team, awarded every game. These coveted replicas will be given to the top 10 players with the highest burn score for each team.When players have an equal number of points, the winner of the replica will be the one who burned the first essential.

Conclusion

This event is about making strategic decisions under pressure. Will you play it safe or take a gamble on an underdog? Your choices could lead to exclusive rewards and a spot at the top of the leaderboard. Good Luck!


*Live Leaderboard will update once an hour.
