How Swoops works is that users can create teams by choosing from a pool with infinite combinations of physical and skill-based attributes. No two of his basketball players created are the same. This means that every team is unique. After this, users can pitch their team to other teams and the game is played using Swoops simulator technology to pick a winner.
The stakes are very real in Swoops, as players have to pay an ante to participate and whoever wins Season 0 wins a contributing pot. The start of the season will come after Swoops has hosted both a presale and a public mint, after which the players are revealed.
Later this year, the game will transition to Season 1, which includes expansions.
