The new Playoff Editor lets you create a much wider variety of playoff formats than before.
You can create variations ranging from playoffs consisting of just a single final to very large playoffs with up to 32 teams.
It is now also possible to create playoffs with, for example, 6, 10, or 24 participating teams, which wasn’t possible before.
The participating teams can be selected individually for each division and conference (if the league has them) and placed in the opening round of the playoffs. For example, you can set up multiple teams in each division and then add wildcard teams from the existing conferences.
You can then either assign a division winner directly to a specific spot, or, for example, place the best (or second-best) of the division winners in a specific spot. It’s also possible to simply set the seeding for the round or give teams a bye.
For all rounds following the opening round, you can enter the matchup in the slots for the teams you want to play there, or you can select the “Re-Seeded” option for the entire round. The teams will then be re-seeded based on the standings, and the best team will play against the worst.
