How it works

In a game where 1 superstar can single handedly win a matchup, Big Voodoo will be able to sleep a little easier.

Big Voodoo's spell allows them to choose one player from an opposing team to be benched each week (score of 0). That voodoo'd player may be replaced by another player and can be warehoused on another team if necessary but they cannot score points in a starting lineup.

Big Voodoo will have an important decision each week whether to keep the power themselves or rent it out to the highest bidder.

What the budget means

Stronger powers start you with less money. In an Extreme league, a team holding Big Voodoo drafts with $150 of auction budget against the $200 baseline. Either way it starts the season with $350 of free-agent bidding money. Choosing a power is choosing a trade-off.

Normal leagues draft snake, so there is no auction budget to spend — see the rules for the full comparison.
