What about spares?

Teams are allowed as many different spares as they need throughout the season but have to be still in somewhat the same skill level as the rest of the team. Any team who had a spare have too big of an impact on a game may be at risk of getting an automatic loss.

How do playoffs work?

Playoffs will be a 4 game round robin. The teams you will play and the order you will play them in all depends on where your team finished in the regular season. The top 4 teams in a division will move on to play a semi-final game where the winner will go on to play a best-of-3 finals.
