Wipeout Draft Cup

Salaries & Draft Simulator

Committee-voted salaries (phantaci / inceptos / rookie / xan, rounded to 10). The simulator runs the real draft rules: round 0 every captain drafts themselves from the starting allowance, each later round adds a stipend, and whoever has the most money at the start of a round picks first. Prices are fixed at salary. Run one draft to see a full board, or a thousand to see who actually gets drafted, when, and by whom.

Stipends per round (cup schedule 715 / 625 / 710 — edit to override)

Pick a captain by ticking the C box in the table below; exclude a no-show with the in box. Captains draft themselves in round 0 at their own salary. A pick is only legal if the captain can still afford to fill their remaining slots from the cheapest players left (stipends included) — otherwise the sim marks a forced pick. Each sim deals every captain a drafting persona — planner (spends to an even per-slot plan, slightly rich in round 1), bargain (shops under plan, splurges with what's left at the end) or greedy (biggest affordable name — now a minority, not the default) — so nobody just takes best-available every round. Chaos controls how loosely captains follow their plan.

The sample drafts are three complete, internally consistent leagues (no player on two teams) from the first three simulated seeds — change the seed to deal new ones. The roster table instead looks across ALL sims per captain, so those rows can share players between captains; a low “seen in” % means that captain's draft is wide open. Team price sums fixed salaries; with everyone spending toward the same buffered cap the interesting spread is who you end up WITH, not what you pay. Forced-pick % = share of sims where that captain had no legal pick and was handed the cheapest player left. All numbers are deterministic for a given seed.
