- Pick changes: This year, we’ll be giving you the changes in base pick points, win probability, and percentage at each updates.
- Discussion Board: We’ve introduced a platform where you can engage with fellow participants, share strategies, or just chat about the latest games.
- Streamlined Money Pick Indicators: Instead of the previous green, yellow, and blue picks, we’ll now have bright green (higher risk) and dark green (medium risk). We’ve decided to retire the blue picks.
