How to Play Handicap Hero

Step 1

Pick from the slate

Choose from the available handicap / spread and total markets.

Step 2

Rank by confidence

#1 is your most confident pick, down to your weakest read.

Step 3

First miss ends your run

If your first miss is at rank 5, you survived 4 legs.

Step 4

Climb the Leaderboards

Every result counts. Earn your place on verified worldwide leaderboards.

No moneylines

Straight-up winner picks are not part of the card builder.

No draw picks

Soccer cards use handicap and total markets — never the draw.

Soccer markets

Soccer uses Handicap and Total Goals, graded on 90-minute regulation.

MLB markets

MLB uses spreads and totals (over / under).

Same-game flexibility

You may choose one side and one total from the same game, but not both sides of the same market.

No conflicting picks

You cannot take both sides of the same market on one game or match.

Survival is the score

Correct picks before your first miss count. Your score is how many legs you survived.

Later picks do not matter

Once you miss, the run is over — picks ranked after the miss never count, even if they would have won.

Pushes and voids

A push or voided game does not end your run; it is skipped and the card continues to your next pick.

Official results

Final results are determined by Handicap Hero using regulation-time scores unless a contest states otherwise.
