Wow, we have a lot of turnout for this one. Thanks to everyone participating. 12 teams all competing for the coveted spot of winning it all (sorry, no prize for the winner). Very interesting to see how some teams build their rosters, which players made the cut, which ones did not, etc. 50 players appeared on rosters more than one time. GitRekt and What Smells have the second least amount of unique players, with both only carrying two guys a piece that appear on only their rosters. The ultimate winner for least amount of unique players is Tyrannosaurus Rexes with Whisenant on the lonely island (some love as the cover boy). Island of Misfit Bats was a lineup made exclusively on players not a part of any other rosters.

Here is the quick rundown of the challenge: you must construct the best 20 man roster using only common cards (no foils and no misprints – sorry no 10 ob Andruw Jones).
