How it works

Fantasy football, but you draft stocks. Five picks, one week, one winner.

The rules

Bull Blitz is a fantasy stock-picking game. Every week you build a five-slot roster from a universe of around 500 real S&P 500 stocks. Your roster locks at the Monday opening bell (9:30 AM ET). The game scores your picks using the real percentage return from Monday open to Friday close — no mock prices, no made-up numbers.

Your five slots
Blue Chip

Large-cap, S&P 500 index component. Lower ceiling, lower floor — your anchor pick.

Growth

Higher-growth company, not necessarily profitable yet. More volatile, more upside.

Your Pick

Total wildcard — any eligible stock in the catalog. Your thesis, your rules.

Mystery

Admin-curated board of 4 stocks. You pick one. Adds a weekly surprise element.

Twist

Weekly constraint set by the admin (e.g., "healthcare stocks only"). Changes every week.

Your score is the equal-weight average of all five slots' percentage returns. A slot you didn't fill scores 0%. A halted or delisted stock is IR'd and scores 0% for the week, so it neither helps nor hurts your average.

One team, plays everywhere: You build a single team each week. That same lineup is what plays in every league you're in and what counts on the Leaderboard — there's never a separate "solo team" and "league team" to juggle.

League play: In a league, you're matched against one opponent each week in a head-to-head matchup — higher weekly score wins, and wins decide your league standings and playoff seeding.

The Leaderboard ranks every player by their lifetime average weekly return — the average of your team's weekly % across every week you've played. No league required: build a team any week and it counts.

A standard season runs 6 weeks: 4 regular-season weeks of round-robin matchups, then a 2-week playoff (semis and final). Your league commissioner can set the season to Sprint (4 weeks) or Marathon (11 weeks) instead.

FAQ

Is this real money?

No. Bull Blitz is play-money only — your score is your stock-picking performance, not a wallet. You can never deposit or withdraw real money.

How am I ranked?

By your lifetime average weekly return — the average of your team’s weekly % across every week you play, solo or in a league. The Leaderboard ranks everyone by that single number.

What if my stock is halted or delisted mid-week?

That slot is IR'd: it scores 0% for the week, so it neither helps nor hurts your average.

Can I trade stocks between my roster slots during the week?

No. Once the Monday 9:30 AM ET opening bell rings, your roster is locked until Friday close. The swap window reopens Friday at 4 PM ET and closes again Monday at open.

What if I miss the Monday lock?

Any empty slots score 0% for the week. You're still in the league — just pick your roster before next Monday's open.

Can I pick the same stock two weeks in a row?

Not in the same slot type — stocks you used last week are blocked this week (Mystery slot excepted). This keeps the game from devolving into 'just pick NVIDIA every week.'

How does the Mystery slot work?

Each week the admin reveals 4 stocks for the Mystery slot. You pick one of those 4 — you can't free-pick for Mystery. It adds a curated twist to the game.

What is the Twist?

The Twist is a weekly constraint applied to one slot in your roster — e.g., 'must be a healthcare stock' or 'must have a market cap under $10B.' It changes every week and keeps strategy fresh.
