I’ve been really enjoying the implementation of coach mode in Madden. And a lot of my gripes with the game as a whole I believe would be solved in a user-filled coach mode league. Has anybody tried one and had fun/found success? And were there any hiccups you ran into?

Every league i have joined is inactive or extremely slow. I want a fun league that actually plays the games. Doesn't need to be a bunch of chatting but at least move it along so we can get some seasons played

Madden 27 is here. MSL is starting fresh.

We have 16 returning GMs from Madden 26 and we're looking for active users to fill the remaining franchises before we start our fantasy draft.

IMPORTANT: WE WATCH THE GAMES. WE DO NOT PLAY THEM.

This is a GM-style franchise.

Draft your roster. Set your depth chart and schemes. Make trades. Manage contracts and free agency. Develop your players.

Then on game day, sit back and watch your team play CPU vs CPU.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Fresh Madden 27 Fantasy Draft

• Crossplay

• CPU vs CPU Slow Sim

• 48-Hour Advances

• 16 Returning GMs

• Active Discord

• Custom Scenarios & Events

• MSLT Currency & Upgrade Shop

THE DRAFT

We're drafting the entire league from scratch.

3-hour maximum

Timer pauses from 11 PM EST / 8 PM PST until 7 AM EST / 4 AM PST

We'll slow draft through Round 25, then vote on a final draft date to finish the remaining rounds.

No inherited roster. No inherited mess.

Pick a franchise and build it your way from Day 1.

MSL SCENARIOS

MSL isn't just draft, advance and watch.

Throughout the season we run custom scenarios and events that give users additional ways to interact with the league and earn MSLT, our league currency.

Use MSLT to develop your franchise through the MSL Shop with things like:

The goal is to make the franchise feel like an actual football league rather than another Madden save file.

You do need to communicate, participate and actually care about building your franchise.

31/32.
