Surprisingly tough in a good way

“The draft challenges are addictive, the interface is clean, and it’s surprisingly tough in a good way. It really makes you think about history, players, teams, and eras instead of just guessing.”

FAQ

Questions, answered

Is iKnoBall free?

Yes. iKnoBall is free to play on iPhone and in your browser, with no account needed to start. iKnoBall Pro is optional: $19.99/year or $2.99/month, with a 7-day free trial.

How are player ratings calculated?

Every rating comes from real career production — per-game output, efficiency and peak seasons — scaled so players from different eras can be compared on the same curve. The season sim only uses your five starters, so every pick matters.

What if my favorite player is missing?

Tell us. Player pools keep growing with updates, and suggestions from players go straight onto the list — email therealethanself@gmail.com with who is missing and for which team and era.

Which sports can I play?

Five: NBA, NFL, Premier League, NHL and MLB. Each sport has its own all-time player pool, Daily Challenge and leaderboards.

What is The Slate?

The Slate is a weekly NFL mode: you draft a fresh squad of current players each week and score real, live fantasy points against everyone else.

Can I play against my friends?

Yes. Challenge a friend head-to-head on the same draft, or start a private League and run a full season with your group chat.

How do I cancel iKnoBall Pro?

On iPhone, go to Settings › your name › Subscriptions › iKnoBall and turn off auto-renew. Web subscribers can cancel from Manage subscription in the app. You keep Pro until the end of the period you paid for.

“Everyone says they know ball. I built iKnoBall to make you prove it — no free picks, no easy mode, just you and what you actually know across all five sports.”
