Steem Fantasy Premier League

We've just passed the halfway point of the season and the Steem Fantasy Premier League's prizepool just keeps on growing faster and faster. The current prizepool is a staggering ~2200 STEEM, which is equivalent to ~$13900 at the time of writing this post. If the league ended right now this would mean that the top three players would be taking away the following amount of money

#% of prizeoolSTEEM$
130%660 STEEM$4170
215%330 STEEM$2085
310%220 STEEM$1390

This is crazy! Especially since this will be even more by the end of the season. Anyway, I thought it would be cool to compare this to the prizes the top three players of the official Fantasy Premier League will receive.

Official Fantasy Premier League

Since the prizes for the top three positions in the official Fantasy Premier League aren't monetary it can't be compared that easily. I'm going to estimate the value of these prizes, so I could be wrong, but it should still give a good comparison!

1st

PrizeEstimated Value
VIP hospitality at two Premier League 2018/19 matches including travel and 2 nights' accommodation$1900
A week's worth of experiences in the UK courtesy of Visit Britain, including travel and 7 nights' accommodation$2000
TAG Heuer connected watch$2000
Copy of FIFA and a games console$310
Nike manager jacket$120
FPL goody bag consisting of a rucksack, t-shirt, mug, water bottle, stress ball, pen, pad and key ring$30
Total$6360

2nd

PrizeEstimated Value
VIP hospitality at two Premier League 2018/19 matches including travel and 2 nights' accommodation$1900
Copy of FIFA and a games console$310
Tablet computer$200
Bluetooth speaker$25
Nike manager jacket$120
FPL goody bag consisting of a rucksack, t-shirt, mug, water bottle, stress ball, pen, pad and key ring$30
Total$2585

3rd

PrizeEstimated Value
Copy of FIFA and a games console$310
Tablet computer$200
Bluetooth speaker$25
Nike manager jacket$120
FPL goody bag consisting of a rucksack, t-shirt, mug, water bottle, stress ball, pen, pad and key ring$30
Total$685

Conclusion

Comparing the two shows that getting 3rd place in the Steem league is already worth more than double than getting 3rd place in the official league! 2nd place is also pretty close, with the official league only being worth $500 more. The biggest difference in value is between the 1st place of both leagues, which is currently $2190. Even though 1st and 2nd place are currently worth more in the official league, this probably won't be the case by the end of the season, which is amazing! We have to consider that placing high in the Steem Fantasy Premier League is much, much easier than placing high in the official league, and the fact that this is the first season of the Steem league! The future looks bright!

What a Prize!!!
Love!!

I'm in top five this week. Come on!
All thing can be happen,
The Sfpl games make me watching all premier league gw .. x) lol

You're doing great at the moment! :)

Wow, that's awesome. The prizepool is growing more and more, the fight for the first places every time is more exciting. Hopefully our prize will be much higher than the Official Fantasy Premier League

Oh..It will. No doubt.

Wait, what happens with the remaining 45% of the prize pool?

They will be given to support the whale wars on steemit. No, they are just not mentioned in the post. They are spread out, like this:

place 1 30%
place 2 15%
place 3 10%
place 4- 10 3%
top 24 1%
top 48 0.5 %

Didn't know there was one. I'll have to keep my eye out next year to join.

The prize is very good, but unfortunately, my position in Steemit Fantasy Premier League is still rated below, I lost a lot of points, thank you

There's still a lot of time left to climb the table, so don't give up! Even getting into the top 48 nets you a nice prize!

Yes friends, I do not give up, hopefully the future will be able to many points. thanks for your support!

The awards are wonderful :)

I haven't checked on my team for so long i just realized they are way at the bottom lol. RIP.

May you rest in peace. Come back stronger next year.

No words!!!.... The difference is clear!
