How to Play LMX

Here’s how it works, whether you’re following the Premier League, La Liga, MLS, or even your local setup:


🟢 1. Join or Create a League

You can join an existing league or start your own in seconds. Whether it’s a pub crew, an office pool, or a global leaderboard, LMX makes it easy to set up and get players in.


🔵 2. Pick One Team to Win

Each round, pick a team you think will win their match.
Not draw. Not “put up a good fight.” Win.

If they do — great, you're through.
If they don’t — you’re out.

And remember: once you’ve used a team, you can’t use them again. Use the giants early and risk being stuck with mid-table battlers down the line… or save your big guns and hope to survive the early rounds without them. Up to you.


🔴 3. Eliminated? You Might Have a Lifeline

Some leagues allow buy-backs — pay to re-enter in the early rounds. Others are straight knockout. It depends on how your league manager sets it up. Either way, tension builds week by week.


🟣 4. Be the Last One Standing

As rounds go by, the numbers thin out. The drama intensifies. And eventually, there’s only one player left with a perfect run of picks.

That’s your goal: outlast everyone. Stay sharp, stay lucky — and make the right call at the right time.
