Frequently Asked Questions
How does skill balancing work?
Players are sorted by skill rating and distributed in a snake draft pattern (1-2-3-3-2-1...) to ensure each team has a similar total skill level.
How are captains assigned?
The player with the highest skill rating on each team is automatically assigned as captain. If no ratings are given, a random player is chosen.
What if I don't add skill ratings?
Without skill ratings, players are distributed completely randomly across teams with equal sizes.
Is this tool free?
Yes, completely free with no limits.
Can I use this for classroom groups?
Absolutely! It's perfect for splitting students into project groups, debate teams, or activity groups.
