  How to Play
Play the Krakow 2017 Team Pick'Em Challenge
Make predictions and earn points toward a Krakow 2017 Team Pick'Em Trophy! Use Team Stickers to make your predictions: Make your first set of predictions before the group stage begins. Make your second set of predictions after the group stage is over and before the playoffs begin.
Group Stage
Pick one of the two undefeated teams (Group Stage record 3-0), pick the seven others who advance, and pick one of the two teams that will be eliminated without winning any matches (Group Stage record 0-3). Correct picks are worth 3 points each. Group picks lock when the group stage begins, so be sure to make your picks before then!
Playoffs
Build your bracket and predict the Quarterfinal, Semifinal, and Grand Final winners.

Earn 12 points for each correct Quarterfinal pick, 10 points for each correct Semifinal pick, and 7 points for picking the Grand Final winner. You can start building your bracket as soon as the group stage is over, and you'll have a full day to make adjustments. Once playoffs start, brackets are locked, so make sure your bracket is ready!
Go for the Gold
The Pick’Em Challenge trophy is a badge that can be displayed next to your avatar in game. Correct picks in the Pick'Em Challenge game award points and a bronze badge that can be leveled up to silver or gold. To make a pick, you must own an unused sticker for the team you choose. A single team sticker is sufficient for picking that team in the Group Stage and the Playoffs.

Making a pick in the Group Stage will lock the sticker and it will not be usable or tradable until the Group Stage games are completed. Similarly, making a pick during the Playoff Stage will lock the sticker until the tournament is complete. Undoing a pick will not unlock the sticker—it will remain unusable and untradeable. After the tournament, trophies will be awarded.
Global and Friends Leaderboards
In addition to winning a trophy for playing the Pick'Em game, you can compete with your friends on the Friends Leaderboard. Each stage of the event provides an opportunity to score points.
