Managers, gear up and get ready! Starting with Game Week 16, we’re launching a new set of competitions in Sorare: MLB that offer more ways to play, and more ways to win. Introducing Special Weeklies and the Monthly Chase.
In Monthly Chase Competitions, Managers will battle for the top spot over four Game Weeks each month. Special Weeklies introduce new lineup-building challenges that will test even the most seasoned Managers.
Let’s dive into the specifics!
The Monthly Chase: Make a Name for Yourself
For the final four Game Weeks of each month, we will run a Monthly Chase competition.
Managers will set lineups for each of the four Game Weeks, with the top three scores counting towards a final cumulative score. Cash Rewards, Reward Boxes, and some exciting VIP Experiences will be up for grabs (more on that below)
Monthly Chases will run separately at the Limited, Rare, Super Rare, & Unique scarcities. Cash Rewards, Reward Boxes, and some exciting VIP Experiences will be up for grabs. Individual Game Weeks will not be rewarded in the Monthly Chase competition – it’s all about bringing the best lineup for multiple Game Weeks.
Special Weeklies: Strategy Never Rests
While the Monthly Chase rewards long term performance, Special Weeklies inject some excitement each Game Week when the Monthly Chase is not running. These competitions feature unique eligibility criteria and present managers with different lineup building challenges each week.
For select Special Weeklies each month, we’ll turn it over to YOU, the community, to vote on which competition you want us to run. What kind of new formats do you want to see? Let us know on our socials!
Special Weeklies will run separately for Limited, Rare, Super Rare & Unique. Cash Rewards, Reward Boxes, and some awesome official merchandise will be up for grabs.
Schedule
Here is how things will work through July (Game Week 36):
- Special Weeklies will run for the first four Game Weeks of each month, with two different Special Weeklies each taking up two Game Weeks.
- Monthly Chases take over for the final four Game Weeks of the month, offering a chance at glory and bigger rewards
We’ll kick things off with the May Monthly Chase, starting Game Week 17.
Keep an eye out for what our first round of Special Weeklies will be in June, as well as how you can get involved to decide which ones we run as the season progresses!
Eligibility Requirements
The May Chase, June Chase, and Special Weeklies that we run through the MLB All Star break (GW32; July 15) will have the same In-Season card requirements that Champion competitions had in GW1. Beginning with the July Chase in GW33 and continuing through the remainder of the regular season, those requirements will adjust to mirror the current Champion requirements.
*Note that in some special cases, these requirements may be relaxed ad hoc for individual Special Weeklies that may require a smaller player pool.

We’re rewarding Cash Rewards in addition to our current outlay for existing Champion Competitions.
Special Weekly Competitions reward $4,500 in total cash rewards per Game Week
The May & June Chase will each reward $20,000 in total Cash Rewards
Buckle up: the July Chase will offer $100,000 in total Cash Rewards. It’ll be the dog days of summer, and we’ll definitely be bringing the heat on Sorare: MLB. Gear up for an exciting 4 Game Weeks – we’ll share more details as this competition draws closer.
