SQUAD DEAL

Build a full XI out of mystery boxes. Pick cases, dodge the Banker, assemble glory.

Squad Deal: Blind Box Soccer Squad Builder

A mystery box twist on building your dream team. Each position gives you 10 mystery cases of players tiered from elite to weak. Keep one, eliminate the rest, and weigh the Banker's player offers.

Squad Deal crosses building an XI with a blind box gamble. Every position is a wall of mystery boxes, you claim one blind, and a banker keeps ringing with tempting named alternatives.

You never quite know what you are holding until it is too late, which is the point. The finished squad gets simulated, graded, and logged on a leaderboard saved to your device.

How to play Squad Deal, a free online soccer box opening game

Setting up your theme, formation and modes

Set up: Current Stars or All-Time Legends, an optional theme like Premier League only, one of 9 formations, and whether meme players can lurk in the boxes.

Picking a hidden box for each position

Tap a position, face up to 10 hidden players, and keep one box sight unseen.

Opening rounds and the banker's offers

Open the rest in short rounds. Between rounds the banker offers a named player: accept to fill the slot or keep opening.

Finishing slots and simulating for a grade

Refuse everything and you finish the slot from the last unopened boxes.

After the XI, play the 5 extras, then simulate for your grade.

Squad Deal rules: box odds, chemistry and the letter grades

How boxes are seeded top to bottom

Boxes are seeded stars to scrubs: on a full board of 10, a couple come from the top of the pool and a couple from the bottom.

How the banker sweetens later rounds

Offers strengthen in later rounds, roughly 1 in 4 is a sweetener near the best player left, and the banker never repeats an offer.

Final rating and the letter grades

Final rating: players 82 percent, chemistry 18 percent, plus extras. Chemistry counts shared clubs and nationalities.

The grade cutoffs from A+ to D

Grades: 84 and up is A+, 76 is A, 66 is B, 55 is C, below that D.

Squad Deal walkthrough: a Traffic Cone and a Premier League B

Declining the banker's mid 80s offer at striker

At striker you keep box 4. Two scrubs and a star flip out, the banker offers a solid mid 80s name, and you decline. Next round burns another elite option, and his follow up is weaker, because the field left in play got worse.

The Traffic Cone lands but chemistry saves the grade

You ride it to the end and out comes The Traffic Cone. Your all Premier League chemistry still drags the sim to a B, logged with formation and date.

Squad Deal tips for reading the banker's offers

Judging the banker against what remains

Judge the banker against what is left, not what is gone. His offer tracks the unopened average.

Taking early offers at thin positions

Take early offers at thin positions like goalkeeper. Deep positions can afford greed.

Legends mode safety and Meme mode chaos

In Legends mode every box holds an all time great, so gambling to the last box is far safer.

Meme mode is chaos on purpose: a few joke players are secretly elite, most are Sunday league.

Squad Deal FAQ: grading, extras and your leaderboard

How does grading work?

The sim averages your XI's ratings, blends chemistry, applies extras, and the letter falls out of the number: A+ needs 84, under 55 is a D.

What are the extras?

Five mini deal boards: Manager, Stadium, Fan Base, Transfer Budget, and Home Kit, each with 6 options carrying rating and chemistry modifiers. Keep a case, watch 3 flip, then deal, stay, or swap.

Where does my score go?

A leaderboard on your device logs each run's grade, rating, formation, and era. No account needed.

Is Squad Deal free to play?

Yes. Squad Deal is free to play on DoUKnowBall, right in your browser. No download and no signup needed.
