ANNOUNCING BLASEBALL

Today we’re announcing a little something we’ve been cooking up in quarantine — Blaseball.

Blaseball is an absurdist, player-driven, corruptible, online baseball league. It’s a simplistic simulation of a sport, built in the void of real sports, where players can view, bet on, and contort the league.

The key difference between Blaseball and baseball is player participation. Gambling is allowed and encouraged. Players will earn and lose a virtual Blaseball currency by placing bets on the games, and they’ll cash in their earnings to make changes to the league. The teams, the players on the team, the rosters, and even the rules of the game can be changed by the community.

Blaseball is almost baseball. There’s a single league of fake teams, with fake players, and fake schedules. Seasons of Blaseball are simulated over the course of several days. Teams will win and lose, storylines will emerge, and Blaseball history will be made. Blaseball is completely browser-based and available to play in beta today at https://blaseball.com.
