It’s hard to believe that the fantasy playoffs are here. Only the best of the best can advance in the world of high-stakes football. Our FFWC High-Stakes Recap: Week 14 looks back on those elite teams and how they got here.
These are the most prestigious and competitive leagues in the world. But, there can only be one winner. The FFWC high-stakes recap: Week 14 breaks down the field.
FFWC World Championship
The 2022 Fantasy Football World Championship regular season is now complete. Congratulations to the 18 teams that earned a $10,000 Dominator prize by finishing with the Best Record (no ties) plus the Most Points in their league.
That includes Amy/Mark Palmer, Mike Santos/Kurt Kuekes, Gary Allen, plus Justin Herron, who all banked two Dominator prizes.
Due to the Dominator victories being secured, those 18 leagues will not have a playoff round. In the other 26 FFWC X leagues, the top two teams, Best Record (most points tiebreaker) and Most Points, will square off for the league championship. Each of the league winners will collect $4,000 cash and the runner-up banks a $1,000 prize.
With the dust settled, 179 of our 528 FFWC X teams have advanced to the overall championship round. The list includes 92 different players that have at least one team in the race for the $150,000 top prize. There are also six former Champions on the list – including our 2021 defending champ Abe Prowse.
Chad Schroeder (Cocktails & Dreams) leads the way with ten playoff teams. Oliver Dawoud (Miss New Booty) is right behind Chad with nine squads. Chad and Oliver both have two teams on the Top 30 list. There are also 60 different players that have one team on the top 179 leaderboards.
Our FFWC Shout Out of the week goes to Evangelos Lisa who enters the Championship round with FOUR teams on the Top 30 Leaderboard. Very impressive!
The overall FFWC X Championship race runs from Week 15 through 17, and the 179 teams enter playoffs with their 14-week average points. That makes for a wild shootout as just 33.50 points separate the current leader and the 179th-place qualifying team.

There’s a ton of cash on the line and the playoffs run from Week 15 through Week 17.
The overall race is very close as John D’Izzia (Team D) enters the championship round with a minuscule 0.67-point lead over Michael Schlissberg (Mr. Yellow Stickers).
