WHY USE IT

Stop rebuilding the run from memory

A notes app can hold names. This board keeps names tied to the labels, grades, and mode you actually saw.

01

Keep every pick in one board

Record the player, selected trait, visible grade, and OVR after each pick.

02

See gaps before the run ends

The tracker calls out empty slots and the lowest visible grade without pretending to know the hidden formula.

03

Take the run with you

Runs stay in your browser. Export clean JSON when you want a backup or a shareable record.

OBSERVED BOARD

The 10 Guard slots rechecked on September 10

These labels were read from the live interface. Recheck the game if the interface you see differs from this observation.

A useful answer can still say “unknown”

Recommendations name their source, observation date, and limits. The analyzer uses transparent completeness and grade heuristics—not an invented official formula.

QUICK ANSWERS

Before you start

Is this the official Build-A-Bucket game?

No. This is an independent fan-made tracker and guide. The game itself is hosted by Build-A-Player.

Does the analyzer guarantee a 99 OVR build?

No. It summarizes the inputs you recorded. We have not verified the official rating formula, so unknowns stay labeled as unknown.

Do I need an account?

No. The MVP stores runs locally in your current browser and does not upload them.

NEXT PICK

Keep the run open. Keep the evidence straight.
