The eight teams from the Challengers Stage will be added to the draft as they qualify.

With the Challengers Stage of PGL Major Stockholm currently underway, Fantasy for the Legends Stage has gone live, offering an early opportunity to draft players from teams like Natus Vincere and Ninjas in Pyjamas ahead of the start of the stage on October 30.

The Fantasy game for the Legends Stage is the second in a series of three that HLTV.org will run for the event, which will culminate with the Champions Stage from November 4 to 7 that will feature its own draft.

For now, 40 players are available to be picked, and Challenger teams will be added to the Fantasy game as they secure qualification over the next three days.

Unsurprisingly, Oleksandr "⁠s1mple⁠" Kostyliev and Nicolai "⁠device⁠" Reedtz are currently the two most-picked players among the field, offering unrivaled consistency in their output as part of the two teams that are favorites to advance to the playoffs, as well as the most likely grand final candidates.

Keep in mind that the addition of players from the Challengers Stage will offer some value picks for drafts as well, but time will be limited to finalize a roster after all sixteen teams are determined. Additionally, one thing to consider is that players selected need not necessarily be ones that will top the tournament, since a third Fantasy game will be underway for the final stage.

To get a gauge for the price point of some of the players and how the Legends stage is shaping up for drafts, you can head on over to the HLTV x BitSkins league page, where the following prizes are available to the top three:

1. Huntsman Knife | Crimson Web (Field-Tested)
2. Gut Knife | Crimson Web (Field-Tested)
3. Navaja Knife | Crimson Web (Field-Tested)

Anyone who finishes in the top 70% will also be eligible to gain points on the Fall Fantasy for the HLTV x Bitskins leaderboard, with the season's winner being awarded the top prize of $10,000 at the end of December.
