What Is a Fantasy Competition?
Last updated: November 10, 2026
A Fantasy Competition runs like a fantasy football league, with a regular season of weekly head-to-head matchups followed by a two-week playoff. It works best when employees are drafted into teams, so many organizations create a Group Type just for their Fantasy teams.
Regular Season
Each week, Ambition builds out every matchup and pairs together two opponents. Fantasy Competitions can have as few as one and as many as 40 regular season matchups, with every matchup starting on Mondays. The Season Standings rank competitors by wins and losses, then by points scored.
Playoffs and Best of the Rest
The four competitors with the best regular season records play a two-week playoff to determine who will come in first, second, and third places. All other participants compete in a two-week Best of the Rest contest, which needs at least six competitors in total.
