### 2/5 — UI

*2026-05-10, version 4.7.0*

This UI is not intuitive at all

### 2/5 — Can’t see opponent roster/stats

*2026-03-08*

Not being able to see your opponents lineups, roster, points or anything along those lines is awful. What makes it worse is you’d charge us to see it. 

Overall the app is great and works well. Blocking the fantasy basics like matchup stats is unbelievable and unfortunate. I’d genuinely give it a 5 star if you don’t charge us for something that should be mandatory for fantasy.

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for taking the time to share this, really appreciate the honest feedback. Totally hear you, being able to see your opponent’s lineup and stats is a core part of the fantasy experience, and we get why this feels frustrating.

We’re always looking at what makes the most sense to be free vs part of pro / member subscriber, and feedback like yours definitely plays a big role in that. Really glad to hear you’re enjoying the app overall 🙌

### 1/5 — Basic features behind paywall

*2026-02-24*

I like the idea of this app, and I’m currently using the free trial, however already frustrated by how difficult it is to tell basic things about the players through the search function (you can’t search by team, for instance, and though they say photos are available many times they are not. And it’s confusing that you may be searching for a player and not see them, only to realize you’re not looking in the right category. Also, it’s really NOT intuitive telling which players are injured or not). There are very limited options for rulesets when you start your own league (you can only do the “Arena” mode and essentially can only set a salary cap). And how much stuff even with the free trial is behind a paywall. And once the free trial goes away I’m sure the features will be even less. I hope that MLS can work with Kickbase to improve the feature set that you get in the free tier. Let’s get as many people playing MLS Fantasy as possible!

### 1/5 — Do not waste your time.

*2026-02-24, version 4.5.1*

Worst fantasy app out there. Complete waste of time setting a league up. Honestly this has to be a scam if you see how poorly this app is set up.

### 2/5 — Seems okay until you have to pay

*2026-02-23*

Nice at first seems like a good fantasy app until you learn that you have to pay for just basic features. Like what do you mean I can’t check other teams in my league unless I pay $60 a year or more. There’s a lot more examples too trying to make you pay for things that used to be free is ridiculous. Probably gonna delete and not even play fantasy this year

### 1/5 — Unsure

*2026-02-22*

I’ve been active on MLS Fantasy for a little over 5 years roughly. I’ve also had the chance to win the weekly challenge do it the prize of at that time $150. Anyways I wanted to give this new app a try but unfortunately it was to big of a change of what we were use to. I love fantasy leagues but will be so sitting out this year. Good luck to everyone

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for giving us a try and for sharing your story. Five years of MLS Fantasy and a weekly win is seriously impressive.
We totally understand that switching formats can feel like a big change. If you’re curious, maybe check out our Season Challenge. It runs all season and you can win prizes there too.
We’d really love for you to stay part of the Kickbase community, and we’re always here if you want to give it another shot. For any questions, please reach out to support-us@kickbase.com.

### 1/5 — Application is not accessible for users who are visually impaired and use Apple voice note

*2026-02-21*

It is disappointing to receive an email from MLS informing me about this new official fantasy application, but only discovered that it is not playable if you are visually impaired and use Apple voice note.  After poking around, and then returning to the App Store, I see the developer did not bother to indicate whether the game is accessible or not, which kind of tells me That if they didn’t bother to say anything, it’s probably not. if I’m wrong, please let me know, but otherwise – – Kick base and MLS lost a potential customer…

**Developer response:** Thank you for pointing this out. We’re really sorry to hear about your experience.
We’ve noted your feedback regarding accessibility and VoiceOver and have shared it with our team internally. Improving accessibility is important to us, and input like yours helps us get better.

### 1/5 — Disappointed in MLS

*2026-02-18, version 4.5.1*

So different from what has been around. $60 to see pictures of players?  All that says is MLS is CHEAP. Pennywise and pound foolish.

### 1/5 — Too expensive, too complicated

*2026-02-17*

Sure, you can play for free. But so many features are locked behind the paywall. There’s no MLS-wide league, or league for fans of a team. The three budget modes are confusing. And some basic functions don’t always work (eg the slider to confirm certain choices). Not so fun.

**Developer response:** Hi Oliver, thanks for taking the time to share this. We really appreciate the honest feedback.
You’re right that some features are part of our paid tiers, while the core game stays free. 
You can try Pro features free for the first two months and explore everything without commitment. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out anytime at support-us@kickbase.com.

We’ve shared your feedback with the team. Also, please make sure you’re always on the latest app version, as we fix bugs and release improvements as quickly as possible. Your input truly helps us improve ⚽

### 1/5 — It sucks

When you make a lege you have to stick with the role but why wold you want a 6 man team and WHY IS MEISSY 65 MILLON AND SON 55 MILL$$$$ but when you make a team you can’t go back

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No skill or strategy required

*2026-07-14*

Was excited to try out a new fantasy game for MLS, but this has been terribly disappointing. The game has a massively complicated scoring system with seemingly meaningless point totals, yet none of that matters. Unlike other fantasy games that require some skill, tactics, and data tracking to maximize margins, this one simply requires you to get the best scoring players you can each week if you want to finish around the top 10% each week. 

If you love spending fewer than 5 minutes building a team each week with little thought or strategy and still be able to perform consistently well, then this game is for you. But if you like a game that requires tactics, strategy to your picks, a scoring system that makes sense, and a logo that doesn’t look like 3 Edna Modes in a circle, I’d look elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Let Down

*2026-04-25*

App is just bad. Hard to maneuver through it, glitches, and it’s difficult to change your teams around. Annoying enough that a made it 4 weeks and decided to delete it.

**Developer response:** Hey, sorry to hear that – that's definitely not the experience we want for you! 😔 If you ever give us another shot, we'd love to help you get started. Feel free to reach out at help@kickbase.com with your Kickbase ID and we'll make sure things run smoothly. 🙏

### 1/5 — Worst fantasy game ever

*2026-04-20, version 4.6.2*

I played MLS Fantasy for years. From this year Kickbase took over that. This app is full of nonsense. Normally in a football fantasy game your budget is changing depending on your decisions, how good or bad were your picks. In this game your money stays the some, nothing changing, so literally one of the most important aspects of the game is not there. And also in one week I forgot to setup my team, and after last week I was on -0.9m budget with the exact same group of people (which couldn’t happen in a normal fantasy game) and recieved 0 point for the next round, because the game didn’t accept my team because they’re in deficit. I’m planning to delete the app from my phone and never use it again. We have a huge Hungarian fanbase of MLS who are having our own league and planning to delete it and move our league to another platform that is actually good, because everybody had enough of these bugs.

### 1/5 — Hellooooo?????

*2026-04-04*

somehow the app is not registering 3 members of my squad at the start of game day despite having a full squad assigned merely minutes prior to the lockout. not the first time i’ve experienced this issue. once again, a TERRIBLE app.

**Developer response:** Hey, that's really frustrating  😔. If you're still experiencing issues, we'd love to help – just reach out at help@kickbase.com with your Kickbase ID. And if things are running smoothly now, we'd really appreciate an updated review! 🙏

### 1/5 — Terrible app for fantasy

*2026-03-26*

This app has so many issues. Like most others it seems to be such a great app for fantasy at the start. But once you actually start to use it the app shows you what it’s really about. The MLS has done a partnership with a company that is strictly trying to make money and not a solid product for fans to enjoy. The app is something like 6$ month for basic fantasy features like seeing your opponents lineups in your league. Completely outrageous and shouldn’t be a thing. They have so many other options to put behind a paywall but this is a basic feature which shouldn’t be behind it. Also the point system doesn’t quite make sense. Just stick to the basic win or loss with points. Also having a deduction if you don’t have a starting player is stupid. And when a player doesn’t play you get disqualified for the whole week. The overall design of the app is probably the only beneficial thing. It’s well design besides some features like the captain system and others mentioned it’s good. But if you want to play fantasy with your friends this is not the app for now. My friends have all deleted the app and will probably not play MLS fantasy again because of this. Good job MLS for screwing over your fans once again.

### 1/5 — No rolling lockout and expensive

*2026-03-21*

It’s absolutely idiotic for them to not have a rolling lockout for players.  MLS lineups are too unpredictable for this.  You need to pick players for all of the weekends games by noon on Saturday and almost everyone ends up with a few players getting zero points because they get scratched from the lineup last minute.  It forces you to spend forever trying to figure out who’s going to play instead of just picking the best players.  Also you need to pay $60 to get basic features that are included for free on every other fantasy sports platform.  I’m disappointed MLS ever partnered with them.

**Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to share this, seriously appreciate the honesty. We totally get where you’re coming from, MLS lineups can be unpredictable and not having rolling lockouts can make that frustrating.

Our current setup is meant to keep the whole matchday strategic, but we hear you that last-minute scratches can feel rough. That’s something we’re always looking at and discussing internally.

Appreciate your feedback.

### 1/5 — if it ain’t broke…

*2026-03-15*

locked out of making substitutions at the beginning of the matchday. for what reason does my team need to be locked in at 1pm EST the first game of the matchday? horribly designed fantasy managerial app. why on earth would MLS make this downgrade to an app that hasn’t been properly assessed for user experience & satisfaction? revert back to the original formatting & digest from whatever this joke is.

### 1/5 — Have to pay to even play fairly

*2026-03-07*

We can’t look at other players teams in the league or look at player stats unless you pay $60 a year. MLS fantasy was better as it was user friendly and free to play. Player stats were available and moving to this app was just a downgrade. I am really disappointed this season.

### 1/5 — Awful experience

*2026-03-07, version 4.6.0*

Genuinely awful fantasy game

### 1/5 — Disgrace to Fantasy

*2026-03-07*

MLS Fantasy has been ok for the last 10 years or so. Never great, never terrible. Some years better than others. I have done MLS fantasy every year for YEARS. Kickbase has made me drop it completely. What do you mean I can’t even see my opponents team without paying for a subscription? Why is it so difficult for me to select which player I want to captain? Why can’t I make changes to my team after the FIRST game of the week starts? I don’t know a single other fantasy system in any sport that works that way, if a team sheet comes out and a player on my team isn’t in the starting 18 I should be able to switch it. This is actually one of the most ridiculous cash grabs I’ve ever seen and it’s a complete disgrace that MLS switched systems. I hope everyone stops playing until things are changed.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-05-02, version 4.6.2*

This app is really good but it would be better if i won the games

### 5/5 — Love the app

*2026-04-27*

I love the app and love the system it has with many different types of leagues and challenges, but the thing that would make this app the best is if you had the EPL ( premier league)

**Developer response:** Thanks so much, really glad you're enjoying it! 🙌

### 5/5 — Legendary!!!

*2026-04-21*

I love this game! It isn’t just for the hardcore fantasy ppl but also for the casuals that love the game!!! I have learned so much about the game by picking players and seeing how they do.

**Developer response:** Hey, that's awesome to hear – welcome to the Kickbase community! 🙌 Thanks for the kind words

### 5/5 — Love Kickbase!

*2026-04-21*

Was never really into fantasy but this got me hooked, loved the head to head mode, and found all the controls super easy to use. My and my friends are having a blast using this app.

**Developer response:** Hey, that's what we love to hear – welcome to the Kickbase community. Thanks for the kind words and have a blast with your crew! 😊🔥

### 5/5 — MLS Fantasy is finally here!

*2026-04-21*

Always wanted an MLS Fantasy App and my prayers have been answered! This is the future! If MLS Fantasy grows then the league grows.

**Developer response:** So happy to hear that! Welcome to Kickbase — glad, you are part of the community.

### 5/5 — Best MLS Fantasy App Ever

*2026-04-21*

Literally always talked about MLS needing to make a Fantasy App for the future and this is exactly it. Kickbase is not only providing a great game, they are actually adding to the MLS community with all their content.

### 5/5 — Werbung-Bug

*2026-03-12, version 4.6.0*

Küsse eure Herzen und könnte auch die 5€ mal zahlen, aber wenn ich extra 30sek Werbung gucke um die livepunkte zu sehen, dann zeigt sie auch bitte und zeigt sie bitte erst nicht nachdem ich sie 4 mal neu gucken musste. Ansonsten wisst ihr selber, dass ihr da ne geile App habt. LG

### 5/5 — Mitteilung

*2026-03-07*

Ich nutze die Kickbase App sehr gerne, aber aktuell gibt es ein nerviges Problem mit der Punkteanzeige. Die Punkte werden nach Aktionen oft nicht direkt oder korrekt angezeigt. Erst wenn man nach links auf den Transfermarkt swiped und danach wieder zurückgeht, erscheinen die Punkte plötzlich richtig.

Das sollte eigentlich automatisch und in Echtzeit funktionieren, ohne dass man erst zwischen den Seiten wechseln muss. Gerade während der Spiele ist es ziemlich störend, weil man ständig nachschauen möchte, wie viele Punkte ein Spieler gerade gemacht hat.

Bitte behebt diesen Fehler in einem der nächsten Updates, damit die Punkte wieder zuverlässig und direkt angezeigt werden.

**Developer response:** Danke für deine top Bewertung.
