Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Back My Bracket at 5.0 against CollectDeck's 4.3. Back My Bracket also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). CollectDeck's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
