Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Team Lineup Basic at 74% against The IFC's 15%. Team Lineup Basic also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 16). The IFC's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
