Welcome to the 13th season of the unofficial Fantasy Football Scout Last Man Standing competition, which is built into the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game.

The aim of this competition is simple: you just have to keep your team above the elimination mark each week for 37 Gameweeks.

The winner receives a free Fantasy Football Scout Chief Scout membership for the 2026/27 season.

HOW TO ENTER

Simply enter the code ’skotto’ in your leagues’ section on the FPL site.

After that, avoid being on the last few pages or so of the league to stay alive.

Known-banned Fantasy Football Scout posters will be removed.

Please only enter one team to be fair to others.

January 17th (before Gameweek 22) will be the closing time for entries.

Entry will be open until Monday 7pm before the last game of Gameweek 1 and then opened again at selected times during the season to keep numbers down, as admin for the competition is even more time-consuming than it was previously.

Make sure to enter by Monday night, as it will be more difficult to enter afterwards.

For those entering after Gameweek 1, you must pass all the previous safety scores to qualify.

Safety scores can be found here.

The LMS Leaderboard can be found here.

HOW IT WORKS

The bottom “x%” of teams or equal after hits get eliminated each Gameweek (GW).

The weekly value of “x” is shown below.

  • Gameweeks 1-4 = Bottom 5% or equal for the GW
  • Gameweeks 5-8 = Bottom 6% or equal for the GW
  • Gameweeks 9-12 = Bottom 7% or equal for the GW
  • Gameweeks 13-16 = Bottom 8% or equal for the GW
  • Gameweeks 17-20 = Bottom 9% or equal for the GW
  • Gameweeks 21-25 = Bottom 10% or equal for the GW
  • Gameweeks 26-30 = Bottom (12,14,16,18,20)% respectively.
  • Gameweeks 31-34 = Bottom (25,30,36,42)% respectively.
  • Gameweek 35 = Bottom 50% or equal.
  • Gameweek 36 = Top 3 or equal or at least one elimination (overall rank is the tie-break decider).
  • Gameweek 37 = Top 3 or equal from GW36 make the final with the winner taking the title (overall rank is the tie-break decider).

      do we have to remove ourselves or will we automatically be removed when eliminated?

        It's done manually by the league's host, but toward the end of the season when the LMS 'Cup' starts then remaining teams can no longer be removed - i.e. they may no longer be in the running to win LMS but can still win the knockout cup.
