The wait is over, and the landscape of MLS Fantasy has officially shifted. In the latest episode of the MLS Fantasy Insider podcast, hosts Reid Connelly and Tyler Norman kick off the 2026 season with a bombshell announcement that will change how every manager builds their squad this year.
The most significant update for 2026 is the move away from the legacy MLS Fantasy platform. We are thrilled to announce that Kickbase is the new official provider for the MLS Fantasy game! To help us navigate this transition, we’re joined by Favian Renkel, Head of Content for Kickbase USA, to break down the new interface, scoring tweaks, and what managers can expect from the new app.
Beyond the new platform, the core of the game remains the same: finding value and hunting for hauls. Reid and Tyler are joined by Ron Birnbaum (The MLS Fantasy Doc) to analyze the biggest off-season player movements. From high-profile signings to under-the-radar acquisitions, we discuss which roster changes will have the biggest fantasy impact, regardless of the platform.
