Fall Ball

From Blaseball Wiki

A screenshot of the Blaseball website during Fall Ball, taken prior to the December 2, 2022 Falls.

Fall Ball was the prologue to the Coronation Era of Blaseball. During Fall Ball, Players from previous Eras were "burped" from the Black Hole (Black Hole) onto random Teams. The first Fall occurred on October 28, 2022 and the event lasted until the Pre-Season concluded on December 30, 2022. The new Era began on January 9, 2023.

Overview

Fall Ball consisted of Players falling out of the Black Hole (Black Hole) onto random Teams, with one Player falling per Team every week. Players appear to be chosen from a pool that consists of Players from the Discipline Era and Expansion Era that were on the rosters of the main 24 Teams at the end of Season β24, including Shadows.

During Fall Ball, prizes were distributed to Fans as Attendance grew, with Attendance being marked by a counter on the main page. While a total of six prizes were available, only the goals for the first two were met. The Attendance counter corresponded to the number of Fans that entered their email address on the Blaseball website during Fall Ball.

Over the course of Fall Ball, the Blaseball website was updated and more information about Blaseball's return was revealed.

With the November 18, 2022 Fall, the Blaseball website was updated to feature a new FAQ and Team Scouting Reports, which recounted the general history of each Team alongside a list of their current Players. The new FAQ revealed the December 30, 2022 end to Fall Ball. Notably, the Scouting Reports refer to the Sunbeams by a new name, the Moab Hellmouth Sunbeams.

On December 1, 2022, the Blaseball website was updated to include The Blaseball Roundup: Recaps and Reveals, an animated new episode of The Blaseball Roundup meant to introduce new Fans to Blaseball before the new Era. The video description for the new Roundup reads

The Anchor is back, Alternated, and ready with the latest edition of The Blaseball Roundup!
New around here? Need a Blaseball explainer? You're in the right place! Catch up on everything you need to know to fall right into the new Era.

The December 1st update to the website also revealed that the next Era would begin January 9, 2023.

The position grid posted by the Blaseball Twitter account.

The December 9, 2022 Fall began with a series of 26 positions falling to a new part of the League known as The Field.

The description of The Field reads

SPACE MADE
POSITIONS CLAIMED
ORBIT ESTABLISHED

After the Falls, the official Blaseball Twitter account posted a grid of 36 positions. [1]

The December 16, 2022 Fall began with a series of 15 words falling to a new part of the League known as The Stars.

The description of The Stars reads

Volumetric units of congealed care
Measurements of potentiality

The description of The Stars, combined with the apparent return of the Player Attribute Thwack (previously known as Thwackability), seems to imply that the words that have fallen represent new Player Attributes.

The December 23, 2022 Fall began with a series of 24 Division assignments falling to a new part of the league known as The Divisions.

The description of The Divisions reads

DIVISIONS FRACTURE
LINES DRAWN
ONE LEAGUE, THE INTERNET LEAGUE
TWO CONFERENCES, GOOD AND EVIL
FOUR DIVISIONS, CHAOTIC AND AWFUL

With this, the teams were sorted into the Chaotic and Awful divisions of the Good and Evil Conferences.

A description-less part of the league, known as Mistakes, also appeared. To it fell spelling and name corrections corresponding to name errors in the Falls of divisional placements.
