About this pyramid
The narrow top makes a pyramid good for settling the debate over number one, while the wide base still has room for the rest.
Try filling the bottom first and working up, so the last choices you make are the toughest ones.
The greatest midfielders in MLS history, by their honors.
Every pick and every finished ranking here counts toward the top all-time MLS midfielders for November 2026.
How to use it
- Start with your number one and place it at the top.
- Fill each level below; a full level won't take another until you move one out.
- Move a tile between levels by dragging it.
- If someone is missing, use + Add or the search box under the board to bring them in.
- When you're done, download the picture or copy a link that opens your board as you left it.
