It's free, but you can only join one league per day.
You get 5 "free" credits, which is what it takes to join a league. Each day, you're balance is reset to 5 credits, so you can join another league each day.
Personally, I prefer joining a league at the time of creation (when there is an allocation draft). I like having some sort of control over how my team is built.
In my opinion, there is not enough quality in the regular yearly drafts to make re-building a team a fun experience for me. Unless you have a top 10 pick, you're most likely not going to get anyone that will make a big impact on your team.
I don't really have a good answer about which leagues are the toughest. I like 7-12, 15, 21. Of course, those are the ones I have been a part of since the allocation draft.
Every league has good and bad owners, unfortunately. Personally, I would look for existing leagues that have owners such as: DetroitLeo, King of Bling, Ares, Gustoon, Morbid, Thor, Mr. Krazy, to name a few. I'm sure there are some good owners I have left out unintentionally. These are the ones that come to mind that I like playing with.
Hope you find some fun leagues.
