How Daily Fantasy Works
In daily fantasy you assemble a lineup of real athletes for a single slate of games rather than managing a team across a whole season. Your entry earns fantasy points based on what those athletes do on the field, and how you finish depends on that scoring compared with a projection or with other entries.
Contests run on short timeframes, often a single day or a single slate, which is where the daily part of the name comes from. You choose your entry amount, lock your lineup before the games begin, and then follow along as the results come in.
Underdog's Contests
Pick'em. You look at a set of player projections and decide whether each athlete will finish above or below the line the app sets. You combine several of these selections into a single entry, and the entry pays out based on how many of your picks land.
Best ball. You draft a roster and your optimal lineup is scored automatically each week, so there is no in-week lineup management. Your entry competes against other rosters over the length of the contest.
Both formats are fantasy contests built around real athlete performance. The specific contests and slates available can change from week to week and by location.
