FANTASY BASICS
Common first questions
Do I need to know every player?+
No. Start by understanding roles, expected participation, match conditions and the live scoring categories.
Can scoring change between contests?+
Rules and presentation can change. Open the current scoring and contest panels before each entry rather than relying on memory.
What if a player is not in the final line-up?+
Use the product's edit window and lock-time rules. Final line-ups should be checked as close to the deadline as your schedule allows.
