What is your preferred tournament format (e.g. large-field, single-entry) to play on this slate? How do you plan to beat that field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?

Moneyball16: Large-field GPPs – Between the 12-game slate size and the fact that ownership will be pretty spread out between EDM, COL, VAN, and DAL on the higher end, I will not be worrying too much about ownership tonight and will be focusing on high-value correlated lineups.

TastefulTides: Single-entry and 3-max GPPs are my preferred format. There is some really nice value today, so this is shaping up to be a stars-and-scrubs type of slate. Edmonton is my favorite high-end stack, with Dallas being a close second. Vancouver and Buffalo have some really nice value pieces you can add to your roster to get in those high-end studs.

Hunter4ever89: Single-entry and 3-max tournaments are my preferred contests on this slate. With a huge 12-game slate and plenty of teams in decent matchups, I am not going to worry about ownership at all. I will be looking to build around the expensive, high-upside stacks like Colorado, Edmonton, and Dallas. We have plenty of cheaper stacks to pair them with to make my lineups unique. Teams like San Jose, Vancouver, and Nashville are likely where I will find some value.

Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?

Robert Brown (Epignosis)

Robert Brown (aka Epignosis) was having lunch at a sports bar. A football game was on. He remarked to his wife that if he could have a second life, he’d like to be someone who enjoyed watching sports. That enjoyment began when he signed up for a fantasy football league that needed one more player. Since then, he has enjoyed playing NFL, NBA, and (especially) MLB DFS. When not teaching American literature, editing content for RotoGrinders (which he has done since 2019), or making lineups, Epignosis is rocking out or jazzing it up on one of several possible instruments.
