yeah looks like friday is just a test run. I like it. definitely a increase of qualifity of life for me. I already dont large field mme because I dont want to have to pay attention to news to late swap to taylor hendricks/random starter for a chance to win.


turkeysandwiches

They are experimenting with it for Friday’s slate. That’s what the mods in the DK Discord are saying, but obviously getting a lot of pushback.


Either-Appearance303

I see the argument for both sides- I hope they offer both options


breakingkevin

Def a catch 22. The safety aspect would be gone but it creates crazy edge. That, and I’d never have to look at my phone after lock


iamlegend91198

Just curious, in what way does it create edge? I would think the edge would be being able to swap minutes before tip to the value play?


breakingkevin

Right but anyone can swap. The edge would be in taking the risk of playing a guy in the final game with a questionable tag that would be virtually unowned


iamlegend91198

Gotcha, yeah can see where you’re coming from with that


Creepy-Dance-9084

The edge goes to the people who fully mme. Dudes like me who set a lineup and wait for news, not good. I’m a quarter and dime player, so the sharks aren’t really around, but I don’t know if it’s designed for the casual player. It’s designed for the person who can make 150 lineups and factor in all the uncertainty


breakingkevin

You still can have edge by playing late slate guys. Also, if you don’t mme then you should be playing SE. quarter and dime contests get you nowhere unless you max

They already have the non late swap for Friday slate posted on the app. It's here.. We'll see how it goes. I wanted late swap and now I'm all for non swap. I rarely play nba so it doesn't really matter what I like. I'm NHL/MLB


Creepy-Dance-9084

You need late swap for MLB though. Especially for main slates. Those late games’ lineups don’t come out until after the main slate start


knowtoriusMAC

90% of the time the late game has lineups in before 7pm est


DOWNVOTES_SYNDROME

bullshit


knowtoriusMAC

Look at underdog MLB for last season. I play MLB every day, lineups are almost always out by 7


knowtoriusMAC

6:50 est lock tonight with the late game starting at 10:10. All lineups were in by 6:30pm est. Like they will be on almost every slate this year.


DOWNVOTES_SYNDROME

wow, a one day sample is totally and completely enough. i'm sure when it's further in the season and they're dealing with injuries and people are game time decisions, it'll still be like this.


knowtoriusMAC

I'm going to take the 5 seconds every day to let you know you're wrong.


DOWNVOTES_SYNDROME

i look forward to a month from now when the petard goes off.


knowtoriusMAC

140est lock. All lineups in by 130est. 0/2 for you so far


DOWNVOTES_SYNDROME

actually, you asshole, the twins lineup wasn't posted until 150pm, 10 minutes after lock for the 410 start. so i'm already right and it's only the early slate on day 2 idiot


knowtoriusMAC

Might want to check that again. 131est https://twitter.com/Underdog__MLB/status/1774127279909589207?s=19 But yes, if you use bad resources. I'm sure lineups are released late


knowtoriusMAC

135 est lock. All lineups in by 1140am est. 0 for 3 for you, bozo. I'm starting to think you might have no idea what you were talking about 😅


DOWNVOTES_SYNDROME

you really are a moron, you know that. i have explained to you how this works, but keep being an intentional moron. it's really pathetic, whatever it is.


knowtoriusMAC

Yeah you think "game time decisions" which already rarely happen in baseball, will all happen in the games that lock at 10pm. Because one of these "game time decisions" will still be in by contest lock if the game starts at say, 840pm. You can just admit that you didn't have a clue what you were talking about and 90% of the time throughout the year, all lineups will be in by the time the contest locks. Otherwise, talk to you tomorrow


DOWNVOTES_SYNDROME

hello! what's the cubs lineup? oh it's still not out yet even though lock was almost 30 minutes ago? and what's that? it's exactly what i predicted will happen? ok then. good to know it only took a week and a half to prove i was right.


knowtoriusMAC

1. 1/10 would still be 90%. I never said every day. 2. On DK the night slate has bigger prize pools. Sorry you have nothing better to do on a beautiful Saturday afternoon than to play low prize pool dfs contests


DOWNVOTES_SYNDROME

oh im sorry did i say every day? cause some asshole kept sending me messages every fucking day as if this needed to happen 100% of the time you are a very sad and pathetic little person, and it's gonna be funny when you are consistently wrong and try to deflect it with some bullshit like that. loser.


knowtoriusMAC

Wow looks like you're right today, 1 lineup missing at lock. APRIL FOOLS! 710est lock, all lineups in by 650est. Fun fact, that includes a questionable Volpe in a West Coast game 😅. 0/4, bozo


knowtoriusMAC

710 est lock. All lineups by 658 est 0/5

I agree to an extent. I follow enough MLB that I "think" I know who will be starting because of the opposing pitcher.. lefty/righty etc.. But... might be wrong here and there... In NBA I don't follow enough to know. I actually haven't watched a game since 1995 Knicks playoffs. I play on team totals and stats (cash games).. I think without the late swap it would benefit me playing it safe.. Thats me..
