Entering & editing lineups

1.Can I change my lineup after I've entered a contest?

Yes, you can edit any lineup prior to the scheduled start time of the contest. To edit, go to the upcoming tab and click on a specific contest to edit your lineup.

For contests that do not offer late swap, all edits will be final at the scheduled start time of the first game of the slate. That means no more entries and no more lineup changes.

If a contest offers late swap, users can edit their players right until their individual games start, so you don’t have to worry about late news affecting your lineup. Using late swap is easy. Just follow the simple steps below:

1. Identify a late swap contest with the unlocked padlock icon. Then set your lineup.

2. Once your slate begins, find your lineup in the live screen. When a player’s individual game has started, his spot in your lineup will be locked. But all other players are eligible to be changed until their individual game start, so if anything happens to affect if or how much they’ll play (like a late scratch or bad storm) before game start, you can make the change.

3. To make changes, first select the Edit button, and then choose the player you want to swap. You’ll see a list of players eligible to be chosen. Pick the player you want to substitute into your lineup, and then save your revised team. Just be sure to stay under the salary cap!

Please keep in mind that normal editing rules apply. You can select up to four players from one team, must select layers from at least three different teams, and cannot exceed the salary cap. Additionally, you cannot swap for a player after their game has started.

2.How can I tell if a contests has late swap?

It’s easy to identify late swap contests. Simply look for the unlocked padlock icon and late swap descriptor next to a slate of contests.
