The Eliminator is a unique best ball format introduced by Underdog Fantasy in 2023. Unlike traditional best ball contests, where the goal is to score the highest points over the season, the Eliminator focuses on weekly survival. Each week, a portion of the contestant pool is eliminated, and this continues until only one champion remains in Week 17.
This means spike weeks – while still important – are not as important. Consistency is the key. So we’re tapping into FTN’s Fantasy Wins Added metric to see which players helped your fantasy team most often.
Fantasy Wins Added (FWA) is not perfect for best ball, but it’s certainly quite close. For each week of the NFL season, FWA calculates whether every player either helped or hurt your fantasy team. We can use this metric to see how consistent players were at actually being fantasy relevant.
