What’s Included

The optimizer pulls together everything you need to build +EV lineups for any contest type. Key features include:

• Player Projections – Sim-driven point projections, value ratings, and ceiling outcomes

• Ownership Projections – Know where the field is going to identify leverage

• GPP Score – FTN’s proprietary metric that blends ceiling and ownership for tournament upside

• Stack Builder – Configure stack sizes, teams, and combinations (e.g. 5-2, 4-4, 5-3, etc.)

• Exposure Control – Set min/max exposure for any player or stack, including team-level limits

• Randomness & Uniqueness – Add variation to your builds to avoid duplication in large-field GPPs

• Lineup Rules – Customize salary range, ownership caps, ceiling blends, and more

• Multi-lineup Support – Generate one lineup or up to 150 at once, fully customized to your settings

• Player Groups – Lock, exclude, or create rules around specific players or combinations

Built for Every Type of DFS Player

Whether you’re a casual player entering a single-entry contest or a volume grinder mass-entering lineups, this tool adjusts to your needs. All settings are fully customizable, so you can take a high-risk, high-reward approach — or keep things tight and chalky.

Pair the optimizer with our Ownership Projections, Stack Rankings, and Expert Core Plays to bring all of FTN’s edge into one streamlined build process.
