In this roster they pick the players from different teams (say Liverpool or Chelsea) to make a virtual team of their dreams. Now selection of these players depend on the user's research, analysis, or intuition of how individuals are going to perform in the season. This process of player selection is called a Draft.

3. There are different modes in a Fantasy game app- • Daily & weekly • Scoring-based • Draft-based • League-based • Conduct a user research to know what your audience wants and then plan the functionalities and types of games you'd like to get developed. It's imperative to have clarity as it reflects in your budget.

These points are then used to examine the standings of the participating fantasy teams on the leaderboard. This work is performed by a Team Manager that is assigned to every team.There is also a League Commissioner who monitors the overall league by tracking, compiling, and calculating actual results of the professional sport.The performances of the fantasy teams can be easily tracked via different websites and mobile applications.
