New FanDuel Mixup Contests

Kirill | 2017-05-09 |

The world leading Daily Fantasy Sports provider, FanDuel, has launched a brand new service called Mixup. With FanDuel Mixup, the fantasy rosters are smaller, which makes researching easier and less time-consuming.

What is FanDuel Mixup?

FanDuel’s Mixup is the newest Daily Fantasy trend. There is a different condition each week and the selection is themed. The addition of themes makes the fantasy experience even more fun than before.

The rosters are very small. For example, this week the players have to fill just 5 slots, picking at least 2 pitchers. This means you will have to research significantly less.

Maybe the most enjoyable feature of FanDuel’s Mixup is the theme experience. It adds a bit of randomness to make players show some true skill by adjusting to the week’s unique conditions.

It is similar to Mortal Komat X’s mode called “Test Your Luck”, where sometimes your fighter has no limbs, both players are allowed to use only punches, or the jump is forbidden. Such game modes bring a lot of variety to any competition and lets the most skillful players stand out.

This week’s theme is “No Pets Allowed” which allows players to make their picks only from teams without animals in their name. Other possible themes could be “Blue Jerseys Only”, “Players With the Letter B”, “Teams With Titles Only”, etc. The same scoring as in the traditional games applies.

How to Enter FanDuel Mixup Contests

Entering the FanDuel Mixup competition is very easy. Of course you need to be a registered member. After you log in to your account and navigate to the contests section, you will find the Mixup contests under the MLB tab.

If you don’t feel ready to give Mixup a full go, the guys from FanDuel created a practice field with low entry fees. For example you can jump in the MLB Mixup Tee Ball contest for as little as $1.

FanDuel Mixup Features

FanDuel’s CPO, Tom Griffiths, admits the reason behind launching the new service was to add more variety and fun to the traditional Daily Fantasy games and to make fantasy gaming enjoyable for every kind of user.

To sum it up, the features of Mixup include filling smaller rosters, fun weekly themed challenges, and standard scoring. But there is also the head-to-head possibility.

Players can not only participate in the global challenges, but also test their skills against each other in H2H format matches.

If FanDuel Mixup looks like your kind of Daily Fantasy sports service, give it a go!
