Esports Fantasy: Pick Tournament Winners and Score Points on Upsets

Fantasy Sports Came Late to Esports

Traditional sports have had fantasy leagues for decades. Esports took longer — partly because the season structure is less predictable, partly because the audience skewed younger and less familiar with the fantasy format.

How Esports Fantasy Works on esport.is

esport.is/fantasy runs tournament-based fantasy — you pick which teams you think will advance at the start of a tournament, then score points as they win.

The scoring system:

  • Standard win: 3 points
  • Upset win (beating a higher-ranked team): 5 points
  • Tournament win: 10 points

This rewards good prediction skill and bold calls — picking the underdog to run a tournament deep pays off more than safe picks.

Combined with the Daily Challenge

The daily challenge runs alongside fantasy — daily predictions versus the weekly tournament format. Both contribute to your overall leaderboard position.
