Can I set tiebreakers?

Learn how you can manage these in your league

Written by Jacob

Regular Season

It is completely possible that your fantasy regular-season matchup ends in a tie. It's very unlikely, especially depending on your scoring settings, but it can happen!

We do not offer any sort of tiebreakers for regular-season matchups, so you'll just get a tie added to your record.

If your league does not want ties, commissioners can manually adjust scores using their commissioner tools.


On Mobile

The commissioner can go to:

  • Settings

  • Commish

  • Edit Matchup Scores

  • Adjust the point total.

On Web

  • Go to League settings

  • Open Commissioner Control

  • Select Edit lineups and Matchup Scores/Records

  • You can edit the Total Points of any week that has already completed

Once you do, it will trigger a message in the league chat to show that you altered a team's points. This is intentional and we do not have a way of disabling that alert.


Standings

If two or more teams finish with the same record, the default standings tiebreakers are:

  • Points For

  • Higher Points Against

The team with more Points For will rank higher.

If that is also tied, the team with the higher Points Against will advance.

Any additional tiebreakers are determined by a coin flip unless the commissioner manually adjusts playoff seeding using custom seeding.

  • For example, if your league prefers head-to-head record as the tiebreaker, the commissioner can manually seed that team into the playoffs.


Playoffs

If any playoff matchups end with a tie score, the winner is automatically the higher seed.
