Don't just focus on offensive players. Defensive specialists who rack up digs and blocks can provide steady, reliable points.
Analyze which teams are playing weaker opponents. Players facing weaker defenses are more likely to achieve bonus point thresholds.
Ensure your selected players are expected to play full matches. Substitutes and rotational players limit your scoring potential.
Use live stats to identify players on hot streaks. Recent performance is often the best predictor of upcoming success.
In multi-entry contests, create different lineup variations to hedge your strategy and increase chances of success.
Budget Management: Most contests have a salary cap. Don't spend all your budget on superstars - find value picks who can outperform their price point.
Home vs Away: Players often perform better at home. Consider home court advantage when building lineups.
Position Importance: Outside hitters and opposite hitters typically score the most points due to high kill counts. Liberos provide steady defensive points.
Team Stacking: Selecting multiple players from the same team can pay off if that team dominates. The setter-attacker connection is particularly powerful.
Contrarian Plays: In large tournaments, selecting lower-owned quality players can give you an edge over the field when they perform well.
Head-to-Head: Compete directly against one opponent. Consistency is key.
50/50 Contests: Top half of entries win. Focus on safe, high-floor players.
Tournaments: Top-heavy payouts. Take calculated risks on high-ceiling players.
Multiplier Contests: Your rank determines your multiplier. Aim for unique lineups.
Pro Tip: The best fantasy players don't just pick the best volleyball players - they identify opportunities where the scoring system rewards specific matchups and game situations. Study the point system, understand variance, and build lineups with clear scoring paths to victory.
