Systems and methods for competitive skill-based fantasy sports
View Patent ↗Methods and systems for establishing fantasy sports competitions. In one aspect, a method includes generating fantasy team rosters, each fantasy team roster including distinct individual athletes, where each fantasy team roster is balanced to the other fantasy team rosters based on historical data from a database of computed fantasy sports statistics and a database of predictive modeling of projected individual fantasy sports statistics; receiving selected teams within the at least two fantasy team rosters from users; obtaining real-time statistics of the athletes; creating a dynamic database including fantasy scoring of the athletes based on a fantasy scoring scheme; and displaying in real time the dynamic database comparing the fantasy sports statistics for each fantasy team roster to determine which fantasy team roster has amassed higher scoring fantasy sports statistics based on the fantasy scoring scheme.
1. A system for providing a fantasy sports system based on real-life sports and athlete statistics in the sports over a computer network configured to operate over a network using a server, a client, and a plurality of end-users, comprising:
the server operating the fantasy sports system, the server adapted to communicate with a network;
wherein the server is configured to:
generate at least two fantasy team rosters, each fantasy team roster including a plurality of distinct individual athletes, wherein each fantasy team roster is balanced to the others of the at least two fantasy team rosters based on one of historical data from a database of computed fantasy sports statistics and a database of predictive modeling of projected individual fantasy sports statistics;
receive at least two selected teams within the at least two fantasy team rosters from at least two users;
obtain real-time statistics of the plurality of individual athletes of the selected teams;
create a dynamic database comprising fantasy scoring of the plurality of individual athletes of the selected teams based on a fantasy scoring scheme;
display in real time the dynamic database comparing the fantasy sports statistics for each fantasy team roster to determine which fantasy team roster has amassed higher scoring fantasy sports statistics based on the fantasy scoring scheme; and
cancel a fantasy competition when the users are not matched with a threshold value of opponents.

display in real time the dynamic database comparing the fantasy sports statistics for each fantasy team roster to determine which fantasy team roster has amassed higher scoring fantasy sports statistics based on the fantasy scoring scheme; and
generate modified fantasy team rosters based on preferentially weighted fantasy scores that no longer balanced to the other fantasy team rosters.
