What is StatHero?
Founded in 2018, StatHero has revolutionized the Daily Fantasy Sports landscape by introducing fantasy survivor pools that democratize the playing field for participants. Unlike traditional DFS models, StatHero users compete directly against the platform (the House) rather than a vast pool of professional players. This unique approach, coupled with a multi-day game format, allows users to achieve an average of 2.5 times their buy-in value. The company offers engaging games across major sports leagues including the NFL, NBA, MLB, NASCAR, and PGA, providing a distinct and compelling fantasy sports experience.
