SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Nov 5, 2014) - With the 2014/15 NBA season underway, DraftHero today formally unveiled the newest fantasy sports platform that provides a breakthrough in convenience and ease of use, along with more than $500,000 in potential prize money.
DraftHero provides a flexible, mobile and convenient fantasy sports platform that delivers rewards across major sports leagues in a way that's visual and convenient without requiring much time for users to set up.
Barak Eisenstein, CEO and Founder of DraftHero, said, "We created DraftHero so that it would provide the easiest, fastest and simplest daily fantasy sports experience in the market. Other fantasy platforms can be extremely tedious, particularly for the casual fantasy player. With DraftHero you can draft your fantasy team in less than 30 seconds."
Eisenstein added that DraftHero also provides an unprecedented second screen experience that allows participants to see the live performance of their fantasy team players in real-time and compare the leaderboard standings of other opponents. "Watching a game on TV while using DraftHero simultaneously brings fantasy sport to different excitement levels -- the thrill of a buzzer-beating victory and a cash win at the same time."
DraftHero tested its format and features with the MLB's 2014 season and the current NFL season to a resounding success. An average user in DraftHero drafts three different fantasy teams on any given day and logs in more than 25 times on game night to watch how their team performs.
With daily fantasy sports being one of the fastest growing online gaming genres in the US today, it's no surprise sports fans are looking for a faster, more engaging platform. DraftHero provides social elements, mobility and an ease and speed to set up that provides real time, live tracking for the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL.
Features of DraftHero include:
- A comprehensive second screen experience that allows users to watch how their fantasy teams perform live
- Free and premium games
- $500,000 in guaranteed prizes
- Draft your team in less than 30 seconds. Fans choose a fantasy team of five players they think will score the most points (one from each position)
- The participant whose fantasy team accumulates the most points will be the winner of the room
