Win %

Last updated Jul 14, 2026

Win percent is how often a lineup finishes first in the contest across the simulation. Run a lineup through thousands of simulated worlds, count how many times it takes first place, and that share is its win percentage.

Why it matters

Win percent speaks directly to top-heavy tournaments, where first place is worth far more than a min-cash and the goal is the top of the leaderboard. A lineup with a higher win percentage has a better shot at the outcome that actually pays big. It complements Cash percentage, which is the number to watch when you just need to finish in the paid half.

Where you see it in DFS Hero

Win percent is one of the metrics on every lineup after a Build and Simulate run. Sort your Lineups panel by it when you are hunting for tournament ceiling rather than a safe cash.
