@Steeler - have you had much luck with their LU builder? What type of settings do you use for your LUs/Stacks?
Depends on how you define success
TLDR: I use all the defaults for the free rotogrinders LU builder except for Golf where I set Max Exposure to 50% and Number of Unique Players to 3. I'm usually looking for just one lineup per build from this tool so this works OK for me.

I'm just fooling around with sports I know very little about from a DFS POV (MLB, NBA, NHL, Golf) and I'm basically treading water due to placing 2nd in a small FD tourney. I play 100% tournaments @ 25 cent entry on DK (and occasionally $1 or $2 on FD) and I'm focused on game theory to build lineups more than anything since I'm not fluent in these sports. At this point with the NBA and NHL playoffs in full swing I play at least one showdown lineup for each game each night (sometimes multiple lineups for each game).
For NBA I'll review the
fantasy labs free content and select a few captains and "must plays", generate lineups, and move forward. I don't spend that much time with the rotogrinders lineup generator other than to have it fill in the rest of the lineups. Tonight I have 3 lineups with Jokic, Lillard, and Kanter as captains for example.
For NHL I review
Daily Face Off but mostly just wing it and enter one showdown lineup per game. NHL seems the most random so just trying different combinations of lines/strategies is fun.
I don't play MLB much right now with NHL/NBA playoffs but tonight I played a Reds stack + K. Hernandez and let the LU builder fill in the rest, so far it's not working out
For Golf I'm usually playing 10 LU per tournament (@ 25 cents on DK) based on the information from
Fantasy Labs. Two weeks ago I was in 2nd place and winning over $100 on Saturday but Dustin Johnson had a terrible Sunday dropping me back pretty far to win only $1 IIRC. But that's the nature of tournaments.
