Why compensatory picks matter in dynasty

Compensatory picks add a layer of strategy to dynasty drafts. They reward teams that lose key players in free agency and create additional draft capital that can be used or traded. In leagues that use them, compensatory picks become a meaningful part of offseason planning.

The problem is that most fantasy platforms do not support compensatory picks natively. Commissioners end up tracking them in spreadsheets, calculating awards manually, and adding picks to the draft board by hand. It is tedious work that discourages leagues from using the feature at all.

League Tycoon handles compensatory picks inside the platform. The picks are tracked, awarded, and added to the draft automatically. Commissioners set the rules once, and the platform does the rest.
