Well I actually don't agree with that at all. In my opinion, DFS are indeed a game of skill. The same principle applies to derivatives on the financial market - there is an underlying asset (for example, oil) and you "bet" on whether the price will go up or down and you win or lose money based on that, although you don't really own the asset itself. In the case of DFS, the underlying asset is the real players' performance, something that is far from random. If we can agree on the fact that it takes skills and knowledge to foresee the changes in the price of oil, then it must follow that being good at DFS requires skills as well. Here's another article on the subject that you might want to check out, it offers a very realistic view on DFS: http://fantasysportsdaily.com/is-dfs-on-the-verge-of-shutting-down/
