Introducing Less and More Picks on Demons & Goblins

Red Demon picks and green Goblin picks are no longer More-only. Now, on select Demon and Goblin projections, you can choose either More or Less. 

When available, the player projection will show the Demon and Goblin icon next to the More or Less, so you can see which type of pick you’re making before adding it to your Lineup. 

Adding a Demon can increase your Lineup’s potential payout compared to a standard projection, while a Goblin makes the outcome easier to hit in exchange for a lower payout.

Now, you have more options to stack up your Lineup with the picks you want.

For example, one projection might show a green Goblin on the Less, and a red Demon on the More. That means picking More is the harder outcome with higher payout potential, while picking Less is the easier outcome with a lower payout.

Users will now see the Less option on several MLB and WNBA stat types, with more sports, including NFL, coming soon.

What Do Demons and Goblins Mean?

To keep it simple: More or Less tells you which direction you’re picking. The red Demon or green Goblin tells you the difficulty and payout of that outcome.

Demons and Goblins give you different levels of difficulty and payout potential.

What Is a Demon on PrizePicks?

A Demon is a more difficult Player Pick marked with a red Demon icon in the app.

And now, Demons can appear on either More or Less on select projections — so you have more ways to take on a tougher outcome, no matter what side you like.

For example, let’s say Fever PG Caitlin Clark's standard projection on points is set at 21.5. 

In this case, there could be a Demon on either a lower or higher projection:

• 24.5 points – More = Demon pick / Less = Goblin
• 17.5 points – Less = Demon pick / More = Goblin

Adding Demons to your Lineup is the only way to reach PrizePicks’ maximum 2000x payout, though the exact payout depends on your picks.

Does More always mean Demon?

No. More and Less tell you the direction of your pick. Demon and Goblin tell you the difficulty and payout of that outcome.

Check the icon next to each option before making your pick.

What Is a Goblin on PrizePicks?

A Goblin is a statistically easier pick marked with a green Goblin icon in the app. Goblin picks are easier to hit than standard projections, but they come with a lower payout.

Now, Goblins can appear on either More or Less on Player Pick projections, giving you more ways to take the easier side, no matter which side you like.

For example, let’s say Dodgers SP Shohei Ohtani's standard strikeout projection is set at 7.5 Ks.

In this case, there could be a Goblin on both a lower or higher projection on Ohtani's Ks.

• 5.5 Ks – More = Goblin pick / Less = Demon
• 9.5 Ks – Less = Goblin pick / More = Demon

Does Less always mean it's a Goblin?

No. A Less outcome can be a Demon or Goblin, depending on the projection. The icon in the app next to “Less” will show you which one it is.
