#99 - Drafting the Right Way
Episode description
Improvement in Magic is hard. Where to start? Diagnosing the problem can be a daunting task. Today I look at how to measure your draft strategies and figure out how you draft - are you a forcing type of a drafter or a durdly drafter who bobs and weaves for too long before making a decision to settle on a path. Both strategies have their pros and cons, so finding the right balance should improve both your win rate and in some cases also the trophy rate.
Apart from this we have a collection of data from LCI draft dataset of 17Lands.com - great first picks, what can be wheeled reliably etc. If you are interested in getting to know me better - I have a discord now. Join to chat about data, limited and see my futile attempts to make food that looks as good as it tasted. Also - cat and dog pictures. https://discord.gg/druhnK8yXn
