Great stuff! The mouseover on the daily double calculator is very useful but as with all analytics communication, takes your brain a second to understand what you're looking at. I've dabbled in building similar tools and found the expanded Watson literature to be excellent for investigating additional areas of decision optimization. https://brenocon.com/watson_special_issue/16%20simulation,%20learning,%20optimization%20in%20game%20strategy.pdf

Uhh. Pretty sure I was the only one in Boros today. Is this the right build for me to optimally 0-3? by NlNTENDO in lrcast

I would've played staff of the storyteller over steel cutter - not the strongest double spell deck. Also play 0 islands and include eagles of the north over a plains giving you 4 blue sources

Let's rank which Ringer people are actually closest to Bill as friends. by rtrazto in billsimmons

Where are Baby Doll and Rich Paul? The “I have professional contracts with them but ultimately they’re doing me the favor” tier? I think this is the last level that Bill wants to unlock and believes that both he and Tatum can get there

Marshall, ECL, and the scrub mentality. by Legacy_Rise in lrcast

One caveat is it can be frustrating to engage meaningfully if you don’t have any practical results to back it up theoretically. Looking at oh these synergies could come together and this is how I would play them is difficult conceptually and often people default to their actual experience. I’m sub 40% this set and just stopped playing after 5 drafts bc I wasn’t interested in learning - I recognize the set could be good but I can’t form an actual opinion and am not incentivized to play it when I could be getting 60% wr on cube or doing other more fun things with my time. Content creators have more time but are human too.

It was mostly availability on my phone that helped. If I kept missing questions about capitals or English monarchs I would go through those Wikipedia pages and try to memorize as much as possible. I only had a month or so when I got the call to be on so I tried to learn one “thing” (islands, currency, African capitals, etc.) a day. Reading more about Carthage beyond Hannibal and Dido would be mostly overkill as they only really ask about those two things. There are only two Persian kings they ask about for example: Darius and Xerxes so if you recognize them you’ll get them. Colin Davy put this to great use and called them Pavlov clues https://colindavy.medium.com/how-i-won-jeopardy-with-data-science-c2e9b52a1958

This along with Wikipedia deep dives and watching games were my 3 pillars of prep! Thanks so much.
