Description

Mike Leone takes a look at the 2020 Best Ball Mania data to determine why extreme RB strategies were successful. Despite being seemingly at odds with one another, players that took RBs early but not a lot of them (HyperFragile) and players that took no RBs early but took a lot of them (Zero RB) were among the most profitable builds last season.This podcast looks into what makes those strategies work on Underdog Fantasy and how we can potentially enjoy the best of both worlds. Mike delves into:-HyperFragile builds maximize win rates when you make a good RB selection-Zero RB builds maximize your likelihood of making a profitable early pick-Both builds take advantage of WRs outscoring RBs at each point in the draft but in different ways-There are archetypes of RBs that are better suited for Zero RB builds than HyperFragile builds and others we should be targeting no matter whatYou can follow all of Mike's work at establishtherun.com, and you can find the full data on this topic in his article here: https://establishtherun.com/reverse-engineering-extreme-rb-strategies-on-underdog/
