The Draft Lab Podcast Episode 53: Underappreciated Archetypes of HBG

Welcome back to episode 53 of the Draft Lab Podcast where Josh and Chris go over some of the HBG archetypes that have been flying under the radar.



We start out with our weekly update before Josh acquiesces to Chris’s desires for a modified pack 1 pick 1.

We then get into what cards you need to focus on to get some of the underappreciated archetypes to work for you.

We wrap it all up with our Cool Play of the Week and Chris’s Bad Beat!

Thanks for listening and per usual let me know if you have any questions or would like to make submissions for Cool Play of the Week.
