#14: Face the Enemy of Your Own Choosing
Wednesday Aug 18, 2021
Wednesday Aug 18, 2021
This week we are doing a draft show where the hosts of the show will get to show off their list building skills by drafting different pilots to help them build their empire or resistance. They will have to then face each other with the lists they built to see who the champion will be. This fun exercise is the first in the series of drafting as drafting is a favorite thing of Tanners to do when he plays other games. Come join them as they do a GSP style draft for their first Face the Enemy draft challenge and tune in as they discuss why they drafted what they did.
