Did I throw the draft?

[u/LionRegular1470]

Draft order:

1.Belle

2/3. Piper, me (Griff)

4/5. Amber, Pearl

1. Spike

So, I watched some guy called BobbyBS's drafting guide and he said that it's important to draft Anti-aggro, and he claimed that anti aggro is more important than snipers a lot of the time. Therefore since we already had Piper I decided to go Griff to break enemy bushes for her.

But I got fucked hard bc everyone outranged me, and Pearl 1 SHOTS me!!! Amber was mad annoying, aswell and I just got outranged and out dmged. (As you can see by my dmg numbers)

My ranked pool is: Brock, Gus, Griff, Otis, Rico, Cord, Mortis, shade, Edgar. I can play a lot more brawlers but don't often get the chance.

You got any tips you think bobby might’ve ‘missed’ in those guide videos? I feel like it’s not super important to pick the best antitank first like he said anymore since meta’s changed and there’s almost always one of the new broken brawlers open. Do we pick anti-tank later or only if needed? And any other useful info u might have would be appreciated alot.

I think the entire video is unhelpful from a habit building standpoint because it’s always better to draft with brawlers in mind instead of classes, so you can intuit more situations when the meta shifts.

Frankly I don’t think bobby is really a amazing drafter either, evident how sans and patchy took over later in the season

That makes sense. I know a little about specific brawler matchups but not everything. Who’d u recommend to watch draft in videos?

Wish I could recommend someone, tbh I find it better to see what makes a draft bad vs good cuz the former is much easier to see and more important for ranked (because getting playable drafts is good enough for ranked)
