## Resource

🎙️ Welcome to the Future 1st Podcast — where we help you win today with a Future 1st mindset! Bestball dynasty isn't just regular dynasty without lineup decisions—it completely changes how you should build a roster. In this episode, we break down the foundational strategies that separate winning bestball managers from everyone else. We discuss why depth matters more than stars, how to embrace variance and maximize spike weeks, when tier-down trades create value, why "zeroes" can make or break your roster, and how to build a championship-caliber roster based on league format and scoring. Whether you're entering your first bestball dynasty league or looking for an edge over experienced managers, this episode is packed with actionable dynasty strategy you can apply immediately.
