High Upside 2022 names?

Recommended Posts

I just won my 2021 pool in dominant fashion. Using the 100 - N with N being age of death scoring rules, I absolutely destroyed the competion by capitalizing on some high upside picks. In addition to getting Sarah Harding (61 points) I also hit on a couple 30+ wins (Paul Westphal, Leon Spinks) and some other 20+ wins. My rule is that I don't pick anyone over 80 unless they're an absolute lock to die and I mostly avoid anyone who is 90+. 

 

The rules of my league are pretty easy. You pick 30 names, and the only qualifier is that they have an existing Wikipedia page. 

 

What are some good high upside names for 2022? Ideally, nobody over 80 gets suggested.

Ah, but do you need our help when you already know how to win?

I know how to win haha, I just need to know who those high upside names are because everyone else in my pool leans on old people.

Okay, the problem right now is that we have our competitions starting, too. So people might not necessarily be willing to share them. But you can look around the forum, you might find some.

Wouldn’t work. Creating a new Wikipedia article is easier than ordering a Deliveroo.

 

You’d have to make it a little more sophisticated ie has an existed Wiki article that was created at least 3 months prior (as just about all junk new articles are deleted within a few months by admins on there).
