Billionaire strategy in 195-0 World Draft

Billionaires are the game’s finance specialist. Treasurer is their premier seat, combining the highest raw fit with the top Treasurer combo tier; using one elsewhere is a meaningful opportunity cost.

Draft plan

Decisions for this category

Decision 1

Compare Treasurer first: Billionaires earn its top specialist bonus. If a Politician already covers finance, compare swapping those two categories across the vacant seats rather than assuming the Billionaire must take Treasurer.

Decision 2

President is the best fallback when Treasurer is already covered, but the cabinet still needs authority from another candidate.

Decision 3

Country diversity is evaluated across the complete cabinet. In Daily, moving the Billionaire to another seat cannot change that bonus because the five country pools stay fixed. In Classic, compare the whole-cabinet score before trading role fit for a new country.

When finance is covered, how should you compare a President fallback?

This teaching cabinet uses representative candidates from the bundled pools. It is not today's Daily lineup. Compare the two complete cabinets below: only President and Treasurer exchange occupants, while the other three appointments, countries, and authority coverage stay fixed.

At zero battlefield variance, the first assignment scores 195 and the swapped assignment scores 195. The difference is 0 points after rounding and the score cap. Equal displayed scores can hide different component values; compare fit and bonuses before concluding that the appointments are equivalent.
