What would your custom practice look like if you’re at 800 trying to get in to WS? Do you practice on legend or HOF? Best pitcher to go against? Best pitches and locations to focus on? I’ve tried using custom practice but it doesn’t seem to translate well to in game

Breaking through too 600 has been tough. Win three in a row and then get mashed 2 in a row

I’m having trouble throwing people out off a force out at first. Like the hitter has swung and the camera goes to the back catcher while the hitter is running to first. I can’t get a green throw it keeps showing red and I can’t seam to get a perfect throw so they end up over throwing. I don’t know what I’m suppose to do

My biggest issue is I can't hit my spots consistently with my pitchers and with hitting my pci placement. I'm very patient at the plate but I just can't seem to consistently get good pci placements😒

Besides not being able to do pinpoint the biggest setback I have that keeps me from being elite is I use buttons only with no throw meter because I tend to make horrible throws regularly. But relying on rng sometimes gives me a terrible throw at the worst moment possible
@pitpenguinfan877118 ай бұрын
I cannot understate how vital it is that you remove that rng element from your game play. It sucks making the adjustment but over time its definitely worth it

I hadn’t played mlb the show for about 2 years before this one. Only ever played RTTS and played on directional for hitting. Switched to zone a few weeks ago. I can already tell how much better I’ve gotten but damn I still have a ways to go. Consistently slamming my PCI on pitches down the middle.

Can you explain what makes going lefty lefty bad, I’m asking because some of the guys numbers hitting right and hitting left was that far apart so I figured they hit either pitcher well, does the difficulty play apart in your reasoning also? I don’t do my lineup to save my life that’s why I’m asking

usually it's harder to hit lefty lefty just because of where the ball is coming from. my favorite card is always yelich but it sucks because of john and randy, I can never read the ball. that's just my pov on it though

I’ve only played a few games on legend this season. I don’t play legend enough to keep playing. Too scared lol. My 870 game, played someone who was barely over 900 on legend. Then at 890ish I played someone with 1000 icon. I was really upset but somehow got to 950 after all that

Don’t get down on your record cj… Ramone is incompetent. If the gameplay was competitive (what ranked is SUPPOSED TO BE) you would have wayyyy less losses. Nothing you can do when they nerf your exit velos and give your opponents fluke hits all game.

I won a game without a single perfect perfect output 8-6. Didn't even feel like I deserved it. SDS is incentivized to not adjust hitting as most of their money makers are not spending money on stubs and choice packs. It's sad to see how bad the game has cratered this year. I have a feeling it's only going to get worse from here on out.

This isn't very relevant and just my opinion ... but I can't stand hitting with the just X button. I love analog stride for the immersion but once I get on legend it's SO FUCKING HARD. There needs to be a more forgiving timing reward for analog stride.
