I know there’s been a few SS but I have a 350 Polanco there right now so I’ll attempt to get the 15-16 wins I need to fill that hole. Wish I had more pxp to make it faster but it is what it is.
Lots of those BGs at diamond are against teams in silver and gold, and players that leveled way too fast (I’ve seen 75k diamond teams out there), but yeah you can win with almost anything starting with a good offense. I would do the reliever thing …
I guess I just need to play 7,000 to 8,000 games one week and just buy lxp boxes with all the gold lol. I’ve stayed away from HoF due to the lack of lxp I carry and with PotM gone after this month I’m going to be in a little bit of a hole. Oh well…
They might also want to not provide timetables for when things like updates come out because when stuff happens as it’s prone to do when it’s something like this that bugs and other things come out that derail their plans the masses aren’t out …
PotW/PotM flavors have never been weekend bonus players other than CvC. You’ve always have had to buy boxes to play on the weekend if you wanted to compete. With that said these boxes this weekend are pretty awful.
I get people are pissed off (I’m not terribly happy either) but the man said there were some big time bugs and there would be far more backlash if a faulty update comes out right before the weekend. As far as the other issues, yes there needs to be…
As with most things, losing a competitive advantage over “the masses” is bound to make some upset. Not sure why the multipliers aren’t revealed at the start or if the mystery angle of “did we either play BGs or tourneys” is that big of a thing why …
With Hosmer and Carew you have the beginnings of a nice finishing group. You’ll want one more lefty at least as good as those two and a righty with proper skills to go with Mays as well. You’ll fare better if you have the resources to go gold as w…
This guy went apeshit in his first 100 bonus games and he replaced for the time being a partially leveled keeper and allowed me to send Kinsler packing after 2 days on the roster. My first non blue exp player capped (have two other primes in mid di…
It took me 12 wins because I can’t count (didn’t have enough gold due to restarts on the very first cycle for gold to plat). Overall with live boosts I won 7 of the 12 with those. Arraez will be pretty useful for me for at least a little while. O…
So far I have 3 wins though it’s been somewhat interesting then again I haven’t touched Royale WoH in nearly a month. I’m glad I finally pulled Suarez before it started though as I didn’t have a real answer for a diamond LHP. Deboosted Alvarez is …
I used to go to D1 only on pitchers, then I started losing finals of tourneys and it annoyed me so while I haven’t capped a pitcher since July Cole I do go mid diamond on the active PotM starters just for those troublesome tourney finals against the…
Silver skews things a bit as it’s just math, not as much separation of ratings. You’ll want at least one premium LHB, two preferably as JT leveled and skilled enough will be fine (my personal experience RvR isn’t too bad while at least for me LvL w…
3 to 3.5 per minute with an aging iPhone 7+ with good internet conditions (rural area so while it never really drops it can get a bit chunky at prime time etc). Can have spurts of much better (have had spots of 5-6 per minute with FP) but seeing thi…
I’ve opened 34 boxes, with only one hitter (at least it was Meadows). I’ve pulled Flaherty 5x, and Workman 2x. Only 10 pulls of players overall in those 34 attempts.
I finally raised enough Pxp to think about cycle capping (damn PotM boxes not giving me hitters till my 27th Box notwithstanding). I will say I’m biased as a diamond team that it’s been nice that bonus games/tourneys have been the large multiplier a…
Guess it is my turn to have shit for luck I’ve opened 17 PotM boxes and have the two starters and one reliever to show for it and nothing in the last 9 boxes. Just kinda painful when this one misses as its 1400 a pop at least I’m getting my pxp to a…
Very true on the early swing, I love hitting changeups for this very reason as the ball is moving so slow you naturally have to wait for the ball to get into the hitting zone.
If you are behind it’s ok to swing in those situations at unhitable sequences as it will go where it normally goes. Never swing at unhitable sequences when you are tied and the runner at 3rd as the floating ball and the ground ball to the pitc…
For #1, sometimes. The outside fastball can sometimes can be hit on the ground or a medium length fly ball the other way. The sharp curveball or heavy slider tends to either get missed or is a weak pop up. #2 is absolutely right, on “unhittable” …
My scores have been more or less the same (mediocre) but I’ve won high round in 3 of the 4 I’ve participated in and 2 MVPs this weekend so I’m pretty happy. Overall scores do seem to be slightly less so I’d say there’s been some impact with stronge…
You’re not going to get hits every time you go to the plate. My 440 diamond 10 PotM makes outs in WoH and CvC all the time. These bronze 1 1-2 star pitchers weren’t going to be the pitchers all season and honestly I’m surprised they lingered this…
The base ones didn’t but there were a fair number of “like primes” who weren’t as ideal ratings wise as primes but were more than serviceable in ‘18 as two of them were those that I brought over.
I don’t need a 3B but since we’re coming up on the end of the month I’ll cycle cap him as I begin again the hoarding exp for PotM for September/keepers that I may begin to finally level that would give me 2 HoF bats, 1 for each side or 2LHB.
Fan rewards in the 2 years I’ve played the entire season always have started 1 hour after the start of the weekend event (some like the gold spent to go toward their ballpark vs fan rewards)
I am unflagged now, while it was just a nominal 35M in the prime event still sucks to lose it due to no faults of my own. Not sure if I’ll play much the rest of the weekend.
