Moving on from being a broken record constantly whining......
I am in the process of building up resources to go from silver to gold. This is going to take a while as my boss at home has cut me off from spending any more cash on this game. I'm gonna hammer double gold this week and wait on Blue Boxes to keep up the progress.
With that in mind, what is your "sweet spot" in order to get a fair shake in WoH HoF, especially 6.10? I get the "game of math concept" completely.
As mentioned, I am currently Silver with a Legend at every spot in the lineup. I am also collecting lefties to accommodate the matchup favorability as well. I can beat every level of Monday WoH with ease, but do have some struggles in All Star 5.9 and 5.10. On HoF, I can play through 6.1 - 6.9 with no trouble as well. I timed it yesterday and can play those nine rounds in about 7-8 minutes, so team strength is there.
To keep it simple, is it 2, 2.5, 3, etc?
For example, if the pitcher rating is 100 and batter is 200 (2x)
Pitcher 100 batter is 250 (2.5x) and so on.
Yes, I get it, if you go gold it will increase, platinum higher, diamond higher than that. Either way, there has to be a threshold somewhere that allows for better odds.
Yesterday, I had a 6.10 matchup that was about 2.1X. It would display on the screen as a favorable matchup, just like every other round, but I was getting curved out often, or I would be allowed to get some guys on base, pull within 2 or 3 runs, only to hit into a double or triple play. A TP happened THREE times. I quit after the third TP. I had another video reboot but didn't care any longer at that point. It was clear I wasn't going to win.
So, working on next week, I can focus on a 490 Lefty to build up. I know what skills to target and all that. Just looking for the favorable math.......
TY

edit: plus you'll need the 80g boost and any "event" boost they give you such as the 5% in the last 3 hrs yesterday.
TY! Yes, Baylor, Edmonds, and Buckner were three guys I really wanted just for WoH.
Yesterday I had pretty much what you had, but no luck. The Live Boost missing definitely didn't help, obviously.
Appreciate the feedback.
I'm really looking forward to 2020 now. I feel like I have a great plan now that I understand the game. Just started too late this year to do what I want to do next year. I'll be gold within a few months next year.

I won PK a couple weeks ago. Beat it twice that evening when the live boost was on.

People worry too much about saving resources. Just go for it. Honestly, you will be fine. The resources come. If you're constantly saving for more resources it will be time for TSB 2020 before you have enough. Just level up your top WOH hitters and be done with it. It will be fine. The others that you are saving up to level up will be obsolete soon enough anyway.
He's also right that starting the game late isn't a reason not to level up. If you play the game enough, you can win at Diamond. Whether you spend or not. Really.
The brutal, honest answer to your question as to who is the guy you need to beat 6-10, is no one. You will always struggle to do it consistently at Silver. It does not matter who your closer is, he is not good enough, because you are Silver. Yes, you might get lucky sometimes and find a guy wins it for you once or twice one week. But consistently, no. And even if you find that perfect, 500 max double WOH, he will be obsolete soon enough.
The answer, again, is to stop waiting and go to gold. Or don't and go 1 for 30 on 6-10 again next week. It's really up to you, it's your team. But there is no right answer to your question other than the one that has been given. Yes, WOH can be beaten at Silver, it can be beaten at Bronze. But the consistency you're looking for won't happen.

In short my point is - you haven't missed out on anything yet. In a few weeks all of these Legends and Primes you've missed out on - are going to be passe anyways. New guys are coming out, their gonna be higher rated, and you'll have a shot at remaking your roster with them. Just stick to your plan going forward...and you'll be a beast by year end.
Will do. Is the weekday field pass or weekend field pass better? Or are they the same?
I'm about to spend 15K gold on just LXP. This will be fun..

When I went gold, I took 4 BXP guys and 2 primes and that was it. When I went platinum, I took 2 POTM, 2 BXP and 1 prime. When I went diamond, I took 2 POTM and 2 BXP to D.10, and then took one prime and one legend to D.5. Since then, I have cycle capped numerous legends and a few key primes.
Long story short: all of the legends you have now will be obsolete before long anyway, so don't worry about building up resources to take them with you. Shed a tear, leave them behind and only bring your very best guys. You'll cap new -- and here's the key: BETTER -- legends soon enough.
Nobody should give up on the game now unless they're dead sick of it. This is when the game usually becomes more fun and cheaper to play. Better free gifts, 500+ players who will be useful for the remaining life of the game, the good player pulls usually increase, there will be Black Friday and Christmas sales for really awesome players (wait for Ted Williams), etc. The game is probably more fun from the World Series on than it was before -- likely because they know they have to compensate for baseball season being over.
this game is about simple math. Active skills at the START of woh ( they DONT activate / deactivate , I used a blow out alonso on 4.10 / 5.10 and 6.8 this week and he DESTROYED ) figure out hit rating at start with skills, rank accordingly.
But @MoenPDC is correct, you are going to have to leave some legends behind and accept that a full legend team at the next level isn't going to happen, at least not quickly. Just pick the ones that will benefit you most in WOH.
