It’s no secret this game is controlled by simulation and RNG. Players often win/lose when they shouldn’t due to random outcomes completely out of their control.
If your all at SDS happy with the game playing like that then so be it.
Due to the randomness in this game, my suggestion is that players don’t lose rank points after a loss in RS. You either keep moving up after a win or stay right where your at. It’s unfortunate and frustrating to lose a couple games and therefore lose rank points when the game ultimately decided the outcome. If you don’t feel like that’s happening, I’ll direct your attention to the numerous videos that have been shared that clearly show players getting screwed over by the simulation. It happens and there’s no defense or excuse for it.
Keep your simulated play, just don’t take points when the simulation has such an influence in games.
I could not disagree more with this entire post.

This is exactly what events are though.

Good, should be no problem to implement it into RS then.

They are two different modes. If you don’t like RS, just play events only.

Makes complete sense. You win...you move on...you lose...you stay where your at and try again.

I like 9 inning games, thanks for the suggestion though.

All that does is,make RS easier....like your asking for a crutch

How would it be easier? As you move up you’ll be playing other players at that same level all trying to win and keep moving up.

You’re asking for RS to have a set number of wins needed to make WS. That’s what events are. You just want things to be easier, when they don’t need to be.

Yeah but you're not punished for losing...it's obviously easier

How would it make it easier if your playing opponents who have achieved the same level your currently at? Explain to me how that makes it easier.

Because you could lose 1000 games, and still make WS once you reach the set win total needed.
How dumb do you have to be to not realize how much easier that would be?

I’m not insulting you and I’d appreciate it if you didn’t insult me. If you can beat the competition at the higher levels all trying to make WS, I’m sorry but it’s no “easy” task to do that.

@T_H_O_R_Storm To incorporate your idea, we could do similar to what madden does. A 10 game season- you win X number of games to qualify for playoffs (Can get a bye to skip WC game, based on # of wins in regular season ). Then one game playoff for WC, DS, and CS before World Series. Then you get demoted to next rank or promoted based on number of wins in that system, losses don’t hurt your rank necessarily but you could fall to a lower tier.

Once thing I have started to realize is that rewards outside of WS are so p!ss poor that wins/losses in RS are almost meaningless. We're the ones that attach some weird importance to them. The real rewards, quite frankly, are in events.
I know I'm going to get frustrated in RS but I'm going to try and keep this in mind since there is very little chance I ever end up in WS so why care? Try to find a way to enjoy myself and move on from the BS when it occurs. Easier said than done but I think that is going to be the only way to find some fun, for me, in this game moving forward.
I'm a madden guy and winning in seasons and WL actually deliveres some substantial rewards which perpetuates the game play issues. MLB RS? Meh.

Look at the caliber of players you’ll be playing as you get closer to the top. Explain to me how that would be an easy task.

Very easy concept to grasp Ryan
You could lose to 20 opponents of that caliber, but all you have to do is win one to advance further, so you could lose 20 out of 21 games, and still make progress. Therefore, it's a lot easier to make WS. It's not that hard of a concept to grasp.
Your concept would turn WS into whoever has enough time to play will make it. Which is fine if that's what you are going for, but pretending it won't be easier is being dishonest.
