    This is exactly what events are though.

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

    Makes no sense

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

    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.

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

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

    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

    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.

    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.

    Well if no one gets knocked down then the pool of players at the top grows larger. With a larger pool also comes a more watered down pool where competition is less sweaty this making the overall experience at the top less sweaty. Still sweaty but not the blood bath it probably is now.

    I kinda like the idea. Just make the total number of wins to get to WS higher and You could probably work something out

    If you got your [censored] kicked 20 games in a row but got better and you finally beat a top level player, why shouldn’t you be able to move forward? It’s not like a player who consistently plays at AS or DS would “easily” accomplish that like some are suggesting it would be.

    I’m going to ask you one last time, please stop calling me Ryan. Grow up and have a little respect.

    Honestly, I enjoy seasons in madden. I hate madden gameplay in general but I like what they do with seasons. I do wish their matchmaking was a bit better in pairing people of similar skill + team but the tiers are nice which also come with decent rewards.

    As I mentioned elsewhere, RS rewards outside of WS are minimal yet we all stress over RS. Why we stressing to rank for rewards that, for 95% of us, are men? That's not necessarily true in madden.

    How would it be easier for a mid level player to be able to beat top level players once he’s reached the level their playing at? Or how about two players of the same skill playing each other to move on to the next level. How is that easier?
