I played a guy earlier today who had a scrub team, then subbed in 5 of the best hitters after the first inning. Is he taking advantage of this?

I've lost 4 of my last 5 ranked games. In three of those games I had at least 12 outs on 13+ PCI ratings while my opponent dink and dunked me the whole game. Lineout after lineout the whole time. What's the point of having good PCI placement and timing if I'm not rewarded for it?? I guess it's time to start purposefully swinging late and missing the PCI, because that seems to get the most results.

Your team is not being nerfed...
How do you know? It sure feels like it. Like I said, my PCI results are usually better than my opponents. They're getting lucky hits on 10/11 PCI... Oh BTW, Perfect FLYBALL with Mantle, died on the warning track.

This game legit just has a way of bringing you down to your knees. There are times I can’t buy a win, and there is times I can’t be beat. All within the same week. The advice here is good. When you’re losing and can’t get anything going, turn it off.

I was at a meeting today with SDS and they said they were nerfing you bro. They also had donuts.

@QNEEK i should know this but where do ya’ll find your PCI #’s at? In batter analysis right? Is it only viewable at the end of the game? I looked for it before but couldn’t find it
Batter Analysis - filter by results (ie. Hit, out, pci results, etc.)
I think it's PCI results, that show contact results 1-15+P (perfect).
I haven't looked during games, just post game. -

Why is your team chosen to be nerfed? Is it because you made this post and SDS is punishing you? When you win games is the other team being nerfed? What’s the algorithm that chooses who’s team should be nerfed in a game?

Honestly, i think it goes back to how I "thought" the rating mod worked. Now that I have a super team, if I match up with someone that has weaker players, that algorithm tries to close that gap.

Well make use of all the glitchy silver and gold players and try your luck. Sounds like you dont have much to lose.
Me trying to get someone else to test it so i dont.

No, he's tired of people offering friendly quits. I did it a lot to start the year, as I completed LS collections on week one and no one would play me.

I have tried. And gameplay feels much better, with my weak team... GET WOKE.

I don't think my team is nerfed but I'm up against way better players in the RS. I'm in the low 600's going against top guys.

I stacked up my "B team" squad, and matched up with a guy who had a WS banner. We were both like 580. He also had a scrub team. It felt like the first LEGIT game I've played in a while.
-
Nah man I usually have a lower rated team than most people I match up with and I still get blooped to death and my good PCI swings go nowhere. It’s All-Star hell for a reason.
-
Even if Rating Mod was turned back on this year, it would only impact matchups and NOT gameplay success. By that logic you could just make your team worse and you'll make it to WS
