Just...no.
What? No counter argument? Just a caveman answer of no?
As you get older you realize certain things arent worth arguing over...the sky is green...rain is actually aliens tears....directional is the more realistic batting input etc...

Think on it. Average swing rate is around 46% ( real baseball) last few years. Now using zone, how often are you swinging at pitches ? How many pitches in the strike zone are you swinging at? I would guess zone hitters swing at around 75% or higher of strike pitches.
I think that’s why people get mad at directional batters. Directional wait for THEIR PITCH to capitalize. They lay off pitches meant to induce poor results and they wait for the mistake pitch ( either by user input or the rng )
Food for though
Incorrect.
Just some "Food for though".

OK but you can't argue when I say the earth is flat.

Directional should be tweaked and then made the only form of hitting.

It provides a more nuanced approach to hitting and is just more fun. There’s a reason it was the only way to hit in the best baseball game of all time.

As older heads we grew up on using something similar to directional hitting. Can't fault anyone for using it. Its in the game

No I meant elaborate on how you would tweak it?

As your first act on this forum, you bumped a thread that was over two months old to respond to a joke, and then you overwrote part of that joke with your own response.
Color me impressed.

lol I wasn’t on tsn when this post was made, but this is one of the more absurd posts I’ve seen. Yea just hitting x and letting RNG take over the rest is definitely more realistic than aiming a pci
Also lol at directional hitters “waiting for their pitch” as if zone hitters don’t do the same. The difference is a zone hitter can actually rely on skill to hit anything in the strike zone, whereas a directional player only has control over timing and the rest is luck
