Shows you got game?
Shows your skills are lame?
Shows you got some game (I certainly wouldn’t be able to make CS). However, could also show your opponent that you’re beatable.
First year playing and I’m a loooong ways away, so what do I know...
Does practically every single player who makes WS use the banner?
I would. It’s a hell of an achievement.
-
When I see WS banner: “Looks like my pitcher is gonna get rocked.”
When I see CS banner: “Gonna be tough, but I can win this.”
When I see DS banner: “I wouldn’t hang that up even if I had it, but congrats.”
When I see Wild Card banner: “I like my chances in this one.”

Lol where do you see it at? Wonder what I'm flying. I've never noticed the WS banner or any banner

Also, you’re own you can see in the top right corner where your stub total is in your DD menu

Have been as high as 890. Never could br8ng myself to fly the CS, but you have convinced me to fly the WC one

Flawless or bust for me. I make WS all seasons but it’s nothing to brag about for me. If I go 12-0 (which hasn’t happened yes this year, 3 times last year), you bet your behind I’m displaying that bad boy. Hardest achievement in the game outside top 50 IMo

I fly my Flawless banner. I haven’t even been able to make WS(850s is my best), but I am [censored] proud of that flawless run with the nonsense you have to overcome in a 12 game BR run!

Haven’t done either. IMO, Flawless is the greatest achievement in the game outside of top 50

Oh, you said this before I did. Guess it wasn’t “IMO”!lol. It needs repeating though, 12-0 Is a top achievement

No one should be ashamed of any level they reside in.
Anyone that tells you any different is an elitist [censored].
Luckily, it seems like the community has been better this year and more helpful to everyone regardless of skill. I’ve noticed a lot of people on here genuinely answering questions and taking the time for other people.
The Show and Diamond Dynasty are hands down the best “Team building” game there is. SDS is also as good as it gets at giving back. Compare them to 2k and it’s comical how shady 2k is.
Been really glad to be a part of this community for the last few years.

I flex my "Spring Training" banner, as then my opponent will have very low expectations... which I sometimes exceed.
-
What about an opposite flex putting up a lower banner than your level to make your opponent think you aren’t as good? Some psych ops.

Great minds...

I rocked my CS banner for a few days the first time I ever made it because I was proud as hell. Same thing for the first and only time I made WS- rocked it for like a week and then decided it was cheesy.
Fly whatever banner you like, screw the haters.

Can you help me understand the difference with 2K? I’m genuinely asking because I never played any “team building” game until this game came out; so I’ve been giving 2K a thought. Can you tell me what it’s like compared to this game?

You do you, I haven’t got past CS this year either. I’m rocking the mint condition nameplate for now. Looks clean.

That might work until your win/loss record shows on screen. But if your opponent hist x as soon as the game starts and skips by it, then your in business!

Theoretically that doesn't have to mean anything either. Let's say hypothetically I'm a sweat boy who only cares about his record, and I am an above average player. I start playing RS for the first time when the majority is already in CS/WS for season 1 and I just go to town on people in the lower divisions. I play until I reach 700. Then I stop playing because I might run into some competition, but I do have the WC banner. Next season I drop back down, I play just enough games to not go over 700, OR, I don't play at all which will drop me even lower next season. Then I'll start playing again in the lower levels until 700 or so. Rinse and repeat for 6 or 7 months, and I could theoretically have a record of 100-0. But I'll probably lose some games for whatever reason so for the sake of hypothesis, let's say the record will be 80-5 That's a pretty scary sight, isn't it? Despite me not facing any 700+ competition all year.
Moral of the story; record don't mean a thing.

A banner can say a lot. Most WS players dont use their WS banner for example. Most people who use the WS banner are just glad they ever made WS. Now hanging a CS banner? That is either a good WS player trying to throw off their opponent, or someone thankful that they only made it to CS.
