    Switch between strike zone 1, 2 and high during the game. Making camera ajustements depending of the pitcher is crucial. At least for me it is.

    It doesn’t matter what you do. Pci placement and swing time mean nothing. Rng decides if you get a hit

    Are you Alex Rogan? Just turn off the inner PCI and reach out with your feelings. Haven't you ever bullseyed womp rats in your T-16?

    If you’re always dropping, I’d recommend setting your pci just below the top of the strike zone and don’t snap it when the pitch is almost there. Try to move it gradually with the ball cuz if you can keep from flicking it, you should be able to get pieces of it and foul off more pitches and also square up more cuz ya rarely get a good hit if the pitch is out of the zone. Also, practice on legend and repeat play with an 0-2 count. Usually the pitcher is going to throw you a tough pitch or a ball in the dirt and it should help you start to notice those pitches and layoff them. Also, repeat play a 3-0 count and only swing at meatballs down the middle, trying to layoff anything on the corners. Hope this helps you out. It seemed to help me.

    Play a lot of cotw. Allows you to get a ton of reps in, which helps plate discipline and pci placement

    It’s an extension to the analog sticks basically. Allows me to have a lot more control over the pci. Most top players use em. They’re generally around $15

    If his problem is moving the pci down, he doesn’t have great control over the pci. Making the pci even more sensitive is probably only going to increase his problems, not help them.

    Control freaks allow you to more accurately place the pci wdym lol. I had problems dropping my pci before using them. That’s their purpose.

    Actually, from their website it says their purpose is to help make smaller, more precise in game movements. Good players use them because they have excellent pci control and benefit from even more precise input. OP has said he isn’t a very good player, so I would assume it’s safe to say he has poor pci placement and control and would not benefit from the increased sensitivity. By all means, go ahead and try them out, if they help, awesome. But from what I’m gathering it’s only going to throw fuel on his fire.

    “Help make smaller, more precise in game movements” ... exactly what’s needed for good pci placement. It’s hard to not flick the pci without control freaks. With control freaks, it’s easier to get more precise placement, despite skill.
