Showdown is not a broken mess. It's also pretty easy. Just because you can't win every time doesn't mean its broken
I haven't lost a showdown in more than a month but it still cheats.If you can't see that you are blind
If that's true, then why this thread? With all due respect, I don't think I agree with any of your arguments.
I do have some legitimate advice for you though, coming from my years of experience playing (and winning) BR:
The first 2 positions you look to draft are the shortstop and the catcher position. It's harder to find quality bats at those two positions compared to the rest of the positions. Having a common catcher throughout the showdown is your own fault, a result of bad draft decisions.Edit:
I'll give you an example:
In a silver round the following guys are available:
Joc Pederson, Roberto Perez, Rhys Hoskins, Miguel Sano.I guarantee you 80% of the players would pick one of the 3 sluggers in this sequence and completely ignore Roberto Perez. That's a mistake, because the chances that a decent catcher will show up in your draft while playing the showdown are significantly smaller than some big bat LF/3B/1B. Learn from this.
That may be true in a vacuum but most missions are so short and/or offensively-based that you can put a position player in at C or hit him 8 and PH so Perez is usually suboptimal
Not to OP apparently, since he specifically mentioned the frustration of having to go through the showdown with a common catcher.

Meh, I just put one of my regular hitters at catcher. They catch anything in the zone. Keep the common catcher on the bench in case u need a defensive replacement. Draft power, as you get contact perks. Down the middle perk boost is best one outside of the losing perks as on veteran u get 1-2 meatballs an at bat. Showdown is fun, no changes needed outside of the changes needed for all hitting and fielding in all modes

Honestly, they can’t possibly dumb these down any more than they just did

It really went from
"Holy crackers I can't even get past the second boss half the time"
to
"Holy crackers I can't imagine a world where I fail a showdown" -

The divisional showdowns were perfect imo

I hate posts like this. They take away credibility when someone posts about serious problems with the mode.
-
Showdown is the only place where I hit into 3 double plays with perfect perfect hits lmao

I grounded into a triple play the last showdown I played. I beat it fortunately. But it did feel like things were happening beyond my control to add suspense. I dont know it still is a fun mode in my opinion. At least as a change of pace. I especially like the Extreme and TA4 showdowns bc you dont have to pitch. I still need to do extreme conquest, but can't motivate myself to play the CPU that many games
