    I can get far now, but I always have the worst draft luck. a diamond round with 4 pitchers or 3 pitchers and Matt Chapman is suffering

    Man I've probably wasted about 10000 stubs just for the entry fee for this mode. Does anyone have any extra tips or advice? Ive stacked on LH/S hitters every time with only like silver pitchers. Each time ive managed to bring the score to about 9/10-15 but just cant finish it off. Closest i got was 13-15. Thanks

    This is why Showdown exists. To steal out stubs away.

    ROFL. You make stubs if you beat first boss challenge....wtf are you on about

    Yes, agreed. But it's also has something we've been asking for: an offline mode that finally incentivizes and rewards getting better at the game. *I don't count Moments Extreme. That was just an RNG time rape.

    Showdown's not perfect, and it still doesn't solve the problem of collections/cards not really mattering for offline-heavy users, but, at least for the moment, it does provide a competitive-ish mode for those that don't care to deal with the inherent H2H gameplay issues.

    That being said, if the hitting eventually migrates back to RNG The Show '19, disregard everything after the first sentence.

    If you complete the moments, you can earn all your stubs back and then some.. so it isn’t stealing. Also showdown is a “BR/draft style mode” for offline.. so it makes sense that there’s a fee, since there’s a fee to play BR?... And if you don’t like the fee. Don’t play showdown

    I'm not sure if it's the update...but I don't get many pitches to hit my last few tries. Could just be me though

    Exactly they pitch trash then paint the corners like crazy

    The miraculous diving plays by the CPU in this mode coupled with the high number of double play balls kills me. GIDP on more than a few perfect/perfect balls. Patience is definitely key, just frustrating with the weird play on the mode.

    Lol that's just not true. If you complete the showdowns every entry you actually make a few stubs, get some packs and it's a super easy path to the diamond FOTF player at 50 TA points. You don't have to do a single player exchange. They're not that hard either, people perceive them as hard because there's pressure of failure, but it's just veteran difficulty lol.

    lol it's not Veteran lol....They mess with the sliders lol.....Only pitch speeds are Veteran lol....

    It's easy bro just be elite at the game lol

    Cpu pitchers on veteran this year are very stingy with hittable pitches, and I am being kind.

    How about this. They make you pay 1000 stubs per RS game, and if you win you get 1200 back? If you lose you get nothing. I think that would be fair.

    We already have a online mode that charges stubs and you get nothing if you lose, it's called BR

    The 1:100 packs... So not really that much compensation. It's a good comparison. The way showdown gives packs + even a gold player at the end, it can't be free. Unless you want all the rewards nerfed and then what's the point?

    That's a pointless argument. Why can't I have the 91 Andrew Miller now? I paid for the game right? Why can't I have the prospect Adley card, I paid for the game.

    Yes it is, the Andrew Miller is locked behind me having to pay for BR. Why should I have to pay for a 0.001% chance I can go 12-0? I paid for the game!

    Since you ignored it, I'll post it here again "Yes it is, the Andrew Miller is locked behind me having to pay for BR. Why should I have to pay for a 0.001% chance I can go 12-0? I paid for the game!"

    Don't just parrot the same thing over again, if you can't counter it, just admit it, it's fine.
