    Is pretty funny how some of you guys keep complaining about hitting and pitching but funny enough I keep seeing the same top players for years straight be great and the bad players be bad.

    So if the game is so inconsistent and doesn’t reward good input... why don’t we see the top players losing more? The top players in online franchise from 2017 are still the top players now. Devs must be doing something right.

    Pretty comical.

    2 questions :

    1. So if the top let’s say 10,000 love the way the game is and the rest of the 900,000 or so have serious issues , we should just leave everything how it is to cater to the 1% because “they are the top players ?

    2. Does Posting this mean the “top guys” now tap the back of your head when they are about to finish ?

    And yet the top players "spoiler: not you" are complaining about the hitting as well. What's the point of your post?

    Maybe cuz the best players have nothing better to do than spend $1,000 dollars. Hellen Keller could reach WS using guys like a mantle and Sheffield right now

    Doubt it. I’ve played some semi god squads and shut them out or they quit by the 5 th inning. And I’m average, I’m an awful hitter.

    Dude, are you dense? Hitting was never the issue, which is what they patched. The issues are pitch location and fielding, which somehow never got touched. Those are the issues.

    No, that was my point. If they can’t beat me in the lower tiers, then. They sure ain’t getting to WS

    Btw top players have a combo of these things

    Access to better cards
    Access to better internet
    Access to better monitor
    Access to time to play the game
    Skill

    It’s the combo of those things if you are top at ALL of those you are probably a top player the more of those things you have in abdundance the better you are. The fewer the worse

    Because the issues are always exaggerated.

    -Note, I'm not saying there are not issues, there are plenty-

    But the catchy buzz words like "Input doesn't matter" "Good input isn't rewarded" is an exaggeration. They do matter, not enough imo, but they do matter.

    I'm not happy with how the game is, but I wish we would move past exaggerations and buzzwords.
