    Not the first time he has bragged about tanking.

    Just glancing at his history.

    He was 7-6 in the games previous to tanking.
    Looks like he quit out of 15 consecutive games to get back down to the level he wanted.
    He then proceeded to go 15-2.

    It's pretty obvious that he does not want to play .500 baseball or even slightly better than that. He wants to dominate.

    Let me guess… they were wearing Cubs jerseys so they had to be living in Chicago 😂

    For real, what’s the Chicago thing? Because I live in Virginia and used to primarily only see east coast logos, names and of late I get these days where every game I play is a team that has Chicago in their name.

    Fix the matchmaking/servers where I am not seeing 120 mph pitches and I'll be more than happy to stay at that level. I mean my overall record in HOF and legend games is pretty good too. Not to hard to outsmart most of you when it comes to baseball even though I can't read or react to the fastball.

    Until these are fixed, I will do what I need to do in order to have fun. Faced Crochet and his warping 120 mph fastball 3 times yesterday. Quit the game and went to play PUBG. Wasn't I winning that last game I quit out of? Don't see you mentioning that.

    Geno - Yea because no puts the city they live in their team name or abbreviation.

    You geniuses do know the purpose of this thread was if I am having trouble hitting with the warping pitch speeds even on all star do they really think casuals will continue to play that deal with the same thing.

    What are your thoughts about "pub stomping" because that's what you're doing when you quit 15 games to play those guys. I've always had your back when it came to SDS, but I can't get behind you knowing this is how you get down.

    As a former pro player don't you want to compete? Pub stomping isn't competing or even honing your skills. If anything you're putting yourself at a disadvantage to compete when constantly going back and forth between divisions and their different pitch speeds.

    I would love to compete but striking out 15-20 times because you physically can't react to the laggy pitch speeds isn't fun. I would love to play some of the top people. Fix the matchmaking/servers and I will gladly play into the 1,000's.

    In all fairness I don't use my A squad and pitch people like Harvey, Oswalt, Feller, etc. When the programs come out I also try to do missions. If I have a daily to do say Twins SP innings and only have silver, gold pitchers, I will still use them. If I really wanted to Pub stomp, I would be using Trout, Ortiz, Chipper, etc at those levels. I typically don't put them in until around 675 or so. Probably won't even do that this time since missions came out.

    Whose whiny? Me because you don't understand the issue? I am just bringing up a serious flaw that has been in the game for years. I don't care about wins and losses or my RS record. Should I talk about the sinker rising out of the hand instead? Would that be cool to you? I tend to believe most serious flaws in the game are connection related. It all makes too much sense to not be connection related. Why do east coast streamers rarely see these flaws?

    No one cares if you go play another game. Literally no one.

    You make assumptions and state them like they’re facts.

    You tank so you can play easier opponents.

    Not to mention saying the same assumptions over and over again. Everyone is playing the same game. Has nothing to do with where you’re located. I’m on the west coast and see the same issues. But I don’t blame it on other people, tank, or say its based off someone’s location just because of a team name. Are you that ignorant to really think people are only fans of their local team?

    I am aware no one cares if I play PUBG. Where did I say people care whether I play? I want to enjoy a good baseball experience. 120 mph fastballs do not make a good experience.

    Where have I stated facts? I have opinions on game play based on research and what I have seen.

    I tank so I can make contact with the ball and have an enjoyable experience. Once again, striking out 15-20 times isn't fun. Maybe it is for you.

    So I'm the ignorant one? Got ya!

    Let's look at one of the definitions of that word:

    "having a complaining tone."

    Have you read your own posts on this forum for the last 3 years or so?

    So after tanking, I played 3 games in all star last night and all 3 were against Crochet. Laggy, warping pitch speeds were in all 3. Ended up quitting in the 3rd game and went to play PUBG.
    Now, I am a 3 time ws player and a former pro player so I know the game of baseball really well. I am not elite (maybe someday if I move to Florida or New Jersey) but I am a pretty good player. If I am having trouble with these warping pitch speeds I can only imagine how much trouble the people that can't get out of all star are having. Even if the pitches aren't warping, most are not good enough to hit these flame throwers. I can only imagine that will lead them to quit and quite possibly cost SDS stub money. Combining pitchers like Kopech, Crochet and Cabrera with laggy [censored] online pitching is not a good recipe for casuals.

    We get it already. But hey keep beating that dead horse if it makes you feel better 🥴

    But does SDS get it? We don't know because they don't acknowledge. So he must keep posting it. Maybe if they would make the slightest effort to acknowledge their customers he could finally be at peace and you could spend less of your time breathlessly making excuses for SDS. Just think how great that would be for all of us!!!

    “Breathlessly making excuses for SDS”?? Lol!
    When the hell have I done that? I’ve said many times on here and Reddit that it’s ridiculous that the game is over 2 months old and has had no meaningful game play patch. You must have me confused with some other SDS White Knight 🥴

    He can’t probably read pitches out of the hand to know how broken Cabrera’s sinker is and how bad it is to be very late even when you sell out.

    I agree with the connection issues, I live in the east coast and whenever I face a team named NY, NJ, MIA, PHI it feels almost like if it was against the cpu, very low latency.

    I’ve said this before, Dragon Ball Fighterz let you select if you want to queue up against strong connections or “any”, at the expense of the time you spend looking for a match. I wish we could customize our matchmaking here too
