I wish there was a separate mode for those of use who aren't as competitive.

    I wish all my opponents would quit inRS and battle royale. I wish every swing was a 600+ ft homerun. I wish my pitchers would thrown 200 mph. I wish I got a diamond after every game I played on rookie. I wish I was given Trout just for booting up the game. I wish I could have an all 99 team on release day. I wish I didn't have to see other ppl complain for every [censored] little thing now. We are turning into snowflakes were we demand everything be given to us without any effort on our parts.

    A few extra attribute stats on cards from parallels are hardly a “humungous disadvantage.”

    it means u have more time to spend on the game=advantage

    Think that's what casual is for but sadly, you can't do much with it.

    I tried to have a nice relaxing game in casual a while back, hit a couple of dingers and my opponent dashboarded. So much for enjoying a full game online.

    The team doesn’t necessarily mean your opponent is better than you. Just focus on hitting your spots, playing good defense, and making good swings. You might be surprised at who you beat.

    If you can hit and dot better than me (not exactly a difficult task lol) then you will probably beat me 9 of 10 times even if I have the much better team.

    Does more playing time equal a better player? Perhaps, but I know someone who has played 247 RS games so far this year and is only 2 games above 500. I've only played 103 games and I'm 25 games above 500. Time does not necessarily equal better.

    I mean like no matter if it RS or Events. I'm facing lineups full of parallel 3 or better cards. I don't have time to sit in my gaming chair for 6-10 hours a day to play this game and grind until have card paralleled. Now I know BR is a more balanced mode as far as squad itself. But still I have to spend stubs to play that mode. I just want something where I can play against others online but I don't want to be at a humongous disadvantage because someone has a line up full of parallel 3 or better cards. While I only have 1 card at P2. I'm not gonna say that parallels ruined this game because it gives something players to grind for. But in the same breath I can see a huge disadvantage for players like myself who cant sit and play this game 6-12 hours a day.

    You can play online rated or casual but you are in the minority since most people want to play competitive with their God squads. You definitely do not need to play 6 hours a day nor have a gaming chair. Although maybe that's why my back always hurts.

    That will happen on any mode made for casuals, if there is no consequence for losing, people will easily quit, and if there is consequences, well it isn't very casual is it?

    Go into the customs leagues section and find a league with older guys who are out here to have fun and not take it seriously. There are tons of leagues with players just like yourself.

    I think Custom Leagues is absolutely perfect for this. The problem is, I've tried to run ones that don't have any sort of financial benefit to playing - and they always die out. I don't know anyone who has any free leagues that finish every season, if there is, I'm super proud of them for finding the right guys.

    It also happens in modes not made for casuals. That was my point and you missed it.

    I wish I was little bit taller
    I wish I was a baller
    I wish I had a girl who looked good
    I would call her
    I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
    And a six four Impala

    Well obviously it happens in any mode, that's not earth shattering news. you missed my point. My point was that how do you make a casual mode that is truly casual?

    Does Marcus Stroman come out to this? Away teams should definitely prank him when he pitches. Dude is so salty about his height he made a clothing brand to say he's not salty about his height.

    I recommend finding a good league or a good group of people to play games against, honestly. Its a lot of fun to take a step back from playing with a "win at all costs" mindset and just enjoying playing some baseball.

    I wish i could play in ranked (and get the 40 wins);

    Where - no pitcher had outlier and it was always at All Star difficulty.

    That'd pretty much just make the game fun for me.

    All this time I thought I may need a monitor to improve... but now I'm thinking I might need a gaming chair instead.
