    Listen op I checked out you game history and based on what I am seeing no way is this a type of hitting system that is play here. You my dude are just losing and in some case losing while being no hit. Doesn't really matter what hitting style they use if you can't get a hit.

    Something about this sounds more like

    "I am getting crushed online but I know I am so much better then everyone else all the time at everything so it can't possibly be me so It has to be this thing that I can't actually see is happening but I know 100% is what is causing me to lose cause it cant be me cause I'm.the best at everything"

    Doesn’t sound like that at all. He simply wants Online to be competitive without someone relying on the game to help them out…..it’s already bad enough with the high amount of RNG.

    Put directional with directional and zone with zone matchups. It’s really a simple suggestion.

    It does sound like that, all you have to do is look at his claims like not even elite players can hit .300 with every batter unless it's zone.

    Or are you agreeing with that?

    Go look at the game history, I don't care what hitting system is being used when you get no hit or 1 hit in a game you are not going to win

    Not everyone can play zone for a multitude of reasons. Accessibility is important.

    Then match them up with each other. What’s the wrong in that?

    Yep, here it is, the annual "I'm getting beat by guys using directional/timing/analog/RNG input methods"...

    Only one method allows you to hit pitches at the ankles or near the ears for a bomb on a consistant basis: zone.

    Use timing for 10 games and see how you do... I bet you won't get past the 3rd inning of your first game before reverting back; it sucks.

    This here. I use timing/directional almost exclusively. When I play online I switch to zone. It's the only mode where you can actually read a pitcher and take advantage of tendencies.

    On directional you can know his going to a fastball up and in, and time it well, and pop it up. With zone, you just put your cursor where he's been throwing the pitches, and boom home run.

    Im agreeing with his claim that directional takes no skill and those players rely on luck/RNG to get hits. With how much this game plays like a slot machine, a directional hitter can push a single button and if the numbers go his way, while his opponent using zone doesn’t get the lucky numbers as well, he can pull out a W with pure luck. He wants that changed, he didn’t come on here and brag about “being so much better” like the other guy was implying.

    ya i did because it takes 0 skill to compete online.

    bad seed..online competitve games shouldnt cater to those who cant play. They can play offline but if you have a competitive setting for an online game it needs to be even.

    On lower levels...which is all star til the last 3 division.

    the dragon. you can see who is and who isnt by swing feedback. If they are crushing pitches all over the zone they are def using timing only. And you cant really use power swing with zone due the decreased pci....ith a99 power guy you can just swing power and have no disadvantage. 0-2 sliders off plate are being pulled for home runs. its unrealistic and timing only is pure garbage. RBI is still available.

    This is one of the worst posts I have ever read. First off, if you are good with zone, you can use power swing to hit. Most people don't use power swing because normal swing is better but you can do it. You can hit anything in this game using zone if you are decent or better using your PCI and using directional puts you at a massive disadvantage in the game, especially if the person pitching knows how to pitch. You keep talking down to people for using directional and saying that people who can't use zone should be excluded and just play offline so that tells everyone about who you are but if you are losing to a directional player, sorry thats on you.

    Pitch better

    Ah yes, the classic. "Well if anyone says anything to the contrary, well they just use it".

    Good, though, cliche way to dismiss any dissent or proof otherwise.

    So everyone in here saying zone is the way to go are actually defending timing,/directional so they by doing that are actually using timing/directional instead of using zone even though they are promoting zone....makes sense

    thats not true. zone barely reaches off plate and that low in dirt. Hold up and power swing with timing. HR galore.

    I've got a great idea bud, and I'm sure you're correct. I just want to give you an opportunity to prove it for all of us, because naturally, we are all wrong.

    Fire up a stream real quick and use directional hitting. Go into a ranked game so we can all watch you dominate your opponent. Let us know when it's live and the stream name.

    Prove us wrong bud, I'm ready!

    ied bet most do...so if i pitch the corners over and over all 4 of them. timing only has advantage cuz that doesnt matter where pitch is. You follow? as a zone user if a pitcher is doing the same pitch over and over thats th pitchers fault for not mixing it up. or a slider at the back foot. its neaely hitting the batter and they are pulling it adnd keeping it fair. its a joke and not baseball
