How good are you really in ranked??
-
I almost got to 600. Was at 595 and I gave up 3 in extras to loose
-
I'm 65-38 or something like that. I am terrible at hitting once I get above All-Star difficultly, but can still pitch well at higher levels so once in a while I'll luck in to a win on HOF. It's nice this year with the rewards being attainable without having to win so basically once I get above all star I just don't stress too much about getting smoked.
-
2nd year I’m 10 above 500, but I’m 9-1 in my last 10 since switching to PCI from meter. I always heard it was worth it but was afraid of the change…..well I was wrong. Don’t tell my wife
-
I’ll tell you a secret. Anyone with a record that good picks a chooses when they play to boost there record and look better than they are. For example the last week of the season when everyone who’s comp has already hit WS the 60-8 crew is out. I’m 19-1…I haven’t played a good player all year outside BR or Events lol.
I’d wager anyone with a 80-90% win rate in RS and less than 80 games has about a 50-60% win rate in events when you play random people good or bad, and not just hand picked opponents stuck in between 500-700 with a week left in the season.
Ego lifting at its finest. Just ask yourself why someone who is 45-5 wouldn’t want to actually make WS every season (way more games needed) and cash in on 150,000 stubs. They stop before they get there so the record stats intact.
-
I’m always a little more concerned in any level when I see someone who has a lot of games and it’s around .700 winning percentage. There’s some out there and they tend to be the pure grinders and game players that usually are the toughest to play.

Honestly... I'm pretty sure I'm... not all that great. In my defense, I am pretty much BRAND NEW to the whole playing online thing. I have wanted to play online for a couple of years now... but for whatever reason, I just couldn't bring myself to actually do it. At least, until recently. I think I did reasonably OK while I was in the Spring Training division. After I picked up a few wins, and bumped up to Regular Season though, the fact that I'd let myself get good and comfortable playing RTTS at Veteran has kind of caught up with me, and I have had me some troubles at the plate.
And now that I'm like one win away from being bumped up to All Star, (really, I'm right THERE on the cusp)... I have a feeling that situation is only gonna get worse.
Maybe it's for the best that one win has been slow in coming.
My own fault. I've spent so much time playing at Veteran because it's challenging enough... but I can still be great, and therefore it stayed fun for me. Plus, like I said, I never really played online, so I didn't think it mattered what I did.
But now that I have found my way into ranked seasons... that's all changed. So I guess my big goal now is to try and get better.
-
AS im probably a .650/.700 player.
HoF - No, i dont enjoy it. Anytime i play on it i am lucky to get 5 hits, just not interested.
Im super casual gamer. Want to have fun. HoF is not fun to me.
-
I’m 139-109, can’t hit but somehow lucked into more wins than losses and that is having all the best cards since the beginning of the year. I’d hate to see my record without them
-
I’m not that good at hitting. Pitching I’m descent played 2 games on hall of fame too many strikeouts. I struck him out 23 with alcantara he got me 13 with burnes I won the game but it wasn’t fun lost 1-0 also with 1 bloop hit and a walk against mussina he had a bloop dribbler up the middle and home run by posada. I basically played to get to the 300 innings

A lot of people take it very seriously. Only use god squads, offer friendly quits if their opponent has a good record, play the bare minimum of games to get rewards then wait til the season resets to play easier people. It seems like this game people care about their records way more than other games I’ve played.
I’m 50-11, and can say I honestly never offer friendlys. I’ve accepted a few here and there but I’d say 80% of the time I’m offered one. I am a person who plays limited games to get to ws. My reasoning mainly is I rarely can just chill for 45 mins and play a ranked game. I like my breaks to where i can play mlb to be 20 mins. So I’ll play events a lot or br. I never played FIFA and 2k is mostly my player, but madden if I recall was a lot more team overral that linked match making? Aka you play with a 90 you Match someone 85-95 not ranking.
i agree mate - i will never offer friendies - i don't play a ton so i punish the lower levels - i'm 12-1 this year, last year was a great record too , since 17 i rake

No... team overall has nothing to do with matchmaking in Madden.

I’m 37-25, I’ve only really played one season to get 300 innings and a few games here and there. I have not enjoyed the online game this year which makes me question whether I’ll buy the game next year. I’ve enjoyed mini seasons but it gets repetitive.
-
I hardly play ranked anymore. Events and BR are just a alot more fun imo. I'm capable of making world series but playing more than like 5-6 ranked games a season is just a drag. I think my record is like 17-5 or something of the sort, almost all of that being played in like may
-
I’m 76-73 in ranked. I suck and use the best team possible I’m pretty sure I’d have a worse record if it wasn’t for them lol.
This is my 1st MLB game and I’m just now starting to use and get the hang of pin point pitching. I just need to force my self to get the hang of zone hitting but I’m TERRIBLE at hitting. My strong point is definitely pitching I’m lucky to score 2+ runs a game lol

This can be true for some, but for example I’m 59-8. I make WS every season, usually about halfway into the season, sell the card and then I move onto other modes to complete programs cause I personally don’t find legend ranked enjoyable. I went undefeated the first and third seasons, but usually I just play the 10-12 games or whatever to get to 900 and then wait till the season is over. Although I am like 5-2 on legend, it’s not fun to me to have to caffeinate and lock in to hit on legend on an old gen console.

My bad I remembered super bowl games you’d play someone in theirs or whatever but it’s been since idk 2016-2017 since I played. Sold my team and mike Vick for 100 and then the game and never will go back. Ppl here complain about the market here oh boy I don’t miss sniping the madden market

This games market is so far superior to any of the other sports games. Sniping cards in those games is literally a full time job lmao

Working the market in Madden is definitely a lot more difficult than The Show and it's due to fierce competition for coins. It gets harder every year and last year was very difficult. I used to snipe, but now I just buy up stuff during market crashes and re-sell the next day for profit, and that seemed to work well last year for me. Working the market here is like basically a Stub printer if you have the time to do it. I've been flipping the same 2 cards for 2k-3k per flip for 3 weeks and they still work today.
The matchmaking in Madden is all based on ELO now and not sure when it changed, but I've been matched with all bronze, silver teams and matched with top 100 players in the same day, so it's definitely all over the place. The matchmaking here is 100% better to find even matches, but this game is so random... does it even matter anymore? I'm pretty good at Madden, but no matter how much I play this game I'm not very good at it. Last year I was just above .500 and this year with more practice I'm below .500 so hopefully I can get it going before I switch back over for the year.

That's by design though... EA doesn't want you to make free coins, so every year they make subtle changes to the market to make it more difficult. They actually started banning people if they do it enough to catch them. SDS just isn't at that level of greed yet... hopefully it stays that way, but it's hard for companies to ignore that EA has made over a billion dollars each of the last 2 years on microtransactions alone. Every company wants that kind of revenue.

Really depends on which beer I'm on. I think my record is 149 - 127 or something. Nothing special. I don't tank or wait for reset. Constantly bouncing between 500 - 700.
