My first ranked season game
-
I usually play RTTS, MTO, moments and conquest. Tonight I got bored after creating a RTTS catcher and taking him to the the show in just a couple of hours. I have never liked playing online because cheesers and guys that disconnect make games unbearable. I lost games in BR and Events. No big deal, I'm mediocre at best.
After seeing, on ranked seasons, that I could get decent cards just by playing innings, I figured , why not? I got a guy with a slightly offensive, racist name and won.
I really don't care whether I win or lose, but this guy kept bunting. I think he was successful twice, but he kept bunting. I successfully double played both of his bunt hits that, of course, he followed up with more bunts. Over the course of the game I bunted once. That was to move my player at second to third. Bunting is part of the game, but, come on! IRL no one is going to try bunting with two strikes or two outs.
I know some of you will say "learn to deal with it." I did. It was easy. Pitch high and inside to induce pop ups and be ready with your IF for the toss to first. Randy Johnson had as many assists as strike outs.
I like the rewards, so I'm going to do my 500? innings, but like conquest maps, as soon as they're done, so am I. Until the next season at least. I don't even care about my rank.
Hit 5 HRs off of me, but make it a fun game at least.

That may work against bunt cheesers SOMETIMES, but SDS actively rewards cheaters, and also ensures their preferred players get significantly easier matchups to keep them happy and spending real world money on their glitchy game. I am only doing ranked games until I complete the remaining programs I have and then I will never play an online game ever again.
It's a terrible experience online and I won't reward SDS with even one penny of money. Thank God I skipped the show 22.

Right now, you only need 250 innings for the "big" rewards, so just keep grinding...

Its the twilight zone ( Ranked Season ), approach it as so. Boldly go where no baseball rules or etiquette exist. Bring Doritos or ham for there is limitless cheese to go around.Live long and fester.
