Future Stars Showdown
-
Is it just me or are Showdowns extremely hard? Last two especially.
-
I’m 0-2 this morning on Future Stars. Perfect/perfect lineouts. Good timing with PCI barely under the ball infield pop ups. There’s no way it’s actually Veteran difficulty.
-
I failed on Ben Joyce my first try. But I think that was because I only saw like 22 pitches and not many were strikes lol
Breezed through it on my 2nd run though
-
Took me a dozen tries, Grayson Rodriguez was my daddy. Major feeling of accomplishment when i completed it.

The first 3 showdowns are the hardest but if you know the strategy of baseball you should be able to complete them easily.. it's not about hitting homeruns. Learn how to play station to station these showdowns are easy.

I feel like every one has 1 or 2 that are tough but there are some tips to succeed.
For starters I hope nobody worries about actually filling proper positions it means nothing.
Make sure your lineup isn't unbalanced with too many right or left handed hitters since we can't preview pitchers. As you draft new players keep balancing so in the later showdown challenges you can set the best line up when you see the pitcher you are gonna face.The highest rated with most power isn't always the best. Good vision and decent speed is way more important.
When you first start substitute the scrubs on your bench with the highest speed guys you can. You should be able to add a few between 78 and 88 if you're lucky they'll be one in the 90s. They are great for pinch running when you need that run scored from 2nd. As you improve your team always keep at least 2 high speed guys on the bench you'll almost never need a pinch hitter so just keep 1 or 2 tops.
Always take these 3 perks in any order if you can. Eagle Eye, Hero Time, and Rally Time. From silver to diamond as you upgrade.
The above works for me in all showdowns and I've had a pretty easy go with them this year. Hope it helps.

@Ledfoot_19_PSN That is a wonderful list just perfect you seemingly covered it all at least that’s the way I see it. Those are solid right there mang

Finished it in my 3rd try. The 1st guy I faced. I just drained his energy. Stack lineup with lefties even if they are just bronze or commons. It helped me.
It gets easier the further you make it. You face all righties till the end.

Grayson Rodriquez. 3rd pitcher. Can’t beat him.
-
Done. Thanks for the help all. You were all right, super easy after Grayson. Never had a showdown get easier the farther you went. It literally peaked and got super easy to the end.
