Since hitting 800 in ranked I can't win. I'm currently on a 3 game losing streak and i feel like i haven't played to lose. My hits aren't being rewarded. Call it a skill issue or not. So, I didn't want to go to bed on 3 straight loses so I decide one more ranked game tonight. Well that was a huge mistake because instead of SDS Matching me up with someone else on a losing streak they match me up with a guy who is 5X flawless and currently 15-0 in ranked. He was beating me 12-6 in the 7th inning with the bases loaded so I decided to quit.
I legit thought I had a shot at world series, but I went from 842 to now 750 after my 4th loss.
I appreciate it SDS

Don’t give up man, that push from 800 to 900 is when you have to make sure you’re locked in before going into each game
What I’ve found to really help, I create custom sliders and crank up the fastball pitch speed as high as it will go.
Legend difficulty and then I load those sliders, go into custom practice, face Corbin Burnes and practice hitting. I choose to customize the practice to see only sinkers and cutters on the inside and outside part of the zone
Once my timing and PCI placement is somewhat consistent, I hop into ranked. That’s helped a ton
I know there’s some RNG randomness that happens. Ive encountered opponents bad swings being rewarded while I’m hitting balls right at fielders with exit velos of 100+. It happens
Keep grinding and good luck!

@Weshill627 Take a 100mg gummy before you start playing. You’re pressing too hard. You want it too much…This will make it so you’re chill and not pressing & don’t give an F. Then you’ll play better.

Hahaha back when I used to smoke, I actually agree with this. Sometimes you press too much and that throws you off
No more smoking for Doobie but I do focus on staying relaxed, sitting fastball and reacting to offspeed
23-2 in ranked and already flawless one time this year

Man I had the same experience tonight except in the 700s. I've never played online hof before. It's insane.
My opponent had 2 homeruns on balls out of the zone and the contact sounded weak. I just decided to hang it up.

Gummie? What ever happened to just roll up and spark up?

Edibles are great when you need to be discreet or are going to an event like a concert or game

If you want to give it another shot, try custom practice with the sliders/settings I posted above

3 game losing streak is nothing for this game dont hold your head dosn to lomg or it eill get worse every other day im on a 5 game win or loss streak in ranked alot of time 7-8 smh i really hate how scripted things seem sometimes like when its. A zero zero game in the 7 inning and you score 3 runs even if your throwing a no hitter its almost guaranteed your opponent scores next inning id bet more than 75% of the time
-
@b00std_mark_II had a game earlier, again in the 700s. The guy scored 1 run all game, go into the bottom of the 9th with me up 3-1 and I kid you not he hit 3 hrs back to back to back.
It feels so fake when stuff like that happen. I'm not accusing him of cheating or anything, obviously, he was terrible the entire game.
-
@doobiebross66-72 I just played another and hit a two run walk off after being tortured for 9 innings lol. I appreciate the encouragement!
-
@TheGoaler It’s to each his own…I prefer edibles because I can take one without smelling like weed & it lasts for 5-6 hours. But flower is a fine option as well, No doubt.
-
My brother, at least you can get there. Every year I looked at the ranked stuff and it scares me...I WANT to play online, and earn the additional program rewards etc...but I also don't wanna be demoralized either. I also know being beaten into submission online is part of the learning process too...I just, I dunno. Have trouble bringing myself to it because I'll likely get demolished
-
@IrishFist412 yes, I found in RTTS, and franchise or any mode, when I'm trying to hard, I cant hit. like yesterday, in RTTS, I kept trying and trying to hit, and I went 4 games in a row hitless, then this morning, when I wasn't trying, I hit 3 homers in 4 games.
-
I cant relate to y'all's rankings tho, my highest was 400

We're not serious right now right? We lost online and SDS matched you with someone in your ranking level?

Some people don't understand the sports phrase "you're never as good as your best day, but never as bad as your worst". Meaning good times roll, and bad times happen.
-
@Sarge1387 I just don't think people understand haha, if you play late night ranked, the absolute goons are out. This is like MLB the show 101.
-
Most of those goons are either done working for the day or simply just unemployed and stay up all night while sleeping all day because it’s the thing to do.

Same thing with events in the first couple days. I know my lane which is why I let everyone else speed by lol
