Devin Kirby SDS you removed the knuckleball
-
SDS were you gonna tell us ???
-
I see a lot of people still 800+ stub orders in for this 51 overall card! They are in for a big surprise when they pay that much and then realize he doesn't have the KN!
-
That's funny... I squeaked in a few event games this morning before work, and all three threw knuckleballers against me; two used Waldron, who wasn't that bad, but that Kirby knuckleball was a lot tougher to deal with.
Not sure why it was taken away... you can run wild on people who use them, but, whatever.
-
They took it away because some streamers didn’t like it. Too bad.
-
Pathetic. Does the guy throw a knuckleball or not?
-
I’ve never heard of this player.
-
Yes he does...

So yeah he should have a knuckleball in game. I wasn't one of them, but I feel bad for those that invested in him. They were smart and then got penalized for being smart.
-
@The_Joneser_PSN agreed he wasn’t hard to hit just a timing adjustment. Can’t have fun in this game
-
@Lhubison58_MLBTS of course they did . But they could have given us an update instead of doing it secretly .

Does any of that surprise you? Why should they tell us they are removing a legit pitch from the game because lil man and your friend Kyle say it’s a glitch and toxic. It’s baseball and can be countered with a brain.
-
I faced Kirby once a few days ago in the event. It was hilariously bad... For me.
-
Why is the solution from streamers and SDS always to remove the things they don’t like rather than fixing the problems with those things?
-
There wasn’t a problem with him. He was off meta and they don’t want to adjust. Just ban.
-
@Lhubison58_MLBTS The complaint seems to be that the knuckleball was slower than intended. Waldron had a similar problem earlier in the year and they adjusted it. Removing the pitch entirely is lazy and wrong.
-
I wish SDS was as respondent to our complaints when they shaft us in DQ as they are to slow knuckleball complaints.

Im sure this is an unpopular opinion in the greater community, but streamers are what ruined this game. Back before them, ranked play was awesome. There was a general variety to teams, there was no such thing as META, and each individual had to figure out best methods of playing on their own. Sure, there was the occasional cheeser, but it was rare. Now, as soon as the streamers show glitches, cheesy gameplay, hacks, and META, all the plebes follow suit and competition tanked.

People are sheep.

@SavageSteve_MLBTS Even worse, SDS only seems to listen to these streamers who, in my opinion, mostly have bad ideas.

I had trouble with Waldron until I followed the advice that someone posted here:
“If it’s low, let it go. If it’s high, let it fly”
Got a ton easier to hit once I followed this strategy!
