    @Chrono_Omega_PSN I will admit that the game play is worse this year, but that has never happened to me. I have never lost a game I should have won based on player input. The RNG people are talking about is grossly overstated. It sure seems like people just aren’t as good as they think they are and need someone else to blame.

    I 100% believe this…Ever since I added the 99 Ted to my lineup I have been losing more games at a much higher rate than normal. I think adding him tipped me over to some increased level of Dynamic Difficulty that I am not good enough to overcome.

    I picture the other guy on some forum saying he almost lost to a lesser player because the game always favors the opponent and never has the person complaining ever been given a lucky break by the game.

    To the OP - Sorry you lost.

    I had back to back at bats online earlier today:
    Perfect perfect lineout to the second baseman.
    Followed by a late swing bloop...over the second baseman's head

    I imagine my opponent got mad at the second, ignoring that the first happened

    Like I have pictures of phenomenal pci placement and timing for weak flyouts yet the same pitch in the same spot for my opponent is a bomb. Like that makes 0 sense.

    I think it’s a ping thing, I noticed when I play World Series or higher rated players they have better internet usually and it’s easier to hit, but when I play lesser rated players the game feels underwater and weird things happen, I don’t know more competitive players set the game up differently or they use lan over WiFi of what not, but I don’t think people take this into consideration.

    Could be based on the attributes of the batters and pitchers in those scenarios.

    maybe this is the answer, the better statistics and overall, the worse the rng. I'm about to piece together a lineup of low diamond/gold's and test it in ranked.

    @BLAISEBLAISE_PSN I can only speak for myself but I have a God Squad…If I play another God squad it’s usually a fun & rewarding game experience. But when I get matched up against a Welfare/NMS team that’s made up of 3k quicksell players, It’s almost guaranteed that my balls don’t carry at all. EVERYTHING just dies at the track…Nomatter what I throw or where I’m throwing it, It’s almost a guarantee that their PCA will get a hit lol. Maybe I need to start asking the Welfare teams for friendly quits & just stick to playing God Squads.

    I thought I was the only one who noticed this. I always tell my friends, you gotta be careful against the “weak” teams, those are the ones who beat you with a lot of bs.
