We just need a mode that is about using the binder.
It's called Events.
Events were probably supposed to be the solution … and never fit the purpose (if intended). Events mostly supported the theme around the drops.

Not to mention Events have been anti-casual. The tracks were based solely on wins, and the matchmaking is terrible
Casuals are the people more likely to want to use non meta cards, so why have the mode supposedly for that be win or nothing?

Yeah, if Events is the answer to this problem, it's a really bad answer. It should be a mode that's available online and offline - and requires you to design interesting teams. The restrictions and themes in Events are never interesting, and allow use of way too many cards (like...every player with an odd number!)...or they just focus on using whatever the most recently-released collection was.

The captain system from last year atleast made people try different teams, the combination of theme team/speed or power was really fun last year.

At least 90% used the meta switch-hitting Rollins … that is not the answer. There will always be the meta-lineups. That is why creative ideas in new mode specifically for binder-usage is necessary … imo

I know @SaveFarris_PSN said "Events", and he's right. But at least for this cycle, Ranked is giving points for different card series. So... I will give a
for that. I need to get that Awards Tatis card. -

@YOSHI24_XBL thats because they had a switch hitting captain. Just add the system back but don’t have switch hitter captains is all.

@MarioMendoza935_XBL yeah, it's interesting that this at least pushes you to play online with other cards. I'd rather it be required to play that way, instead of just incentivized for the xp path, but it's a step in the right direction anyway.
Usually, I call Events "sweatin to the oldies" because it feels like only oldhead 800-plus players play it. But, I've been going on 9 and 10 game win streaks lately - all these mid players just playing it for the moonshot program.
Also, I don't know why they can't make the CPU play more like a human. That would really help offline modes.

Also I hate playing 9 inning games online - and almost never wanna do it. Three innings is fine. I got kids and lots of distractions - hate feeling glued to one game for an hour (especially with all the lag and jank of online games)
