New Showdowns

2nd showdown is vs Tom Glavine, needing only 3 runs and 15 outs. I forgot to check if it's veteran or all-star. But regardless that's easy. Also you start with a guy on 2nd.

One thing i noted right away, most of the hitting ones you start with a guy on base. I will agree they are generally easier and faster. I'm working through NL right now. One of the 2nd tier ones for example was to score 3 runs in 3 innings...but they start you with bases loaded in the 1st. I hit a single and then a HR and was done...easy peasy. But even without the HR I could have manufactured at least 2. The toughest was the 1st one so far, scoring I think 2 runs off Sixto Sanchez. There was a moment against the Brewers where you needed 3 hits AND 3 strikeouts, so one side of the ball wasn't a complete waste of time.
Also worth noting, you get 2 diamonds right off the bat instead of 1...which is generally nice. I went Yelich and Rollins
This as well is a huge help! And even the second boss is on Veteran...

mine was vs CP Smoltz- score 3 runs on 15 outs and a runner on second to begin

This is great news, I am sure I will still fail and struggle, but that is more about me sucking.

Can you only do the new showdowns for points once you’re at 70 from stage 1?

I think so
-
I suspect you can do them regardless, but the vibe I got is you can only use the vouchers once you get to stage 2.
-
Yeah you can only put them towards 2nd stage. If you look at Reds for example stage 1 says NL Central Showdown but stage 2 just says NL Showdown
-
Its really worth playing every stage of showdown now, solely bc of the XP you get

Wait so Stage 2 doesn't have them for each division like Stage 1?

Only XP is lower a bit,stubs and difficulty is the same

They took away like 7k XP...but you still get 16k.
Thank you cry babies for the easy showdowns lol
-
I must be terrible at this. All the way to the second boss and haven't won a blue mission yet.
-
I made it to the final boss but man did I struggle (and fail) against Brusdar Graterol. Constantly late on his 99 mph sinkers and making weak contact on everything else.

Lollll showdown is all on veteran now
