Here is what doesn't change. A guy who swings at everything and can't identify a pitch gets to compete game in and game out.

Then don't throw him strikes. Make him swing at those pitches outside of the zone and if he lays off, he's making you throw strikes or you might issue walks instead. Plate discipline really goes a long way to get hittable pitches imo if you're pitching effectively.
-
You didn't understand what I wrote. It has nothing to do with pitching. It's that I can strike a guy out 12 times in 5 innings and then suddenly this guy who couldn't hit or identify a pitch is suddenly check swinging and roping the ball everywhere until he's back in it. Then he's back to looking like garbage.
I'm tired of jumping thru hoops to put people away. We're going to make your diamond shield shortstop bobble a ball with 2 outs. Then Trout is going to drop a fly ball to allow the man on 1st to score and allow the tying run on 3rd. Now get the win....
That's basically this game in a nutshell
-
Yea pretty much every game I win is due to me being superior, getting 15 perfect perfect swings. Every game I lose is due to my 15 perfect perfect swings resulting in quadruple plays and my opponent getting all their weak/okay swings falling.
Literally nobody can beat me other than the game being rigged against me.

When being late slightly jammed is more productive than being perfect perfect or good good, there is something terribly wrong. I also have noticed that when you play a team of all silvers that perfect perfect and good good are never hits. Meanwhile the silver team's continually bad input is rewarded with several early ok and late slightly jammed hits. I think that at this point the worse team you have and the worse you play, the better you'll do, because they've programmed it to favor "new" players.
That’s baseball, baby. It’s frustrating 100% but you gotta take the tinfoil hat off and think probability. If you play poker and your AA gets busted by a noob with 2-9, are you going to accuse the dealer of favoring noobs?
That's a bad analogy.
True, dealers deal cards and have no control over the outcome of cards being played; however, SDS has complete control over gameplay features and ability to fix problems with the game, no matter what the issue might be.
You’re missing the point. Variance balances over time.
This is correct in to a certain extent. If the variables are constantly manipulated or , for the sake of argument, the algorithm is flawed you won't reach true variance.

I win against better players the same way worse players beat me. It goes both ways. I win games all the time I shouldn't just because the game thinks I should. I can admit it. You can't. I just want to win fair and square. Don't reward my bad PCI placement because I'm not as good as my opponent. I play online to compete. Not get handed things
-
I'll admit when I lose fair and square, which is never. I am the best.

This years installment has the most disregard of user input that I can recall.

Ok pal. I can’t deal with your ineptitude to see the point. I would attempt to explain why the analogy is appropriate but I fear it won’t do much good and will save the keystrokes.

And the cultish fools attack the OP because their low skill is rewarded.
The post makes no sense the game rewards people w/ worse teams? Come on now the game has problems but this isn’t one of them lol
Try it out. Play 5 games woth silver amd gold hitters. And 5 games with diamonds. See how many more very late hits you get. See how often youre opponent hits directly too you on perfect hits. Im not saying my opinion. But ive done this. Do it and see. Whenever you have time if ever. Because it changed my opinion.

There is nothing you can say to turn a bad analogy into being appropriate.....it's just plain bad.....try a different angle.

This was literally my last ranked season game. I had Roy Oswalt on the mound cruising through 6 innings and with 9 strikeouts. Guy could not hit water if he fell of a boat. Oswalt confidence was at 100%. All of a sudden i started hanging pitches that i purposely put below the zone with good pitching input. Everything my opponent hit was a home run. There were about 5000 checked swings on too early swings and werent call full swings. To me someone who is check swinging all game long cant identify the pitches.
-
Why do people defend SDS when SDS cant defend themselves? I would like to have some interaction with SDS and discuss upcoming patches and etc.
But anyway we all got bamboozled again. This is insanity
