How do I beat low level bronzes?
-
I fully acknowledge that I'm bad at this game and I pose this genuinely.
I'm a level Gold 65 with a good team and I just cannot beat low level bronze players in ranked seasons. And the more I get absolutely railed by these teams, the lower I drop, and the more of them I face. I literally cannot do anything against them. I find ways to watch cans of corn drop in front of me in the infield for a double and let soft grounders hit me in the ankles. Then of course I give up a series of bunts, stolen bases and home runs on pitches down the middle.
Does anyone else have a problem going up against low level players? Is it a focus thing? And again, I know I'm not the best at this game, but I've put in 15 days of game play, I've grinded events and team affinities. I feel like I shouldn't just be getting walked all over so consistently by people who haven't reached bronze 30. How do you approach these games?

Just accept the fact that vs those lower level players the game will do these things. I’m not good enough to make it past the wild card so I’m constantly dealing with this lol. Just gotta get lucky and hopefully you win and the next game is vs a similar level

Just because a player is still a Bronze it doesn't mean they aren't good, they could be very good players who just got a late start to mlb 20

Yeah I just wonder if there is a strategy to avoid these things or mitigate their effects? I suppose the obvious answer is just get better and I'll win, but seeing as that's impossible (lol), I wonder if there's a better way than just accepting my fate as a bottom.

Also remember just, because a player is bronze, doesn't mean they are new to the game. They could have multiple accounts.

That's true and I don't mean to say that I'm a higher level I should automatically win. But it's tough to thoroughly dominate with Hal Newshouser all year against my relative peers, and then give up a 13 spot with him against a team with all silvers/golds. There has to be a better way.

True. I wonder how common that is.
I did get that vibe in a recent game. The guy was a level 10 bronze and was fitted with all of the sweatiest non-diamond players in the game. But with the pitches I was throwing, he could have been up there with all commons and still embarrassed me.

To be gold 65 at this point is massive hours. If you not “good” after putting in all that time then either move on, maybe this just isn’t your game, or accept it.
