What’s All-Star Look Like to You?

What do the pitch speeds at the all-star level of ranked seasons look like to you? For me, more often than not, it looks a little faster than offline legend with the sliders left in the middle.

Normal these days. This is the first year I’ve spent most of my play time on all star difficulty, previous years I’d get to 700+ ASAP and generally float around 750-850 rating, playing the majority of my games on HoF. This year, I have no idea what the hell is going on, I’ve only made CS one season and never made WS once and I’ve played almost exclusively on all star throughout the year.
Probably as a direct result of playing all my games on all star, I’ve come to hate MLB The Show and I believe this is the worst version of Diamond Dynasty I’ve ever played, even worse than the notoriously bad ‘18. The main issue isn’t the pitch speeds, although I agree they’re faster than previous years, it’s the amount of home runs and random outcomes I can’t get past. That has ensured I stay sloshing around in all star hell for the entire year and probably killed my interest in the franchise for the future. This will probably be my last MLB The Show game.

All Star in events seems easy to me. In RS it seems a little faster and in Custom Leagues it seems even faster. That's my take for All Star online. All Star in Conquest is pretty much the only level I use to get it done faster.

I think that the offline pitch speeds look about the same to everybody. What I’m curios about is whether or not pitch speeds online look different to different players. Use the offline pitch speeds as a frame of reference. I understand perception will play a part, but I still think it would be interesting to see what other people are experiencing. Also, mention what your internet speed is. Mine is 300mbps give or take on a wired connection.

My experience is the opposite regarding RS and Custom Leagues. I find ranked way more likely to be Uber fast fastballs and custom leagues more like events.
