I use pulse and it is really easy...pitches go wherever you want! Especially fastballs
Yup, 100%. I've had no issues pitching this year, especially with high control guys. Smoltz has 204 K's and 3 walks in 111.1 innings pitched. 0.49 ERA, 0.32 Whip
Just got Hershiser, but so far: 22 K's, 1 walk, 14 IP. 0.00 ERA, 0.86 Whip.
Hershiser has been lights out in ranked! I have 13 total innings in ranked and a zero ERA. I’m 70% done prestiging him because of the event. I’m surprised Smoltz is good for you! How long have you used pulse for?

I don't remember, it's all I've used. I didn't start playing DD until last year, so online, two years. You learn timing with pulse, and you learn pitcher tendencies, it takes some time, but it's well worth it.
Prestige Felix is unhittable, but if you aim his slider at the corner, it will hang and go 500 feet. You have to learn WHERE to put them to get the result you want, it's not for everyone.

I respect the OPs view....However, as for me, the moment I stop caring about my online record is the moment I will stop playing RS h2h.
For me, it is only fun to do that mode due to the idea that it is somehow important, at least in a competitive sense (like pickup basketball or something). That gives me the motivation to grind for better cards along with trying to get better. It plays on my competiveness, which makes RS worth my time. -

Same, last year was my first year. I played in 16 and wanted to get back into it. I played a little last year but have played more this year for sure! Madden and rocket league have died off but I’m getting into Fortnite a little...

I'm a coach, I have enough competition in my job, I enjoy video games for the fun factor without the stress.

Cool:
I'll keep it posted for 20 minutes, so check fast. I generally use twitter for professional purposes, so people might be confused.

The training wheels pitch setting works in the 400s against .150 hitters but your not hitting those numbers against a good player lol, not even a decent one.

Weird flex, pitching is about location and selection. The thread is about hanging pitches down the middle, which is what we are discussing. Also, I'm not playing in the 400's if that was directed towards me.
Training wheels pitch settings would be "classic pitching", and I don't believe anyone here is using that setting.
Pulse and meter is literally the same thing, with a different visual for timing. Some people prefer the madden kicking style approach, others prefer pulse, they both give the same result.

That's where I am at.

Carrying where exactly? Over to a friends house?

I didn't notice either. Just shows how quickly we read things, and how easily our brains adjust so that things make sense.

It is a weird flex. It’s a very very weird flex to tell everybody in a thread they can’t pitch than announce you use pulse and pretend you hit every spot every time when everybody knows you mean the gigantic circle or randomness. Pulse and Meter are not the same, you can’t over throw with pulse and gain velocity, if you use pulse you pitch 1-2 mph slower than every other setting, it’s very much NOT the same.
The circle gets bigger and bigger on HOF and legend and is almost impossible, it’s a training wheels setting.

See you next event or next RS.

You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. I play on HOF on a regular basis, and you can absolutely control velocity. Keep talking LOL

If by regular basis you mean when the Devs put events on HOF and you go boost these pitching stats against low level players that don’t play on HOF then yeah, you play it on a regular basis.
How many of these HOF games on the regular basis are in RS? How many times did pulse carry you above 900? How many WS players were apart of those stat lines and got no hit by Smoltz and Orel?
I know exactly what I’m talking about.

I'm sorry you don't pitch as well as me, keep practicing, you'll get there! Lots of helpful tips on youtube.

You have never had a pitch go somewhere other than you intended? I don't think it would be an exaggeration to say that everyone has had this happen once or twice with good/perfect input (in the entirety of their play, let alone once a session/evening).
But maybe I am in the wrong and don't fully understand pitching with the meter? I do plan on switching to analog.He has...and is lying. It happens to everyone, not because you suck...or as this guy wants to pretend (he's the greatest). It's because that's what the AI determines. Dudes, all of you know, it's not about your talent..it's about what the AI decides. This ain't a competitive simulation. It's a game. Albeit a nicely animated one, but not a nicely simulated one most of the time.
