I’m not really playing anymore. Possibly some other average players have also moved on also?

I usually lose the first game win the second and lose the third lol sometimes get to game 4 or 5 with team
So usually I win a game then lose as well but usually that game after I loss is much easier. In this event I take an L the face a WS banner it’s brutal lol
-
I suck and I’ve been playing a little. I’m only
up to 6 wins so last night I thought about just buying Upton when he was at 22K. Now he’s at like 40K so I guess I might just keep grinding away. -

I struggled mightily last event with this on all star I feel like I at least have a chance lose a ton of 1-0 games cause can’t hit

It’s the two awards series players that are in the event. I think that’s the hardest collection (besides HRD) and those are essentially free cards you get so it’s an easy way to get 2 cards needed for collections. Also I don’t think a lot of WS players were playing the event at first because it was on all star.

I either win the game 1-0 with a white knuckle Tom Henke save or I get obliterated. My hitting was bad before, in this event I make Bob Uecker look like Mike Trout.

I’m trying to prestige Kerry Wood in this event and I’ve deemed it impossible. The guy gives up 5 runs minimum a start. As far as pitchers I’ve used he might suffer the most from all Star difficulty. He’s unhittable in HOF but AS? Straight bating practice

thats me against Oswalt. I can not touch him -
I can’t hit Newhouser. But everyone seems to hit my Newhouser. Herschiser and Smoltziser both suck for me too.
And I’ve had no luck prestiging much of Rivera...iser

I got the stats for Mo in the last event and I sold him for Walker.
I could not pitch with him. He was a freaking bleep show. -
Just came here to post this if I didn’t see a thread on it. I’m on game 46 and can only remember 1 opponent with a losing record. Probably about 75% prestige level players also (although at this point, that doesn’t necessarily mean anything).
-
I thought I was the only one! At least I’m not facing a lot of starters coming out of the bullpen. A lot of Hershiser’s. A lot of people are prestige too.

I’m struggling getting Ks in this event with Paxton. Everyone hits somehow

I never use starters out of the pen, but if I am getting shelled and I already have 1 loss, I will throw out a prestigable card like King Felix or Leiter to get the last inning.

Everyone I face is a monster. Hitting .350 with all of the big cards like Mickey, Walker and Sheff.
Gotta find a way to get 39 wins by August 7. -
@theman925 said in Event competition:
Is no one bad playing this event (no offense)? Seems like every game I play is against a guy with a WS Banner or a 750 winning percentage. I don’t mind the competition but sheesh I’m not trying to sweat through every game especially in events
I feel you everyone has a winning record or that ws banner up to 27 wins but been a grind.
-
I'm mediocre and played a WS guy who quit after he went out 1-2-3 in the top of the first. Not sure if he was playing for Prestige but I was happy for the free Event win.
Outside that I have noticed few newbies seem to be playing Events. Every game is against a 98 OVR God squad .
-
im not great and ive been playing but it seems ive been playing alot of people that cant pitch or just try and bunt so i just wait for the walks and throw nothing but high fastballs until they stop bunting
-
I was wondering this, I suck but everyone else seems to be a WS player at level 50 prestige. I know the level means nothing, but they have some good cards. I think I'm the only person who doesn't have Mantle, I could've, but bought other cards and wasted stubs.
I've got 6 wins, if I can just get enough to get Simmons, is it 50 for him?
