This Event is Brutal

Thought this Legend difficulty would widen the gap between monitor playing WS and 12-0 BR players and TV playing chumps like myself but it seems to have done the opposite. I usually can't hang with those folks but have beaten a few of them so far.
-
I think there is some whacked stuff going on with pitching. Even against really poor opponents, I will suddenly have the damndest time hitting my spots at all.

Finest Cody Bellinger is the best player I’ve used this year. Cannot hit with anyone else consistently on Legend except with Bellinge
I’m using potm Cody Bellinger and he’s absolutely raking
-
The thing that is ridiculous about legend is how the same rules apply to contact. Same line outs etc. a perfect perfect line out on legend stings even more then on other difficulties.

At least for us normal mortals, because we only get like one or two a game...

I'm definitely not a legend hitter, but I would agree that Bellinger is the best hitter I have used. Same was true last year.
I'm hitting under .200 with 1 or 2 HR with 99 Tatis and I can't do anything to get that [censored] going at the plate (I know I'm in the minority here), but Bellinger is hitting over .360 with like 28 or so homeruns (over half of his hits have been homeruns). I think two games back he was 4-4 with 4 HR.
Am I that much worse one or two batters earlier when Tatis is up? Probably not. I feel like the PCI feedback is usually pretty similar. Bellinger is just unstoppable.

I'm still loving this event. Current streak is 4 in a row. Beat some WS players, guys with insane win/loss records. Last game was intense and a blast. Tons of K's (in 7 innings) but Mookie put me ahead with a 2 run shot. Belly has been killing it. My pitching has been good and the bullpen has been dominant. Sorry guys but I wish all events were played on this level.

If all events were played on this level, there would be an awful lot of 12 inning no hitters ending with a walk off late home run.
Maybe a better thing to wish for would be consistent gameplay across difficulty levels and modes.

Went from 12-8 on the 4th to 14-49 today. Was scoring atleast twice a game. Now lucky to get 1 hit a game. Did all the lower ranked players give up?
-
Got my 50th win today and I chose Willie mccovey from the rewind choice pack.
The other two guys were Jake Arietta and lefty grove

Just curious, what qualifies as an insane win/loss record?

I am at 59 wins. Got Betances with my first rewind. I have never gotten the 99 options in rewind packs and I have earned everyone available so far in events ️

I guess it wasn't much of the record but games played. I went back into my history and these are the records:
390-258
966-1268
142-44
1466-573
152-60
408-371
232-166I think I've only played 40 RS games and events here and there. I was getting pummeled in events and was not having fun. Last couple games in this event I've beat a WS player and hung with a flawless player. So far I'm 23-20

It seems much easier to hit here than in any ranked season game over 700 ratings
-
I’ve used contact swing but going from all star speed to legend ruins it. so I just forfeited my entry, because it’s not worth the headache lol
