Knuckleballer Ryan Feierabend
-
I've faced him twice online so far and both times smashed him. I don't see a problem with people using him. He's terrible. Just wait for something high and it gets destroyed. It's even funnier when they try to throw that terrible fastball to trick you. If it's hit, it's gone
-
I’ve faced him a couple of times, and have always hit him hard at least once per inning, but have yet to score on him. Usually my opponent takes him out after seeing that I can hit him, but I’ve been shut out for three innings as well.

I've been trying to tell you guys. SWITCH TO ANALOGUE. you will crack ANYTHING in the zone. Just don't forget to switch it back after

I don't like your stab at Analog Hitting, its the most natural way of hitting, when are you guys gonna understand that? And why are we still talking about Feierabend he plays in Japan now...update your rosters people!.

It’s one thing to be enough of tool to use him but to come on here and actually create a post about it makes this guy extra special.
-
@pfcorporate my post was 16 days ago before the player base caught onto him. Nothing wrong with saving cap using a 49 in events to free up room either. I guess if anyone used a knuckleballer in this game they would be called a “tool” or “cheesy” like y’all never used Dickey back in the day.
-
Yea to be fair I joined this forum about two years ago and before that I probably wouldn’t have known using a knuckleballer was considered cheese so if you are new to the forum it’s pretty much the consensus of nearly everyone that knuckleballers are about the cheesiest thing you can do to try to get a win. If you are not new to the forum and know that knuckleballers are cheese and make a post about how great they are to use, that’s what would make you a tool.

Not meaning to sound like a D here, but I crush this guy every time someone throws him out there. The game isnt flawed because you havent learned the proper adjustment. Just be humble. Realize that good games create dynamic experiences so you have to be more versatile in your ability. This pitcher is extremely vulnerable, but you have to change your approach... that makes it extremely realistic IMO. But haters gonna hate cause they can figure it out and it makes them frustrated.

The balancing of knuckleballs has been a problem in the past, seems to be better this year. I’ve lit him up every time I’ve faced him or wright but if you’re thinking it isn’t cheesy to have that kind of success with a 49 overall pitcher I don’t really know what to tell you

If I went up against someone spamming KB after KB I agree I would say their cheese also. And would quickly figure them out. But if dude is mixin the FB in also peppering the paint and corners then I’d give them props. It’s only a matter of time to figure one’s pattern and frequency but for a solid inning I’ll continue “exploiting” till SDS figures something out I guess
Feirabend is a 49 OVR...
I don’t care how good you are at pitching, no pitcher rated that low should be that effective. Put another common pitcher on the mound and see how he does, I’m sure it won’t even CLOSE. I wonder why that would be the case? Maybe because he has a broken pitch exclusive to only him ?
Stephen Wright: Hold my beer!
Steven Wright’s knuckle looks like a change up compared to Ryan’s, thing has insane movement and I agree with everyone it’s broken af. And needs to be fixed
-
So I've only encountered this fool once so far and my strategy was to follow it like a glorified curve ball... And I couldn't hit him. What's the secret?
-
The secret is to switch to directional, sit way back, and look for one up.

Only way to balance the knuckle ball is to completely remove all aspects of control. Knuckle balls should purely be "Press X to throw". RNG would rule the day. Only way to balance it.
and high knuckleballs should be flat af and get crushed , but that doesn't happen.
Knockleballs are a part of baseball Skippy, don't you like baseball?

Card has been clutch for my bullpen. Watching those swings is so hilarious.. reminiscent of the RA Dickey days back in the old shows
Easy to crush when I switch from zone to analog

He's a Blue Jay and I play Franchise with The Jays so I'm totally fine with this Go Jays go!!!
You know only casuals use him though, right?
And noobs. Especially noobs
Always noobs! If it wasn't for noobs there wouldn't be an option to auto field or auto run the bases, you know the basics of playing?. A pure noob in The Show 25 would be from him/her to just install the game and they win.
You can auto run bases? What?
Yes you can auto run in this game, yep....I thought it was a joke but its an actual thing that;s an option for noobs.
That is more for children who like to play this game offline
