    The good ole slump buster.

    When I have issues I play against the cpu on legend. After that balls look like slow motion in ranked.

    Strike zone is the only reason so many people can catch up to unrealistic put he’s to hit. It shouldn’t be available on RS BR or events. I use zoom since it’s the best view to appreciate the games graphics. Even though it’s harder, why wouldn’t I want a challenge to appreciate my success more. Idk maybe I’m old school but the harder it is to accomplish the more I appreciate the outcome.

    fish eye2, I use to be strike zone only but for some reason this year I can not hit that way - maybe because I am 45 but I still hit pretty well with fish eye and find its very easy to determine balls and strikes. I hit around 400 in online play.

    Fish eye, fish eye 2, catcher high, wide. Those strike zone cameras shouldn’t even be allowed.

    Try strike zone offset. I’ll flip between strike zone and offset when I feel I’m struggling reading pitches. I’m sure it’s just a mental thing, but that slight change gets me focused again.

    Also, try turning off pci for a bit and just focus on the pitch. You’d be surprised at how naturally your thumbs move with the pitch when the pci isn’t in the way.

    That's a good idea. Im trying zone out for the first time and I'm always swinging at junk because I'm to worried about the pci. When I use analog I hardly ever swing outside the zone. Im gonna give this a try

    Simple, it’s takes up the entire screen which makes it easier not to get fooled by pitches. Why do you think people use it? It’s not because it looks good, it’s because it gives them an edge.

    The farther back view in my opinion gives you more time to track where the pitch is going. I’m really struggling this year to decide on a camera. One day one feels good and then the next day it doesn’t.

    PCI off is great advice. I never really like any of the SZ views. I always feel like I cant judge low pitches as well. Strikezone 3 isnt bad.This probably wont be a hot take but fish eye 2 is a pretty good view. It's height is positioned perfectly so it's easy to tell if a pitch is going high/low/inside/outside. It's also pretty easy to pick up the ball out of the pitchers hand

    With analog in zone hitting will flicking RS in different directions cause it to perform like directional?? RS to the right, try and hit to the right side etc.... Or does up, down, left, right just simply swing the bat?

    I agree. I switch between fish eye 2 and catcher high

    To me there are only 2 options if your goal is to compete online. Strike Zone and Strike Zone High.

    Anything else is fine if you play casually or in the lower tiers, but once you start playing HOF and Legend, other camera angles put you in a disadvantage. Does that mean you can't hit the ball or win games in the higher tiers using anything other than the 2 options I mentioned? No. But there's a reason every single top 50 player (probably even top 200) uses one of these 2 options, that's not a coincidence.

    But at the end of the day you should always stick to what you prefer. The game is also about having fun, and there's no reason to use Strike Zone camera if you feel you "have to" in order to get results but don't enjoy using it.

    That’s why strike zone cameras shouldn’t be allowed. The strike zone is basically the size of the screen and takes away from the pitching. If the ball is not on screen, then don’t swing. It’s lame and looks ridiculous on top of that. All you boys getting a close up of the batters hang down must really get you in the mood.

    To each their own, but what you say about the ball not being on screen if it's outside the zone is not true at all.

    Can you adequately measure your batters junk?
