Is there a list to each of the final archetypes and what position they play for primary in DD?

    See the topic. I was wondering if there was a list or chart to show where all of these archetypes end up.

    Haven’t seen on but I have unlocked a few Diamonds. It seems to be the first position on the list that DD considers as the primary position. In RTTS is doesn’t matter what archetype you use with whatever position you picked to play.

    We can start a list if people contribute on this thread.

    This is what I have so far
    Sparkplug->Slugging Sparkplug->The Hawk and The Tool Shed gold then Diamond
    The Hawk is SS,C,1B,2B,3B,SS,LF,CF,RF - for some reason SS is listed 2x and SS is the DD position
    The Tool Shed is LF,3B,SS,CF,RF - LF is the primary in DD

    Slick Fielding->Sparking Slickster->The Wizard and The Mechanical Man gold then Diamond
    The Wizard - SS,C,1B,2B,3B,LF,CF,RF - SS again is the primary for DD
    The Mechanical Man - Same as The Wizard at gold which normally stays the same for Diamond

    Slugger->Sparking Slugger->The Duke and Crime Dog gold the diamond
    Right now I only have these in gold but diamond seems to always be the same as gold for positions
    The Duke - LF,1B,3B,SS,LF,CF,RF - LF listed 2x here and LF is primary for DD
    Crime Dog - 3B,C,1B,2B,3B,SS,LF,CF,RF - 3B listed wax here and 3B is primary for DD

    Painter->Filthy Painter->The Professor gold then Diamond
    Painter->Cheesy Painter->Billy The Kid gold then Diamond
    Both of the above are the two SP routes. The Professor focuses more on control and Billy The Kid more on velocity. With diamond perks these really are not a lot different.

    So far that is what I have unlocked. As you can see SDS didn’t really think about making each diamond archetype have a different main position for DD. There are a lot of SS and LF mains where DD is considered. For RTTS is doesn’t matter though, you can pick the position you want and use any archetype you want. Granted if you use an SP one on a position player you will probably never make it out of AA 😂

    There's a reddit thread that has exactly this (for position players)

    Has anyone found a list of these for pitchers? Going to begin a SP RTTS loadout and want to find the path leading to the highest velocity archetype.

    I hate this system. Just unlocked some new perks, but tired of "increase this, but this decreases". You're penalized for progressing. How about just "increase this".

    You can find Diamond perks that only increase except for contact and power. But now that gear works you can get both of those up to a 100 anyway even with the negatives.

    Why is there not a diamond archetype for first base or catcher?
