An MTO run on AS with a contender will allow you to gather 72 TA points. That takes approximately 5-6 hours to accomplish. That is far an away more efficient than running showdowns back 10 times when a showdown takes over an hour to complete if you don’t skip to the final boss to complete one division
It takes WAY longer than that unless they changed it from last year....10 hours ar least. The playoffs took 4-5 hours by themselves.
Dude I played the Braves MTO this year and completed it in under 6 hours. If you play just the moments and don’t trade or bring up players it can be done pretty fast.
I simply doNt understand why people feel the need to lie.
Wow, gfy kid. Every post that I’ve read of yours is you attacking other people when they disagree with you. You’re a [censored] troll. Call me a liar with zero proof to back it up. Gtfo troll.

Having viewed your stats it makes since why it would take you over 10 hours to play. You straight up suck at the game. Have a good day troll!!!
Homie you have 8 days and 15 hours on the game and ur Batting Average is .429. I don't wanna hear it [censored]
What point are you making? The guy I was speaking to has a .235 batting average in online games. That’s a pretty bad batting average. . 429 batting average online would be considered very good. So what point are you making exactly. The post I made about that guy was a knock on him taking 10 hours to complete an MTO run when it can be easily done in under 6 hours which he proceeded to call me a liar about. Again what is your point!!!
Mine is .479 bot
Good job bud!!!! That’s great but your point is a little obscure when put into the context of my original post that you’re replying to.

Didn't want to make a new topic for this:
What cards do you guys focus on for exchanges? Cheapest 83 golds, silvers, commons? Want to begin stocking up today.
I did a bucketload of cheap rookies for TA1 like Griffey, Brooks Robinson, Gwynn, etc

Some LS diamonds are close to qs value, ONLY thing I hate is exchanging one and seeing the bar for the exchange percentage hit 125%. But in some cases cheap LS diamonds may be the way to go.

Wow that’s weird I was in from Feb of 99 - Aug of 11. Got out because I was sick of deployment to the AOR. 9 tours to Afghanistan spanning over 4 years. It was taking its toll on my mind.

That is a lot of deployments. I did 14 years in the Navy. Deployed a bunch was gone out to sea all the time.
Yeah the first 3 or 4 deployments were fine but it got to the point that I was literally deploying every year for 4-6 months at a time. It cost me my first marriage and being in a constant state of heightened alertness was messing with my mind. Our brains were not intended to constantly stimulated like that and of course coming home we weren’t getting enough down time before being redeployed again. I had to call it quits to save my sanity. But thank you for your service.

Thank you for your service as well. I was forced out of the Navy cause I did not E-6 in 14 years. Got a good payout with it. Retirement would have been better. I was on USS Nimitz Air Craft Carrier for 6 years, was there longer than I should have been. I did 3 Deployments in 6 years. Then I Volunteered to go on a Deployment with another ship for Humanitarian. That was a fun deployment. My wife is awesome and loved that I was in the service.

I must be in the minority. I like the Team over division better. Solely for Lineup Building. I get to use more guys I wouldn't normally use when building my lineups by team. Hopefully they'll keep the 10 pts per 250 innings. That's the real question.
Even at 10 points, it's a far inferior method of completing affinities as opposed to showdown or mto. To complete all affinities by innings alone, if my math is correct, would require 2500 9 inning games.
Innings played should get at least 15 points, and preferably 20, to at least get it somewhat close to showdown.
I don't like showdowns, won't play mto, not going to do exchanges, so it makes it really hard to complete. With pxp and innings, I'm starting to feel like 18 and the immortals. Play the game as fast as you can on rookie, bat out, and get going on the next.
that honestly sounds like an ish you, if your not willing to do the grind that it requires then its not anyone elses fault
Stupid take. Last year was an absurd grind for TA. It was either countless team innings or 15 hours of NTO.
then dont do the grind, there is enough complainers here without you being one of them too
Look at how awesome you are!
I will say whatever I want troll.
and no one will listen or care

It's not a me thing at all. Whether I grind by innings, showdown, or mto, the time spent grinding should be somewhat equivilant. That's far from the case though, as if I were to grind it by showdown alone, I would spend only 1/4 of the time doing so. Mto is also a good chunk of points. It's apparent that SDS wants to push showdown and mto, and discourage innings played.
And as far as not being willing to grind, I grind far more than those who are using showdown or mto's to complete.
It’s not possible for them to be equivalent.
Showdown and moments are based of users skill, someone can finish them first try and some people can’t even finish them after 20 tries. How can you possible make equate that to innings played?
They give you multiple avenues, if you choose to take one and only one and it’s the one they needed to multiple by 4x for the current year and even after that, needed to double the total points earned not that long ago you are probably picking the wrong path.
-
I think this TA will be more like MLB show 18 i think it was when you had to grind for like stats like get -- 25 hits -- 10 XBH etc -- more but that was just an example
-
I am trash at hitting, so I don't play Showdown. That said, between the moments, missions, and exchanges, I'm almost done with Season 1. By playing the moments first, I was able to unlock the gold mission players, and the exchanges are pretty easy to fill. By plugging in the mission golds and filling in with a division lineup, I have been able to grind pretty steadily. I feel that this is far superior to last years' TA grind.

Showdown and moments are based of users skill, someone can finish them first try and some people can’t even finish them after 20 tries. How can you possible make equate that to innings played?
They give you multiple avenues, if you choose to take one and only one and it’s the one they needed to multiple by 4x for the current year and even after that, needed to double the total points earned not that long ago you are probably picking the wrong path.
Oh, I'm definitely aware that it's the wrong path, or at least the path they don't want you to take. I'll do moments, but I despise them as much as I do showdown or mto. They're purely a waste of time for me, with no stats or pxp counting, coupled alongside the bs sliders with circus fielders.

I must be in the minority. I like the Team over division better. Solely for Lineup Building. I get to use more guys I wouldn't normally use when building my lineups by team. Hopefully they'll keep the 10 pts per 250 innings. That's the real question.
Even at 10 points, it's a far inferior method of completing affinities as opposed to showdown or mto. To complete all affinities by innings alone, if my math is correct, would require 2500 9 inning games.
Innings played should get at least 15 points, and preferably 20, to at least get it somewhat close to showdown.
I don't like showdowns, won't play mto, not going to do exchanges, so it makes it really hard to complete. With pxp and innings, I'm starting to feel like 18 and the immortals. Play the game as fast as you can on rookie, bat out, and get going on the next.
that honestly sounds like an ish you, if your not willing to do the grind that it requires then its not anyone elses fault
It's not a me thing at all. Whether I grind by innings, showdown, or mto, the time spent grinding should be somewhat equivilant. That's far from the case though, as if I were to grind it by showdown alone, I would spend only 1/4 of the time doing so. Mto is also a good chunk of points. It's apparent that SDS wants to push showdown and mto, and discourage innings played.
And as far as not being willing to grind, I grind far more than those who are using showdown or mto's to complete.

The one thing I think you're forgetting is that showdown or MTO specifically really only give rewards towards the affinity. However, innings can be obtained doing events, br, ranked seasons, or conquest which is usually working towards more valuable rewards.

Didn't want to make a new topic for this:
What cards do you guys focus on for exchanges? Cheapest 83 golds, silvers, commons? Want to begin stocking up today.
I did a buckeload of cheap rookies for TA1 like Griffey, Brooks Robinson, Gwynn, etc
Some LS diamonds are close to qs value, ONLY thing I hate is exchanging one and seeing the bar for the exchange percentage hit 125%. But in some cases cheap LS diamonds may be the way to go.
This, but they will shoot up in price Friday. Anytime you can get a card at QS value, do it. At worst, you're out nothing when you sell it. At best, you make a nice profit.
