    Bro ferreal I cannot stand people that do that like what is the point. So people not understand this is a game meant to be enjoyed. It's like some people get off on taking the fun out of it for others it's so ridiculous.

    Totally agree, i threw my first ever perfect game (combined bull pen from the start) against one of these guys.

    He started off with the R2 flicking it off and on, to which i would just press L1 to stand off the mound, but the deeper it got into the game, he more he did it.

    From the 7th inning he started bunt dancing and R2 at the same time, but he did it in such a way that i was able to throw the ball 5ft over the zone and get a strike because he was presenting BUNT. hahaha.

    I won 3-0 i think in the end, it was very satisfying.

    Love when I get into a game and it becomes immediately clear that I'm facing a bunt dancer. They tend to be predictable and terrible at the game and yes, it is very enjoyable beating up on them.

    I know, I know. All us normal people get annoyed with R2 holders in this game.

    But, is there anyone more satisfying to just beat the **** out of? Is there anyone else that you beat that just makes you laugh and get genuine enjoyment out of this game?

    All the normal people out there: What are your thoughts? Who gives you more enjoyment to beat? R2 holders? Bunt dancers? Guys that take 20 seconds to throw a pitch?

    Couldn't agree more - bonus laughs when they rage quit

    Love beating the people that abuse pausing, and I’ve heard so many people defend it.

    “I need a snack!!”

    In the second inning? Come off it!

    “I’m analyzing tendencies”

    You take this way too seriously.

    The fact you can pause 15 minutes a game is insane

    R2 hold is fine - use it, gain info, done.
    R2 spam is BS - on, off, on ,off to try and throw off your pitch.

    Beating people with Trump jerseys is definitely #1 on my list.
    Based on this R2 talk, I guess I’ve been getting lucky. I don’t think I’ve run into a single person in my 100+ games that has abused it. I use it the first few pitches/batters when a new pitcher comes in just to learn the repertoire, and others have reasonably done the same, but I haven’t had someone use it for a whole game.

    Bunt cheesers that take advantage of terrible animations. Why the 1b celebrates every out like it's the first he's ever had is beyond me. When I make them dashboard early I get more excited than I'd care to admit.

    They must be super young the ones who do that!. Like you said, what's the point? Isn't the goal to have a good enjoyable game? The R2ers yea it's silly but I can deal with it usually. Those players are usually not that good so they resort to the cheese. The bunt dancers though? That I can't tolerate at all. I have 0 patience for those guys! The R2ers tend not to be good but those bunt dancers have not a lick of skill. I'm not talking about laying down bunts, I bunt too but in a baseball context not just dropping bunts with him, her, her and him!

    I think it's usually kids who do it. It's just annoying - but they are generally terrible at the game and extremely predictable. You know when they're swinging and when they're taking. You know when they're stealing and when they're just bluffing a runner taking a lead. They go fastball, off-speed, fastball on repeat...
