Lol the people here are the ones actually raging, not the dash boarders. I've had dozens of people dashboard against me. It's not a big deal. Move on to the next.

you're a 350 ranked player, you're opinion is irrelevant

Falling for the bait to post my stuff...

First off rank is irrelevant in this conversation. Even if my rating was 350 it would be just as valid someone 1200. I don't claim to be amazing but I'm decent, especially for an older player. I'm 44-7 in RS and I've gone 12-0. Haven't made WS because I haven't tried. This is the first season I might and not really motivated because legend is too hard and the rewards aren't great. Love the game on HOF, I'm worthless on legend.

Well i wasn't expecting a response like that. Well done sir, well done

The flag means you have to be nice

I just played 2 event games as a warm up since I haven't really played much in a few days. In the first game I immediately noticed all speed players and thought to myself "here it comes". I get Turner out, and then Puason bloops in a single. He immediately takes 3 extra steps and prepares to steal. I pick off to first, he takes off, I throw to second and my fielder has the ball when he is only 3/4 of the way to 2nd. Somehow he evades the tag and is safe. BS. Next batter, he tried to bunt with Soriano and I just know he is going to try to go 2nd to home, so I ignore the runner at first and throw home. Sure enough he goes home and is out by a mile. This time the tag is made. Then he does the same 3 step lead with Soriano and takes off, but this time my fielder makes the tag and he is out. Bottom of the first I get a single with Ohtani, and then an absolute moonshot by Trea Turner. Instant dashboard.

Next game was pretty normal. Top of the second my opponent hits a homerun with Castellanos, and I respond with one by Schwarber in the bottom of the second. Bottom of the third he brings in 99 Rivera and Trea Turner is up. I set up inside because I have a feeling he's gonna try to catch me looking on a cutter inside. I'm ready for it and hit another moonshot on the first pitch. You all know what comes next. Dashboard...

So Turner lost 2 homeruns in about 20-30 minutes, but that's what happens in events. While it's nice to use players who don't normally make a ranked squad and work on stats, since there are no consequences for losses people will act like clowns. There was also some guy on here a few days ago claiming his dashboarded homerun counted because the screen froze up a bit and he saw the runner make it all the way home. Same thing happened to me in the second game. Checked the box score, no homerun. So that definitely is not fixed.

On pickoffs, I just picked up game a couple weeks ago. This is definitely not like last years version. Half the time I go for a pick off the pitcher doesnt actually throw it or throws with horrible accuracy. Sometimes it's not even a pickoff but the throwing meter pops up which always turns into an error for me. What is the proper way of picking off in this game because I am obviously doing something wrong. Last year I never had any issues with this.
