Just revealed 99 Retro Finest Aroldis Chapman. Yikes!
In the tweet they said "Grind Mode On", so I'm holding out hope I can get Aroldis for a lengthy grind instead of an impossible Moments one.

Gaaaaaaa, I need training. Anything you all can do to help me with this program. I will swear off booze and munchies until I break at least 1 controller.

I took Monday off for the program…..depending on requirements….I may likely need Tuesday as well…….

Just my luck. I had the whole summer off, but I'm back to work Monday.

Maybe start with a prayer because pretty much confirmed that he will be the final Showdown boss. Can't wait to have six outs to score six runs off him on Legend.

Don’t approach it trying to unlock the cards as quickly as possible, take your time, its going to be a challenge for a lot of people, myself included. If you approach it patiently it’s not so frustrating, it’s also great practice for online play.

Play a few games on legend. When extreme first came out it was the first time I played on legend and it was shocking how similar it was. I didn’t think I’d beat it but I did.
Example, when you get a “perfect” hit, it’s in the middle of the PCI. It doesn’t really matter how big or small the PCI is, the middle is the middle. All you need to figure out is the timing difference.
Hits don’t go further on Rookie or Vet, there’s no exit velo boost, the defenders play the same it’s very very similar apart from a faster fastball. That just comes with time.
Best thing to do is play a bit with faster pitch speeds. It’s multiple times easier than with the lag and other factors that hinder online. Plus if you play conquest you can practice hitting on legend speed vs bronze pitching. Then play mini seasons against Diamond pitchers if you feel up to it.

The keep saying get your grind on!
This about to be a pxp nightmare for some I think

Thanks man, I appreciate it. You're right, and for once I can't flip my way through this. Good call on conquest into Mini Seasons, I'm gonna start on conquest tonight against legend , maybe start the US Map again and just focus on timing.

What about Aroldis Chapman. A 99 Retro Finest! His SS card wasn’t even a 99 (though I don’t understand how they come out with RP/CP overall ratings); this is going to be crazy!

If it's Andre Dawson, they already lost me. Not doing an extreme grind for such a horrible swing.
I agree with you. His swing is right up there with Bench, Schmidt and Ripken.
I love Bench is swing I hit good with him every year

Reward #4 looks to be Donaldson

This weekend might be the best time to play online. All the really good players will be working in extreme.

Dammit, was hoping he would be a bit easier to obtain this year

Kudos to you sir. Most people hate his swing. I wish I could hit with him because he was one of my favorites growing up in the 70's.

For me I sit on low pitches especially inside. This year I pretty much only play offline. I been using his Gold 84 in the mini season and to complete Reds mission and he hitting pretty good so far, Years past he would be my catcher in online play for RS. I hit will with Gary Carter as well but sometimes I have a hard time hitting with Piazza.

This is excited I have been for a drop in sometime.
Finally! Extreme has come back to the Shooooow! 🤨

Question for y'all. Did anyone see the 99 Vida Blue Milestone 300 Strikeouts card that was posted on Twitter yesterday? It has since been taken down because the card is not out yet but I wonder if it may be tied to the Extreme program?
