Dog days of summer showdown
-
Pedro and his warping pitches that hit all the corners can kiss off. While I understand it’s supposed to be tough that is absolutely ridiculous for most players. Just a mini rant as I try not to take it too seriously but still frustrating to say the least.
-
You are absolutely gonna love showdown extreme.
-
Can’t wait haha. This is the first showdown I’ve struggled with as Pedro seems to have another gear with crazy movement and control.
-
Yeah, finally made it to him on my 3rd try but because I'm such an inconsistent hitter, I failed multiple blue missions and had a 5 run deficit. Way too big of an ask, so not getting this one. I honestly like the showdowns that are all eliminations.
And yes, showdown extreme can [censored] off along with the rest of the extreme program, I won't even try it.
-
Tried it 4 times now and just lost tied up 15 to 15 uggh. I don’t mind a challenge but hitting is something people are either really good at or not and I don’t think it matters how much you play or practice everyone has a speed threshold.
-
I got it done on my second attempt this morning when I decided to pay attention. It helps to successfully complete all missions. I drafted all lefties except for Bench. All exit velocity perks obviously. When I got to Pedro I took two pitches before even trying to hit in order to run up the count.
-
So now I’ve failed tied 15 to 15, 5 times in a row. Officially the most frustrating showdown I’ve played yet. It’s not just choking when tied up it’s been various circumstances where guys suddenly line out, pop up, or swing thru the ball. Can’t make it up.
-
personally sat on the high fastball and tried best not to chase. Draft a ton of lefties or Righties that hit RHP well. And if you get it 15-15 with less than 5 outs, don't be afraid to sub in the runner for a speedster. Keep one on the bench even if it is a common, then bunt him over to third and either hope you put in play or try a squeeze on a count you are ahead on.
