I like the fact that everyone can eventually obtain all the cards as long as they play the game. It is probably extremely difficult for the casual player but it is what it’s listed as. It’s can be done at any skill though.
I don’t typically give SDS W’s, but I have to give them this one. Simply because it factors in the two new player bases and offers us vets a bit of challenge at the same time. Well played SDS…well played
Exactly. Well said. It’s a W in my book and the rewards are good.
The rewards aren’t game changing like in years past, but they will be a problem in online play lol, that Cano card has me frothing at the mouth
Yeah man. I just really want the Cano card and the Chapman. Those both look really good, I love Cano cards.
Cano might have one of the sweetest swings in show history IMO, Chapman with outlier and 125 k/9 and H/9? don’t even get me started. The Kerry Wood and Donaldson get sh*t on a bit but they are both top cards in my book, Kerry Wood especially, outlier and a slurve!? Laaawd please.
For realll. He might be a little wild but sometimes I feel like that’s advantage. If you don’t know where the pitch will end up how will they know. Especially coming in that fast and with that much break. Lol
101 to an 84 mph slurve, thats a problem at any level of online play
I just finished the 20 Ks with Woods moment. His fastball has some nasty arm side tail to it and that 13-6 is filthy. 🤯
I love any pitcher with a slurve.. love them long time, especially one with a 101 fastball to compliment it.
He has that Kluber type Slurve.
Yea he’s going to be a problem, I would be surprised if he isn’t in a lot of end game rotations.

Done with the moments, and just knocked out showdown
Going to attack conquest tomorrow and should get Wood to P4 or close to P4 after all those conquest games
I will say, showdown is a monster. First run, I failed on round 2. Somehow I just ran through all missions and beat Randy with 19 outs to go
Good luck on showdown
I like that though, vets still have a challenge and our new friends can still get this program done. I am leaning towards a W on this one from SDS. I think in the end its a perfect balance for right now with two new player bases.
I agree on giving SDS credit on this. I’m glad Extreme is back, I love the challenge as well
I hit my upvote limit lol but I agree, so glad it’s back and I think its the right balance to get the new players hooked on it too.
Although challenging, definitely a breath of fresh air that this game needed
Absolutely!, my only gripe about this program is that conquest isn’t against all time teams like the old timers/Ruth program, but at the same time I understand why they didn’t do that.
Have you done conquest yet? Wonder about how long that takes
I haven’t, but from what @PAinPA_PSN has said you can’t restart, though from what I read from him as well is most is played on All Star
Completed all of the turned base missions in 3 or 4 turns. Not difficult at all. Now it's just beating all the strong holds. I'd say maybe 4-5 hours ???

Nice, like I said, kinda wish they were all time teams in the conquest, but you won’t find me complaining about not having to sweat it out like in past extreme programs.

That 20 k strikeout mission was easy. It says don’t give up 2 runs. I didn’t even give up a single hit or walks. I saw on showzone on Instagram he’s ranked almost exactly the same as Nolan Ryan. For the easiest card in the program I’ll take it.

I thought it would be.so far I'm at end of turn 2 and it's been 2 territories and 1 base against MIL, 1 base and 2 territory against COL, and 2 territories against ARI all on veteran,3 of the territories could have been rookie.im right next to ARI base for turn 3.

If my math is right, just get 850,000 xps and you won't have to do anything else.
Light work
I wonder if it was possible (of course it is possible but I guess I mean in reasonable time), to add up all the PXP I've gotten from every card so far, would it equal 850k?
Assuming all my p5s were exactly 10k (they aren't Randy is at 23k), that is only 180k of the 850k
Well, you've work to do. Get crackin'.

The Kerry Wood 20K one.
It's 0-0, going into extras. Had 0 stamina but still had to pitch. Just needed 1 more K, but with no stamina. I had to nibble. Gave up 1 run, but Yordan hit a ground out for the final out. They won 1-0. Sucks to lose it like that! -

Gotcha. Thanks.
Right after, I get the Delgado one on 4 pitches!! The last hit in the 7th inning. 3 straight homers after about 25 tries, lol.

2nd attempt 6 pitches to K 1st 2 then Bregman fouls off 8 pitches.
3rd attempt cakewalk.
early- FB FB breaking mixed with FB break high FB in the 4th any pitch any part of zone
was about 55% FB, mixing that many curve slurve and change prevented them from having any good swings -

Conquest is time consuming but definitely the easiest Conquest Extreme they’ve put out. I have 3 strongholds left to complete the map and with the strategy I used I did not play above Veteran for any games.

I breezed through the moments, not difficult at all but not as easy as I thought initially. Showdown seems like the real challeng.
I lost twice to Helsley (there’s something about his delivery that throws me off and I am always late) I will have to do BP against him to time him. The third time Chapman beat me because of my own mental error. I’ll get back to it tomorrow and then conquest on Sunday to relax.

I got lucky first time facing Chapman, he threw a fastball literally down the middle and took one swing
Against Ryan, the gold Kirk Gibson hit a huge 2 run homer with about 8 outs I believe. Then I got a man on, bunted twice lol and got him in
If you can go into facing Randy with all 21 runs, it’s not that bad
-
I’m wondering what is easier. Skip Ryan and need to get 10 against Randy with 25 outs, or hope to meet Ryan and then Randy is not that bad.
Now I have lost to Chapman both times so far.
-
The Conquest vs All Time Teams Would be very cool.
-
A little over casual player here and from reading all your comments it’s giving me motivation to get it done. Almost done with the Kraken conquest so moments will come next. Then some showdown. Wish me luck hope to be one of the few to get the cards earlier rather than later.
-
This Extreme Breaks down like this is in my opinion.
Conquest/P5 Wood- a monkey can do them but big time commitment /grind.
Moments- average player with determination can beat these, some luck goes a long way.
Showdown- much tougher than last one. Will take skill, determination and some luck.

This is a great breakdown. I was thinking of doing enough moments to get Wood and then use him to get get the Finest Last Call PXP mission done. That would get some of the Extreme Missions and the Last Call out of the way. That may be a little much just to do the Finest Last Call, though. I already have a couple of Finest pitchers I can use for it, but I thought being able to eliminate two missions at once would be nice.
