God Squads, Strike Zone and Hitting
-
I really have liked this years game, but I really have had a hard time grinding the DD ladder to WS. I don't spend money on stubs, I just don't like to burn the money. But it seems like so many people have just absurdly stacked teams. As I climb it becomes nearly impossible to get them out.
That leads to next point. The strike zone. With the advent of next gen systems, people are seeing the ball better than ever. It's much harder to fool people, so you have to rely on dotting. But the strike zone feels much smaller, and when i paint corners often I'm not rewarded. I've had a number of AB's that carried on simply because the CPU said "Nah, not a strike". It's funny when the announcers are like "How do you take that!?".
So with facing so many stacked teams and not being able to effectively rely on good pitching, I'm at a bit of a loss. I'm sure I can make WS, but this year will be much more of a grind up than years past. Facing three teams in a day that have Randy, Babe and Mickey 99's is just rough!

You don’t have spend a dime to get a “better” squad, just gotta finish the programs, and collections.

You're absolutey right, but the time sink is tremendous. And that's OK, but I guess I need to stop playing ranked and simply focus on programs for a while. I actually like the game, but it feels way tougher higher up this year

It’s 100 percent harder once you get to the 700’s. There are tons of great cards you can get with just a little bit of grinding.
