Details for Verlander Showdown/Program?
-
Only thing new is Verlander that I saw
8 stage showdown, with no other rewards besides VerlanderJuan marichal and Buck ONeil added to vault pack
moonshot program has 4 or 5 rewind packs but all no sell
moonshot pitchers the free claim for the week
unless you like the moonshot event no real reason to bother this week
New conquest advertised for the 13th
-
Yeah, they never even hinted that the Verlander thing was a program. Was simply labeled as a Showdown from the beginning.
-
8 stage Showdown? Ugh. Just awful.
-
Yeah I figured. But some on this board insisted it would be a Program so I wasn't sure.

I'll do it eventually, but I just saw the update and turned off the game
To be fair, it is post world series now so Im not expecting much, season 3 has been more good than bad.
Oh one other thing: 99 team captains advertised for s4. not sure what that means for Finest

Yeah, I don't see myself even attempting it. I don't need Verlander for my offline play. I just got 4 99 overall pitchers in the WS program last night.

I love Verlander but with already having a rotation of:
Big Unit
Donaldson
Gibson
DeGrom
Skenes
Pedro
PaigeWant him but don't really need him.
-
I don't need him at all since I don't like using Astros who played for the AL version. I'll just do the Showdown because they are easy.

It’s all right handed pitching except live series Framber Valdez. You also face live series, Grienke, Verlander, Senga and Presley. It’s not too difficult, and the biggest deficit you face is 6 runs with the bases loaded and 20 outs.
-
I finished on my first try. It’s easy
-
I got to Senga on my 1st try but failed to score after tying it at 4 so on my 2nd attempt now

Thanks. That's good to know!
-
It's not difficult at all, I managed to do it on my 2nd attempt and your only down 3 runs against the final boss Verlander with 35 outs. I did it with speed and power
-
Its not difficult, sure. None of the showdowns this year are except I assume the extreme one.
But is it fun?

I am sure that for some people it is indeed fun. Just like I enjoy doing Moments when others do not.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS sure, it’s fun if you don’t hate showdown. It’s a matter of whether or not you want the card. I think it’s worth it.
-
The card is definitely worth doing the showdown for
-
Yeah this Showdown was super easy. Finished first try and none of the missions were even a sweat.
And I hate Showdowns.
-
I got down to my last 2 outs vs. Greinke, but it was kind of easy overall. The pitchers are all righty, except Framber. I still took the 'first' 99 Mark Vientos on the squad, who won 2 rounds at Citi Field with no-doubters. Go figure!
If you get it, take the Diamond Vision perk, not the Shea Stadium one
, along with the exit velocity ones.
Most pitchers throw meatballs, so you should be good. If you can get Goodrum, take him! He's still top 10 card in the game imo.
It's 9 rounds, so keep that in mind.
