    What are you guys’ biggest hot takes for the game this year? Here’s one: 99 should not be as juiced as they are until late in the year.

    Diamond Quest is good. But, the game needs a Team Building Mode (where goal is to slowly build different teams, theme teams, same country teams, etc).

    If you ask me that’s not a hot take. That’s genuinely a factual statement.

    I don't think this is a hot take. Completely agree

    Hot take - SDS gave up on Team Affinity and the power creep to please casual players who have now left. We should just now be getting the 99s.

    Hot take - the casuals are the ones who like the TA and power creep. its the God Squadders that are the reason for this

    Casual is a broad term however.

    Gameplay isn't as bad as people say

    Randy Johnson and John Donaldson should be retired

    Hot take: Pitch speeds are way too slow online.

    Hot take: sds abandoned TA and the power creep for those who could only play 5 hours a week or less, now those that played 20 hours + are now only playing 5 hours a week or less.

    Not necessarily a hot take. I think this is true.

    Well listen godsquadders, including myself, LOVE TA. As long as there are some juiced cards, hell yeah. But you probably are right about everything else.

    Hot Take: The Draft Conquest map is one of the greatest pieces of content SDS has ever produced.

    SDS uses quirks as a “buy stubs for chase cards” incentive. And all free cards make Cal Ripken look like a lazy, whiny [censored] in terms of durability.

    My hot take will always be allowing pre-game lineup adjustments in Ranked after opposing starting pitcher is revealed and nerf starting pitchers who come out of the bullpen and relievers how start a game by like 30% or more.

    The could do 99s all year, if they started with the b and C legends earlier giving those guys some play, the passed over guys and then slowly roll out the big boys and some of the switch meta guys as the year goes on. So the Younts, Stargell and Tony Perez’s of the world get some shine.

    parallel should go higher than 5, or be slowed back down. TA is a jumbled mess, too much going on. Events and BR need rewards back to how they were.

    Yup.

    Willi Castro should never be a top 10 card in the game, let alone best non live series collection card

    But why not let Paul Molitor be a top 10 card early on?

    And a salary cap mode (that cant be cheesed with bench commons) would allow 99s and 88s to both have value
