Steamin’ Hot Takes!!!
-
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

Hot take: custom stadiums used in offline grinding are nerfed.
Another hot take: your all 99 hitting team in conquest is nerfed as well.
-
We need more Yankees.

I know you're joking; however, the ironic part is that the one Yankee that I actually would like a card of (Carlos Rodon) still only has a 83 live series.

I only played vs CPU to get a 15 speed double and I dont generally play with juiced cards, but who cares?
Vs CPU doesn't reward you, and they have made the grind trivial this year. If people want to play HR derby then let them.
Edit: or are you saying these things are actually happening...Im confused
-
@SaveFarris_PSN yes!!!! We miss Run it Back. The draft map is definitely filling that role.
-
Legends should be the ONLY players to get 99s until Finest drops.
-
I’ll give two more:
-
Diamond Quest sucks. If I’m putting that much time into a mode, the rewards should be guaranteed. I don’t care about tanking the card price. Make them No Sell.
-
Conquest has taken at least two steps back this year. The shark map was good, only when compared to the other maps we have this year.

DD only gets fun now during double PXP when you can actually P5 players for the majority of the community

Then you'll be glad to know it is back on today and lasting for a full week.

I highly doubt the majority of the community is obsessed with P5ing cards
I get there is a breed of player that finds this fun, and I totally can understand it, but its absurd to call them a majority -

No worries, I have thick skin. My point is that the majority of the community struggle to find time to P5 cards so double PXP gives them a fighting chance.
It’s also my personal hot take, we don’t have to agree. Hope your day gets better! Cheers!
-
I mean, if your hot take is the "majority of the community" only has fan p5ing cards, then yes I would agree that is a hot take.
-
@SaveFarris_PSN
Not a hot take, that's probably correct. -
@Barfy-Bad-Gas_XBL
Interesting. Not sure how most people will react to this...
