<![CDATA[Circle change meta]]>Just for fun, while mindlessly grinding multiplayer path...I tried throwing nothing but change ups every game to any non switch hitter.

Its crazy how abusive this meta is - even fantastic hitters need switch hitters to stop it. Even when they know its coming, because Ive thrown it 20 times in a row. Low outside change up is just death right now on any same side hitter.

We need a Meta Police in all sports games - as soon as the new abusive OP strat comes out, the meta police get on the case and nerf it.

Makes them very easy to beat when you know whats coming every time.

I haven't noticed it being an issue on All-Star, and I've definitely given up some tanks on it. I've squared a few up myself too, but those could have been poorly located, so I'll keep an eye on that as well.

Its impossible to strike out decent hitters with low change up, cause they'll foul it off on all star (no matter how low it is!) - but when they put in play, the contact feels weak.

I haven't noticed this being an issue in events, which is mostly all I've played online lately.
