Showdown division difficulty?

SDS

I’m just getting in to showdowns. The only ones I’ve completed are the first and second inning program showdowns. I want to get FOTF players so figure I should join the showdown grind. I’ve head NL and AL central are the easiest ones, if anyone could rank easiest to hardest it would be greatly appreciated!

SDS

I'd say both Centrals are the easiest.

Both Easts are the hardest.

From my experience.

SDS

Yeah I’m trying to see what everyone’s opinions are to if I want a certain player out of a hard division I could just do MTO for them..

If you completed the 1st and second inning showdown they will all be easier IMO but from easiest to hardest its AL Central, AL West, NL Central, NL West, AL east, NL east. AL central is extremely easy but the AL west has better team affinity rewards, so I would start there personally

Really the divisional showdowns are easier than the inning program showdowns?? I wouldn’t have thought that. I didn’t have to much of an issue with either inning program showdown so I like to hear that, thanks for the breakdown!

No, not at all. I finished both the inning showdowns, the 2nd in 2 tries, and I've still never finished a divisional showdown in at least 30 tries.

The 2nd inning is easier, sure. But I fly through the division showdowns and took 30 tries to beat the 1st inning

Update- I just beat the NL central one last night without much difficulty. Because Hader was a relief pitcher he wasn’t a hard boss at the end. What makes the AL central and AL West easier than this?

SDS

Anyone who's been trying (and failing) at this mode early on and still going at it? Is it any easier, less RNG than before? Working any better?

The thing about divisions like the AL Central and AL West, is that they have a great number of great bronze/silver hitters. If you get hitters like Mark Canha and Justin Upton in the silver rounds, with Willie Calhoun and Khris Davis in the Bronze, you're set up very well. It's even crazier in the AL Central, with Dozier, Eloy, Moncada, Soler, EE, Sano, Franmil etc. I'd go after those two as much as possible in the week.

I just went back and finished the AL West. First Showdown I’ve finished ever, so I don’t know if they changed something or not, but I absolutely lit Verlander up.
