Bro it's feedback to help improve the game. I freely admitted that I'm not good and guess what I'm not the only person who's not good at the game there's probably a whole lot of us. Your comment is not constructive or helpful at all.
Hello this post is not meant to be a hate post it's just meant to be feedback.
I am not very good at this game. I own and I admit that, I'm like a 400 or 500 skill level in head to head. If that. I very often struggle to make hits and score runs.
I've accepted that I'm not that good and I still enjoy building a team by doing all the offline content, And then I like to go online occasionally with my team and see if I can get some wins.
The showdown mode broke me. I ended up uninstalling the game because of it.. that game mode is actually quite fun but it's all or nothing nature is extremely frustrating for bad or new players. You can spend an hour on a run and if you don't beat the final boss you get literally nothing. Maybe some XP but that's it.
I really feel like if you make it to the final boss and lose you should still get at least one ticket I mean what's one ticket it's nothing. But it's better than literally nothing... If you win you should get five and if you lose you should get one. Maybe make it so you can't skip to the end(and still get the 1 guaranteed ticket) if you're worried about people just cheesing to get one ticket. But if you actually play through it all beat the middle boss and then lose in the final getting nothing is heartbreaking.
It happened to me four times in a row and that combined with the fact that I suck and lose online all the time I was just like what am I doing with my life why am I playing this game.
I hope this feedback is well received If a change such as this were to be made I will probably reinstall and come back because at least then I could feel like I could grind away and get the characters I want even if I'm bad and I lose to the boss half the time or more.
^ that's better. That was actually some valid input and feedback.
Anyways. Guys I'm not bashing on your game I'm not saying your favorite game sucks okay That's not what I'm saying. I actually think it's a really good game.
I just feel like the showdown mode should offer some sort of reward If you play through the whole thing and then lose to the boss you should get one ticket. If you spend 45 minutes to an hour grinding a showdown run and then you lose 12-12 while sometimes getting shafted with bad luck like perfect perfect double plays. It just sucks and when you're not a very good player it really hurts the enjoyment.
I feel like this is one aspect in which they could improve a little bit. Overall it's a fantastic game.
And who knows. While we are grinding away getting 1 ticket 1 ticket 5 tickets 1 ticket 1 ticket 5 tickets. We might actually "git gud" along the way.

I can understand the complaints about struggling on Showdown. What I dont understand is the complaints about "all or nothing". Just defeating the mini boss gets you stubs and a pack and XP. To complete the Showdown, you have to beat the final boss. Why is that unfair? It's how video games have been set up for ages.
Look at Returnal. The first big PS5 release that utilizes the controller and graphics. You must complete the game in one run through without dying. When you die, you have to start again from the very beginning, with rooms randomizing, and there arent save points. That is "all or nothing".
Showdown is what it's supposed to be. You have to defeat the final boss to win, if not you must restart to attempt it again. Getting vouchers or credit or whatever for just getting to the final boss, then people could skip to the boss and collect and quit out without even playing the mode.
You don't get a pack for beating the mini boss... You're talking about the inning program showdown. I'm talking about the team affinity showdown. All you get for beating the mini boss is a diamond hitter and a diamond perk for your showdown run.
It is all or nothing as far as I can tell the only rewards you get is XP. Unless you beat the final boss and then you get five tickets.
I appreciate you all leaving tips and constructive advice. I still feel like if you play the whole showdown but you end up losing you should get one ticket. I don't see how that hurts anybody. One person said that that cheapens the experience for winning... How? You get five tickets for winning That's five times what you get for losing. Only thing I'm saying is that if you're bad or new or maybe you just get unlucky and you end up losing to the final boss after spending 40 minutes to an hour grinding The least you could do is get one ticket. One ticket is just three points in the program but at least that would make you feel like you didn't 100% waste your time. And it's an incentive to keep trying and grinding and get better.
Again thank you all for your constructive feedback and tips.
I reinstalled the game today lol because I'm addicted.
I'm going to try some of the feedback that you guys have given. I do still wish that they would add a small something for your time but I guess we will see if they read and if they agree with me or not.
Either way clearly I just need to get better.
Thanks for the advice everyone I will probably end up reinstalling at some point and try again
I still hold to my opinion that there should be a small reward guaranteed regardless. People talking about participation trophies and failing their university class I don't understand you. We're not talking about a championship tournament and we're not talking about getting your degree to become a surgeon. This is a video game it's an offline mode just meant to have fun and grind the game and eventually earn some players. I don't see how somebody grinding and spending 40 minutes on a showdown run, only to lose, being rewarded with one measly ticket hurts anybody. You who are much better at the game win's yours and gets five tickets which is far more meaningful. Who is losing here? We're talking about an offline mode in a video game here.
Anyway I've said my piece not everyone is going to agree but thank you for those who have offered advice and been constructive.

If thats the case I'll just skip to the final boss and quit out each time and pile up tickets in no time. You see the flaw?
I said in the post that they could make it so that if you skip to the boss you don't get the one ticket like it disables that.
if you make it to the final boss being down 10-12, 8-12, I don't think you should be rewarded for failing, thats just my opinion and you already earned your stubs back by that point, just be patient in showdown, its a great way to improve, pop on some Netflix and just play away
See I disagree because if you make it to the final boss with 8 or 10 runs that means that you earned those 8 or 10 runs. That means you put in the time beating the moments and then picking out your players and perks and then setting your lineup. Sds didn't give you those 8 or 10 runs you earned them by grinding the mode it takes time and you have to get multiple wins. You would have to beat four or five moments plus the mini boss to go in there with 8 or 10 runs. By doing all that I feel like you should have earned and be guaranteed at least one ticket.
That's just my opinion I guess you know not everybody's going to agree.
Patience is one thing that people keep saying and I think that's true I need to be more patient.
