I really wish showdown awarded pxp. I largely avoid it because I feel its so detached from the rest of the mode because of this.
That and the all or nothing of it is terrible game design considering these can take an hour to do. And the tutorial is not at all representative of the mode
Update, did the starter conquest maps and finished the starter program now working on the Season 3 chapter 1 conquest map, got my stub count up to 42k stubs then bought the jump start pack for 20k just to get more cards and diamond LS
I was unbeaten in the regular season until I almost lost the last game. Ozzie Albies hit a 3-run HR in the first off Bob Gibson. Imagine that! We scored 3 in the bottom half. They went up 4-3 in the 3rd, but Tony Gwynn hit a no-doubt oppo to walk it off! I then cruised in the playoffs. We got the team that has Vlad Guerrero at catcher in the finals. We ran wild on him.
Never once paid attention to or cared about mini season stats. Having the same starting pitcher lose stamina that didn't pitch is a pain though. But then again all you gotta do is swap him out with a different pitcher
I finally grabbed that Joe Kelly after going 0-88 against him previously. His sinker can rise, his FB is fast AF. his knc dips away fast and tight. he's my nemesis.
I'm actually struggling to hit with him so I'm considering switching to Brandon Lowe. Might give Cruz more time but my patience is running low with him
I like Brandon Lowe's swing quite a bit too so I may grab him as well.
