Congrats on cheesing!

I’ve single handily made multiple members on here hide from me because they can’t win a debate against me regarding how bad hitting is.

I’m actually kinda proud of that.

imagine thinking people ignoring you is people hiding from you because everything someone says gets met with "HERE'S MY ONE SWING THAT WASN'T IDEAL THIS IS THE WORST GAME I'VE EVER PLAYED BUT HERE I AM STILL PLAYING AND SPENDING 12 HOURS A DAY ON THE FORUM FOR SAID GAME"

Haha go away man, people aren't talking to you because you don't talk to people you just yell at them for liking the game, don't worry little billy, i'm sure there's a patch coming soon to make the game easier for you lol

@skepple15 nah cheesing would be if every pitch thrown was KB, but a good player would know how to mix & match

Congrats on cheesing with a common pitcher and using a pitch that SDS has never been able to properly balance!

This will age well I’m sure, sorry you lost your last game to someone better than you.

Last night I went back and played a game of 19, 20 is soooo much better, fastballs in 20 seem faster, off speed pitches in 20 are slower, the pci changes are amazing in 20, heck even the strike zone in 20 is better, in 19 the zone is black and it’s actually quite distracting. You don’t have line outs galore in 20, if you can consistently square up the ball you’re going to get rewarded, you don’t have the ridiculous constant bloops that 19 has. The analog meter in 20 goes so much faster which is nice. 20 has issues with fielding and to a lesser extent pitching but overall 20 is a much better game.

Go back to letting us see our opponents ratings on this website, the game plays so different on HOF and All star we need to know what level we're playing on, this was a dumb feature to take away because some low level players got upset when people would search up their ratings.

@skepple15 if some is spamming KB every pitch then yeah their cheesing, if I’m using my whole pitch inventory and am EFFECTIVE then theres a skill gap. All the hate for Knucklers since the Dickey days of 13 continues haha

It's ok you need to exploit to win, a lot of us don't but you do you!

@bonion said in Knuckleballer Ryan Feierabend:

@skepple15 theres no exploit w a KB pitcher. I myself would love to go up against one. But I also know how to pitch with one. I can throw your timing off for a solid 3-5 batters till you’ve adjusted. Ain’t like I’m using him the whole game, now that would be cheesing and dumb. To call me an exploit player when I’ve been playing the game just as long as you is disrespectful. My post is not a flaunt, you got scrubs announcing they pull Trout then go <.500. you go INTO their post calling them cheesy and an exploit?

A common pitcher being able to be that effective is an exploit, sorry. Like I said, most of us here don't exploit to win but we're actually good at the game...

@bonion said in Knuckleballer Ryan Feierabend:

Point is a KB out of the pen, if used properly, can be EFFECTIVE don’t matter if card is common or not. End of story

Nah, it's an exploit, if a common is that effective there's clearly something not right and that's the fact that they've never been able to balance their effectiveness properly, that's why no good players use knuckleballs, they know how cheesy it is. but like I said, you do you, you need it, others don't.

This thread is laughable lol

I know a guy who has a zen, it legit doesn't work.

Because nothing about your record says they should quit..

Definitely nothing wrong with contact swings, they’re not overpowered at all...

I mean it’s pretty simple right? Contact means bigger PCI and lower exit velo. Power should be smaller PCI and high velo.

Or am I using too much common sense?

That’s not the case though, contact is getting equal t better exit velocities than normal swings and I’m not talking about just perfects

But as always some people will fight to have something that benefits them kept in the game at all costs smh.

Meaning contact swings are still broken?

contact swings aren't broken.. You were always able to get exit velos with high power guys... Lower power guys still aren't getting exit velos...

Incorrect, 55 power Robbie Alomar is getting 95+ mph exit velocity using contact swings...

lol 95 + still isn't even warning track power on most parks. I think the issue you guys are having and don't know is that contact swing makes for easier perfect/perfects which allow for decent exit velos. The velos are still below normal and power swings tho...

My guy, that’s 55 power getting 95 mph exit velocity on a contact swing.. that should not be a thing don’t reward guys with a bigger pci and opened up timing window using circle, simple as that. As it currently stands contact swing is way too over powered, contact swing with low power guys shouldn’t be putting rockets into the gap with consistency

Lol this was a funny read

"Feather batting" doesn't work online and only seems to work in homerun derby where pitching from an opponent isn't random.

You just got beat. deal with it.

Yup I guess so

Legend in DD is the most difficult thing in the game.. online rated legend is not on the same level.
