Bought both packs. Got rare both times. I ended up selling twice so that I could finish the live series collection. First time in years where pack luck worked for me. Made 400k stubs in seconds.
Soto and Rodriguez or Clemente and Randy. Don't know if I made the right call. Probably not, but I like check marking things lol.
Was going to post something like this. I'm lucky I'm winning in ranked seasons but I'm struggling big time.
I spent a weekor two grinding my rtts player and followed the suggested grind of changing pitchers to 1 overall and putting it on rookie. Super slow 84 mph fastballs right down the middle for 20 hours or so. Then went back into DD and now all of a sudden, 500/600 ranked fastballs that are going 95 mph are a blur and I'm swinging once the catcher has it in his glove.
I used to put up 10+ runs in those ranked ratings and now I can't hit. Have no clue how long it will last but hopefully I adjust soon. Don't know if it was worth grinding to get a created player.
Been playing this game a lot the last 3 years and I've never pulled a 90+ diamond.
This year I would say I'm averaging more diamonds then the average. But the last two years were brutal.
Been playing this game for years and I still don't know how to do it. I think I'm better off not knowing. I could see how it would be tempting. Like another post mentioned, it's easy to justify when it gets done to you every third game.
Edit: are we talking about freezing or is there a disconnect cheat now?
Got back in for just enough time to start a new showdown and then it kicked me to the dashboard. I'm sure that one won't count just like the other one I started 30 minutes or so ago.
Not gonna lie. I usually roll my eyes at posts like this. But it's finally getting to me. It's getting ridiculous.

Would be awesome if the show kept track of people's pulls and percentages. It would be fun to see.
I've yet to pull a diamond this year. I look to be keeping up with my luck from last year sadly.
You can see your open pack history if you go on theshow.com and view your inventory.
Thanks. I took a look. I don't feel like going thru page after page and counting how many biah, etc packs I've opened though. Would be cool if they had that all added up for you. Would be easy to use for bragging rights.
Thanks though.
I hated showdown last year but with ranked getting on my nerves, I've decided to take a break from that and grind the showdowns. I've finished 1 TA division so far. I figure you can finish one showdown in 15 minutes. So 4 an hour. That's 60 points. 2 hours (2.5 hours maybe) plus doing the exchanges will get you a division (150 points).

I can't understand why you wouldn't want the pitcher quick pitching when you're batting. Let's get this 9 inning game done as fast as possible.
The only reason I can imagine why you would want the pitcher coming set before starting his windup is that you think his placement won't be as good. The only way you could think that, is if you struggle with placement and I'd bet money that you quick pitch more than you don't.

Keep them till you have 50 plus and then open them all at once. This allows you to only get disappointed once when you don't pull a diamond and you will be able to confirm the odds are bs. If you open them as soon as you get a pack, not only will you wonder how many packs you've opened and if the odds are bs, but it will eventually result in you getting disappointed multiple times.
You don't get a diamond in every 50 packs. LoL. This isn't how odds work.
Yes I know. I'm fully aware how odds work. Thanks. My post wasn't serious.

Fastballs when home = easy. As slow as a change up.
94 mph fastballs on the road = have to cheat to catch up to it.
Why is this? This is consistent. Something to do with the internet of the home team? Is there anything I can do?
It’s called latency. And yes it sucks but I just won on the road so it’s not game breaking. But if you don’t wanna deal with it if you have any slowdown on your pitch or lineup selection then you know you’re road team and just back out til you get home
Great idea. Cheers.

How many packs are you buying to get rid luck? 20 and 21 and I've pulled jack.
I was getting that every 20 seconds or so in a ranked game. We were able to finish but when I left the end of game screen to go back to DD. It kicked me back to the home screen. Hopefully my win counted.
How do I increase my ratings? Is it only road to the show now?
Sure wish this thread was made yesterday 
. Would of saved me a lot of time.
Where do I even create my player?

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong when stealing? No matter how perfect of a release i get with L2, the runner is always delayed before he runs. The only way I can steal is if I release L2 a good half second before they start there throwing motion. 9 times out of 10, it's either a really bad jump or I run before he starts the throwing motion.
Is it really just lag from my TV?
- Don’t get a lead
- Tap L2 immediately when you are wanting to steal. Don’t try to time it up yourself. When you tap L2 the cpu will start the runner for you, You don’t have to worry about it. This is where RNG is your friend. If your runner has a high steal rating & base running rating he’ll get a good jump 8 out of 10 times.
Gotcha. Thanks.
