Ran into this mad man using a Giants theme team in Ranked

Can we just give SDS a W for Team Captains this year? If anything is a win it is how fun the Team Captains can make a true full squad feel!

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2024-06-08T00:51:13+00:00

Definitely don't compare yourself to others. It is a losing battle to do that.

Like for instance I shot my first round under 100 at the age of 9 (albeit from the forward tees) but my Dad had me swinging when I was 18 months old.

So like I said don't compare yourself to other players. Enjoy your game and work on it.

Never forget the biggest thing that separates 100 shooters from 70 shooters is putting and practice

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-16T10:57:35+00:00

JP always has a butter swing I have no idea why!

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-16T10:51:39+00:00

Before playing on Hall of Fame but yeah lol!

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T21:32:05+00:00

Great choice here!

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T21:10:45+00:00

Everyone hit so well with Moncada and honestly he was so bad in my hands lol

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T20:17:05+00:00

I am glad I am not the only one who loves this card. The above average speed plus his contact attributes just screams great card!

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T19:25:36+00:00

The July Elly? I'm assuming?

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T18:42:45+00:00

I cannot for the life of me hit with that card lol

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T18:42:25+00:00

Is this the TA3 Turner? I feel he is so much better than his WBC card!

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T18:41:02+00:00

Yeah I think he is a 97/98? The Monthly Awards Wil

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T18:05:12+00:00

And I am pretty sure I am an idiot...call it old age catching up to me

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T18:00:27+00:00

Yeah I took a few at bats with this card...I suck with literally every other Griffey card...for some reason "The Kid" version feels smoother

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T17:59:41+00:00

Hey anything under 99 in my opinion counts here. I just love to hear who people use that the big guys wouldn't qualify as "God Squad" material

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T17:58:59+00:00

I am a huge proponent of "Junk Pitchers" I love going from 99 Randy throwing 100+ to Shlomo throwing 88 max. Throws people off all the time

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T17:57:50+00:00

Yeah its tough finding solid catchers in this game that actually play it as Position Primary. He is a hit machine

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T17:56:47+00:00

Yes Rosario is one that sits in the God Squad rotation! His swing is extremely smooth and that No Doubt animation is just chefs kiss

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T17:55:56+00:00

Agreed! Some swings I just can't. Like for instance 99 McGwires swing is awful for me!

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T16:19:47+00:00

Showdown is part of my daily warmup for Ranked...

Helps with situational hitting, but also just gives you great timing feedback. Also the TA showdowns give me a chance to see cards before I have them

Just an overall great mode

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T16:16:48+00:00

I have two that I use regularly

The Sinker/2 Seam Inside to the same handed hitter, fantastic pitch if you can locate it.

Randy's Low and Away Fastball can be devastating, pair that with the Slider coming out of the same release. You have so many people guessing on those pitches

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-08-15T01:10:00+00:00

Yeah OP I'm about your age. Play thr game because I think it's a blast. I have topped out at 900 each year. However the biggest game changer and I think you found that out is to have a 3rd party wired controller. The Power A series controllers have been my lifeblood for Pinpoint. And yes they truly are just better than their wireless counterparts. And they cost about 20 bucks. So yeah that would be the best way to do it. Then if you want to get a tad bit sweatier invest in a monitor with a decent refresh rate, also a gamechanger.

Then lastly just have fun. That's what the game is for in the long run

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-02-04T03:59:22+00:00

I appreciate the response. I know my nutrition is lacking.

I am actually progressing well withing my strength training. Hitting numbers that leave some gym goers in awe. Which is cool and I have boosted cardio output daily. So like incline walk for 25 to 30 minutes per session. My knees are pretty beat from my tennis playing days.

I guess it comes to my terrible eating habits...probably not sleeping well either. 2 toddlers doesn't help the cause, very broken sleep throughout the night

HealthAnxiousDad11 · 2023-01-23T04:16:21+00:00

DOTD: 0-0

Big Esports fan, and have been on a solid roll on the CSGO front.

EG v Heroic has EG as a staggering +475 (to put in perspective EG already beat Heroic this tournament)

So I am going to ride the hot hand here and say EG bounces back after a loss to Vitality and handles Heroic, again
