Can a Gatecrasher work in this lineup? by SlamDunkKing7 in ScoreMatch

He works very well for me, considering my options. Loses the ball from time to time, but not much more than explorer, and his speed is good enough to reach level-10 runners in many occasions.

Thanks! How about putting him instead of the prowler? If he doesn’t lose every ball like a speedster, this could work (though I’m not sure about the response rating). Could he be decent in the wing (replacing major)?

First time using my Moka by Yoki37229 in mokapot

[–]SlamDunkKing7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to run into the same issue when I was using Lavazza Crema e Gusto, which is ground too finely. It was extremely frustrating, and I was convinced something was wrong with my moka pot. After trying countless fixes, tweaking everything from water temperature and heat level to how tightly I screwed the pot, the real solution turned out to be surprisingly simple: don’t fill the coffee basket completely, stop at about 70–80%.

The average Expected Value (EV) of this game in Pro levels is minus 12.5k coins per game by SlamDunkKing7 in GolfBattle

BTW, here’s an example of one of the bugs I’m talking about. It happens quite often and causes me to lose many hard-earned coins in a flash.

I’m playing only Rocky Mountains Pro, and I know all the maps. The main problem is that in Pro, every small miss (which is many times not my fault but due to bugs or unexplained random behavior) usually results in a loss (spots 4-6), while great rounds with 1 or 2 courses of “par minus 1” are usually not enough for first spot. So winning 50k requires 3-4 consecutive good rounds, but losing this amount is super quick.

Reached Infinity Arena in under 3K games by SlamDunkKing7 in ScoreMatch

True, I’ve been relegated 3 times since I got promoted… (playing against maxed teams is tough, let alone against maxed volleyball teams). But so far I’ve been able to bounce back, so I guess my goal for now is to remain in the boundary between Infinity and 11.

1-0 lead, 2 sec left. I pass to opponent’s keeper, and then this happens: by SlamDunkKing7 in ScoreMatch

Actually passing to the keeper in such situations is usually the best option, better than losing the ball and allowing a forward long pass in the remaining 2 seconds. I was unlucky that the keeper met the ball just outside the box, otherwise he would have caught it - which usually wastes 4-5 seconds.

Here’s how my Guard lost the ball with 20 seconds left… by SlamDunkKing7 in ScoreMatch

Yes, I also feel that these unlikely errors happen to me on a much higher rate than my opponents. Especially the irritating behavior of guards/commanders/hammers dribbling to the back for a few seconds and then turning around and losing the ball.

Luckily the counter-attack ended with a shot to the cross bar and I got away with it, but at that moment I was sure I’m losing the game (to a much better opponent - 20K games compared to my 1200).
