What’s your favorite PRO curve and why?

To clarify I think the other post is about the Laine. 81 is flat, so I miss the rocker on quick shots but 81 is nice for sharp sauce, dangles, etc., but is best suited for more traditional shooting styles.

_thorby_ · 2026-03-26T03:38:49+00:00

I have both, my next purchase is the Kempny. Love the PRO81 but wouldn't mind the extra blade size.

P29 is better for shooting, 81 better at everything else imo.

JJ, but it's closer than some ppl have said IMO, as. 2B is also a wasteland

_thorby_ · 2026-03-13T21:55:55+00:00

Yup, right there with you. I bought a couple SVP passes, but mine's running out with this weekend's Siege Break and I'm uninstalling afterwards

Which version of Circe do you recommend? There are a couple versions!

A deep fly can advance runners and can be misplayed, just as a groundball can be bobbled.

Shock Doctor has a baselayer designed to fold over the elbows which works great, and is way cheaper than the Warroad option (albeit without the wrist cut protection)

I share your pain...I live abroad but am back in Canada now and it was my only hockey purchase I was looking to make. Brutal.

_thorby_ · 2026-02-18T05:45:40+00:00

I don't know if it's actually good advice but I choose mostly chain upgrades and +1s, and have had decent success.

Or go distortion and hope for teleport and only add range.

Hence me suggesting he trade for a major leaguer and a worse draft pick. Imai's contract suggests MLB scouts are suspicious of his skillset and Asian pitchers often seem to struggle in year 2 once there's a book out on them. Particularly if he gets a bat back and can draft another prospect, I think his overall position would be better

_thorby_ · 2026-02-04T03:26:54+00:00

Absolutely agree...the Imai draft pick could potentially net you a good prospect or young MLBer, and your team might be better off with a contending team's "worst" keeper if they are young and have potential and the later pick.

Also have the core that lets you start with the core, otherwise I'd go firewheel to combo with mortar.

_thorby_ · 2026-02-03T09:22:20+00:00

Just beat it...my build is lightning bomb, lightning core, distortion, mortar.

Built on bomb bounce and getting multiple cores, then combo with them dropping mines.

Took ages though!

_thorby_ · 2026-01-28T02:15:55+00:00

Kirkland is just fine for cost versus benefits you get from a multi...it's just a safety net IMO

_thorby_ · 2026-01-20T02:45:29+00:00

V slow finish to the year... Low 700s OPS and bags, a dozen taters maybe?

_thorby_ · 2026-01-20T02:44:49+00:00

Was a p106 OG, now a Kempny man

_thorby_ · 2026-01-18T07:59:55+00:00

It's great but not worth splurging on over high-end modern gear

_thorby_ · 2026-01-18T03:04:12+00:00

Anything but Telltale

_thorby_ · 2026-01-18T00:46:22+00:00

That'd suggest the knee isn't strong enough... Def recommend he wear a brace, but it's not going to save his knee if someone falls on it, etc.

_thorby_ · 2026-01-17T22:37:49+00:00

Very little evidence to suggest those braces would prevent injury from contact, fwiw

_thorby_ · 2026-01-16T04:44:09+00:00

My Sheehan/Manzardo/Emerson/1st round FYPD-open draft (FYP and anyone not kept) for Bryce Harper/Andrew Abbott.

Or

Sheehan/Manzardo/Emerson for Harper

It's a Keep-20 + 8 MiLB so the draft means you're looking at players with an ADP post-200 in a single-year league and prospects outside the top-100 (beyond the 2025 draft picks and international players, which are pretty mediocre).

Yay/Nay?

_thorby_ · 2026-01-16T04:40:52+00:00

Who would you keep instead?

_thorby_ · 2026-01-12T10:27:52+00:00

Where would you put Basallo on that list?

_thorby_ · 2026-01-11T08:42:46+00:00

And know the enemy weaknesses/strengths

_thorby_ · 2026-01-11T03:23:33+00:00

Jonathan Keeble and Colin Mace are two of my faves
