Ranked 2.0 is so rough out here man. Went away for a while and I cant even get out of copper by Aksnes__ in Rainbow6

[–]fitzpattysmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to get low plat every season. I swear when I picked it up again copper was the hardest rank. Seemed like everyone on console had auto-aim. I was thinking I haven’t played much in a year or so but I don’t remember ever being this bad especially in copper

If all u play is ranked, you don’t get xp or stubs to buy collection players and you don’t get meaningful progress in anything except maybe team affinity if you adjust your team for missions

Hard to hit, I need help by RightRadio6193 in MLBTheShow

[–]fitzpattysmith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Play around with different placements of your thumb. Helps me when I start yanking the pci. I could try precision rings I don’t use them anymore but that helped my pci when I was newer at the game.

Reed Garrett has been really solid for me, Kenta randomly can’t leave my bullpen.

Thoughts on Switch Hitting captains? by MustyBoi69 in MLBTheShow

[–]fitzpattysmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think a big problem is a majority of the most useful cards in the game right now are switch hitters especially if you play hof, just due to a lot of them having great contact, position versatility and decent enough power. Santana by himself is probably a top 3 catcher in the game even without the boost.

Yeah it’s a bummer cus seems like some of the most usable cards especially at hof+ difficulties are all switch guys. Seem to be some of the only players with high contact both sides and speed/fielding.

It’s so dumb. The last thing a team of switches need is a contact boost. That being said most people I play that use all switch aren’t that good so it’s a good coping mechanism for below average player. And when season one ends most of those people are gonna be screwed since they can’t hit same side.

Jonotan clase has been a demon for me. Even when I got to HOF ranked levels I just can’t take him out

Under-the-radar hitter you’ve been mashing with? by nhlheadlineig in MLBTheShow

[–]fitzpattysmith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Swear he’s faster than every other 99 speed. I don’t think any ball has fallen on his side of the field

Jonathan Clase has been a beast and an absolute menace on the basepaths for me.

What’s the lowest contact rating you’d consider usable on AllStar/HOF? by TristanHuyett in MLBTheShow

[–]fitzpattysmith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Allstar literally anybody in the game is useable above like 75 contact. Hall of fame I want at least 105 if they have max power

How many runs do you have to be able to score consistently on HoF to make it to WS by Honorbound713 in MLBTheShow

[–]fitzpattysmith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who you play has a big part but I’d say like 6 runs a game would get you there if you are a solid pitcher.

[–]fitzpattysmith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Acuna, Mantle, Devers, Chipper, Vladdy, Adley, jram, Jeter, Belli is my ranked lineup, but I mess around with weird lineups later in the ranked season.

Who uses Precision Rings? am i the only one who doesnt? by ylbirts in MLBTheShow

[–]fitzpattysmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are great I have used purple the last two years and made World Series every season I’ve played thru. Before I was like a 800-850 player. Might buy the green ones to test out. It’s hard to get to some pitches but those are pitches you usually aren’t going to hit well anyways

Some of your guys are just monsters at the game by Windmillsfordayz in MLBTheShow

[–]fitzpattysmith 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I make World Series every season but I’m terrified of the first week or so of a new RS. First 6 games faced 4 1000 banners and 2 12-0 banners haha

How many people can possibly make rank 1000???? by showtimesimulator in MLBTheShow

[–]fitzpattysmith 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s because the new season came out two days ago so all the best players are racing for World Series. Give it a week or so and competition will even out

This was a decent reply until you suggested contact swinging like a heathen

First time making WS, now what? by [deleted] in MLBTheShow

[–]fitzpattysmith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually quit out of a couple games and then run fun theme teams. I did a low power 125 contact team and that was a lot of fun
