Best way to throw Knuckleball?

[bigball12]

I'm wondering, what is the most effective way to throw the knuckleball in this game? I'm a classic pitcher (although i could use meter). Sometimes I feel like putting 0 effort into the pitch, and throwing it way out of the zone REALLY makes it dance. When I load up my pitch, pinpoint it to where I want it, and max power it, sometimes it couldn't be farther away from where I wanted it.

Just looking for some opinions.

With knuckler I usually throw down the middle, perhaps varying the height depending on how much I need a strike. But this year things might be a bit different, since with the prominence of Dickey the (once-unrealistic) knuckle movement has been toned down a bit.

But the idea is that usually want to let the naturally unexpected movement do the job for you. You really cannot command knuckeball anyways.

I, as well, just throw it down the middle and let the movement do the work for me! If you move it around too much it can just get out of control, so I would just suggest to aim it down the middle and it should move enough that it's at least not right over the plate!

i use Dickey a lot and this year i have noticed it is more controlled if you correctly use the meter or analog..

obviously it still is unpredictable but if i want to go inside, outside, high, low i find it goes roughly in that area...

usually pitch high, low away to hitters and go up and in with 2 strikes almost works like a high fastball to a lot of hitters.
