I've been putting out this slider set every year for the past few years and I've gotten a decent reception every year. Basically every year I think Allstar difficulty is too easy. It's no different this year. How so? Put simply, I got the game early and in my very first game on Allstar default I was pitching a no-hitter into the fifth inning with Luis Severino and ended the game with a 2-hit masterpiece. I just feel like on Allstar difficulty, no matter how you tweak the sliders, you simply don't have to concentrate and focus on every pitch as you do in real life. In real life, mistake pitches are hit and hit hard. On Allstar, they are not. You can get away with MANY mistake pitches on Allstar because the CPU simply doesn't have the urgency required to compete.
So with all of this said, I bring you:
