My only loss so far has come to the Nemesis in my season mode. They destroyed me about 18-5 lol.

Hmm, I did not even realize that you could adjust egos independently for each aspect of the game. I apparently need to look closer.

Yep, it should be an option "Toggle Ego Mode" when you go select your ego.

Gave this a try and it was...mixed.

I did get more grounders from low pitches, especially if I got them on timing.

But the fly balls did become HR more. Gave up 6 hits, 3 of them HR...

This was on 60 pitching ego. Some of the grounders were pretty hard hit, too. It's like I got "low line drives" that of course hit the ground. I'm going to try 56. Maybe the HR hit off the wall more and I keep the more grounders on low pitches.

Good looking out.

I do wish though that the pitching Ego somehow was separated into "making my pitching harder" versus "making their hitting easier."

Yeah that would be nice for sure.

56 pitching ego was better. I still gave up hits/runs, fewer HR, I think one out of 12 hits allowed, and felt the difference in abilities (especially being the Crocodons who have less-than-impressive relievers) and saw more grounders on low pitches. I think I'll settle on it here and keep playing.

The SP I had has a forkball and he was getting grounders on it. I think using power pitching might be best with it and work up with your other pitches if you can.

DL tonight.

Can’t wait!!! SM1 was awesome. Looking forward to having great times with my son with this one again!

He played 4 seasons with the original one.

haven't done it myself, but I think you can split Ego into separate pitching/hitting/fielding ego's
