Now here’s the main reason why you really need to play a lot of Ranked battles - those Ranked coins can add up, and as you earn more, you will be able to purchase items at the Ranked Shop, which a special in-game store exclusively designed for this form of currency. Use Your Ranked Coins To Improve Your Team Also, you will get to earn Ranked Coins regardless if you win or lose - in the Normal tiers, winning a game will earn you 6 Ranked Coins, while losing will earn you 2.Īt the end of each Ranked battle season (these last one week, or seven days), you could win rewards depending on your tier at the end of the season - Normal III, for instance, will get you a Bronze Player Pack and 100 stars (the game’s premium currency), while qualifying for the prizes at Legend I will give you two player packs, two Grade Increase tickets, and 1,500 stars. We would recommend focusing on this mode once your team’s overall (OVR) rating is around 75 to 80, as the game will suggest a lot of managers whose teams have 80 OVR or better! Winning a game will earn you some points (12 in Normal), while losing would get your score docked by a similar, or identical number of points. Going back to Ranked battles, the game refreshes its Match Lists every eight hours, and automatically suggests players close to your Battle score. 1/leadoff slot for fast, high-contact players and No. 2 in the batting order, despite how MLB teams traditionally use the No.
(Also, don’t be afraid to make some manual switches - we’ve noticed that the game often places power hitters at No.
Once you’re there, you can choose between Battle Lineup and Club Lineup, and make the necessary changes - to simplify things, you can import your League Lineup (with DH) onto your Battle Lineup, assuring that you have the best possible offensive lineup and pitching rotation/bullpen possible regardless of mode. Just as you normally would, go to Team Management, tap on Lineup, and tap on Other Lineup on the bottom right of the screen. Naturally, you’ll want to make sure your lineups are set for Ranked battles, and that’s where we should tell you that the lineups for League play are separate from those that you use in Ranked/Friend battles and Club play. Once you’re able to level up your existing players and bolster your lineup with the players you acquire through Player Pack pulls, you can try your luck in the Ranked Games, where you will be competing against other human-controlled teams as you try to move up from one tier to the next - you start out at Normal III, but as you go on and improve your roster, you could go all the way to the Legend I tier, which is the highest available tier in MLB 9 Innings. Play Those Ranked Games And Be Sure To Set Your Lineup
This time, we’ll be covering Ranked and Friend Battles and Clubs, talking you through some of the game’s other features, and discussing some in-game situations that we didn’t cover in our beginner’s guide. However, there’s more than just League Mode in this title, which is why we’re back with another MLB 9 Innings 19 strategy guide. While we didn’t make it explicitly clear at that time, these tips were mostly designed for those starting out in League Mode, which, due to its AI-controlled opponents carrying default lineups from the 2019 MLB season, is the easiest mode to play. Our MLB 9 Innings 19 beginner’s guide mostly focused on the basics of batting and pitching and some of the simpler in-game mechanics that every first-time player needs to know.
Aside from the option to play full MLB seasons (all 162 games of ‘em) or abbreviated ones (as short as 40 games) in League Mode, you can also challenge other human-controlled teams, may they be managed by random gamers from around the world, or by your own friends. MLB 9 Innings 19 is the second such game we’ve covered in recent weeks, and this game comes with all 30 MLB teams, up-to-date lineups for the current season - we’re talking all real-life teams and players here - as well as a variety of features that could help you improve your team, may it be by adding new players (or even some players from way back in MLB history, if you’re lucky and patient enough) or training the ones you already have. Com2Us, the same developer that released titles such as Chain Strike and Summoners War, is one of several companies that recently released in-depth, feature-rich games to celebrate the start of another Major League Baseball season.
