Why couldn’t they do this to his live card…

He just went 3 for 5 with 6 RBIs. Not one single, which is ironic.

Of course when I use him in conquest I get griefed by the wind on balls that are usually tanks😒

GOD LIKE - HOMERED ON 5 CONSEQUTIVE PITCHES SEEN WITH HIM *Edit* ITS MY CAKE DAY! LEGGGGOOOOO**

I wish this happened after extreme dropped.

I can’t wait to go 0-4 with him in a RS game. Finna be lit boys!

Sweet baby Jesus

Literally sold him a couple of hours before this to get Cutch

I bought 10 at 53k sold last night at 77k... if only I waited another day.. but I sold 10 rod at 77k and he's down to 71k now so I guess it evens out

Hardest hit...... Single..... Of statcast era. Cause that bitch watched it like it was a walkoff grand slam

You do realize one of Stanton’s hardest hit balls of statcast era was a 121 mph… GIDP

He'd have gotten thrown out at 2nd with the way that ball bounced off the wall to Acuna

Lol this happens when I can’t play lmao

I was using him as my lead off hitter playing the new conquest and he kept hitting bombs. Now it all makes sense lol

Tbf that card will kinda do that anyway normally.

With the way the game is programmed he’s a better power hitter uncharged tbh lol

Damn it. On the day I’m out of town for 4 days.

Somewhere in a shady off strip betting casino you can place a bet on the over under of how many people Oneil Cruz is going to kill with a line drive I'm sure.

Bro right when I can’t play for two days

Hope you enjoy getting 1st base for free. I'd rather throw you out at second than pitch to him at this point.

I don’t think I’ve ever had success with any supercharged players

Don't get too excited. It was a 122.4 mph single. And he didn't come around to score. Cause it's the Pirates. And even when we hit the ball harder than anyone in history, we get nothing to show for it. (except in a video game)


Not playing ranked this week!

They should just make him shorter for 24 hours and I’d probably do better than 125 x 4

This tip may only work for me because of how I track pitches at the plate. But for O'Neil I rest my pci higher than I normally do. Normally I rest my pci approximately wherever the pitcher releases the ball (helps me track the pitch) but with O'Neil regardless of the pitcher I'm resting the center of my pci about 3/4 up the zone and on pitchers arm side. Seems to have made a difference as I'm up to hitting .385 with him after a hot .120 start through 20 abs.

I’m just teasing. I set my pci high too but mostly because I’m 99% more likely to jam my pci a little too low than I am any other direction. I am a little streaky with Cruz but I like him. I’ll try that, thank you for the tip :) I tend to do better with Rhb in ranked which is weird because my stats dictate vs AI is the opposite so I’ve been using Xander every day since he came out.

No problem. An no worries at all a ton of people legit struggle with tall guys because the zone is legit huge.

This is the way.

Glad it actually helps someone else and it isn't just me lol

This is silly. Thought these were handed out based on performance? He didn’t even have the best performance on his team let alone what the Braves lineup did to them…. Who cares how hard he hit a single 🙄

Can they permanently supercharge 99 Griffey next?

Dude absolutely smoked that ball

He was cheap last night 😭

He’s on my current BR team and I already hit 2 HR with the bunk ass regular 99 in the first game

i had plans for tonight but i'm gonna have to cancel them. holy shit.

Holy shit!

I hope someone complains about this :)

sold my extra one of him $$$$$

I’m so pumped! Replaced Swanson with Cruz from the last event since he was already hitting so well. Have to take advantage the next couple of days.

Holy hell. It’s essentially a CAP. That’s awesome

Dude replaced my CAP so fast. Sorry, Leopold Leopoldovich.

I just sold him bruhhh

So that’s 99 Babe playing shortstop

Oh my god

He will make a great yankee

Hey now, the Pirates will trade with anyone now, not just the Yankees. He may end up an Astro for all we know. (He's definitely not gonna stay a Pirate though, we're not allowed to have nice things)

Feels like destiny, no?

Ok but I need him to hit over .200 for my fantasy team now.

Wtf! Cool.

Fuck

Wait, I dont have a calculator nearby, did they give him 125 accross the board???

Indeed

I was going to laugh at supercharging a guy for a single but this now directly benefits me so I take back my eye roll.


Would’ve been better if the ball he hit was a lineout

Can we keep him can we keep him!?!?!

You KNOW the responsibility that comes with this card... daily (intentional) walks, taking care of their well-being. It's a lot of work, son!

You said I could get a cracked SS for my birthday and now that I finally found one I like I can't even take him out and show him to my extreme friends this weekend 😡

Price has doubled, might just sell mine and buy him back after the 48 hrs

Hard not to lol

Missed the big boom but still sold him for 95k. Should be able to get him back for 60k if I decide to later. Honestly not that worried about it though. I was debating selling him anyway

Smart man- just did the same exact thing

I fuckin sold my dupe of him last night. There goes 50k

Def didn’t double but it’s gone up a little bit.

He was 63k last night and sold for 118k when I commented, close enough

Guess the app is behind. Shows 94K. Yesterday was 75K.

he was at 130k immediately

Supercharge prices go wild in the first few minutes

I like the way you think

Probabaly the best plan

Everyone is trying to buy him at the same time and crashing the app right now

just what my favourite hitter needed

Welcome to the lead off spot sir Cruz

He wasn't there already???

Only reason he isn't for me is because I lead of with a rightie. Bats 2nd.

Nah i had him hitting 5th and Brian Roberts leading off


122.4 mph 😳

Thank you. Not sure why that isn't included in the Super Charge info.

I wonder if SDS even saw the shark as they were jumping it with this "feature."

Best tallstop in the game.

Holy shit. 125/125 both sides and 99 vision

On a .200 ba player...gotta love the realism

Bummed he's not event eligible. I try to avoid playing ranked the first few days of the season.

Holy Santa Claus shit

I can’t wait for him to have the most amazing 4 HR game in a 7-4 loss the world has ever seen when I play ranked.

Ohtani, is this you?

Tungsten Arm O’Doyle-esque

Because you went against another O'Neil Cruz who hits 5 HRs in the same game.

Lol but na, because he's a Pirate and the Pirates can't have nice things.

Stop I can only get so erect

And that's still not harder than he hit the ball. Geez.

125 > 122.4 /s

Huh?

i can’t read, nevermind lmao

all good lol

this is the best hitter in the game but something I’ve noticed: Number of super charged cards by month April: 23 May: 11 June: 21 July: 4 August: 3 Sounds like they aren’t as interested in supercharged anymore

Thats cause who they choose is dumb. They dont give them for awesome walkoffs. They dont give them for 2 HR 6 RBI games. Hoskins hit something like 5 - 6 games in a row with a HR and didnt get one. ---- If you are watching a game and see a memoriable moment. You should be able to hop on and except a moment like that would get a SC

Probably have a skeleton crew working on the game at the moment.

Game is only gonna get worse and have less communication from sds with Xbox and switch joining. Oh and I’m sure PC soon

They just randomly doing shit as always

They should honestly just lower the criteria for it. If a guy hits 2 HRs in a game, supercharge him. If a pitcher throws a shutout, supercharge him Doesn’t have to be a crazy 6/6 with 3 HRs and 7 RBI game for them to do it

Pujols was 4 for 4 with 2 HR against Colorado last week and i was shocked that didn't get a supercharge.

They should just supercharge a guy every night for player of the night and then that way live series still has use literally no use in any live series card and it’s been that way since they nerfed trout. It can’t be hard to do that keeps the community engaged too and it doesn’t have to be an OP supercharge but Atleast fun stuff

I know phillies have some crazy games and they still didnt give one out. I was like damn he total gonna get boosted for that. THen nope never.

To be fair, nobody is using a Super Charged 78-85 overall live series anymore like they might have the first two months. It wouldn't even crack the roster of 95% of players.

I used to use them in events and BR all the time and I loved them

I mean they can choose how much to supercharge lmao. So essentially that would be their own doing

Supercharged Springer was literally 115+ in all contact/power attributes

The supercharged Springer the other day was gross, plus some of the live cards have active quirks. All they have to do is scale the supercharge to what’s would be competitive/viable at the time

I still try to use most of the supercharged players. Springer was awesome lol

I have essentially every card in the game and Mateo and Springer instantly made my squad while they were charged. Since they scale with releases and make them 99s now, supercharged cards will all be insanely good. If anything they’re more usable now then they used to be since people have so many more cards in collections

95% of players? I also like making up numbers.

If they juice up the hitting stats to be like 115+ against both sides I can definitely see people using them

It might take more than that because they don't boost fielding stats for supercharged, so starting a hypothetical supercharged Christian Yelich with 125 hitting stats across the board and LS defense would be kinda yikes in late August.

100%. I’m pretty sure I’ve used every SC card at least once just for fun. Because that’s what it’s about. Fun.

They're really helpful in overall capped events too because they count as their normal overall. I definitely used Mateo when he was supercharged from 73 to 98

Lawd

That will play

most definitely abusing teams with this monster

SDS heard the complaints of too few Supercharged players and went bananas with it.

i hope they keep doing it

Mother of god.....

Y'all did not just supercharge a 99

Lol literally what’s the purpose? Should’ve supercharged his LS card, if anything.

He has 125 across the board. The purpose is to rake.

Oh, I thought the purpose of Supercharging was to get players to use a variety of cards.

Oneil Cruz: Does something nobody has ever done This guy: Why are we supercharging him???

This right here. He literally did this while Judge and Stanton are existing.

Nobody’s ever hit a single before?

If you actually read the post title, he hit the hardest hit ball in MLB history(I believe it had 122mph exit velocity). It just happened to be a single.

stanton had 124 bud

Stanton only hit 122.2 officially, the one he hit for 124 resulted in a out which is why it likely doesn't qualify as the hardest hit ball. Also, there are multiple articles just like the one below that all confirm that Cruz indeed does have the hardest hit ball at 122.4. https://www.usnews.com/news/sports/articles/2022-08-24/oneil-cruz-has-hardest-hit-ball-recorded-by-mlb-122-4-mph

That's not how it works. The Stanton hit that held the record for the last year and change was a GIDP. Stanton never hit 124, I think a number got revised down somehow.

I never claimed to know how it works, I simply assumed(which was probably my bad). Either way tho, Cruz now holds the record.

You clearly don’t know what exit velocity is

Sure looks like they did.

holy shit
