In this video I go over the new captains pack and point out the limited quantity of them you get in diamond dynasty. Coaching and Inquiries: cj12kyt@gmail.com Follow me for live content at / cj12ktv
Great video man, I wanted to do a braves theme team, and you said Dansby & Maztek were both good. I think I found my choices for when I get them in the XP path 🙏🏾.. you just earned a new sub.
Thank you for this video!! I 100% agree with you on slap swings. I'm usually trash with them, but Mondesi has been smacking that thang for me since I picked him. 🙏
IDK I am not picking captains as a single card. i want the boost for my Astros theme team. But same would apply to other good live series squads. Braves and Dodgers with double captains would be terrifying. Then i would use any extras as single players
I raked with the Dansby world series card in 23, and the Braves theme team might be glitchy once the Buxton boost gets outclassed, so I'm taking him over Mondesi.
Gallo looks like a budget Babe Ruth on the Buxton team and his theme team should be better. I wish the Show would make theme teams more viable and let us choose from every team a player has ever played for to use as our theme team,that would open up theme teams so much. I got Dunn and as a Reds fan i would like to get their 3b captain also but i might go with one of the other ones mentioned. Do pitchers count towards a hitting Theme team captain? It looks like they changed the buxton requirement from 13 to 11 batters in your lineup which is much needed to lower these requirements.
Love the video!! Only small thing I’m gonna say it cmonnnnnn syndergaard was like the best pitcher in the show for like 3 years straight back in the day
Can someone help clarify!!!! I picked gallo for example but when I put him in the lineup, it seems as if you have to have a bunch of rangers players in your lineup to get the boost. How do these captains work?
Great video my dude! What would make this greater would be if you ranked the top 5 best overall hitter and pitcher captains to choose from. I hit 225k xp last night and literally studied every pitching option. The top 5 I came up with is this: 1) Bard: His sinker is literally celestial and absolutely heavenly divine. His slider breaks like a Frisbee thrown at 92. Best pick, imo. 2) Seranthony D: 125 H/9 instantly makes him #2 on the list, if not #1 for most ppl. He throws 100, with a Sinker that hits 97 and breaks literally like a Circle Change thrown at 97, lol. He's very good. 3) Taylor Rodgers: Best Lefty choice, imo. Best control on the Slurve I've seen. 95 Sinker break is insane. And 4 out of the 5 Best pitch mix. If the game didn't already have great lefty relievers, I'd rank him #1. 4) Bautista: If Bautista didn't have the same LS version, he'd also be a must buy for me. Only problem is no sinker or cutter. But his slider 99 break is amazing, with 103 mph fastball and carefully mixing in the splitter makes him very good. 5) #5 is preference really. There's maybe 3 more options with their strengths and weaknesses. They are: Joe Kelly, Nen, or Matzek for obvious reasons. Now, If you are brave enough to go with a SP: there are only 5 options thay could make my #5 rotation slot. But I'd have to Parallel them to 5 b4 jumping into ranked. 1) Sonny Gray: Don't laugh, lol. His H/9 at 93 is good, 98 is better. His Sinker, Slurve, Slider combo with his change are good off balance pitch mix. 2) Darvish: Sinker, Cutter Slider = meta. Can hit 98, but u better Parallel to 5 to raise his h/9 to 83. 3) Taillon: u better have 7 Pirates to boost his h/9 by 5. And Parallel him to 5 b4 jumping into ranked. 88 h/9 is much better than 78. Anyway, he throws 99 4 seamer, 97 Sinker, with a 89 slider and 87 circle change. Also his Knuckle Curve is a good slow chase pitch. 4) I was gonna throw in Carrasco. But I lit him up when I faced him. Reason for this is hos pitch breaks are great. He also has a Sinker, slider, and change combo where the ball does some magical things. But not when I faced him 😂 5) Eovaldi: I'd never choose him. But for the Bosox fans, he could possibly work as a #5. He throws 100, has a Cutter, Slider, and split combo with a crappy curve u should never throw for a strike. He's interesting bc his break is very good on the cutter, and even 4 seam fb at 88 is very nice. There's my top pitching captains to get after studying, testing, and researching all the cards.
If you don't mind me asking, what is your top 5 for hitters? I'm stuck between taking Mancini, Dunn, Mondesi, or Swanson. But leaning away from mondesi because I don't use Buxton boost.
@AhJared. I'd take Dunn, 100%. I believe he works with the Arenado boost as well. With the boost, he's insane. Without the boost, he's still insane. Mondesi is good with thr boost, and not as good without the boost. Best thing about him is his swing, speed, and the fact he's a switch hitter.
I finished the Dodgers collection then took Kelly & Joc for the Dodgers boosts. Joc is just ok but the double boosts are insane. have Turner & Beltre on the squad as well👍
@@CJ12KYT any word on if they’re adding captains back into the store? I want to do a theme team but I have passed both hitting captains on the reward path and now cant get the right hitting captain…
@@CJ12KYT I could not for the life of me get to work so I thought it was patched I think I had a glitch but after you said it was still available I tried again and yes it still works thanks for the info
Only if you did not collect the card you picked first SDS was allowing players to collect them then trade them and then they patched it so if you have not collected the card your good to go but if you accidentally collected him like I did your now screwed with the one you picked if it was not Buxton cause he is so over rated and over powered for the start of the game
Im no money spent and inmade 58 million last year 25k is nothing if you rven sort of understand investing and flippint and buying dips. By dips i mean obvious dips like when they do a flash 90+ live series pack for 30k coins and then you buy in bulk
