Our latest update focuses on quality-of-life improvements, community-requested features, and important bug fixes. Thank you to everyone who continues to share feedback with the team.
Community-Requested Features & Quality of Live Improvements
Multiple Event Leaderboard Reward Tiers
We’ve added support for multiple leaderboard reward brackets within Events.
This system gives us the flexibility to create varying levels of competition, with more challenging leaderboard brackets offering stronger rewards. If you’ve played through Season Reward tiers, you’ll be familiar with the overall concept. More details on specific reward structures will be shared alongside future events.
Disable Pack Reveal Animations
Players now have the option to disable Pack Opening Animations.
To access this setting, navigate to:
Settings → Reveal Sequences
This allows for faster pack openings and gives players more control over their experience.
Sort Inactive Players by Last Name
Managing your roster is now easier with a new sorting option that allows inactive players to be organized by last name.
Sort Inactive Players by Power Rating
We’ve added a new sorting option that allows inactive players to be sorted by Power Rating.
Whether you’re managing your roster or comparing players, this makes it easier to quickly find your strongest hitters.
Calmer Default Animations
We’ve adjusted the game’s default animations to be less extreme and less distracting.
Players who prefer a more streamlined experience should notice a smoother and more subtle presentation throughout the game.
Improved Currency Display
Gold and Cash balances are now displayed on Individual Game Mode screens and have been improved in select Store sections, making it easier to keep track of your resources while playing.
Recently Released: Shared Pitcher Lockouts
Last week we released a backend update that changed how pitcher lockouts work across game modes.
Progression Games and Event Games now share pitcher lockouts. This means players can cycle pitchers through Progression Games to better manage their rotations and keep their strongest pitchers available for Event competition.
This change is already live for all players.
Bug Fixes
Store Purchase Protection
Fixed an issue where tapping on a Store Item title could unintentionally trigger a purchase.
Win Streak Reset Fix
Addressed reported issues that could cause player win streaks to reset unexpectedly.
Tutorial Fix
Fixed an issue where a tutorial arrow could point players to the wrong location during the early-game onboarding experience.
Main Menu Lock Indicators Restored
Lock icons for features unavailable to new users have been restored to the Main Menu.
Level Up Rewards Display
Tier Up rewards now display correctly in the Level Up Rewards screen, with the exception of the current maximum configured player level.
Thank You
