Post subject:  Satan (Gyroball, A Strong Breaking-Ball Ace for the Wii)

I've recently created my likely ace (unless I make someone better) named Satan. Considering the fact that he is on a fire/demon based team, I named him Satan (and I couldn't think of anything else that was team-themed. My best players names are team-themed). Satan is defiently one of the better Gyro-ball pitchers out their and I tried to not let the Gyro-Ball take too much away from him. He has a good speed of 95 MPH, B Stamina (sorry), F Control, an above average amount of abilties and an exellent array of breaking ball pitches (which is where he gets most of his power). Considering his speed, the Gyro-Ball can only do so much especially when I only have 4 Movement on my fastball, not 5 (couldn't get it). His pitches are:
Left: Level 4 Hard-Shutto
Lower Left: Level 5 Hard-Sinker
Down: Level 3 Palm Ball
Lower Right: Level 2 Curve Ball
Second Lower Right: Level 6 Knuckleball
Up: Level 1 2-Seamer
He has B+ (112) Stamina, F+ (103) Control, and as I mentioned before a 95 MPH pitch.
Pitching Abilities:
Level 4 w/RISP
Level 4 Poise
Level 4 Fastball Life
Good Pick-off
Good Reflexes
Gyroball
Fielding:
E (6) Run Speed, E+ (7) Arm Strength, D (8) Fielding, and F+ (5) Error Resistance. Connect is a terrible 1 and Power a horrendous 13. In other words, don't use this guy in the NL haha.
Other:
Starter
Morale

I believe he is the best breaking-ball Gyro-Baller out there for sure so far but his lack of speed, control, and abilities stop him from most likely being the best. I always prefer guys with plenty of strong 4+ pitches rather then 2 or 3 maxed ones (like I usually make). I enjoyed making this guy and seldom reloaded untill I got the Gamblers ring and even then I only did for breaking balls. I once had to reload 47 times for a 25% chance for one breaking ball early on which is probably why I reloaded so little (which is a chance of roughly 1 in a hundred million or a billion, I don't remember which but I estimated it in my head).
I don't have the password up yet do to lack of camera. Can anyone tell me how to upload pictures on my phone.
Edit: By the way, the computer estimated he would have a .93 ERA. It estimated my other Junk-Ball pitcher to have a .6 something ERA and he wasn't as good so I think its off. It views high breaking balls as more important then a variety which I disagree with based on my own experiences in the game. The computer knows how to hit a Junk-Baller after 10 games or so very well while they virtually never compleatly figure out a Breaking-Ball Pitcher. I also find it very easy to take out a Junk-Baller as I can sit on 1 or 2 breaking ball pitches if it moves and usually its such a sharp movement I can tell which right away. That way I can guess it quickly and correctly and hit it well. Also, while this may not work as well against the computer, having a variety of pitchers that are close to each other works better then a few maxed and some average/below average. That's why none of my pitches are maxed, maxed pitches (with the exception of the kuckleball) are so much easiar to hit and know what they are and where their going.

nice player!
i actually think he's the best simply because you can mix in one of those breaking balls with your gyroballs, make them be ready for anything.

Thanks mate, but I'm sure it will get beaten by other and myself (I won't be able to beat guys like Odwali, Welz, or J-Gao if he ever comes back, but I can occasionally come some-what close :mrgreen:) once we become better with this mode and figure out how much time we really need to spend. Speaking of which, I finally beat Mr. Welz at making a player! My Gyro-Baller was better then yours mate (haha, he was terrible because Welz was focusing so much on finding the Gyro-Ball). Its surprising it took us all so long.

I'll type it if I have to, but if you know how to post a picture from a cell phone, then please let me know. I'm looking on google right now. I'll give up in a half-an-hour or so if I can't find it.

It takes 5 minutes for some reason to send each message. I'm sending another player first (I sent his information first so I need to send the rest so I don't mix things up) then I'll have this one. Give me 10 or so minutes. I'll also have Zero, my closer, and my other starter soon.

You can attach more than one picture to save the time.

I went outside and finally got it (in 20-30 seconds per a message). Its so stormy out in New York that it takes for ever for my cellphone to do anything (not that its usually that fast, but it never takes more then 10 seconds normally). Here it finally is:

Let me know how he does :wink:

Thanks. I think I can make a better ace so this guy is probably going to end up being my number 2.

A number 2 is the second starter, the second best on your team. The ace is your number 1 starter.
