Post subject: | Flame Thrower, a Starter/Closer hybrid wth every ability-3 |
When I originally planned Flame Thrower, he was going to be a closer with E Stamina, B Control a 100-102 MPH Fastball, have Fastball Life 4, Poise 4, Star Closer, 4 Consistency, Dr.K, and Intimidator. He was also going to have a maxed Knuckleball and Slow Curve Ball. I didn't manage to meet ALL of these goals, but he was a hell lot better then I ever imagined. Not only does he have every pitching ability but 4, but he also has 105 MPH fastball, a Maxed 2-Seamer, and most of all, B Stamina! Yes, that's right, a B-Stamina closer! He had D at one point (higher then originally intended) but then along comes the Doctor (and boy did he do a Good Job!) raising his stamina to B with a little extra-curricular help (it was actually high C's, but I raised it when I had extra points at the end to 115). He sadly only has 151 C Control and does not have intimidator( I didn't date Lucy early enough and I forgot I hadn't yet because I reloaded so often and the first few times I did). He also has two more pitchers, the slider and the fork ball (level 1's) because he had a lot of extra points. Here are his stats: Name: Flame Thrower Team: Rangers (wanted a challenge if I ever used him for my life) Pitches: Left Form: Dice-K Top Speed: 105 Control: C (151) Stamina: B (115) Pitches: Knuckle Ball: 7 (Maxed) Slow Curve Ball: 7 (Maxed) 2-Seamer: 3 (Maxed) Fork Ball: 1 Slider: 1 Pitcher Abilities: W/Risp 4 Vs. LH Batter 4 VS Runner 4 Poise 4 Fastball Life 4 Spin 4 Release 4 Recovery 4 Good Low Pitch Groundball Pitcher Star Finisher Dr. K Good Pick Off Good Delivery Good Reflexes Battler (He is missing Intimidator, Gyroball, Lucky, and Safe Pitch) Fielder: Contact: 1 Power: 10 Run Speed: 7 Arm Strength: 9 Fielding: 7 Error Resistance: 6 Trajectory: 1 Fielder Abilities: Durability 4 Other: Closer Good Sense He is pale and has fiery red hair (Flames). The announcer calls him Thrower. He is 21, has a black and red bat, a light brown glove, and a red and a black wristband. In case your interested, his starting stats were (roughly): 77 MPH Control: G (85 or something along those lines, I don't remember that one for sure) Stamina: Low F's (35 or so) Breaking Ball Pitches/Abilities: None No Good Sense to start. I did Frank's arc for it and Battler. I will have the password up tomorrow. Hope you guys can use this guy, whenever as a starter, a closer, a long reliever, or both (such as you have an injury and all your minor leaguers are bad pitchers). I might use him in My Life and repost him with improve fork and slide balls and Intimidator (this guy gets so many K's that it shouldn't be a problem). By the way, for some reason his Automatic ERA is 32-92? I don't think he's that bad... |

Maybe it just assumes my fastball will get hit out of the park all the time or something along those lines. Who knows? I do have life on it. |

Good player but I wouldn't use him. Daisuke's form takes forever, I always end up trading him because of it. And sometimes purposely allow baserunners. |

With a catcher with a maxed arm, throwing 4, a pitcher with a 105 speed, and a good pick-off move, it shouldn't be too much of a problem. I did that for looks and so I could hit 104 actively. |

I also just love Dice-K's motions look. That's why I originally chose it (last year), but I then realized how you can max speed. I just have to pick-off a lot on the rare occasion someone gets on base. |

Overhand 20 is awesome. Same with Nomo's. |

Oops, just realized I haven't even put up the code yet. When I start releasing players on my team, this guy will be the first. I want people to have a reason to check it out, so I'm ruthlessly using this. |
