Besides doing well in games and such, how can I use practicing to get more breaking ball points and get my pitches upgraded to higher levels? I usually only do the arc's of Siitch and Frank, and don't really practice at all. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

You definitely need to do a lot of breaking ball training.

Umm, yes. You're not practicing.

On the fourth week right? I mean I can get carryover points maxed out easy, if there is nothing better to do for free time events I can just practice right?

You should be practicing most weeks

Every week or when the coaches are there so you can possibly gain more scout and coach eval?

I practice until it's almost empty (about 3/4 of the way down)

So I do need to practice more. Probably do a check to see if there is any practices with a coach there, and then check the free time events to see if I want to do an arc, and depending on how many commands I have for the week will factor into that too I guess.

I only practice if the coach is there. If he's not, I check for a free time event I want, and if there isn't one, I skip the week.

Thanks dt, I was wondering about that. Same probably applies to batters and those technique point laden stats like contact and fielding as well.

D-Tigers method is probably the closest to mine. It really depends week to week, though.

I hardly ever skip. I made a YouTube let's play, you can see what my method is if you watch it... because I don't really know what my method is. :lol: I've just formed some habits, and I repeat that. If you want to see the rest of the LP, then google my channel, Boo1775.
