something is fundamentally wrong with core game systems in tournament play if the most viable strategy is "use these exact 26 cards and then coin flip your roster against 31 other people doing the same thing". the fact that experimentation, originality, and discovery are so discouraged by this system is just a real bummer. it was the same deal last year in bronze except the meta was "build this exact roster of groundballers and excellent fielders" and now it's just "build this exact roster of home run hitters".
as an aside, i know it's been mentioned before, but man something seems wrong with the offensive environment in the bronze tournaments... effectively impossible for any pitcher to have even moderate success. pretty much every pitcher is constantly hovering around 3HR/9 because of the power meta that is in command right now.
alright, rant over.

Haven’t played much bronze tournaments yet determine if the same rosters are being used. I did this “strategy” last year. Tried it again in Iron, this year, and found that rosters are more varied.
Pitching is a joke. While I haven’t found a recipe that keeps scoring down, I’ve had success utilizing a different strategy that I don’t normally use. Maybe this is the version of game the producers want, and it’s up to us to figure out how to beat our opponents at it.
