Pulse Pitching – More Challenging Than It Looks
I’ve been messing around with Pulse Pitching in MLB The Show 25 for a change of pace, and I gotta say—itCheap mlb 25 stubs’s trickier than I expected. At first glance, it looks simple: just time the button press when the pulse is smallest. Easy, right?
Not quite.
The challenge comes from the pressure of timing that pulse in different situations. With runners on base or in high-leverage spots, the circle seems to speed up just enough to mess with your rhythm. It’s not as visually clean as Meter, and not as precise as Pinpoint, but it gives you a strange balance of control and randomness.
I’ve found that Pulse works best with pitchers who already have high control ratings. You can’t afford to miss that timing with a guy who’s wild to begin with. But when it works, it’s fun and satisfying—especially for curveballs and sliders where the release point really matters.
The only downside? It’s not great for people with slower reflexes or those who play on small screens. The pulse animation is fast and can blend into the background, making it tough to time correctly in high-stakes moments.
I probably won’t stick with it as my main method, but I appreciate it as a middle ground for players who want more input than Classic but less pressure than Pinpoint. Curious how many people here use Pulse long-term?
