• They didn’t mess with the core gameplay, which is great. This is still SMB.
  
• The new scale of the players is nice, makes it look more like a realistic sim baseball game in terms of player size in the field.
  

• My biggest complaint is the new pitching hud. It’s spread out and hard to easily see what your looking for and more than that, it disappears when the pitch is thrown. This was really jarring for me because when batting, the pitchers move fast and the hud is always disappearing, you can’t check things mid at bat. My eyes were always trained to check the pitch count and the pitchers status each pitch… whether that was good or not idk, it was just super jarring that it disappears. Something I never would have thought about but definitely changed how I play the game.
  
• The sounds can be annoying but I just turned the volume down and you don’t notice it after a bit. (It is kind of silly to scale the players to look more realistic but then make a lot of super Arcady esthetic choices).
  
• The traits are fun in game. At first I didn’t pay any attention to them, but now 20 plus games in I am having more fun with them and paying attention to them.
  
• The UI is not great, they added a lot of extra clicks and weird sorting and viewing of stats on the free agents page. My biggest gripe (though it’s minor) was previously when you set your lineup you could just hit R3 and it would put the suggested lineup in. Now they added button clicks to use that. Not a huge deal, just seems silly to take that away?
  
• As a Crocodon fan, I love the new 2 way player Norm Fenomeno. He’s an infielder with a power bat and an A rated pitcher as well. Really helps with that weak bullpen. It’s a fun little twist to the lineup. Andre Candela got younger and fatter.
  
• So far I am indifferent to the new loyalty system, we’ll see how it plays out after the season. Right now I’d say the questions are kind of annoying but I appreciate them trying to add more dimensions to franchise.
  
• Before I started my standard franchise, I did a shuffle draft with super mega and legends players. I initially thought I would enjoy the legends, but playing a game with a mixed roster was kind of weird. I will probably revisit that when I make a custom league in the future, but my initial reaction was it wasn’t as fun as I thought it would be, the legends felt out of place. Just my personal opinion, I’m sure others feel the exact opposite.
  

Senate approves bill to avert national default, sending it to Biden’s desk

1. organic coalition building. Ren was able to leverage an early enchanter into a fairly loyal group before any other 3+ alliances had formed. The threat of the Red King then forced all the other duos into a coalition against them, led to Impulse agreeing to betray Dogwarts, etc. This was also helped by the rarity of cows on the map, since getting bookshelves was a big struggle. This might be hard to replicate, since in later seasons everyone already anticipated the need to form stable but smaller alliances (most explicitly in Double Life, where the rules selected a small alliance for everyone).
2. A sub point of (1): because enchantments were fully powerful but you still needed the core infrastructure to get there, that probably resulted in fewer, smaller teams. Unless I've forgotten someone, only two fully-powered enchanters got online, plus two villager trading halls. In later seasons, it was just a matter of controlling the enchanter, which got shared around widely (despite Scar's efforts to control it; it's not the enchanter that's an investment, but the effort required to get 30 bookcases), and villagers mostly haven't been used. Similarly, since TNT only used the core recipe, getting a good supply of TNT required investment, so having larger teams made sense. This was partly helped because players regularly logged in outside the game time to work on villager trading halls and Grian's gunpowder farm.
3. The prohibition on non-reds killing were pretty weak. So a single red life (Scar, Skizz) would start a fight, all the target's allies would jump in to defend them, and then all the Red's allies would jump in to defend him (deliberately casting some shade on Cleo's allies, who kind of left them out to dry). In later seasons, a red's yellow and green allies tended to spectate rather than defend their red ally, so fights didn't escalate. In Last Life, reds abandoned their previous alliances, too, which supercharged this, leading to weaker reds against stronger non-reds.
4. The boogeyman discourages players from hanging around in groups, since the more people around you, the more likely you are to be near a boogey. In theory a big group could help defend you from the boogey, but usually no one tries fight back against a boogey; running is a better strategy (especially for bystanders who aren't the target). Also, there's the risk of multiple boogey-kills if you're in a big group.

1. You can only attempt to kill if either (a) you are red, (b) someone is attempting to kill you or your ally. This can chain, so if your ally tries to kill someone and they fight back, you can support your ally.
2. TNT, enchantments, etc. are base minecraft and the map only starts with a handful of cows. A limited number of enchanting rooms/bookcases, cow farms, villager trading halls, brewing stands, and tnt farms can be built (e.g. there is a limited number of 'permits' for each, and if you don't have the permit, you can't build one. Once you start building, that permit is fulfilled, so permits aren't something that can be passed around. You don't have to build it yourself, if you want to team up with someone who is better at building these things). Maybe there are limits like how many bookshelves or villagers you can have, and how many chests a gunpowder farm can have, which increase as the series goes on. Players are allowed to log-on out of game-time to build these things, since it's kind of boring content if someone spends a good chunk in-game leveling up villagers. I can't think of other structures which would be good to include, but I bet there are some.
3. Instead of a single boogeyman, you have a boogey-team. Players explicitly join teams, although they can change teams whenever they like (I think using the new armor flairs could be a cool way of doing this visually, signaling team allegiance with different colors, the way the Dogwarts/Pizza banners did). Each session, one team is randomly selected as the boogey-team, and everyone who is on that team collectively has to kill another non-red player (not on their team). If they don't by the end of the session, a randomly selected member or two drops down to red. But if the team is more than 1/2 of the total non-red players in the game, they are automatically selected, and they instead have to kill 1 of their own non-red members (to prevent mega-blobs).
4. Not really related, but I think a series set in the caves would be a really cool visual twist. There could be a top barrier as well as a world barrier to keep everyone below ground. There would have to be a way to get wood, food, and a few other surface-only things, but with the caves and cliffs biomes, it could be really cool.
