Last Updated Season 1, Day 78

Amplifications

Amplification are chosen by majority votes for each team. Each team will receive 1 amplification.

Your Team's Lineup will receive a Small Batting Boost.

Your Team's Rotation will receive a Small Pitching Boost.

Your Team's Lineup will receive a Large Baserunning Boost.

Your Team's Lineup will receive a Large Defense Boost.

All the Amplifications will boost team-wide stats in one area. It is unknown what the difference between "Small" and "Large" is.

Based on API based FK and analysis of Gamma 1, I expect the boosts to be one of the following:

~3% boost to all Batting Attributes
~4% boost to all Pitching Attributes
~5% boost to all Baserunning Attributes
~5% boost to all Defense Attributes

Note that the actual increase will be random for each player, the above is the average increase.

Distortions

Distortions are selected by raffle across all teams. Each distortion will be awarded to one random team, where teams with more votes are more likely to be selected. Teams may only receive at most 1 distortion.

Fire Blood

Give a random Player in your Team's Rotation Fire Blood.

Fire Blood grants the "Fiery" Modification which has the description "This Player has a chance of throwing Double Strikes."

Electric Blood

Give a random Player in your Team's Rotation Electric Blood.

Electric Blood grants the "Electric" Modification which has the description "When this Player is Pitching, they'll have a chance of zapping away Balls."

Strike Blood

Give a random Player in your Team's Lineup Strike Blood.

Strike is one of the 2 new bloods, so the effect is unknown.

Ball Blood

Give a random Player in your Team's Lineup Ball Blood.

Ball is one of the 2 new bloods, so the effect is unknown.

Arm Cannon

Cold Call

Call the Alternate for the 2 Worst Pitchers in your Team's Rotation.

An Alternate is a reroll of the player's stats. It is unknown if it will maintain combined star total similarly to later Expansion Era Alternates, but it did not result in lower rolls in Gamma 1. This should also reroll players if they are still the worst player after their first reroll. See below for the list of players this would reroll. For reference, the statistical average reroll would have ~1.5 pitching stars (or ~0.3 Pitching Rating).

Long Distance Call

For reference, the statistical average reroll would have ~2 batting stars (or ~0.4 Batting Rating).
