What is League Mode?
The Most Recommended Content for Collecting Training Materials
Number of Balls Required | 5 per match |
---|---|
Estimated Match Time | Quick Play: Approx. 30 seconds Highlight: Approx. 2 minutes Full Play: Approx. 10 minutes |
League Mode is content where you progress through matches aiming to win the World Series, and it's the most crucial element for collecting materials needed for player training. The amount of rewards varies depending on wins/losses and match content, and you can earn more luxurious rewards by challenging higher leagues.
Use Surplus Balls in League Mode
Since the number of balls required to play various content is limited, it's recommended to prioritize League Mode, which is efficient for material collection. After clearing daily missions and farming events, basically use any surplus balls in League Mode.
Choose from 3 Types of Match Controls
You can choose to progress in League Mode via Quick Play (automatic), Highlight (manual), or Full Play (manual). If you proceed with Quick Play, you will need Balls and Quick Play Tickets.
Earn Up to 5 Reward Boxes Per Match

In League Mode, you can earn up to 5 reward boxes per match. The amount of rewards varies depending on the match content, so you can get more rewards in leagues where you can win by a large margin.
Also Receivable with Quick Play
Even if you complete League Mode using Quick Play, you can still receive reward boxes. In this case as well, you can get up to 5 reward boxes, so use Quick Play actively.
Recommended Leagues for Farming
