The Jibbo Open IV


April 19th-May 15th


The Jibbo Open is a BRUTAL and UNFORGIVING Backyard Baseball event where competitors participate in INTENSE Backyard Baseball CHALLENGES.

Extra Hard Mod : Listen, punk, you think you have what it takes to win at this kids game? Think again. This year we are throwing a new game mode called "Extra Hard" at you. This mod developed by Vissery is gonna KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF! If you choose "Hard" difficulty in any parts of the game the AI gets tougher, meaner and more brutal than you have ever seen with your puny eyeballs.

Challenge 1 The first challenge for this Jibbo Open is winning a pickup game with the best run differential. Once you've installed the mod you'll just need to start a pickup game with the difficulty set to hard. Pick whoever you want, you'll definitely need to stack your team for this matchup. All cheese and all powerups are allowed.

Challenge 2 Be the first person to play an entire season and win the championship in EXTRA HARD, You'll be required to record the whole thing start to finish (NO RESTARTS). First person to do so will win the grand prize. Good luck
