Slow Build
Slow Build is a Player and Item Modification, first seen after the Season β18 Elections.
Effects
Every time a player with Slow Build steps up to bat (excluding their first plate appearance for a game), their hitting stats are improved by 1%. These stat gains are reset at game's end.
Slow Build has no effect on pitchers.
History
During the Season β18 Elections, the Canada Moist Talkers gained Slow Build through the Blessing of the same name, giving every player on their lineup at the time the modification.
The following players received Slow Build in the Season 18 Elections:
- Randy Dennis
- Commissioner Vapor
- Eugenia Garbage
- Beans McBlase
- Jesús Koch
- Ziwa Mueller
- Cedric Spliff

Slow Build appeared again in the Season β20 elections under the Slow Clap Blessing, which granted a random player on the winning team Slow Build as a Permanent Modification. This was won by the Hawai'i Fridays, and granted to Don Mitchell.
