PRO-TIP FOR MONTH 1 OF 2K: JUST MAKE A POPPER OR LOCK (Unless you run point then make a decently sized guard that can ball handle and run an offense) UNTIL YOU LEARN THE BUILDER AND HOW THE GAME PLAYS
This BS. Why do they always do this with Driving dunk? Why do you not have to have a 99 ball handle for the best dribble sigs or a 99 3/middy for the best jump shots? Every year the contact dunk requirements are higher than the dribble sig requirements and everybody wants to dribble. I rarely come across pure slashers and I’m a pure slasher. Slashers always get punished, but 3 points is worth more than 2, and I don’t understand.
Contact dunks are broken if u can really play and use the meter Last yr pro 6’6 build was all 90+ driving 92 3 ball 92 ball handle 45 block to guard back doors ur good by the end of 2k25 ppl will figure out the broken stuff
It may be unfair for you but if you’re really good with the meter and know how to trigger contacts it can ruin the balance. I know my 96 dunk high flyer was unstoppable on 24, I could shoot lights out and it forced dudes to play up on me and as soon as I had them on my hip it was nasty contacts 10 times out of 10
@@KingInTraining that’s not the point. I’m talking about the animation gate. Elite contacts are just animations. The animations shouldn’t be so costly.
This is my first ever 2k and I made my 7’3 big man with 89 standing dunk and 67 vertical. Should I make a new build? I feel horrible now and i already got him to a 99
Yeah I’m staying 87-88 driving dunk depending on the animations you save so much going from 93-87 not worth it plus the badge lifters you can get gold poster
@@LWXGamingwhich is sad tbh..2k should be more forgiving and allow us to change certain attributes after creating and spending money on builds since they like to patch and change stuff
I'm not sure if this was confirmed but when it comes to the cap breakers how you said its 15 for the year. Like lets say you used 6 cap breakers on a guard build but then later on you made a Center build. Can you use those 6 cap breakers you unlocked on the new build you made or are you cooked and only have 9 left to use for him?
Hope u didn’t tell them not to put strength on the builds lol like most influencers do smh. Don’t wanna hear ppl complaining about 2k being trash when your player has no damn strength whatsoever 😅
This is a great video for people who don’t spend a ton of time in the builder! Especially the tethered attributes. I was shocked when some of my squad didn’t know about it and they play as much as me
If you go min vert, stop crying about not dunking over people... if you're making a slasher build, go high vert. High vert also helps rebounds and chase downs.
About the build we all know how the game gonna be with steals like last 4 years the first 3 to 2 months made a lot of guards quit because they can dribble at all without losing the ball and then nerf it and make the guards better and at the end of the game they tune it to be the same and it’s only gonna depend on your skill
I hate that there is still no info about dunk+vert for alley oops. If the contact dunks are like last 2k its more important to get all the Attribute you need for the alleys
i have a question about takeover… so it says like the boost on one i seen is +7 driving dunk…. but if i have a 99 driving dunk … does it even do anything to my driving dunk since its maxed out already ?? wouldn’t that make the takeover pointless ?
Seems dumb to me. To have no ability besides dunking and screening when ball handle and speed with ball are so cheap. Why put the driving dunk and standing dunk, and all the same ratings, just to get like 1 level higher of paint patroller at the expense of being able to create. But if it’s truly what you’re looking for, that’s probably your example, is taking it off and getting another interior D badge level
