@lakerfan no shooting is okay for lock build? Because I can’t even hit my three point shot even with 90+% Should I just create with no shooting badge bro?
@@mnlgabbymnlgabby8366 depends what your role is. If you’re not a center your build should definitely have at least 70+ 3 ball. Higher if your struggle to shoot.
Not sure if anyone in comments mentioned this, but one thing I noticed that might change how you recommend certain badges based on what tier they're in: Doesn't that change depending on position? Or size? For example, when you're talking about rebounding you have Boxout Beast in Tier 1. For my build that badge is in tier 2 (swap boxout for challenger, post lock for interceptor). I noticed the height in the rebounding section of the vid is 6'9", and my build is 6'11". Just something to mention maybe, because that does kind of change the calculus when deciding on how many attributes/badge cap. Anyways, thanks for the work on the vid.
@@JocaloPR the 99 post control i think he was talking about, only usefull if you have a full squad that know how to space the floor and let you work inside
The Bully badge has been great for me due to how expensive builds are this year so most people dropping all their VC on 3pt shooting so they have no defense. The amount of people I see with a 90+ 3pt and the rest of their attributes are barren is wild
Pluck steals are super corny this year. I have no problem of locks getting a steal on a well time pinch or crash. But if a dribbler warps into a defender to get plucked then its too op. Steals themselves arent the problem, its the canned animation that are tied to glove I personally cant stand
If you want to have a 92 three ball at SF-6’10 you need to go minimum wingspan. Do you think the rating is worth it to justify the trex arms ? Mostly play rec nowadays with buddies pretty causal !
In the park i understand but its pointless because you still need to invest in playmaking if you got 16 badges because of the finishing investmemt you dont have enough badge points to get all the good badges. Dimer, floor general
One thing I was intrigued by with post control is the fact that you can unlock quick first step with it, on top of the fact it helps with low budget finishing badges..... Other than that it's probably a pointless stat and not worth it. I didn't notice a huge difference with HOF quick first step on my 6'9 during the test.
it's made for centers who don't get the most points for dribbling. I think it works well for them, but it's a HUGE investment this year compared to last year.
@@olafharoldsonnii4713 yes but if you're a slow center you won't see too much of an acceleration with quick first step from what I noticed. Might as well be 6'9 and get 85 ball handling for gold in that case.
I heard you say multiple times in videos that no one is doin post moves. That must be a park thing cuz I see just about every center in rec doin post moves
I dont think needle threader activates the stuns on passes. It may increase the frequency but I get loads of stuns when I pass the ball and I’ve never run needle threader!
Having 94 post control unlocks Gold QFS in playmaking badges and I put my speed with ball to 65 for the Joel Embid dribbling style. What do you like better Joel Embid or Pro dribbling style?
If your’re just tossing on driving dunk: 55 is a good spot if your not wanted to overcommit to it or have it be completely useless is some sense. 55 gets you klay Thompson dunks, which are quick and straight to the bucket, no back scratchers or anything. I still believe it you got a lane to the hoop and got slithery on you can dunk relatively consistently
@@camnoble1 say you make a 6’9 build, slithery and limitless are cheap so you already have sliterhy and can toss on bronze limitless and its noticeably faster if you only gonna be viable at finishing, it’s definitely not crazy but its efficient and cheap
When making my popper build I accidentally put offensive rebounding to 99 instead of defensive and i already invested so much vc, is it a liability or am i still fine (i have a 99 o board and a 84 d board)
Not going 2 to lie ...I was waiting on this vid...been labbing myself between my 2 builds and a couple of the homes builds....definitely feel like for a 6'9 and below speed and vertical along with high interior and block would help tremendously with chase downs...offensive players driving 2 the rim is op right now...
laker do you think that tall guards (6'5-6'9) need int d or block and also strenght, because i have to lower some stats (like 73 lay instead of 80) to have a 70 block (bronze anchor) and 74 strengh (bronze bully) for my 6'8 pg. What do you think?
I have a 6’10 point forward with hof quick first step to be real it’s not that fast better off with probably gold but on a 6’9 it’s probably good have to sacrifice defense tho
When you turn 99 does it allow you to get badges you couldn't get before ,for example if im at 91 strength and i get to 99 and my strength goes up to 95 can i now use Hall of fame Bully?
You ever thought about using face cam? Your content been S tier for a while now you deserve more subs. Face cam seems to help with algorithm but those who know you watching regardless 💯
Lamelo ball pass pakage by far the best one if you are a kickout guard. It has 2 very slow and dumb Animations but when you can avoid them its by far the best pakage in my opinoion
Dope video, last time you did one of these it was insanely helpful and I used it throughout the rest of the 2K cycle. I think you'll definitely have to revisit and do a 2.0 version once the meta settles and peoples badge preferences alter though. Side note, I'd add an extra threshold worthy of hitting for undersized bigs = 85 close shot. That gold Fast Twitch + Masher goes hard af.

What's best value for height weight and wingspan? I'm new and want to play park but can't shoot with the horrible delay in the game so I'm thinking a slasher

“If you have 91 3pt and didn’t care for limitless I don’t know what kind of play style you are because that’s weird” 😂 that’s me. I got a 6’8 PG with 91 3pt 87 post control and 89 ball handle. I wasn’t concerned with limitless range just wanted to be able to take whatever the defense gives me.
The point of that comment is if you want to just take open 3s at the line then 91 is overboard just go with 86 and spend elsewhere. You can still shoot deep but that gold limitless is only gonna cost 1 badge point and you can feel more comfortable spotting up or pulling up a few feet off the line
LF, what doesn’t make sense about speed and SWB, is for example: if I have a 75 max speed and that’s for like fast breaks, how can my SWB be 90 if I can only run down court at a 75?

At 92 you get all the contact dunks, Having an 82 vertical is also key. 93 is overkill.
Is 97 stamina basically the same as 99? I can get jordan dunk package if I go 97 instead of 99.
Do you think there is a noticeable difference between 80 and 85 vert for chasedowns?
honestly you would only really see a difference jumping straight up and your dunking would get slightly better

Pluck steals are super corny this year. I have no problem of locks getting a steal on a well time pinch or crash. But if a dribbler warps into a defender to get plucked then its too op. Steals themselves arent the problem, its the canned animation that are tied to glove I personally cant stand
Big facts
Yeah and it sucks because Locks should be able to steal the ball but if 2k trys to fix it they’ll over-nerf it and steals will suck again.
If you want to have a 92 three ball at SF-6’10 you need to go minimum wingspan. Do you think the rating is worth it to justify the trex arms ? Mostly play rec nowadays with buddies pretty causal !
