Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?

Anybody making a post / defense build ? I think this is one of those old school big types.

now that u speak about it im still undecided, i feel post/defense could be a sleeper build too.

I'm still undecided between shot creator/playmaker and shot creator/slasher.

This wil be a SF.

Seems like 1st option only has better ball handling and passing while slasher is better athlete and better finisher while having almost the same mid/3pt shot.

I went with shot creator/slasher. Especially at the 3.

Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?

I played the prelude so many times now and personally my favorite build has been shot creator/slasher...

I'm making a small forward and I already decided on 6'10 because I like being able to play 3 or 4 and if need be the big in park.

I had a good time with the lowest weight..but I bumped it up to 250 and tried again and I feel unstoppable. My guy just bullies into the paint like LeBron.

I feel like speed really might not be everything this time around and actually knowing where to be and how to score with your build will actually benefit you.

All I was doing was getting to the free throw line with my strength and hitting fades and floaters I love it. Dunked on a couple dudes too.

Which do you guys think would be better? Looking to make a hybrid PF/C. Last year I was a Glass Cleaning Center, this year our SG is moving back to C and I'm moving up to PF, but want to be able to move down when he doesn't play.

I'm looking at 6'11 Driving & Finishing/3 Point Center, 7'1 Post/Defense, or 7'1 3/Post. I played with each on the Prelude and it was easy to score on the CPU from the post, I suspect that won't be the case in ProAm, and if a 70 something attribute for 3s results in like 30% or less shooter (which is realistic but who wants realism when you want to win games?) from downtown is that going to be worth losing speed and athleticism? A lot to think about this year.

So, with that chart that shows who gets 86 and 90 ball control.. Do we know if that is for the default caps at 85 overall, or if we have to uncap to the white bars to get that much? Kind of a big deal if I can't get 86 ball control without getting to the ~90 ovr first..

Still not sure.. My best qualities last year were pushing the offense and punishing bad defense, and with the offense nerfs to playmaker types, it makes me not want to be a playmaker unless it's as a secondary.. Shot Creator/Playmaker with 90 ball control, or Shot Creator/Slasher with 86 ball control and contact dunks both seem attractive for my play style, but only if you get that 86 ball control with the first set of upgrades

Are you interested in a slasher / Playmaker ? I know it gives up some shooting .

Re: Dual Archetypes Confirmed... Thoughts? Combinations?

is there no way to see the badges that your build will get besides the 5 it previews ? I seen a chart around too but it only shows your main 5 also.

it's like 2k makes this build making process so difficult or you put so much thought into it so you mess up and give them some more money on VC lol.

I used KD jumper for the lowest weight..hit a couple open ones..

The 250 lb one I just played as I was using John Walls shot and hit a few in just the first game. Not even moving shots either, just straight catch and shoots.

I'm going with a 6'4 Shot creator slasher. Looks deadly
