Domination Mode

[Gucci Fruit]

Re: Domination Mode

Finished the game and saw like 3 error messages ejecting me from the myteam screen. Finally got through and recieved the myteam packs and earned mt points though. Hopefully they have finally solved the problem with packs and mt points not being rewarded.

your lucky man. I dont even want to play because im just wasting contracts and gaining no reward from it

Re: Domination Mode

It has. I played about 7 games yesterday (4 domination, 3 challenges) all were counted and I was rewarded properly

Re: Domination Mode

Finished Domination today, the only teams I had to play more than once were the Wizards (Got em the first time but the servers didnt give me the packs) and the Bulls which I had to play three times because they kept shutting me down in the first. Aside from that it was easy for the most part. Generally averaged 820-900 pts per game. Most I got was around 940.

Noteable reward pulls were

- KD ( East allstars pack)
- LBJ (MyTeam allstars pack)
- CP3 (West allstars pack)
- PG24 (Pacers pack)
- Blake Griffin (Clippers pack)
- Al Jefferson (Hornets pack0
- Fear the Beard (Rockets pack)
- Goran Dragic (Suns pack)
- Nate Archibald (99 Stars reward) - Pretty Much Cp3 without a 3pt shot and 91 Overall

Overall I got lucky towards the end in the last 3 pulls but I'll take it.

Re: Domination Mode

I am liking this mode.

I have DeMarcus Cousins, Serge Ibaka, Rookie KD, Shannon Brown, and Trey Burke now.

I am playing 6 Minute Quarters so I have full highlights as well.

You have to execute pretty everytime down the floor. Main goal being a Layup + assist which gives u 2 + 4 + 2 ( layup, assist, shot made )

Also try to feed the post, make a quick move and try and get the assist, shot made, and post move combo which is 2+4+5. This is the hardest of them all because post moves take too long to do resulting in a lost assist most of the time. But getting a post move score is 7 Points which is the equivalent of making a 3 off an assist.

The way I ran my offense was pushing the ball and trying to get a quick layup, if that failed I swung it around to get a drive, or a 3 point shot. Triangle scheme when it came to swinging and driving on one side of the court. If I couldnt get anything going I would drop it into the post and try and score there or draw the foul. Mostly shot around 60-75% from the field, 40-60% from 3, and 70-100% from the line, which results in alot of extra points.

As for defense, I ran a 2-3, and double teamed and pressured the AI into passing, trapping and forcing some turnovers at half court. If you can, squeeze the extra pass in to get the steal + fast break + layup.dunk + shot made + assist all in one go, but if you cant just take it all without the assist.

If I couldnt force a turnover, id double team for the AI to pass the ball and then sag off the person with the ball untill the computer shot the ball. They miss jumps 50% of the time.

The thing i noticed was the AI runs most of the shotclock out which results in less time for me to turn around and score so I tried to get the to shoot asap. If you let them drive and do the close shot pull up, they tend to make it most of the time, and they also ran the shot clock almost fully, so you might aswell settle for them to just take a jumper and make it 50% of the time but not use up as much time. And if the ball ends up in the paint, go for the block, or foul them. Missed freethrows = free rebounds aslong as its on the 2nd attempt.

The thing that works well vs many teams is having a mismatch at the PF spot, I had Melo abusing most 4's and had Valenciunas manning down the C spot. Worked well except against the clippers where Griffin just sort of kept him locked up.

Thanks a lot man for some solid advice. i do follow some of those such as ft% n stuff and playing run n gun. But the post thing i just noticed recently. Also, appreciate sharing the schemes and letting the AI shoot...that makes a lot of sense with the way they use the shot clock. Hope i can beat it soon enough.

Re: Domination Mode

I really like that you don't need to use all bronze this year.

That's the part I don't like... Having to use all Bronze made it more strategic.

True but now you can practice using your best team in domination mode and earn points for it. Last year the only time you would ever use your best team is in actual RTP games, which didn't make sense if you want to practice and experiment with your team.

Exactly..i like the format this yr. not vague like last yr where everyone had to make up their own definition of "domination" to be able to get those points. At least this year its well broken down as to how many points u can get per rebound, steal, assist etc.
