Lol until you get two screens and the defensive player can't cheat low or high at all.

there should be a website about those archetypes

we need to know what we will build before we get the game

attributes, what badges we can get etc.

If the caps are pretty decent, I'll probably go with:

Jordan-esque - Two-Way Shot Creator SG
Playmaking Shot Creator SG (For the better ballhandling and speed with ball)
Pippen-esque - Playmaking Lockdown Defender SF

So It'll find a median between the numbers. Otherwise we're looking at some super broken possibilities. I feel like that's the point of "Pure". Pure is just the straight up archetype, half and half has to be a balance of the 2, otherwise there's a ton of archetypes that will be useless and a few that there will be no point in not using.

I think it going to be different caps for player builds rather than averages.

example:
pure sharpshooter
3pt: 94 max
speed: 78 max

sharpshooter/playmaker
3pt: 88 max
speed:82 max

...That's basically what I said. Playmaker 3 is currently like, 84ish, right? Median between that and 96 is 88-89.

It makes sense this way too.

Just heard from Kuda's stream that you have to be a pure archetype to get HOF badges.

Probably gonna rock out with shot creator/playmaker to make my Iverson-like pg/sg. Can live without HoF badges if thats the case gold will be good enough for me. Just hope to god its not another year of 3 point shooters dominating again. Cant take another year of that trash >.>

I guess you didn't hear but the effectiveness of screens has been massively toned down. From what I heard, there won't be anymore people spamming behind screens and cheesing them anymore
