Not ages i have around 10k points in 1 5 quarter min game.

You just go to freethrow line do double crossover and shoot if it says heavy contested you good if you have contested shot in 90 and difficult shots hof you can green it.

The practice work for mid-range deadeye is one of the easiest to work through....

While you don't get any points on the badge for taking lightly contested shots(only heavily and smothered) it gives you a bigger margin for error on lightly contested shots when shooting midrange shots. Gold basically eliminates a moderate chunk of late closeouts from affecting your shots. HOF basically lets you take any midrange as an OK shot(unless in crowd).

Yes, if you shoot immediatly after the stepback its always a light contest. You have to pretty much stand directly in front of your defender...

Does anyone realize that when you do a Mid Range Deadeye drill that you dont get 1200 points? I only get 960. I mean it says 1200 but the math shows 960.

It grinds to catch and shoot as well. If your build doesn't have the Catch and Shoot badge the points go nowhere. If you get your defender to come to you on your shots(heavily contested) the ratio of points going toward mid range deadeye gets bigger.

ive noticed those with this badge on gold take the worst contested shots in pro am.

Just got this badge to HOF playing to half time, taking jumpers from the free throw line and doing 4 drills between games. I'm still trying to see if it's worth it. In park in leaning towards No, but in Pro Am in noticing shots that were 'heavily contested' are now light.

It does seem to be weaker than it was in 17 however. In 17 with my creator if I was able to create space and rise for the shot clean it was a very good shot for me. Not seeing that thus far.
