Rebound Chaser on HoF.

Intimidator and Rim Protector should be at least Gold imo. I also really like Pogo Stick because it allows me to be more reckless chasing blocks and recovering.

Boxout and Brickwall at Silver at least. Worm is actually pretty good if you want to pursue offensive rebounds or if you’re dealing with a paint camper in your own end.

For a big, I still think Interceptor and Pickpocket on bronze is a benefit. I also like to have at least one Chasedown upgrade.

Did you bother with clamps at all?

I didn’t but I might re-assign a point to it eventually. I’m a small Center so I end up at PF a decent amount and when I get matched up against more mobile SF, it’s hard to stay in front of them on the perimeter. But most games I don’t think I need it since a lot of bigs won’t even leave the paint to screen let alone drive.

I guess I'll ask it like this

If yall are wings or guards....what kind of big man would YOU prefer to run with?

I'm totally fine being a role player especially cause it's my build to play with randoms if my pals aren't around, but I keep bouncing around, undecided.

I really could just go for the pure defensive C type, max weight and height, just get easy Barbara Walters and call it a day........but that is kind of boring to me to make a build everyone else does.

It just kind of sucks that if you want more than one badge on an archetype that's secondary, that you gotta spend a **** ton of points in stuff you won't care about, just to get badge count up




Also this is for my guard: pro touch or consistent finisher? I guess I'm not the most gifted at getting greens on these but I wasn't sure which would help me out more. I get 15 badges for finishing, 9 will be taken by contact finisher, acrobat, and fancy footwork. I figured the other 6 can go to some combo of slithery/pro/consistent

Consistent is one of the best finishing IMO

IMO spacing for PF/C is great to have as a ballhandler, doesn't have to be for 3 either the ability to hit a Mid-Range makes attacking the hoop easier or busting zones. Consistent Finisher is really good since you might try and trigger a dunk and get a layup instead. Or like me play on USA servers from Australia.😁

Half sharpshooter half defender is definitely the best big man pie chart in the game.

Having an open paint where any of your teammates can drive in or cut through without the other team's center helping off your team's big man makes offense so easy that you should be able to score 90 to 100 points a game against bad teams and 70 to 80 points a game against good teams.

I hate how necessary quick draw is to do post moves and take jump shots at a decent speed on a 6'10" or taller player. You pretty much have to go up to gold at minimum, and then go all the way up to hall of fame if you plan on taking more than 4 or 5 shots a game for your team.

Having all those hall of fame shooting badges also lets you not worry about your three point rating getting dropped by height + wingspan and just let the power of the purple badges make your shots go in.

solo playing with randoms you probably want an interior force who can do it all except shoot deep 2 and 3s.

squad up depends on who you run with.
