They probably signed a contact of some sort to make 2k money. Their tests aren’t as in depth anymore. More like half done. So in order to keep people playing they will add the better tests towards the end of the year. Just like 2k adding the best animations towards the end of the year.

@officialnoquestion Mike never called my channel that. Maybe you're talking about other channels. This is my only channel and I'm not part of any other.

I definitely agree with this test based on my experience. I don’t agree with everything but do appreciate you and your work. It’s like you set a barometer to go by. I have used 90 perimeter with silver and I have 93 n 94 with gold and they are really close. Both provide good results so if I’m making a build and I’m debating on what to take away I always say I can settle for at minimum silver fast feet and silver clamps to get the job done

Strength plays huge part too, I have a 6'6 pg with 84 strength and the cut offs are relatively consistent even though I haven't raised my per d yet, it's still at 25. I'd say silver clamps is perfect if you add strength

hes done proved that

Clamps isnt really hitting unless you got immovable enforcer super high

I’ve been giving people w 95 ballhandle trouble w gold clamps and HOF immovable

Silver the sweet spot, gold is great, HOF people save your points. FYI just make sure you strength is decent.

been trying to reach you. have ways of making your tests quicker. whats a good way to contact?

I give credit when do but I really do think you should do a video with 70 and up perimeter as well just to get a overall perspective 💯

How about defense assistance strength does that help with bumps?

Great test. Thank you.

So either go for HOF or Silver.

So i just mDe a build with 75 per def and 91 steal.. if i raise the strength to 71 or higher will it.balance out? In terms of gettn bumps?

Can you test the each takeovers or each perks in 2k24?

When the game first came out I only had silver and could clamp up great

Can you do a bump steals test? Mainly to find out how to get them. I constantly cut off the bh only to get no reward.

Ай бұрын

Stop guarding the player it's self, make a perimeter, and learn spots on the court where the person can score based on what moves they're doing. For example, if they spam J.murray behind the back and LeBron step back, don't hold r2 and l2 hold l2 and tap the left stick in the whichever direction to cut them off. Also, learn angles and ur hitbox. Don't always try to make ur player parallel with ur opponents. Sometimes, u have to establish a top foot, but this comes from experience.

Glove next pelase 🙏

Fast feet is also important though. It’s more than just clamps, it’s immovable, clamps, fast feet, challenger, pick dodger all working together in various situations that make defense better

it's to show you basically which ones animations pop up when and how without the addition of perimeter defense animations. HoF is the best, obviously get that one if you can afford to, but silver is the absolute sweet spot. bronze is good to have if that's all you can afford, but Gold for the benefits it gives, gives you the lowest jump from the prior tier. silver isn't as expensive as the rest, it gives a huge boost over bronze + you can add stats anywhere else.
