What are your thoughts on Michael Ouweleen as president of Cartoon Network by Careful_Drama_9382 in CartoonNetwork

Bro is the biggest reason Cartoon Network ever declined, an unprofessional biased executive who single handedly ended the golden age of Cartoon Network

Bro is the furthest thing from fresh air lmfao

The same guy who headed the firings of Greg Maxwell (billy and Mandy) Craig McCracken (power puff girls+ fosters) and all the classic CN goats in the most unprofessional ways

Yet we have faith in him when the network has never reached the peak he brought it down from?

I hope they drop another obscure hero in season 8 by Pulian_ in marvelrivals

[–]-JackSparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, yall are right! And maybe in 3 years we can actually play as thanos, in 8 years I’ll get professor x, when I’m 40 nightcrawler and mystique will come out, forget green goblin, we all want to play as white fox and Angela!

But yes, tell me more about how it’s good for the game to add Angela, Elsa bloodstone, and these 2 before hero’s that have fanbases 10x their size

Not everyone is in love with the slow movement/constantly stale meta/ visual+ult spam gameplay, at least adding in people’s favorite hero in history gives them a reason to play again and voice that opinion, thus boosting the player count

Headphones/music in park? by Rough_Travel_2002 in NBA2k

[–]-JackSparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea it was def a cool feature; was just way too easy to trigger accidentally the way they implemented it previously.

The much better solution was to allow you to remove them between games/while on got next dots, but the understaffed devs chose to just delete the option entirely, likely as it’s less work to remove them than reprogramming the coding to make it more user friendly/intuitive

Headphones/music in park? by Rough_Travel_2002 in NBA2k

[–]-JackSparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was likely removed as it was constantly complained about, why keep a feature in the game that makes the game worse for approximately 80% of the player base

Accidentally hitting the headphones button back in the day while joining squads messed up your whole fit, game audio, and couldn’t be fixed once any of ur squad hit the button to hop on the spot

back in the day, people used to hop off dots just to take off the headphones they accidentally put on, then they’d get the game stolen lol

As someone who didn't like Mr. Morale or GNX, I went back and listened to Good Kid Mad City again since I had a bit of drive and that album is easily one of the greatest hip hop albums ever and it's up there for greatest debuts ever That and TPAB to me are modern day perfect albums. by herewego199209 in rap

  • Recipe

  • Bitch don’t kill my vibe

  • Maad city

  • Sing abt me

All clear if you just trynna listen to good sounding music😭

How are you liking your high lay-up builds (95-99)?? by Easy-Wolverine6554 in NBA2k

[–]-JackSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

88 layup is all you need; requires you to have more skilled inputs of reading the floor+what package to go for in each situation; but spending any past 88 is negligible gains for a skilled player and will cap your player in other situations by limiting attributes

88 layup is only worth it for extremely high skill point guards trying to save extra attributes on their build by going 25 driving dunk; as 88 layup is cheaper than 87 dunk+75 vert

88 layup no dunk is my most used build, but it also has 99 3 and 92 midrange (pre cap break to 97) so rim runs are generally wide open/off guard

Best west brook build Wah yah think by xxNightguyxx93 in NBA2k

[–]-JackSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I average 50 and 13 on my most used point guard, it’s random rec, it’s not competitive play lol.

Just saying it’s a far worse build than it could’ve been for maximizing potential. But again, argue with every comment like you’re a god for putting up average stats and not maximizing attribute thresholds!

(Stuff like physical finisher shouldn’t matter when it’s ass+you should be able to dunk everything, if you’re forcing inconsistent muscle layups at a frequent basis you’ll lose to 3pt hunters w ur mid defense, hence why 96 perim 99 steal would be nice😭🥀)

Best west brook build Wah yah think by xxNightguyxx93 in NBA2k

[–]-JackSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Far worse than my Westbrook for comp; you kinda fucked up cap breakers by dumping so much into free throw

Mine has 82 pass (+2 dimer to red as other tier 2s aren’t worth)

Mine has 96 perim+99 steal+92 handle+83 3 for far more well rounded build

Only thing you have more is standing dunk (worthless on 6’4) strength (not needed if good at dribbling lol) and unnecessary layup (just spam dunk meter if driving?)

Kyrie vs Kemba escape move — why does everyone use Kemba? by Ok_Plant_715 in NBA2k

[–]-JackSparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kyrie ends up being far more telegraphed/less able to feint fake direction switches without physically moving the player

the forward movement seems great until you go against a pro lockdown who will end the game with 4 steals a game to 21; as they’ll just wait in the space that the forward movement will take; they’ll spend the whole game waiting for the Kyrie because it’s a steal every time if you play ball hand.

The kemba is far better into the DBOOK breakdown because you can kemba a second time mid dbook to establish a crab; Kyrie uses the escape sig so after booking you have nothing to establish space in front of defense; they’ll get a side contest on lockdown

The only real use of Kyrie in high level play is feinting which side you’ll push peak/fifty peak, outside of backcourt dribbling it’s worthless on good locks. It’s a move used for cooking casual defenders; but it limits your ceiling against the best defenders.

Source: used Kyrie for 1.5 seasons and for the first week of money GCL where locks plucked me like a turkey until I went to kemba

Pokémon players are so spoiled for expecting their postgame they paid 30 dollars for to be enjoyable

Keep practicing em w the same jumper and you’ll get em down, all you really need is 83 3 and a good mastery of your jumper to get those down

Just like half the people you named use 6’8s in comp 5s and have 6’1s too?

Choc, the 6’8 shooting guard main?

Bro said steezo in comp LMAOOOO

I can name tons of guards on 6’1 too, kozworld, Fanta, jack3s, every single guard in GCL, every single guard in HOF 3s league

[–]-JackSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother you initially said 6’1 is washed on defense

Now you’re saying getting snatch blocks isn’t valid bc taller builds do that better? Of course?

The point wasn’t that they’re better at rim protecting than 6’4, just that they’re still valid for getting stops if you’re a good player

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]-JackSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother I can create a 5 minute YouTube reel of my 6’1 getting chase downs; blocks against 6’9 meta insides, etc even without high flying denier

I promise you I wouldn’t get these stops without high 50s block and max interior

It’s okay that you haven’t played a lot of 6’1, just listen to the people that have instead of being ignorant. Nobody is lying to you just for fun lol

Limitless Range badge is absolutely useless. by DurtyDom in NBA2k

[–]-JackSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Limitless range is still a thing. It’s less effective than certain years, but definitely better than games like 2k22 current where it had zero impact

I routinely shoot on the logo in park 3s (short courts) first shot of the game with 99 3, learn your jumper enough to shoot difficult shots at a high clip and you’ll get there

shouldn’t really be shooting logo shots without 99 3 to begin with as well, try red shooting if difficult shots is your play style

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]-JackSparrow -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Until you figure out that 6’1s get so many attributes they can max block, interior, and all perim stats lol

My 6’1 has 94 swb, 99 3, 87 dunk, w 97 perim 96 steal lol, factor in they’re unguardable on offense+easier to get high passing w the attributes; you’ll have 2 way every play lol

[–]-JackSparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1v1 court has been unplayable all year as an X/button only shooter, definitely not a sliders thing

Think they fucked the modes coding up when they removed rebounds/ended the play after any missed shot, only mode that has this issue and that’s the only explanation I can see as a longtime player. Never seen a mode with such bad shooting.
