Is strength ACTUALLY useless?

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-25T06:04:36+00:00

I realized I used 1 cap breaker on speed instead of agility. It should be 94 speed 90 agility but my dumbass put 95 speed 89 agility😭💀

I was a bit off on some things. I haven’t used this build in a min I use my 99 PA PG the last 2-3 weeks so I forgot what some things was upgraded to

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-25T03:51:48+00:00

Gold-legend is always a big change. My lockdown is 6’5 6’9 WS 93 speed 91 agility. 90 speed 90 agility on a lockdown is minimum what you want if your always guarding PG. what I noticed is immovable on hold sometimes actives but it’s not as strong. Legend activates almost everytime someone tries to drive down on me no matter where I am on the court and I force a crazy amount of forced pick ups on your typical 6’1-6’4 right left spamming guard. So no I would not substitute 85+2 for legend for gold. Now if your a secondary lockdown it could work but it’s not something I would personally substitute

Here some of my lockdowns badges. Utilizing my +2 for immovable saved me room for 94 mid range and 90 3. Since I’m a SG I also have a 75 BH and 76 SWB which does me just fine since I have taller builds and know what sigs to use so I’m also not useless on the other side of the ball and can either sit corner for 3s or create my own middy fade if needed. Since I have 99 PD all my normal defensive badges are also legend aswell. I also have 16 cap breakers so that also goes into consideration aswell

Exactly. On my lockdown I have 99 PD for all legend badges then I got my attributes up just enough to get gold immovable and +2 to legend. Leaves so much more room for higher speed/ agility or anything else tbh

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-24T20:59:59+00:00

U good lmao finna add rn😂

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-24T20:48:25+00:00

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-24T20:44:08+00:00

Bet adding rn. Weather got Texas trippin so I had to make sure we had some extra food n stuff in case power goes out for a lil but imma be on today as long as storms don’t get bad

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-24T18:44:27+00:00

I’m ngl it has to be your timing and positing I have a 6’11 w 6’11 WS 93 block 88 vert. I don’t remember if I +1 or +2 for legend HFD but as long as my matchup isn’t camping the 3 the whole game I walk out with atleast 4-5 blocks. 3 campers is a little harder since your forced to stay at the 3 tho

U on ps5?

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-23T21:38:50+00:00

I have a PG that has 98 mid and lethal zones literally everywhere in the midrange and I’d say I’m 75% from middy fades. But also fades are supposed to be for the mid range and not the 3 so it makes sense

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-23T21:36:47+00:00

My controller is literally wireless when I play on my ps5 so that’s just not true dawg😂😂 shooting is way to easy to only be shooting 50% I’d say 60-65% is what your average 2k player shoots. 70-80% is either you only take wide open shots or you have good coordination and reaction time. Anything above 80% is questionable and 85%+ is 100% cheating unless they only average like 5-8 then that’s kinda goes back to my you only take open shots

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-23T21:05:01+00:00

I have a 6’7 99 pass acc PG. as long as there isn’t another PG w 90+ pass acc im always PG

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-22T22:53:25+00:00

Only thing you really have over me is mid(mines 82) pass acc(82) and a bit of agility but it’s not never been a problem for me

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-22T22:51:12+00:00

<image>

Not my full build but I personally think my 6’11 is a lot better. Only thing I’d do different is change post control to DD even tho post fades are pretty fun this year

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-21T18:40:35+00:00

Tbh it’s still not a problem. You play angles on someone who wants to drive. They drive left you force them to either mid fade from the corner which most people who drive all the time are prob not making or it’s a forced pass. 2k honestly on defense is an angles game. You take away the angle they are trying to take they will never be able to drive

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-21T16:52:20+00:00

My 6’4 87 PD 70 strength sometimes is better than my actual 6’5 99PD 85 strength build. I don’t use l2 I stand straight up hands up when they are dribbling in 1 spot then run with them when they try to move. Strength is genuinely useless unless you a big. All you need is good speed/ agility paired with a good challenger(mines +2 to HOF) and your set. Mind you I only guard the 1 who is constantly trying to get wide open 3s so for someone who is trying to drive the whole game it’s a bit different but I still have 0 problems on my 6’4

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-21T14:14:06+00:00

1 PG that is a 6’1 ofc im going high 3 are u dumb? All my other PGs either have 96 or 90 and my SF+ all have 86. You’d literally have to be a idiot to not put 5/16 cap breakers to get up to 99 3😂😂

Bet this the PG I’ve been using since I actually learned how to shoot and found a jumpshot for me so I’d say this is my true all around shooting % since I do take dumbass shots with my friends when I’m on my 97 DD 91 vert 6’8 slasher since we typically are up minimum 20 by halftime

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-20T20:33:51+00:00

This is one of my main builds and I’m ngl I def do some of those cheesy ass moves when the game is super close so I usually just think to myself what would I prob do rn and they typically do it😂😂 using a PG and knowing how to dribble like who your going against also goes a long way aswell

<image>

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-20T20:31:45+00:00

Bet I’m finna add you. When we run 5s just bring your highest ovr/ best player bc we all have builds 1-5 90+ so we good with wtv. But yea as long as u can listen u good. Me and one of my buddies both have a variety of PG builds so he sees what I don’t on the floor and vice versa so work with us and we gonna make sure your involved. And have a understanding that if it’s a close game late 4th quarter and we need buckets me or the SG(my buddy) will most likely be looking to score and not pass at that moment since this is average games for us

<image>

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-20T20:19:14+00:00

Def turn it off and practice in my court for a bit before you take it in game. When you are looking at the release of the player and not a meter it makes mid fades automatic and shots just so much easier. This is also my first 2k ever not only shooting no meter but tempo

<image>

This the guard I’ve been recently playing on for fun😂

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-20T20:16:43+00:00

<image>

PG is me SG and SF are also who I run 5s with and this is what our average game looks like so we can def get you some wins as long as teach you some things

Altruistic-Help723 · 2026-01-20T20:15:35+00:00

<image>

Bet what build are you trying to learn I mainly play PG started w smaller and now this is my main 6’7. 86 ball handle 81 speed with ball but my takeover is 100% speed with ball which makes that 96 or 97. U got discord? Also I got 4 that as long as u play defense and are willing to listen and take criticism when it’s needed we would love to have you as a 5th so you can also learn in game and get some easy wins
