what layup package? And does vertical matter? you know to activate certain animations, like Kyrie layup animations. in 2k23 i had Kyrie layup package but it never activated his animations

[@Tcat_333]

Vertical doesn’t matter and Kobe for now

does close shot attribute matter for layups? I have 80 driving layup, 60 close shot and using jimmy's package. @@Tcat_333

Keep it up Cat! Most unique (and impressive) playstyle in the community.

[@abstract5980]

Had to come back to say this my g. I made a 6’6 Jamal Crawford build with 99 OC. And let me just say man. These layups are crazy especially with gold physical handles and speed booster. I wanna see this build in your hands man. You’d go crazy

[@abstract5980]

Also try doing a hop step into a scoop. You can trigger both badges at the same time.

[@Jayden20933]

Great information!!

The floater has been so useful for me. Trae young you can trigger from outside free throw. Better than middy magician pull ups

First time i see you bro!!! So deep in 2k content (i see you last vid with 99 consistency) your channel is underrated!!! definitely a suscribe and blue thumb!!! Gg bro, nice work, keep us updated in 2k secrets 👍

[@TaqSoto]

Thanks for the info! I've been really struggling to make layups. So I decided to force myself to learn by making a layup only build with no dunk lol. The meter has been throwing me off due to the green window changing mid animation sometimes. I'm gonna try turning it off and just focusing on the animations. I mean, I already don't use the meter for jumpshots, so why not?

[@SheedShoots]

Keep going brother

[@anlomoe1968]

I’m having a lot of fun using Lamelo Ball layup package 🔥

[@CharlesSlaughter-b4y]

Yo my dude I'm so glad I happened upon your content, I'm definitely going work diligently to try and put the info to good use and hope I can be one of the ones to do your tutoring justice, God knows I need any helpful advice I can receive I'm not completely awful but all that online play and running against live ops has never been my bag, just because of some of the people you paid up against and the way they play the game just not fun, but dig my dude if you can would you mind putting together a video on how to defend that four out offense, man I be getting the business done to me FR when I run up against that, and hey if you can how about dropping something on how to run a couple plays ,I mean I just now realized I can do that in 2KU but I don't know what's some good plays that you should definitely have in your bag, again never ran plays before either but nowadays it seems like you almost have to bring more to the floor ya get me, anyway my guy thanks in advance for whatever you put out, and again for what you've already dropped, stay wit it fam because you seem to really have the patience to give us all the info required to build your game and I promise you, that's gonna take you further than any other content creators if you keep the teaching aspect going for you and just hit us with bite size pieces at a time fam, all these different buttons combos can be a bit much to absorb in large quantities, but you gotta bring it how you bring it , I'm gonna keep a eye out for ya for sure, stay up bro!, Respect

[@CharlesSlaughter-b4y]

Oh , I also forgot to add that I haven't even touched my career yet ,I just went straight for my team not sure if that makes a huge difference or not but I just realized your kinda dropping knowledge for created player's, so if you can help in that arena appreciate you

[@Lotzo]

Ok okay.. That's what we doing now 🤔💯

[@bronsonmcclain3425]

Can you make a breakdown video for when to use which layup?

[@Tcat_333]

Yeah I got you

[@hopenationgaming]

Another great one!!!! Keep it up T

[@kingjulyan7]

When you do an acrobatic layup(change layup mid-air)… is the animation just random or do you choose which way side you want to finish on. The layup that basically doesn’t have layup timing

[@Tcat_333]

You choose which hand and which side to finish on to a degree with the right stick

[@abstract5980]

What you think about James harden for 2 step badge? Clean euro imo

[@Tcat_333]

I like it actually

[@nolimitscarrr]

do you have any tips for guards that have no driving dunk on the fast break. i see that it has become very common in 2k24 and when im running for the fast break in the rec and go for a layup i always fear they gon get a chase down block so i need you to touch on that

[@Tcat_333]

I like Lebron for that

[@nolimitscarrr]

@@Tcat_333 which animation should i trigger though? scoops or floaters or just a regular layup

[@svenscheurer6560]

Get 40 driving dunk for cj mccollum dunk package and youll be fine

[@nolimitscarrr]

@@svenscheurer6560 im not making a new build just to get 40 driving dunk. i tried getting 36 driving dunk during the making of my build but it didnt work out how i wanted it to

Does pro touch give a boost for the layup timing tho?

[@Tcat_333]

Yeah

@@Tcat_333 ok. What would be the benefit to turning off the meter? It's it to not rely on it

Beautiful gameplay bro. You said the layup animation is Kobe in the clips you put in the vid?

Yessir Kobe layup

[@nuggetboy19]

Thought Pro Touch only works if you have your meter on?

[@Tcat_333]

It’s for layup timing not meter

[@7eventy4u]

what you think is minimum layup to be nice with them?

[@acehuncho1819]

I put in work with mid 70s

[@Tcat_333]

Tough to say. I saw LaMonsta go crazy with mid 70s but I wouldn’t feel comfortable with less than 88. It’s preference

[@lamarjackson9182]

Whats the best layup rating and package for someone who mainly does floaters? Is it 80 for trae?

[@Tcat_333]

Maybe ja morant

[@derrickmatthews4682]

Do you have to time the double clutch lays?

[@Tcat_333]

No but they don’t work as well as last year even with HOF acrobat

Good video bro I subbed 🔥

[@Darious16]

What package would you reccomend for 85 layup?

[@Tcat_333]

[@teegee1063]

Can you test to see if bulldozer ,physical handles and fearless finisher stack together when doing certain layups ?

[@davidreyes-cabral519]

Been waiting on this one 💪🏽

[@KennnnyT]

Because everyone has different animation, you should go over the layup packages before the gameplay

[@sslimerz6129]

What’s your shot timing cue? Does that play a part in how you release your layups?

[@Tcat_333]

Set point and no

[@Philjwel]

Hahahaha you play just like me. Layups are so overpowered because so many badges stack with badges like two step and bunny (fearless finisher, giant slayer, slithery). I’m so surprised when I play and I’m just killing defenders with and 87 layup. I’m surprise more people don’t do euros and hop steps

[@ForeverOHERO]

Anthony edwards got limitless range floaters

[@Huggyword-jt5]

Trae young has good floaters and scoops

[@oo6LACKoo]

I’m on a big man with a 80 driving layup. I have been using Joel Embiid. But my other options are Nikola, Jokić and Zion Wiliams. Which one do you think would be a good option?

[@smjee9822]

i’m having the same problem

[@Tcat_333]

Hard to say honestly because I haven’t tested them but probably whatever gives you the fastest animations at that height

[@hernan2838]

I use Jokic what I like about Jokic is his floaters and close shots are fast, his scoops are easier to time as well but if you do it wrong you'll get swatted. His regular layups are great though because he gets right up and close to the basket so its hard for defenders to block, that would be up on the right stick while running

[@TSishere]

Bruhh yo voice made for movies 🤣😭

[@vinish0w]

Best euro package for 6'6 and 84 lay? I'm using Lamelo, but I don't feel very comfortable using it

Try Demar or harden

[@anlomoe1968]

I’m having a blast using Lamelo it’s either green or free throws and I’m on a 6’8 SF 87 layup

[@vinish0w]

unfortunately I only have 84, I'm still using Lamelo's and I've gotten used to the animations, now I just have to wait for the next seasons for them to release Lavine's I don't understand why people are using DeRozan's, I tested it and found the animations really horrible@@anlomoe1968

[@TheThinkingMansTemplar]

I have a jamal crawford build with a 97 layup. All the HOF badges YO slithery , giant slayer seems to negate the contest so the green window is more stable. Also have a Luka build 223 6'7 with 95 strength and bulldozer and physical handles combined with HOF finishing badges is crazy.. dunk is not needed for sure.. and having a high layup is way cheaper and just a effective..

[@hdjdjdjdbzuxieje4806]

Recommended layup package?

[@Cupidblr]

everytime i go for a floater if the big man slightly contest me it speeds it up so much and says very late everytime how do i stop that

Are you holding sprint? Try waiting till the ball bounces off the rim to press the shoot button to get a put back while holding sprint

[@ooxKINGKONGxoo]

Thank you very much. I appreciate you. I don't hold sprint when I am under the basket already and yeah I do know how to manually do a put back. From the help i got on other sites It seems like that's the only way around this auto lay up put back bullshit is to do manual put backs all the time.
