I’m done with these “do it all builds” bc what usually ends up happening is I end up with a mid ass build that’s good-decent at everything, but excels at NOTHING! This year I’m going straight 3&D with HOF-Gold badges on both sides of the ball. I’m not a primary or secondary ball handler so don’t care about playmaking (just pass accuracy) and I’m gonna get enough slashing to complete lobs and finish when I cut to the basket. I like to guard 2-5 so I want some height/weight, but I play with a PG & a SG/SF so I need to be athletic enough to keep up with their tempo and get into position for a potential rebound.

[@JT_eNZed]

Much love from NZ. Key for me is what the shooting is going to be like and this is pretty tough to test without making a build and spending some VC on it to get a decent jumpshot out of the creator. I'm hearing rumors that the low 3 ball jumpers are not good and for me that's the big variable in the builder. Tailor physicals to higher or lower 3.

I guess so but for me im not playing the game the meta way sacrificing fun for 5-10% more win/loss

[@asiajackson1550]

Is the NBA template a good way to gauge how high or low you should put a certain attribute? For example if I know I only need to be able to make a couple 3a like Jason Tatum or Jaylen brown can I jus look at their attributes and go based off that

Who has a couple hundred dollars to waste? 2k used to have more variety when we could make multiple builds for cheaper VC. Everyone want the best build according to what position to play so don’t be surprised when you see copycat builds.

I just hope everyone don’t wait for those “Best build this, meta build that” videos so that everyone just copies each other. The game gets dry when you see the same builds every game because it’s “meta” hopefully this year makes people be original and actually build their own builds!
