Cruz how do you get so much spacing in rec? I could never take the ball in for a one on one layup. Always at least half the lobby in there. Also do you run with people or just join random rec? Im trying to be carried
@KevinCruz01622 сағат бұрын
I'm showing the best stuff, but this isn't always the case man, as you know, random rec can be hell, and I just try to tell teammates to clear space for me and make sure that I also hit them when they are open or in a position to score. Makes them more cooperative

When your driving for a layup do you worry about the defenders attributes? Do you avoid centres or just rely on your timing?
@KevinCruz01622 сағат бұрын
I worry more about their help defense tendencies more than anything, if they're in deep drop in front of the lane, I won't push my luck. If they're slow and late to rotate, I'll always go for the drive, and if they meet me up top because they're concerned of my middy, I'm going right past them every time. Only type of big I'll avoid is those versatile defender/enforcer types that have juiced speed, vertical, block, and both perimeter and interior D. If that's the case, I'll look for my middy more than the layup

Hi Kevin, just wondering if the second move would also be effective with stick contact dunk instead of your physical finisher layup?
@KevinCruz016Күн бұрын
Absolutely, as long as everything is in position, that's another way of using Strong handle to open up other parts of your game! But it's gonna be less forgiving in terms of activation, so you have to read the lanes more than you would with physical finisher

How important do you think speed with ball is when it comes to creating separation for your shot making?
@KevinCruz01622 сағат бұрын
I think getting SWB to reach lightning launch at gold or hall of fame is important to get the initial bit of separation through contact. It works the same as strong handle, but causes less obvious stagger animations, but what you'll get is the blowby animation that let's you slip past your defenders initially. From there work the badge and animation combos as you see in this video! Personally I'm targeting at least gold lightning launch, but always HOF strong handle

@KevinCruz016 Do you think agility is good for offense or is it mainly for defense? Trying to decide whether to put more attributes on my swb or agility or do you need both.

@KevinCruz01622 сағат бұрын
Do you mean PC settings sir or capture card settings idol? PS5 gamit ko bro, and for capture settings, I run an elgato hd60x through my PC and capture at 1080p. But if you mean PC graphic settings, try mo gamitin yung NVIDIA app to optimize your settings! Basta naka off sa akin ang Ray Tracing nung triny ko sa PC, pero 3080 yung GPU ko.

What’s that spin u was using when driving?
@KevinCruz01621 сағат бұрын
So I have Derozan spin equipped, but you'll get that kind of strong handle spin regardless of what animation package you use as long as you spin out of contact against someone that isn't a great defender.

To activate strong handle or the cross over or spin. Are we holding RT?
@KevinCruz01622 сағат бұрын
no need! Even the triple threat strong handle burst, you just have to use the right RS input, or in the triple threat strong handle case, just push the LS to the side that they're leaving open.

Kevin have you played with the Drive camera angle? I feel like it’s very good and immersive for shot creator gameplay and gives me way more consistent dribble animations.
@koppurbroКүн бұрын
I like the drive angle for these reasons: -makes it easier for my brain to dribble in the correct direction -helps to see my player clearly when driving through traffic -better for being in the corner than 2k angle I dont like it for these reasons: -cant always see at the top of the 3pt line -cant always see up the court when inbounding -such a slowwwww camera spin after a change of possession -being in the corner with the ball often doesnt let you see the other side of the halfcourt If there was a way to fix those problems it would be the best
@Cameron00Күн бұрын
@ definitely some trade offs with visibility but there has never been a scenario where having that extra visibility would have resulted in a bucket in my case

@@Cameron00 yeah its good for getting buckets. I wish i could see more cuz i like passing the ball around too. Just gotta know where people are i guess

It'll be good enough against weak defenders for sure, but try plus one on it to silver, it's surprisingly good, but gold is where it gets really good!
