Rules. Never go into solo rec unless your on a lock or a big. Because your gonna be very bored if u can’t rebound or play d because mfs will not pass the ball
If you know you’re a dog, come out here on a 6’8 PG with O board and you’ll have no problems. My 2 way diming slasher is by far my best build to run random rec on. The win percentage goes from 45-55% to 65-70% on that build cause I just control so much of the game.
@@evanwithers9158 u see u just missed the point of what I said. It has nothing to do with what your build is or how good you actually are. You are at the mercy of your dumbass teammates. You can be lebron but does it really matter if the randoms ain’t giving you the ball? Tahts what I’m tryna say, being good literally ain’t have anything to do with it. You can be a god level pg and not touch the ball once the whole half. It’s just very irritating that they restart your city rep level on each new build. I shouldn’t have to travel though he’ll just because they wanna start me from the bottom all over again. Fixing that will solve alot of the issues. Let the bums play with bums. I shouldn’t be a purple level player playing with casual mfs just because I made a new build
Funny enough, I've had a better time playing bum rec than 92+ rec. I also feel like it depends on what time of the day you play. Mornings usually mean you'll get old heads (like myself) who usually tend to play ball with good IQ, but if you play past 1pm you will be matched up with a lot of high school kids with no clue on how this game works
I only squad up when my brother is around so I play a lot of solo rec for the reasons above. Can't be bothered to wait and message ppl. Somehow this season I'm over 75% solo and like 66% when I'm squadded up. I have no idea why or how..but I'll take it
When 2K24 first came out, there was no 92 and under since everyone was on new builds for the most part. One of these updates a few weeks ago enabled 92 and under Rec.
I have been using my OG big guard build all yr but I just made a 6'6 and im at a 90. I have been putting off doing anything with it because I fear the bum rec 😂
I play solo rec all the time and it can be a headache but man it can be funny af in there. I swear almost every dude in there believes that they're the god of 2k, especially the bigs. Dudes be telling people how to play or you suck if you miss 2 shots and your a bad pg if you dont have 10+ assist
Bro I’m a center and I’m usually our main passer because I’m on 92 acc but I do not care as long as we win I can take 16 shots or 3 shots and I’m cool with either I only have an issue when people pass out of lays and send the ball to kingdom come or take a middy instead of getting to the rim on open breaks things of that nature or they just refuse to slow down a little and let things open up more
Solo bum rec is the only place I play. That or theatre 3v3 no squads. I don’t have people to play with. It’s kind of fun but my win rate is so bad. Edit; I know there are discord communities and stuff but the “good” players in there judge you on your win rate sooo. Gg.
2k needs to add a rank system. its crazy how every other game gas a rank mode for solo queuing, heck even cod has it. It would make playing with other squads more enjoyable since yall both know yall want to win. instead we get matched with people with no rank/selling when going against a 5 stack. 2k has the player base for rec. they are literally a top game in sales but thought squads & no squads would be a good idea if you say pro-am is ranked, its not. requires full 5 & matchmaking barely works because no one plays it
You're 100% right but streamers and RUclipsrs have convinced people that skill based matchmaking is the worst thing ever so I don't think it will happen anytime soon
@@Kareemonytthis game is built on noob stomping. Skill based matchmaking would have its own issues but I think 2k is just lazy to implement anything more complex
@@SunnyDovethat is true on both but if it was given as a option i feel it would be different. let it be ranked & unranked for left/right doors. if nobody plays ranked besides a few that’s perfect. the community still gets there unskilled MM, & the rest can play competitive games as a squad or solo queue.
@@SunnyDovejust played 1 no squads game last night…. had 35 on 14/18 shooting & the center kept passing the pg the ball who was chucking contested shots like poole in a 5 point game :| .this exactly the shit i be talking about
Ppl don’t like hooping w inside bigs bc they usually the worst players in the community. U dump it down to them in paint & they don’t know any post moves. & they set a screen & don’t know when to slip. So it ends up being 4 on 5. Bc they become useless on offense.
I don’t how people have a hard time in solo Rec if you go out there and only care about your self it’s going to be bad if you can make it work it’s really fun it’s a lot of good players out here squad Rec is trash idc what nobody says 😂😂
Honestly I tend to agree..I have a really good record in solo rec. Better than my record with squads. Gotta know how to work around people, have versatile builds, get on that mic every once in a while, set the tone with ball movement and on defense. If I have a decent big and someone that can shoot over 45% from 3...and maybe even people that stick to their assignments on defense...i feel like I can win most times. And if it's really bad you just gotta do your thing and hope the bad teammates grade/quit out.
I made the same comp center build 2 days ago, only issue notice when using this build is on defense, if the corners would cut back door and throw the alley i couldn’t do much as the big because i was continuously getting put in contact alleys. Note my friends would let their man get a free back door because since we’re in zone the paint is “my responsibility” so they would rotate up to the wing instead of slowing down the back door cut. Beside that keeping my hands up and jumping at the right time felt like the same as a build with 80+ interior/block . *sorry for the long reply & spelling error*
Well for me in solo rec I have more fun! I get match with bad teams and 2 out of 5 times, i get a good team but 5 teams more of team who play for themselves, now that learn my shot and game I been playing with more fun win or lose, and I learn that the A.i this year is golden, once you learn how to use them! Last night had three guys quit leaving me with one in solo rec! We down by 12 and came back with the help of A.i.. so I say this to say that it doesn’t matter, once I’m solo rec don’t think every game should be a win! For you it will stress you plus everything Will reset your record will reset your shooting will percentage will reset, so it doesn’t really matter if you win, you win yes, sometimes I get frustrated and quit when it’s really really bad like things not going my way because I know I should be making those shots but I learned that you know what stop quitting and take that L or fight to come back
Don’t know who they are matching you up with but i played with some of the best players i ever seen in this no squad rec .. i usually run pro am but only go there to rep up when my guys are not on
I play a lot of solo and I get good to decent enough teammates way more than any other year I can remember. Still a gamble but the fact that I'm winning 70% of my games is telling. Yeah it's easier when you have a gold or purple nameplate to get good teammates from backing out on you but Laker is right saying solo rec is in a pretty good place this yr.

Sorry but ik I heard shooting is bad on 2k24 but ain’t no way the sg is 0/7 in the 2nd half going into the 3rd it’s no way he gave no stats no nothing I had to rewind and look at stats at 14:15 it’s so bad that his man be leaving him open 💀
5:12 Laker just letting you know we DO appreciate the solo type content, especially me who primarily plays with randoms and not an organized squad. Seeing your style in action gives me direct takeaways that I can apply to my game. ⛹️
Rules. Never go into solo rec unless your on a lock or a big. Because your gonna be very bored if u can’t rebound or play d because mfs will not pass the ball
Real
Most games they hit me up on my guard. I average 20. Once they see u can score and they boxed they pass.
You never lied

Fax man, I dont make content but I run this random rec daily I just got 2 hrs I don't got time to wait for ppl to squad up n all that

@@dank4068if you good you’ll find people on your schedule
Solo Rec 92 and under will ruin your whole experience in just 1 game.
I didn't even know the 92 under rule
I thought they took that out?
When 2K24 first came out, there was no 92 and under since everyone was on new builds for the most part. One of these updates a few weeks ago enabled 92 and under Rec.
What i've learned from solo Rec is that Main Character syndrome is insanely common.
Absolutely

Yea you must be bad like 90% of the pgs this year

Lol, usually it is the pg who are toxic. Dribbling for 20 seconds and end up with 3-17 shots. They only want the centers to rebound and pass the Ball.
It's almost where you can't go into the rec period if you don't have 4 or 5. 2k community is full of either toxic people or completely bad players
I just mute game chat light a blunt and chill tbh
Solo bum rec is the only place I play. That or theatre 3v3 no squads. I don’t have people to play with. It’s kind of fun but my win rate is so bad. Edit; I know there are discord communities and stuff but the “good” players in there judge you on your win rate sooo. Gg.

Preach 😂😂
I love these type of videos cuz I play with a center so it helps

if you’re an inside big tht doesn’t meter standing dunk, pls delete the build.
5:40 i bet the challenge is. 0 finishing attributes. you will be chained to only shooting. Pew pew pew
What passing style are you using on your High passing bigs ?
Hali or melo depends on preference
I love your SF version of this build. I killed in bum rec.
I just made a sf but really a hybrid pf cuz I'm 6'10 can do it all 😂 💯
So now that you’re testing it, and seeing how low interior defense works, do you still think 61 interior defense will be comp on a 4 or 5 build?
I made the same comp center build 2 days ago, only issue notice when using this build is on defense, if the corners would cut back door and throw the alley i couldn’t do much as the big because i was continuously getting put in contact alleys.

man fuck that laker i back out every time til I see competent players…131-32 on the season with a few runs w my 5 in there too
Hell yeah I ain’t really trying to play unless I got at least 2 people that look like they can hoop randoms or not
LakerFan . . . I just gotta see you on a HOF Anchor build. I know it's probably not worth it but I wanna see it man. Maybe even get a 10 block game 👀

Pick and roll is great if both sides understand the concept

You say better but this dude went for contact dunks which your build can’t get, they just different builds bro
Which build is he using
Scrub rec till I'm 98, I need to grind, haven't been playing much these days.
Cs r amazing in solo rec. I be putting up 20 n 20s in my sleep as long as all 4 of my teammates aren't completely brain dead we win by 20 every time
Can yu make an sga build
big yes to your comment about outside bigs need to be capable too many "poppers" in the rec shooting 16-25% you're not a popper LOL
I call em Ploppers
That’s literally me 😂 big jumpers are so ass for 6’11 bigs and I already have a lot of speedups on my pg with a 93 middy
Sorry but ik I heard shooting is bad on 2k24 but ain’t no way the sg is 0/7 in the 2nd half going into the 3rd it’s no way he gave no stats no nothing I had to rewind and look at stats at 14:15 it’s so bad that his man be leaving him open 💀
“Solo bum” rec. that’s a bit excessive 😢
That's literally what everyone calls 92 and under rec man
Lmao. Hella depressing bro. Pick me up brotha 🤘🏽
