It’s broken on 2 Way slashing playmakers as wel. I have a 95 defensive rebounding on takeover and i have snagged over Glass Cleaning Locks before when they had glass cleaning takeover
I think Pick pocket is the most annoying badge, not because it makes you get ripped more often, but because guards can just consistently spam the steal button on ball and cancel your dribble animations and not get reach in fouls
J Alva Agree super hard with this. It’s still not a great badge overall but it’s glitchy on HOF, you can be so annoying with reaches and spam your ass off.
Isolation Bob exactly cuz every guard got hof unpluckable like that ain’t one of the most annoying badges ever makes locks turn to a nigga wit above average defense
@@Quise. he didn't say he gets more steals, neither of us said that. We're saying it's annoying because it lets people just spam X or Square to cancel dribble animations and hardly ever get reach in fouls
i thought inceptor would be at least a B tier, i use it on silver, not because i need it to get passing lane steals, because that’s just mostly iq, but it turns a lot of deflections in to steals and i get much better animations so i’m not running out of bound if i miss the steal
without interceptor at least on bronze if you attempt and miss a steal in the passing lane your guy's arms flail and puts you out of defensive position.
15:05 It's ironic, I was watching a video earlier and in it Dwight got crossed up but recovered so ridiculously fast to block the shot, I used to love Dwight Howard in his prime, my build is basically his.
Interceptor is really good if you’re playing bums, or if you have high steal rate, if you don’t have either and have a 40 steal as any build don’t mind getting it.
I disagree with moving truck and post move lockdown. Moving truck on silver/gold stops post scorers from even moving my 7ft center completely. Post move lockdown doesn’t really stop dropsteps or post spins tbh
I have my pick dodger on bronze and it is more than enough. If you have it on hof your guy will slide under every screen and the offensive player will get open
I use these three on my glass lock, I beast out in the paint. You still have to time your jumps to get the block though. Pogo stick is awesome too and it helps with blocks as well.
I feel like lighting reflexes help me get the interception ,since when I didn’t have it I would always tip the pass, but hof lighting reflexes helps me get the ball instead of tipping it
No cap, pick pocket is my bread and butter dude, as long as you get the timing down and notice when someone is being careless w/ their handles it’s rip rip city all day boy.
I can't say that I have any objections, except for maybe Chasedown Artist and Rim Protector. I'm a guard/wing and there's almost nothing more gratifying than snatching a layup/dunk attempt by a big, or stealing the other team's thunder by erasing what should've been a guaranteed basket. 😎 So, I would agree that those should've definitely been in the A-Tier. Brick Wall also might need to be knocked down a peg into the B-Tier; but retaining it's color code for it's effectiveness for builds that have the badge point luxury.
Pogo Stick needs to be in S tier. I swear on HOF it’s the most OP thing. Also if you don’t have RP or GC takeover a higher rim protecting badge helps amazing towards takeover
Im a 7’3 and HOF Rebound Chaser is my favorite badge on my player my guy is very slow but gets a speed boost to chase rebound and almost teleports to them
Off ball pest is a must bronze in a 5v5 setting. If you are a corner build on defence and you only get one badge. Off ball pest. You can atleast block off back door cuts
Only thing I have to say about rebound chaser is that I use it on bronze on my 6’7 when I run the 3 and it helps me not get those animations where my player gets bumped and drops the ball off of a board. I also feel like it gives you more snag animation. BUT I agree and don’t think that it is necessary cause I can get rebounds with it
gunitgunit98 Personally when I’m going for rebounds I make sure I go for the box out first. If I get the box when the ball bounces off I press triangle/Y. If I know I’m not getting the box I start from the free throw and run and press triangle when it reaches the rim and my HOF rebound chaser kicks in and I get some bs boards. I average 5.5 boards in park, about 13 in pro am and 18 in rec so I think I’m a pretty reliable source 😄
As a lockdown sg a lot of the top tier badges are useless for me I’m not using pogo, brick wall, d leader, reb chaser so those D and C become good for me
I have a 6’7 Facilitating Finisher with almost maxed arms with a 76 block and i found that you really only need chasedown and rim protector on bronze just to get the animations, anything over that is overkill.
As an offensive threat with 8 defensive badges what should i have on? I know im maxing clamps and intimidator but i don’t know what to do with the other two points to maximize my defense, please help.
I’m a 6’10 paint beast center with HoF rebound chaser and now I’m wondering if I need it that high. I get hella boards tho. Not sure if that’s cause of the badge or not.
Do you think it makes sense to have: clamps on gold, chasedown bronze and pick dodger silver for a 6'3 SG Offensive threat ? (6def badges) Wish I maxed the block instead of the steal as chasedown artist seems quite OP
Ngl man that build doesn’t sound very good, especially as a sg. If you really want to keep a short guard make it a pg for more badges, sg’s should be taller
I will say this once... If you only have one badge upgrade for d, put that shii on intimidator cuz it's broken whenever you have for example a pure sharp or slashing play cuz its op
Majority of this really does vary upon the build.. I love Moving Truck gold on my 6'9 rebounding wing but I understand why its so low. I think ChaseDown bronze is dead ass S tier the quality of blocks you get just for having it on bronze is crazy.
Moving truck is not for defending its for walking through the post and get a good position for rebounds or high passes etc. My opinion its at least a b tier since it works how it should.
You have to time it and be in good position but I feel it’s just being in front of your man to grab the board sometimes my center just reaches for the rebound on his own
You should make a "key" so we know what each color means. Edit: I realize that you aligned it with the color of the boxes. It's just kinda hard to tell because the colors don't really math the font sometimes. No hate, I love your videos. Just my opinion
I have an interior force that I pretty much only play on the 3s and the only way I was getting rebounds was having Rebound chaser at the highest level (gold), without this I was being outboarded by every other center even when I had position.
You hella underrating Moving truck, gold Moving truck cancels out Hof backdown punisher and hof and he doesn’t go anywhere. Then add hof post move lockdown and you clamp post scorers

Wait so if I play 42 regular season games and win a champ I get that gym rat badge and +4 for every physical and what do you mean by no workouts ever? Like no gym or no badge grinding at team facility
That’s a myth, it’s in your head or just server lag. They debunked it and Mike Wang himself responded to a tweet about it saying it doesn’t work that way.
Rebound chaser on hall of fame as a 7’3 big is broken. You will teleport to rebounds with the speed of point guards

Your One Black Friend Who Gave you the N Word Pass. Same. I have to have it on.
Your One Black Friend Who Gave you the N Word Pass same on my 7’3 big its op

mariano santiniello agreed you put those 3 together oh lord you could block anybody in the game
I have low rebounding on my offensive center. Rebound chaser on Hof is a must for me. It's A tier to absolutely in my situation
Rim protector and chase down combo is so good. You literally teleport from the free throw line to the backboard regardless of speed or acceleration
Facts lol
Loooool factsss
I feel like lighting reflexes help me get the interception ,since when I didn’t have it I would always tip the pass, but hof lighting reflexes helps me get the ball instead of tipping it

Rebound chacer is better then c, it helps you by changing your rebound animations and you end up getting more rebounds
15:24 Dwight Howard IS an undersized big, dudes 6'9 w/0 shoes. He even said so himself before
Chasedown is pretty OP, I sometimes jump foreward with like 2x my normal speed
Off ball pest is a must bronze in a 5v5 setting. If you are a corner build on defence and you only get one badge. Off ball pest. You can atleast block off back door cuts

Ayee been waiting broo
Does defensive leader work on the user as well?

P.A. Speed definitely
As a lockdown sg a lot of the top tier badges are useless for me I’m not using pogo, brick wall, d leader, reb chaser so those D and C become good for me
u should use d leader
I love rebound chaser. Turns your 7’3” into a HORSE. Definitely A tier
