Pretty much mid range deadeye, difficult shots, irrelevant. It's sad too because before this patch more people were beginning to see good this archetype could be but now they ruined. SMH. Going back to my sharpshooter at this point. What a shame.

its not that shot creator too weak, but how sharpshooter overpowered because hof limitless range badge and those extra range bank shots goes in as well as open dunks for slashers .

Re: Player Archetypes NBA 2k17

So this athletic finisher was killing my bigs. He was catching alleys all over them . And getting in perfect position for dunks. They wanted to double him . I decided to guard the playmaker who threw them using my LDD SF.

The PG had 9 assists and 2 TOs at halftime . By the end of the game he had 11 assists and 9 TOs lol. The LDD affect is real. I don't even have my grand badge yet.

2k: By keeping the games close, less people rage quit and it's more enjoyable for both parties. Would you rather have someone rage after 1 quarter of being dominated or be cheesed to keep him in it with a chance to steal the game if you make 1 mistake?

He rages, you get VC faster and they potentially lose a new customer. They cheese for him and they keep a new customer and an old player rage buys new players and packs to make his team better.

Can any post scorers tell me if hooks are effective in this game? Never see anybody use them in park or team up etc.
if you know how to use them they can be i personally stick to Dropsteppers, post fades their most consistent for me and also post spins. i love dropstepping the most though theirs nothing the defense can do if you time it right and bang your body into your defender for that drop step dunk animation especially if its on hall of fame. i love my glass cleaner but my post scorer is slowly becoming my main go to archetype build. + that 77 midrange if boosted 82

Now that the relentless finisher badge is fixed I really think the Slasher PG build is the best for a PG. My dude is ridiculous in game. I have a playmaker as well but I always go back to my Slasher. The Hall of Fame posterizer badge is seriously insane.

The Archetype is made to live off runners, Step backs, And hop steps. Are you shooting moving shots, or pausing to set? Paging EveretteWarren...
