I don't think it is a guaranteed fall from each iso...

I am not expecting it to be every iso. But for there to be a signature skill for it is really immature. Not something I expect from a simulation game. It happens but it is a freak thing that rarely happens. Anyone can make someone else fall but it rarely happens. Hell, I have seen Luke Ridnour make Gilbert Arenas fall years ago, should he have it.

I don't like it at all. Just put it in the game if the little kids want to see it but make it super rare. Don't give player's labels. But of course Diop or Chris Kaman shouldn't make someone fall but I don't like this as a skill

not but luke ridnour doesn't do it often like Derrick Rose. Rose's crossover is lethal. and should he have a Bynum or Novak guarding him , that defender should be lost or dropped easilyyy. an anklebreaker doesn't always mean they fell to the floor.

Jordan has 5.

Ronnie 2k said it only goes up to 5 and not every player will have the max. In fact, he said many superstars will have less than other players. The point of the sig skills isn't to necessarily make a player more dominant, although it does seem that some skills will definitely help that, but to make them play closer to the style they play in real life. Some role players will find themselves with multiple sigs, because they do a lot of little things.

Ok listen to what I have to say Shump.

It is a cheesy skill. There should not be an Ankle Breaking skill for a simulation basketball game.

We have a dribbling rating. We have sub-ratings via Abilities that were introduced in 2K12.

There is no reason to have this in the game for 2K13. It is cheesy and immature.

People can fall randomly and rarely by using the Abilities/Dribbling Ratings. Why not just use that, why make the game more arcade by adding that skill?

It is childish. I really don't see how that can be argued.

Poor Ronnie, I didn't know that he suffered from Retrograde amnesia. That is quite unfortunate.
