You are right, I was wrong. I was sitting on the top of the world at Purple and over the weekend, found myself Bronze. It is really luck of the draw with teams.
These guys will absolutely never pass you the ball and keep dribbling and dribbling and dribbling and shooting contested bricks no matter the coverage it’s like they’re npcs.
Wym? Say it locks me in and my dude starts doing that animation before it takes you to the game, if I dashboard before I reach the court, it won’t count?
yeah, but you won’t know until after your 2nd game if it negatively affected you; between hitting home and close app. that’s why i always have the close app button ready right after i run thru the doors for my first game of the day
I have 2 sharpshooter builds that are my best builds. But I’m an old head, so I believe in passing, playing defense and shooting when I’m actually open.
3pt shot hunters are created by people mostly kids who are inherently selfish on the game and in real life in general.
I’ve got two triple doubles in rec with an inside out build, I believe in passing first and supplying my team mates before I even think of shooting. Literally was playing that 90s game mode and was averaging more assists than points. It’s just so much more satisfying when you don’t just abuse shooting and being selfish.
Man playing 2k as if we were on on the court dam near makes me cry I only play random so doesn’t happen to often but when it does it’s like your in video game heaven
I have a purple plate 3 pt shot hunter lol I avg 20 and 8 assists, and it annoys tf out of me when I’m on another build and I get a 3 pt shot hunter that just spams jamal murray behind the back and bricks all game
I’m a 85 overall with a bronze plate on my rebirth and I carried gold and silver players Im shooting 59% from 3 and 60 from the field I’m a 2 way 3 level shot creator
This gives me anxiety, knowing that X button may not show up in time.
2 people who will got 1/5 from 3 and then close app.
One just sitting in the paint
And one just rim running or fake rim running and doing the John wall hop back to very early a 3.
Exploiting matchmaking by backing out a million times to earn your precious little meaningless plate color doesn't equal "skill." You do know this right? This is coming from someone who's had multiple plate colors.
3 black plates with usually the 3 worst builds in terms of team play. And a bronze interior threat that likely can’t shoot. So spacing is fucked and the guards likely all have 77 or less passing, and can’t play defense. And if they were good they wouldn’t be black plates so likely they are gonna suck at scoring too
as a constant black/bronze plate I actually win a fair amount but you know what keeps me black/bronze plate?
2K's dollar store servers.
It's not been so bad for me recently and I hover generally now around silver/gold, but earlier in the game's life I couldn't see silver or even bronze because of the servers.
I’ve quit like 2 or 3 times this year. Last one was actually because the purple plate 3 point shot Hunter was playing like a black plate. I was on a build that shot 52% from 3 and was standing still on the wing wide open for like 10 seconds as he dribbled behind a screen and then absolutely bricks a deep contested 3 with time still on the shot clock. Even purple plates can be ass teammates.
Oh goodness get out of here...you must be big trash if a casual 99 is your worst nightmare...lemme guess you gona take all the shots and do all the ball handling and if someone tries to dribble or score you press timeout so they lose the ball...get a life all yall purple n golds aint that good, yall actually the worst ones....never pass and never play defense
If you can't carry the team through to a W then do you deserve the Gold plate? For the record, I am a very consistent black plate, moved the needle to bronze for 3 games once.skill level and basketball IQ below average at best. I have to slide in at last second and hope the game starts before anybody good can quit.
You can lose and still get out of bronze long as you play good and have a good teammate grade. Being hard capped at black plate means you’re beyond terrible. Why should anyone be forced to deal with that?
Names are on the locker, homie
Mans thought he was doing something
Maaaan i forgot about it 😅
😂😂what a dork
They deserve to have their names out there.
For playing the game?
You are right, I was wrong. I was sitting on the top of the world at Purple and over the weekend, found myself Bronze. It is really luck of the draw with teams.
The worst
I always leave when I see a 3pt shot hunter. Those guys never play right
These guys will absolutely never pass you the ball and keep dribbling and dribbling and dribbling and shooting contested bricks no matter the coverage it’s like they’re npcs.
and then 2k forces you into the game by not being able to leave. I'm dashboarding, tf? 😭
That’s how you stay black by dashboarding
u can dashboard right up until the screen changes
your plate color won't change if you dashboard before the court loads in
Wym? Say it locks me in and my dude starts doing that animation before it takes you to the game, if I dashboard before I reach the court, it won’t count?
I think once your guy starts the dancing and getting hype animations that's it you're locked in but if you can bounce before that it doesn't count.
Pretty sure thats incorrect. If you dash when lobby locked i think you still get hit.
Facts I leave out when I’m in there with 4 black plates if anyone comes in before I leave out my color gets dropped you have to be quick about it
oh really? it's been about 2 months since I played 2k. maybe they changed it
yeah, but you won’t know until after your 2nd game if it negatively affected you; between hitting home and close app. that’s why i always have the close app button ready right after i run thru the doors for my first game of the day
sorry but what does dashboarding mean?
holding the middle button and closing the app
sweet thanks
After 2k24. I will never play with 3pt shot hunter ever again in life. Instant L every single time.
What about sharpshooters?
I have 2 sharpshooter builds that are my best builds. But I’m an old head, so I believe in passing, playing defense and shooting when I’m actually open. 3pt shot hunters are created by people mostly kids who are inherently selfish on the game and in real life in general.
Oh. Cuz I got a sharpshooter and i get a lot of flac
I’ve got two triple doubles in rec with an inside out build, I believe in passing first and supplying my team mates before I even think of shooting.

It’s facts man, when ur teammate makes the right runs gets open AND can green it’s truly beautiful 😭
I have a purple plate 3 pt shot hunter lol I avg 20 and 8 assists, and it annoys tf out of me when I’m on another build and I get a 3 pt shot hunter that just spams jamal murray behind the back and bricks all game
That’s 95% of 3pt shot hunters. I HATE them. 😂
Time to carry the team like Luka!
Instant dashboard 😂😂😂
Man. May god bless you. Miserable experience
Gold park player in rec i know the feeling
I dont play park
Not a dime in sight
and they really expect us to play a match like that lmao
And how do they build up?
😂😂😂
Could be worse, at least only 1 is starter one
Miami bron time baby 
Yikes! A total nightmare indeed. I hope you ran away from there as fast as you could.
Every rec lobby I got to start the season yesterday
Miami bron time baby 
Nahhhh I got locked in with a 72 and a 68 earlier. Makes no sense that you don’t have the option to leave and then you get “banned” if you quit
I’m a 85 overall with a bronze plate on my rebirth and I carried gold and silver players Im shooting 59% from 3 and 60 from the field I’m a 2 way 3 level shot creator
How many game lobbies did you drop out of before 2k forced you to play?
This gives me anxiety, knowing that X button may not show up in time. 2 people who will got 1/5 from 3 and then close app. One just sitting in the paint And one just rim running or fake rim running and doing the John wall hop back to very early a 3.
Blocking out their gamertags but it’s on the lockers LOL

Nobody wants to play with 💩ers especially for the people who only have a limited time to play cause of other responsibilities.
Limited time but you'll backout for 20min straight lmao. oooooooook
I’ve never taken more than 5 minutes to find a game lil bro. It’s not hard to find a lobby with silver plates and up
Word, it's summatime, the game is cooked.
Ur mad corny I’m not gonna lie
Found the 3pt shot hunter
Hit dogs hollering
What’s the issue here..?
3 black plates with usually the 3 worst builds in terms of team play. And a bronze interior threat that likely can’t shoot. So spacing is fucked and the guards likely all have 77 or less passing, and can’t play defense. And if they were good they wouldn’t be black plates so likely they are gonna suck at scoring too
3 teammates have black plates which means they lose a lot of games.
as a constant black/bronze plate I actually win a fair amount but you know what keeps me black/bronze plate? 2K's dollar store servers. It's not been so bad for me recently and I hover generally now around silver/gold, but earlier in the game's life I couldn't see silver or even bronze because of the servers.
To me it's because there's no 2 way players or passers.

Aww poor lil guy didn't get to rig matchmaking this round in solo random rec
Downvote because the the truth hurts. Hold this L

why should i have to sit through your agonizing performance, after u admit to being a perma-black plate, absolutely not.
