 Yo, this is the long awaited badge grind video. I've got on my badges hull of fame I'm gonna work on tireless score of gold, but that for me is no longer priority. I'm testing jump shots again I'm back on prime. I'm having a little bit more fun. The badge grind is something serious We're talking about the key badges for sharpshooters corner specialist deep range dead eye Limitless range and catching shoot I'm gonna start speaking on some general tips and then we'll dive into the specific badges to talk about how to Get them fast skip games against lockdown defense the amount of times I went up against Clay Thompson or Kawhi Leonard and just had an awful game is ridiculous those long tall defenders will give you a Torturous time with these shooting bags just remind yourself when you're hopping into a my career game because my career is the best way to Do this if you know there's gonna be a lockdown defender on the other team Hit it with a juke and skip on to the next game the percentages matter this year when you're grinding for badges last year I could chuck up shots all day and go for deep range dead eye this year if I'm shooting 35% Is gonna be a lost game most games you want to be shooting over 50% if possible, especially if you're a pure sharpshooter There's no excuse to shoot under 50% pretty much on all of these badges You're gonna want to either put pressure defense go for traps or pretty much cherry pick There's especially when I was going for corner specialist. I'll speak on I literally didn't even show up for defense I just fit in the corner and then when the other team break the shot they would chuck it full court for me So there's gonna be a lot of that you want to click square once you click it twice And they usually call foul on me so click it once it doesn't work Just run back to the other and get ready for offense and last before we hop into the individual badges themselves play on pro Difficulty if you hop on the park it will change your difficulty to online park sliders You do not want to be playing on those it's more challenging than pro difficulty switch it back to pro every time you hop back on My career now I'm gonna be speaking specifically about my career a lot because that's basically where I did most of this But you want to switch it up because if you go on my career all the time the amount you make stairs to slowly dwindle So every like four micro game switch it up with a pro lamb game And then go right back to my at no point what I recommend for these badges Do you do them on the park the only badge? I've noticed gets done really well in the park is difficult shop. I got that on silver by accident I wasn't even grinding for that. We're gonna get started on what for me initially seemed like the most challenging batch to get But what became with catch and shoot the easiest badges to get for your sharpshooter and that's limitless range I want to give a shout out to snubby because I was tweeting out my frustrations He hit me up and say yo agent you need to try this method Basically, you want to hold turbo and flip back on your right stick. I don't have pro job moves I don't have a leech of moves You can do this with any player and you'll do step backs and you'll create room and for whatever reason the AI doesn't close That room you do it. You can't use pick and rolls this year. They just they always hedge the pick and roll They beat you to the point. I tried picking pops. They work sometimes But your garbage teammates never hit you when you're open It is such a challenge to shoot from limitless Especially if you're not a pierced sharpshooter, it's gonna be difficult So you want to get to the three-point line do a put step back do another step back if you need more room And then pull up for the shot You'll get the room you need at that point It's just about releasing the ball correct and that's all there is to it literally Point blank period once you start using this method you can get 15,000 20,000 a game on my career for limitless range and in fact limitless range is also a very easy one to get on Pro-am as well, especially if you're a primary sharpshooter or a pure sharpshooter Most of the shots I take are from limitless range because people always gonna keep an eye on you when you're a sharpshooter Especially a pure sharpshooter. They're going to close you out And so I use that limitless range to create some distance. So I'm not gonna dive too deep into this I'll leave snubbies link in the description or show them some love because before I found out about this move I was trying the whole thing, you know, I even tried you know, how you can do a step back You can click back on the left stick and click square and it'll do the weird little it was it Trust me. I tried it all but that method right there is the only one I found to work The next one is catching shoot. There is no point of me explaining how to get catching shoot You will get that badge by accident Do not ever do a workout to grind catching shoot in the practice facility Do not at any point focus your efforts on catching shoot It will just come catches you has to be one of the easiest badges in the game to get you just have to shoot a High percentage if you're shooting a booty 20% from the three-point you it must gonna take you pretty long to get Hall of Fame So as long as you're shooting 40% plus you're solid. All right, the next one is the most challenging one by far Welcome y'all. This is deep range that I were talking about now We're gonna spend an extensive time on this one because I will save you guys hours here in this video hours upon hours upon hours I I I tried all the methods all right I tried everything to try and make it work with this deep range that I it was killing me So again, my career is the best way to get this badge But between my career games you can head to the practice facility now you guys should know about the practice facility already You shouldn't need an explanation there You can do the deep range that I drill you only need to hit four out of the ten shots to get a three-star every time You get a three-star you'll get 800 points towards deep range that I and 200 points towards catching shoot You do that three times you leave the practice facility and go There's a juice bar right outside the practice facility when you go there It'll give you a plus one practice you go back into the practice facility You do that last practice and then you hop into a micro a game So in total between your micro games you should be going to four deep range that I practices 800 a piece. Let me do some quick math. That's 3,200 every between every game you should begin 3200 towards deep range that I between every game every single game you're gonna need though now when it comes to deep range That I once you finish the game it actually tells you to get it You have to shoot contested deep three but all throughout the time. I was going for limitless range I was shooting contested deep threes. It wasn't like I was being left open for those So I was like, bro, how do you get this batch man? But I realized I said yo for just forget deep range that I'll go for corner specialist And when I started to go for corner specialist, I realized bro I'm starting to get deep range that I the best way in my career to get deep range that I is To head to the corner give yourself a little bit of room do the same step backs you were doing for limitless range But now you're doing it for deep range that I put up one pump fake and then go up for the shop The one pump fake is essential to being able to get deep range that I the shot feedback will be on the top Right of the screen you want that to say heavily contested for whatever reason if you do the step backs and go up for The shot immediately in the corner and it's lightly contested There's gonna be a low percentage Especially if you're not a pure sharp that you're gonna make the shot on pro difficult So make life easy upon yourself when you take that one pump fake for whatever reason your percentage to skyrocket Especially if you get your opponent to jump so when you're getting deep range that I you also will be getting corner specialist So it kind of goes hand to hand But we'll we'll talk about corner specialist later to step backs pump fake go up to step backs pump fake go up And in between all of that I like to still cherry pick and go for corner specialist because if you end up getting hot It'll make your time a lot easier. So I don't focus Extensively only ever on deep range that I I'll do like three possessions where I do and then I'll switch it up I might go for limitless range even if I have Hall of Fame just getting some shots into the basket Especially if you've missed a few shots because there'll be times where you just get clamped down, right? And you make sure your release is on point because if your release is not on point and you're shooting those heavily contested shots You're not getting deep range that I anytime soon But there's also different methods to getting deep range that I if you find yourself missing a lot on my career You're like agent like I'm trying to do it in my career on pro difficulty I'm doing that pump fake method, but it's not working and this is likely if sharpshooter is your secondary archetype So you might be rocking like a 76 open shot three It's gonna be challenging to do the method I just explained for you there. There's a one-minute glitch, right? Thank God for the glitch hop into your practice facility, man Go to options change the timer to five minutes hop into your jump shot crater change your jump shot Or keep it the same just move it around a little bit save and exit once you saved an exit go back to options Go to go to the timer. It'll say five minutes click right, and it'll go to one minute It's a simple glitch a bunch of people upload videos on it Basically you want to be setting your my career to one minute once you do that and I did this strategy as well And it's a grind, but if you can't do it on my career It's like Mike you would you're playing all that time on my and you still so this is probably the next best way to do it Is you want to just like let the game sit be on your computer do something else for the time and then get those 3200 points from those four practices at the practice facility. That's a method It's a long-ass method, especially if you're going for Hall of Fame Imagine doing 3200 a time and you have to wait a game between all of that just to get deeper into that Hall of Fame if you're going for Gold or silver. This is a little bit more reasonable for you to do and luckily for deep range that I percentages don't matter It'll say contested deep shots made and it'll go time seven It won't say seven out of 40 So you can break a whole ton and you can still get deep range that I with the same level of effectiveness You're just potentially messing up your hotspots I wanted to make sure my percentages were high because one I didn't want to waste every like I'm trying to be efficient with my time But two I didn't want to ruin my hotspots on my career Even though I'm hearing hotspots really aren't that important this year And just one last tip for the drills when you're doing deep range that I you can call for the ball Before going up for the shot. I know for me the first bunch of times I did it I every time I was making it a catch and shoot and especially the one that's right at the top of the three point line Call for the ball first get it and then just walk up and pull up for your shot It makes life a lot easier most I don't even like doing catch and shoots like that Literally, you only have to hit four out of 10. So you literally can't mess it up. All right. So that's that that's deep range That I it's the biggest grind when it comes to these badges now is corner specialist So as I mentioned corner specialist is a pretty simple one to get Uh, this was the last one I went for because it was a simple one to get you literally if you just when I say cherry Pick I don't mean wait for the ball to go up and then sprint I mean the whole possession on defense you need to be playing offense literally like the You know Sacramento Kings tried that a few years ago. It was a desk It works in 2k for whatever reason very good shooters will break shot sometimes like I was going up against Who was it was james harden and he just continued to break So I don't like it. Why don't I just stand on offense in the corner? They'll chuck it to you Sometimes it'll be a turnover. Sometimes they'll actually call you for the turnover because you'll catch it at or bounce Do you care about your teammate grade? I'm hoping you don't because it's gonna be tough to do it otherwise And I'm saying is one of the corner specialist pretty simple because you can literally get 20,000 a game for corner specialist on 12 minute quarters If you if you have catching shoot it's gonna help you on all of these But it's gonna especially help you on corner specialist. I do the same method to get corner specialist I had to get deep range that I I'll do the two step backs and this keep mine This is on a half court set. I'll do two step backs pump fake and then I'll go up for the shot So I'll go up in deep range that I and I'll go up in corner specialist for me That's a win-win, but if I have an opportunity open in the corner I'm not gonna wait for a contest I'm gonna try and get my percentages up because for corner specialist percentages matter So if you're gonna shoot a booty 30 percent, you're not gonna get a good game Especially if you're spending on 12 minute quarters. That's an hour a game You're gonna want to make sure your percentages are wavy for corner specialist, especially like Pretty much every bill. There's gonna be a lot of bills. It's gonna have to get this bad You're gonna want to shoot over 50 percent at first my guy was shooting like 45 But as I started to get the method down like literally every game I'll shoot 60 percent By the time you finish all these badges, you will have hot spots all around the three-point line You got to put up a decent amount of shots for all of these So all around the arc for limitless range You'll get the two on the wing and the top of the three-point line Corner specialist and deep range that I will help you get the ones in the corner And literally you'll get catch and shoot by accident It takes a while to get these badges right now, especially the most of them are pretty simple It's not a difficult concept to understand. It's just repetitive. It's a grind I was up for like four straight nights playing 12 hours a piece trying to get these badges I literally don't understand how is your for the people that don't have to deal with Hall of Fame badges You don't know how lucky you have now. I'm lucky now because I have Hall of Fame badges But the grind to get to Hall of Fame is 162,000 points That makes the grind to gold feel like next to nothing I a few of the strategies that might be able to help you all pick and pops are important Closer to the start. I was doing a lot of this But I realized that my bum ass teammates wouldn't find me open. So I was like How do you do this and that's when snubby helped me out with limitless range But you're gonna want to try picking pops if this stuff isn't working for you Try sneaking up from the back court Let your team get on offense and stay in your back court And then just lurk and then swing in there and try and pull up for limitless range Yo, you know the pro AI play like Hall of Fame AI this year All right, so you're gonna try and find ways to juke them if you're before the half court line They're chilling. They're not playing defense. They're just relaxing And so the second you pass the half court line They're like like their alert goes off in their brain and they start to run after you And so you literally have like a clock set us to run down once you pass the half court line It's a thing. It's worth trying But for me, I didn't see too much success off of it Especially because I was playing with the Mabs and they were doing an awful job of space in the floor So it just made life challenging for if this helps go for difficult shots first Play some part of play some pro I'm difficult shots Is one of the badges you can get by just playing online because when you're getting deep range dead Eye, the badge doesn't even pop up. See some y'all wonder asia Why is my deep range dead eye badge not popping up? Am I not doing it right? Literally the times where you're getting deep range dead eye Difficult shots will pop up when you're going for those heavily contested shots Difficult shots will pop up that badge is incredibly important pure sharpshooters have it on silver So if your build can get difficult shots, it will make your life easier on getting those deep range dead eye And corner specialist badge and last but not least for those of you wondering which jump shot I used on micro I made a video on it. I literally used my pro amp jump shot. I had a few jump shots. No, I had a bunch of jump shots I tried I even dm people asked me what jump shot are you using because I was seeing people get big gains But then I switched to my pro amp jump shot and then I started to light things up and I never looked back I'll leave a card up above and a link in the description if you guys want to go through my jump shot video I had a park and a pro amp jump shot I was talking about amen Shout out to y'all too because I'm seeing a bunch of tweets people DMing me skyping me texting me Yo agent. I've been killing it with your pro amp jump shot. I'm like Hey, it's nothing man. No problem. Yo, if y'all enjoy make sure to subscribe drop a like do all that good stuff. Hey Show some love. I it took me too long to get these badges. I tried out every which way every specific strategy. So if this help There you go. Catch y'all later. I'm out peace
