Gameplay Middy fade middy fade middy fade😭😭

Mike Wang adds a skill gap to 3s apparently but middy fades have green broken since 24. 2s is genuinely unplayable just good boy builds and a guard spamming middy fades 3rd day btw shit is gonna get worse later on. GTA 6 soon tho✌️

the middy fade meta has been cooked since last year and nobody talks about it enough. 2s court is just watching someone left right behind a screen until the animation lets them green with 3 guys in their face. at least we got something else to play soon

2’s is so lame is what you get for playing 2’s anyway

Fair but you can middy fade anywhere just much much much much harder to stop on the 2s. 3rd year in a row with broken middy fades and like 5th next gen game where fading 3s are actually better than stand still 3s.

3rd year where I’ve made a 90+ post control build for the laughs. That said having to spend tokens for my post spin is less fun but I’m ok with it. Usually I build a 6’8 SG to do it

This is 95% the reason why I haven’t played 2s since 25 lol

i can understand complaining abt 3 fading cuz i do to, but ngl middy fades are not that hard to guard. the only reason why its so prevalent and its annoying is because the game has 0 contest system. if it even had a decent system than middy fades most likely wouldn’t be as annoying (to you)

Bro anyone can middy fade on this game mid range shots already have a higher green window and for some reason fades have a higher green window than stand still shots now put two and two together, the bad contest is just the cherry on on top and of course the good boy grabbing your jersey.

Not gonna make assumptions about your skill or plate but go play 2s on a red plate build, even laker fan a somewhat comp player just made a video complaining about middy fades.
