Showdown season3 discussions - end of the seventh season and the start of the eight season

It?s still ridiculous. I?m using Pop with +8 SWC and I can?t touch the AI?s percentage for made shots with contact. It has to be above 90% in my contests. The only other shot with a higher % is the one I block that goes right to the C and he drills a fade-away 3 from well beyond the arc. That?s 100% guaranteed.

there has to be something different in our approach to those drives from AI.

after my comment earlier I payed attention to that in a few quarters and AI was like 2/6 or 2/7.

I can work with 81. I take way more threes with Westbrook than I do Klay or Kawhi and he's only a 79 rated shooter.

yeah 81 is Isiah's three so It's fine for me as well.

I thinking about a comparison vs D.Rose, Rozier or Curry for example,
I really don?t see any difference between 76 (84 Simmons) and 84 (84 Klay). For me it?s more about the location and openness than the stat. Heck, I was hitting open 3?s with Wallace during the boost and I?m pretty sure he was still well below 60.

I dont know.. for some reason since the boost and even after klay seems to be firing on all cylinders for me.. hell have the occasional off game but more often than not hell get the job done.. do u guys stick with the hot hand if the player has made 2 3s or switch it up and come back to him?
Side note: on reaching legend, did u guys have an elite in the pack.. i got a gold next gen token..
Reached it today morning
 
How many fans are u guys settling at?

I'm just trying to stay on the right side of rank 500 lol. That's the plan, at least. The further I can get under 500 the better, obviously but sometimes you can move up 50 ranks from 20K fans, so it's just crazy. If I can go to sleep tomorrow under 500 then I'll hopefully not slide too far past 700

Had the worst day fan-wise this week and gonna call it a day at 1.74 and have dropped from 376 to 382 just while typing this message lol

edit 2, yep, i'll probably wake up at 1200 lol

There are so many ppl bunched up together. A couple hours ago I had 1.53 mil fans and was at 1057. A half hour later I had 1.6 mil and was at 960. Got up to 1.63 mil and was ranked 830. So the last 3 wins had me climbing 100 positions. ??? This could go toward 2 mil
 
If I had to bet, I?d guess that this week?s SD will end at 5 am central time instead of 6 am due to the fall back hour. I guess we will see how the rest of the events adjust but so far the 2am events just started and it?s 1am lol. It being the weekend makes me doubt they actually make the changes to cause SD to end at it?s normal time. If they do fix it to end at the normal time it adds an extra hour for folks to grind, at least, which is good or bad for some lol
 
I just passed 1.8M fans and I'm number 285. I don't have any target in mind. I'll just keep playing with the available time I have until the season ends. Legend has been easier today. I haven't had to score big margins to win games and have held my own against the p2w guys. Yesterday was insane. The last hour of the boost was crazy. Since going back to my old lineup I've gained another 250k worth of fans.

I'm a bit worried about what's happening at the 1.6M range though.

I?m wondering as well? I?m currently at 725 with 1.7M. I basically took yesterday off only getting about 100k fans but I was fortunate enough to do that in 10 matches or so.

I went to bed at 500 and woke up to 840. I?m thinking I need to be below 500 before I go to bed. Since I?m in EST, it?s doubtful I?ll get up for any meaningful PT tomorrow morning Asmara I also suspect the tourney will end an hour early.

Your curry hit a full court buzzer beater against me and I lost by 1 point total.

If a player gets 3/3 I'm likely not going to try the 4th.

The legend tier pack also had a gold next gen token for me, no elite that I remember.

Meanwhile, It looks like some of our estimates for top1000 were a bit low - and the increase of the Stamina cap is certainly helping that deviation.

Ok, I just played thru my stamina and the first set of ads completing all first win live events (excluding the Malone fubar) and SD. Picked up over 200k fans. Currently sitting at 238 with 1.908 fans. I?m guessing I?ll be around 500 later today and will play thru my stamina one more time this evening hoping to get 2M fans. Surely this will be enough, no?!

I wonder EA come out those 88 elite for those spent cash players, and make up their ovr to 87 against most of us at ovr 85, if this continue, it will be more and more difficult for most people to squeeze into 1000 in SD in the future, I will suggest this SD should be remade in its mechanism

Just reached the Legend Tier 1.5M Fans, and my rank is 1,508...
I need more wins/ stamina to be able to be in top 1000.

1.8 Fans or 2M fans to reach the top 1000?
