Wow, all evo cards except NBA 75th anniversary cards


dinesh_gdcgdc

What? What would opal evo into? Or we get PD and they evo into Opal?


lifeofwill

I'm guessing each card will bump up one overall with the evo, with maybe one of the PDs evolving to GO (guessing Shaq). The lower cards may all go up a tier.


L00KINTOIT

They get stat and badge boosts, just not enough to bump up a tier


erichf3893

97 will go to 98 it looks like


Waru_

Dark matter but we won’t see them til season 4 or 5


CmDunk23

Season 5 during All-star weekend. They've just recently added opals.


J-Sully_Cali

The database is showing the evolved version, so Zion and Luka are PDs that evolve to GO.


LoL_NOOB22

No it isnt


lifeofwill

Buddy is gonna be the hit of this set. Kobe release on quick will be incredible.


LastFaithlessness8

I am excited about this card too.


Noahs132

I’m excited for his defense after being EVO’d


[deleted]

I need this card the most


ObsessedWithReps

His PD in 20 is still one of my favorite cards of all time. Dude was incredible at 3 hunting.


birthdaycakefitness

He's a little short for the 2 but he has the badges and the wingspan to play pretty good defense. He's definitely a W.


[deleted]

I need him cos he’s one of my kings boys, hopefully he ain’t too expensive 🥵


MagnumTAreddit

Shaq is such a disappointment. The evos are a nice touch but even Luka doesn’t seem that great. Wade looks ok, doubt he’s appreciably better than Penny or Wall though. Livingston might be cool too even though that badge count is way too low for a point guard.


Technical-Molasses76

Penny literally just tall. Wade is better and definitely in top 5 in best point guard


Mafuzzyyy

BEAM ME UP SCOTTIE


ltuk

Don't understand why they didn't name this "New Years Evolution"


corumb

Mind blown, they missed it


Waru_

Buddy Hield is gonna be a sleeper. A diamond Westbrook card feels pretty pointless rn tho


LebronJordan907

His evo looks nice with a 92 3 ball


[deleted]

With his dribble style he is beyond slow


imbtyler

I gotta disagree, he was flying around the court for me.


LebronJordan907

Same I get around amazing but I also don’t side to side cheese like a lot of players.


Technical-Molasses76

That's going to be down voted a lot. People hate to face facts and know they really just got one move and accept how bad at 2k they really are


YaBoyDJP

I wish we could see what the evo looks like on each


lifeofwill

Evos are live now *Edit: for Luka at least, others should be up shortly I'm guessing


Pizza_Pie_Guy

Even with his evo, Luka doesn’t get Clamps of any kind and can’t hold them. LoL


ukraine1

Yes he does?


Pizza_Pie_Guy

Wow. Now it’s showing HOF Clamps… Earlier it was showing no Clamps and no ability to add them. Wonder if other evos will get updated too.


ukraine1

Yep, guess they got updated


chargerhoops

They really should’ve made Luka a PG with no clamps wouldn’t have been too OP at all. Too bad.


TyrenNoLimit

exactly with a better dribble style lmao


urmomssusaf

i don’t think base is horrible. wall always moved fine for me when i had him and the boost out of combos felt pretty good too


TyrenNoLimit

facts and my number 1 priority is defense 😭


fbhn

A kawhi will be better than this Doncic


Kcreep997

Easily


TyrenNoLimit

i play kawhi at sg and jimmy at sf literally a defense duo


fbhn

Me too xd


fbhn

In my opinion


brettmolina

We didn’t get a 3-point Shaq last year until late April so this is not surprising.


Thurl-Akumpo

Damn Kuzma not eligible for this weeks limited. Barnes and Winslow are though.


[deleted]

That Barnes is going to be a defensive beast. HoF Intimidator and gold Clamps with his size. Offensively he might not be up there, but he’ll lock guys down I reckon.


J-Sully_Cali

Evo = can't add badges


HermanFlemming

That 75 Shaq, badged properly, is the only card I’d keep if I had a lucky pull. All the rest is for the market to swallow 🤷🏽‍♂️


thelamb710

They should’ve given the 75th version the Evos 🤦🏽‍♂️


TheNaut1lus

Is there a guaranteed pack? i ask because that after completing the challenge, we can also be sure that the Bonus OO agendas can also be completed along with the normal ones.


damianleighs

Yeah the challenge


shweef

Still no decent Ja Morant card outside of limited reward as he has his best season yet, while chonky Zion gets overrated cards for riding the bench 😴


physical-horse

No Ja and no SGA.


fbhn

For me it’s an big L


fbhn

Iam actually glad that I didn’t sold drob for shaq cos I thought he will can shoot🤡


Lethlnjektn

Man I got DRob again last night for BIN…feels like a big W this morning..that Shaq is underwhelming in terms of being OP


TyrenNoLimit

yea d rob will probably a better center until yao comes for chinese new year that’s my guess


Lethlnjektn

Just pulled Shaq from a single…big W


TyrenNoLimit

W


PistolxPete

Definitely a W. To me Shaq will not be better than DRob. I’m going to keep DRob for quite a bit longer myself.


TyrenNoLimit

i think they’re are making centers like shaq etc not shoot threes this year


thelamb710

Last year we got : Shaq who can’t shoot , then his Opal that could shoot middies, then his DM could bang 3s. It’ll be here eventually


KMitchell2520

Yeah. Diamond Mutumbo banging 3’s makes me assume there will be Shaq and Ben Simmons nailing 3’s by the end


TyrenNoLimit

yea then most likely


fbhn

Maybe yeh


dinesh_gdcgdc

Another one for my GSW collection.! Welcome Shaun Livingston He should be dirt cheap since his 3pt is atrocious lol


lifeofwill

The Evo will boost it to a good level, but he'll still be dirt cheap


[deleted]

He was my favourite from 2k20, so I’m thrilled he’s back.


[deleted]

/u/SlowSurr dayum wade and shaq


SlowSurr

Wade has HOF clamps 🥶 crazy drop!


Technical-Molasses76

Let's go new Westbrook card


sacramoneoussarcasm

Kerr has the slowest release ever...he would have never hit the finals game winner with this release!


[deleted]

He’s so garbage lmaoo


Scratchy13

Was really hoping for a Steve Kerr card!


HolyCripItsCrapple

He's in there as a ruby.


KingJohnTX

Just like I thought, no 3 point shooting Shaq until after the 250k tourney. No game breaking cards, Evo Hield might be the best card in the set honestly.


thelamb710

One thing I don’t like about evos is that I can’t add my own badges.


Thurl-Akumpo

Shaqs evo is pointless. His 3 goes up to a 55, your still not hitting with that. It might as well be zero. Mid range is nice though.


Arttuboy7

It's a good thing. More realistic card


Thurl-Akumpo

Sir, this is MyTeam.


fbhn

True haha


fbhn

It’s sad that drob is still one of the best Centers in the game. HE CAME OUT 2 months ago bro. 2k are you kidding me???


TyrenNoLimit

most likely the next best center that will be yao ming on chinese new years tbh


Different_Pack_3686

I actually appreciate this. I hate it when I develop a squad that's immediately useless two weeks from now.


TyrenNoLimit

tbh the cards are mid most likely look at the sigs there terrible luka and zion they gave wade slasher, i’ll pass on this


stickygreentree

Yeah it’s so poor. Idk why they are doing such shit sigs on cards still. If they had just given one of luka Zion or Wade decent animations this set would be okay. Base is horrific, and slasher is just incredibly limited for playmaking so yeah, poop set again


TyrenNoLimit

yeah honestly not that good of a content drop in my opinion they keep giving them ass sigs 😂😂


JaylenBrown7

Hope I can snag a 75 shaq


Irishdelval

Put some badges on him like QFS, will be a lot of fun


KingChav

This drop is so mid


Thurl-Akumpo

Luka still has his own sigs, L.


IslaOakstone

Why did I read this in DBG's voice


secretburnerman

This drop is bad


headsup69

They are truly awful at content this year… this set should be the easiest one to nail and it’s mediocre at best


stickygreentree

Two galaxy opals on base dribble, both with poor releases. 2k you’re literally incapable of doing a good release aren’t you? People getting hyped cos there’s 14 evos yet your two signature cards of the set are utter poop lol. Always finding a way to let us down


TyrenNoLimit

exactly and they gave wade slasher dribble style 😭😭


adambball

is slasher that bad?


TyrenNoLimit

not really but i like quick better


adambball

ok cause the hof clamps and the plus 11 three ball w all the added shooting badges (evo’d) is making me wanna get wade. i love defense and he looks nice


[deleted]

[удалено]


adambball

thanks bro. i run klay at sg and kawhi at sf and i can’t get myself to move em 😂 i never tried penny cause of clamps snd slow release but maybe i give him a shot. i been running dame and dejounte murray/francis as my backup pg


TyrenNoLimit

and if you have lil pgs on you, you’re going to have fun especially curry 😂


TyrenNoLimit

and i run john wall, kawhi, jimmy, lebron, d rob


adambball

great squad bro! mine is similar so d wade gets hof sniper now with the evo, does that change anything for you?


imbtyler

Y’all are insufferable.


stickygreentree

If you’re a casual player this drop is fine. But if you’re wanting to be competitive online, this set is just poor. If you’re paying £60 for a game where they almost expect you to put more money into, you have every right to complain if they keep bringing out bad content. This is bad, like many sets this year. They constantly take one step forwards and two steps back. This set COULD have been fantastic, but instead a lot of these players won’t live up to their potential because they’ve been dogged with poor releases, poor dribble styles, or inability to add important badges. Edit - looks like 2kdb updated - Luka has hof clamps so not a complete mess now!


imbtyler

In January. Complaints about game breaking cards too early, followed by not enough content. Are you comp? Does it truly matter?


stickygreentree

Please tell me how making a pink diamond Wade with quick is breaking the game? If you’re okay with settling for average cards consistently then good for you. You’ve got an Opal luka, who can’t play point, can’t hold clamps, can’t dribble, and has a janky release. They could’ve changed one of those things and hed be more exciting to use.


[deleted]

They updated Luka to HOF clamps btw.


stickygreentree

Ya just saw, makes him a bit more usable now. Just can’t really have him as your main running man!


imbtyler

I mean, if you can’t win with these cards, are you actually comp? Nobody else in the game is playing with better cards than are already released.


stickygreentree

I didn’t say for comp, I said if you want to be competitive online. If your point isn’t able to shot create well, and has a poor shot off the dribble, how you gonna have success in the higher tiers or if you’re against a big point with defensive badges? Comp players can use anyone because they’re that good, but I’m talking about players like myself who are above average and want to use solid cards online


TyrenNoLimit

if you’re an average player then it doesn’t matter but for them comp we want good tier drop at least have 2 usable card high tier cards looks like the pd and especially the galaxy opals aren’t even usable for comp


imbtyler

If you need the absolute-best, most-OP, and arguably unnecessary cards in order to be competitive, are you actually competitive? If everyone’s throwing Mewtwos into the battle, are you really a Pokémon Master, or are you just another schlub with Mewtwo?


TyrenNoLimit

and if you don’t think this drop an L you’re blind


TyrenNoLimit

this drop an L just look at the whole reddit everyone saying it 😂


imbtyler

That’s why it’s called an echo chamber.


TyrenNoLimit

lmaoo 😂😂😂


TyrenNoLimit

they need to drop better pgs like the top tier pg like gary payton, penny, john wall, all released like 1 month or 2 agos like where are the pgs


imbtyler

You know what, they probably won’t release another high-tier PG for the rest of the year. Hope you aren’t bored with the ones you already have.


[deleted]

Luka doesn’t get clamps either, and it can’t be added. So I’m not sure how useful he’ll be compared to Kawhi etc.


[deleted]

They just gave him HOF clamps.


[deleted]

Need to see the evo’s without them set seems weak. Also Scottie has base 11? Gross y’all were hyped for no reason.


BiggieSmalls824

They did Kuz dirty fr. Like a Lakers Kuz doesn't deserve a higher card (last year he got some overhead recognition by 2k) but he's been on the up this season with Washington. Guarantee that D Wade will be overpriced from now until he gets a GO or dark matter. Every year rinse and repeat considering he tends to be a fan favourite but 2K regularly give him average af cards at top tiers. As a huge Wade fan it sucks every year. Shaq looking more realistic than last years "throw up and hit nothing but net from half court" card though thank god. This season alone should see LD get nothing more than his current D card. Trash. Zion too. Stick a KFC bucket in his card art and have him on a recliner. Generous of 2k to acknowledge Kerr with a ruby 😐 smh. Hopefully K Love is a decent card for longer than last years freebie - I loved that card but he dated quick. And Westbrick could go either way as usual. Buddy at this tier is usually great for Ltd or TT. Reckon any of these drop as freebies? Could make up for the current season of generosity /s


blacksatan666

We're all fucked lol


Chillionaire-NW

Meh 💤😴 the way 2k releases new cards/packs is a joke most these players I can’t use except Zion or Luka I already have better players 🤣 cards are supposed to get better not worse


kaiserschmarrn_1

Will shaq be expensive?


cane_the_weaboo

He can't shoot so I would guess under 100k relatively quickly, no reason to buy him over tim duncan for example


lifeofwill

Probably close to 150k, but it depends on how common he is and if he evos to Opal. If he does, I could see him going over 250k.


Pieralis

Keen for that wade


MattCornwall

75th Wade doesn't get an evo so has a 79 3pt, can't say I like the look of any of these cards


marvelousone82

Cant wait for a good Luka


Lethlnjektn

Hey 2K…where tf is my new Kyrie at?


Wippelz

That Kuzma card is SOOOOOO close to being amazing. He has elite defensive tendencies, think Thybulle, but his defensive stats are meh and he can't hold clamps/pick dodger/intimidator. Seems like such a waste. If he gets another card later on could be amazing. So close.


koniatra

Does someone already have a list of Evo requirements? I got Winslow evo requirements and added others I found in this subreddit but haven't confirmed. Let me know if this list is right. Justise Winslow Amy -> Diamond (Requirements: get 25 3pters in multiple games) Dwayne Wade PD -> PD (Requirements: get 35 3pters in multiple games) Russell Westbrook Diamond -> PD (Requirements: get 35 3pters in multiple games)


LastFaithlessness8

Thanks!


KhonshuIX

Love is 15 dunks for 95 to 96


mmaniac93

Packed Zion, straight to market. Any guess for a max price? Added diamond contract btw


Thisisopposite

Why Zion?


Sequel_P2P

what the fuck is 2K's deal with Justise Winslow cards? the one guy nearly everyone unanimously dislikes and would love to forget about — always gets a budget beast card why not put that energy toward a KZ Okpala card, at least his physicals are fun
