#The Dribbling Problem!

Ball handlers can't even cover about 1/3 of the court against an aggressive defender without running out of stamina. So the only option is either [insert dribbling move] or pass the ball... Right? But what if the passing route is blocked by an opposing defender? Yes, it would result in a turn-over...

  Unless you make it so that Giant Style's "Post-Form" move is an Extensive Dribbling Mechanic that can be used by EVERY players regardless of their style. Make it so that Post-Form would provide I-frames but drastically slow down the ball handler's movement (enough to prevent ball-hogging). It will not drain stamina, but stamina cannot be regained while "Post-Form" is active so it cannot be abused by doing a dribble/post-form rinse repeat. While Post-Form is active, ball handlers can shoot or pass and it can be activated anywhere on the court unlike the current "Post-Form" move of Giant style, which can only be activated inside the two point line.

Please Make It Happen! I believe this would hugely impact the game.

Does this means that every character how has post form?

This concept has many flaws right now. But I'ma make some changes when I see it.

BTW, For Context: I put the "slow movement" (to prevent ball-hogging) in case they implement a shot-clock rule in this game.

#

Every player should be able to enter a post-form and should not be exclusive to the Giant Style.

It be cool if more mechanic come to the game like u can't phase through player and thing like screen is possible and maybe dribbling variation mechanic and reduce iframe game take more skill maybe stamina system so overpower move take large amount of stamina while simpler abilities take only minor amount of it

This just makes Giant's Post-Form useless, because Giant's Post-Form is meant to set up for an unstoppable dunk, and you can do this ANYWHERE. And what that means is: Post-Form 3 points, yes, Giant can do that if you set it up but this is everywhere without the need for a cooldown.

And in my opinion, that seems more like a skill problem than actual game issues. You're not SUPPOSED to walk half way across the court alone with the built-in dribbles ALONE, they're there to make sure the handler is able to keep the ball for a few more seconds to get closer to the hoop, If you're out of options, what's your last resort? Its your dribbling move. Dribble Skills are MEANT to move you to that side of the court or make a clear path for you to the hoop.

Okay, lets say you don't have a dribbling move, like Clutch, or its on cooldown, and you're out of options and your teammates are marked, what do you do?... Pump-Fake. It will either; let you score, or give you enough time to pass to your teammates.

To be honest, this just seems like a Pump-Fake with extra steps, I can see the vision but it overshadows one Mythic Skill and renders Pump-Fake useless, because why use Pump-Fake if you can just use Post-Form which does the same but you can actually move.

Oh man, looking back at this after 2 days... The "post-form" suggestion of mine was GARBAGE!!!! 😭
