BO Best offense in BB confirmed !!
True that, BO rulezzz!


Now seriously - it has been said before but still - the main issue with tactics is the double bonus.

When one plays inside, one gets a bonus to inside scoring and a lot more inside shots. When one plays outside, one gets a bonus to outside scoring and a lot more outside shots. This double bonus is the main reason behind balanced tactics being way inferior.

The issue will not be fixed in the game engine imo, so we need to accept it as it is. GDP was something that helped a little, now those intended changes could be another small step in the right direction. The underlying cause still stands though.

If it was to be fixed though, I believe it would be much fairer (causing a lot more tactical diversity and balance too) to have a small penalty (like 5-10%) to the chosen type of offense (inside/outside) balancing out the advantage of taking a lot more shots of the chosen type.

BBB: 2 (S37 S38); Top tier: 7 (S35 S36 S37 S38 S39 S41 S63); Cup: 9 (S25 S35 S36 S37 S38 S39 S40 S41 S61)

...this need to be carefully considered.

It's not necessarily the tacitcs themselves that are causing these win percentages. The behaviour that goes with them is too large of a variable to make any changes without getting further data and having few variables.

Unless there is something known about the GE that we don't know.

You can test and preview the new changes in action in Private League matches starting today, with implementation for all matches planned for the AllStar break.

This was announced at the season 56 start and after 3 days the GM's posted this :


"ur goal is to continually monitor the balance and performance of offensive and defensive tactics in BuzzerBeater. ]Starting now, in Season 56, we have made minor improvements to the following tactics:

So my question is, are the new tactics boosted only in private leagues or the BB's decided to implement the boosted tactics from league game 1 of the season?

It won't work. Everybody knows a faster pace kills a FCP. He might beat a team who is running patient or Princeton, but he will get killed against PTB or LI.

Yes, really. A LI with a good PG and the game will not be close.
