Break Starter - 2k23 Test Details

To test break starter we grabbed 100 offensive rebounds at each badge level and threw a pass the length of the court. We then recorded the clean catch percentage.

Break Starter - 2k23 Test Results

Without the badge roughly half the passes resulted in a stumble catch. The passes were also significantly slower because they had much more arc in the pass. Break Starter also proved to act as a counter to interceptor on these long passes.

Badge Unlock Table Details

This table shows how many attribute points you need in order to unlock a badge at the level in the header. If a badge is a Tier 1 badge you do not need any attributes in order to unlock the badge at a bronze level. If its Tier 2 or 3, you will need to meet the attribute threshold to unlock the badge. If there is more than one attribute listed, you only need to meet the threshold on one of the attributes, not multiple.
