Realest Top 25 Players Seasons 1-5 Updated!

These 12 players are the ones who I feel have had the best VFL career so far with these 5 seasons of Madden 22. Players ranked 8-10 was a close race for me and came down to career win % , Spots 6 and 7 came down to who has a SB and who doesn’t , Guys ranked 1-3 was tough and really took some time for me to decide where I thought they should be ranked.

#12 – ( Dirty Falcons ) Dirty used to be known as a top 3 QB within this league in my eyes , and then everyone found out what man coverage was. Season 1-3 he was a machine and putting up eye popping numbers at QB. Season 2 he was a superbowl champ with the Browns and continued season 3 putting up MVP type numbers with Tannehill. Then the playoffs hit and he ran into Kuhrow and seemed a little lost in the sauce. Every since the season 3 playoffs this guy just hasn’t been the same and hasn’t adjusted very well.

#11 – ( EboK aka Post Kobe ) Ebok is one of the most talented players in this league. While he may catch backlash for being a troll that doesn’t take away from his Madden skills. Ebok like Breesus was introduced to the league by Kuhrow and instantly made a impact often and early. Ebok spent his first 2 seasons playing Running back where he exceeded expectations with James Connor and Ravens shitty group of backs. This season he has made the switch to QB and is putting up great numbers , making a switch like that and succeeding instantly is huge in my book. Most impressive thing that is eye popping though is the EboK record in his first 3 seasons , with a record of (25-6) that has to be one of the better records in a 3 season span. I truly believe if EboK had a another season under his belt this Madden he would have cracked my top 7 or 8.

#10 – ( Route Tech Tmo ) Tmo in my opinion is the most underrated player in the league. He is never heavily talked about when it comes to the leagues best. Lets not forget in seasons 1 and 2 his team made back to back superbowl trips as a owner. Tmo is one of the best when it comes to putting together a roster that can compete with the leagues best. After Tmo stepped away from ownership he joined staff to attempt to help better the league. While Tmo numbers might not be eye popping his impact on the field is felt. If I had to name the top 5 DCs in the VFL Tmo would easily be on that short list. Also in season 1 Tmo help lead the Chiefs to the VFL first SB this madden as a QB. Tmo is good at both LB and DL on the defensive side of the ball and has shown he can win at QB while also being one of the leagues better WRs. Ill be the first to admit I dont take advice from many people on Madden but Tmo showed me a defense and I was like damn this guy is smart.

#9 – ( Ty Bomaye ) Has shown the most growth at QB in my opinion. In season 2 if you asked me who Ty is I would have said ” oh some shitter “. If you asked me season 3 who was Ty I would say I really good game manager. If you asked me Seasons 4 and 5 who Ty is I would tell you he is for sure a top 5 QB in the VFL. Ty really started taking off when he got to play with Tmo and Willy in season 3 where I feel they helped start his growth as a QB. They kept the game simple for him offensively and played defense and it worked. Ty then got on a teammate with his buddy Orlando and they have been a top line ever sense. Ty has a very boring scheme because he takes the clock with him. Ty is also tough to get a read on because he doesn’t really have set plays he really just takes what the defense gives him which makes him tough to beat.

#8 – ( Child Please ) Child is one of the better players within the league and I feel like half the league doesn’t even know it. Child monster on the DL with the bull rush. He might very well be the best at the Bull Rush in the league. I think if Child really committed to the league like other players and bout a wire to improve his connection he would be even higher on my list. While Child is great in the regular season this guy can’t find a playoff win LITERALLY. Child is also a very underrated at running back , I previously made fun of Child for switching to QB and now he has won his first superbowl at QB. Up until this playoff run I believe Child was winless in playoff games. One playoff run has changed the way I view his VFL career. Also he switched from DL where is he one of the best to play linebacker to help the team , gotta love a guy who is willing to committed to doing anything that involves winning!

#7 – ( Kuhrow ) Kuhrow might be the most dominant player of this Madden within the VFL. If I had to compare him to a athlete this Madden it should be Shaq ( with no rings ). While Kuhrow has been the Shaq of the VFL where is his Kobe ( R.I.P ). I feel like Kuhrow has somewhat put himself in a bad spot playing with QBs like game green and ace boogs when he could have easily been on better teams. Some will tell you that Kuhrow plays with worse players to have a built in excuse for when he loses. While I give him credit to trying to be the driving force sometimes you gotta realize the grass is greener on the other side. Kuhrow has easily been the best DL in the VFL seasons 1-5 and its not even close in my opinion. Kuhrow was a Championship away from being in my top 5.

#6 – Gabe is in my top 3 for most TALENTED players in this league. He very versatile on both sides of the ball. On offense I would say he the 2nd most versatile offensive player in the league and I would say he the most versatile defensive player in the league as far as being able to play any role the team needs. Gabe in my eyes has been a top 2 at DL since season 3 , but he is also very capable of being elite at LB and DB as well. When watching Gabe play I think the most impressive thing about his game is his route running and thats at RB or WR. He always knows how to find the hole (pause) in the zone. Not only is he a great route runner but I would have to deem him the best at being able to high point the ball and come down with it as a WR.

#5 – Realest ) Im not going to sit here and talk about myself , Biased in me I would rank myself number 1 because I 100% feel im the best player in the league. Just dont feel like its right for me to talk about myself and my accolades within this league. I also think ranking myself ahead of any of the next 4 players would be disrespectful considering Ive never played the toughest position in this league which is QB and never won a league MVP

#4 – ( North ) North has been one of the most consistent players in the league as far as stats and wins. North has never had a season with less then 10 wins. Winning 10 out of 12 games every season is very consistent. While North is known as a winning he is also known for stuffing the stat sheet. North is dominant at both RB and DL. North has had 3 seasons with 750+ rushing yards , while also having 3 seasons of 400+ receiving yards at running back. On the defensive side of the ball North had never had a under 40 TFL and only one season under 20 sacks. North has shown he can carry a line leading while playing with Dfeet and also can be a great sidekick on a line to a great QB like IR Brady. North adding a MVP & another SB boosted him above me.

#3 – ( Beaste ) Beaste has had the best VFL career this Madden in my opinion. Season 1 Beaste went undefeated in the regular season and where he ended up losing game 3 to the SB champion Chiefs. Season 2 Beaste captured his first VFL championship while being the owner of the Cleveland Browns. Season 3 Beaste repeated with a championship with a team who went 12-0 on a crazy playoff run. Here we are season 5 and Beaste team is back in the mix again as probably the favorite heading into the playoffs. Wherever Beaste is winning is happening and he has to get credit for that. Beaste in my eyes lost his number 1 spot because he linked up with Champ this season. In the past he has had Abyss or Dirty to depend on to help win the Superbowl. Champ is a known choker when it comes to playoffs. Its alot different when all the pressure is on you to win every game in the series because your line 2 doesn’t get the job done. Beaste falls from 1 to 3 because these next 2 guys have better career stats and just won a superbowl with better win percentages career wise.

#2 – Brady has been consistently one of the best QB this league has had. Season 2 was horrible for Brady dealing with a terrible situation that led to him being blacklisted for the last couple weeks of the season. But he came back season 3 motivated going 10-1 but ended up losing in the playoffs in a classic to Beaste which made his team check out for the remainder of the series. Season 4 Brady had another great season going 10-0 in the regular season and 2-0 in the playoffs but the other lines couldn’t pull off a win to force a game 7. Brady has been on the short end of the stick this Madden and I did him no justice by stepping down from ownership. However Brady was able to lead the Bengals to the superbowl and capture his first VFL superbowl this madden. This was huge for Brady I know deep down how much he wanted to win. I feel at this point in time he is currently the best QB the VFL has to offer. If I had to pick 1 QB in the VFL to win me a game 7 it would be Brady just like real life. But I can’t rank him number 1.

#1 – Abyss has had a absolute stunning 5 seasons at QB. He is the only player who has won multiple MVPs this madden and one of them with Sam Darnold. Abyss is known for being very safe with the ball with a clock control offense and solid defense. Abyss I would also have to stay was the best owner seasons 1-3 as far as putting together a team , making sure there were no forfeits etc. He is one of those QBs who seeks advice from his teammates when something is going wrong. I can speak from experience seeing as Ive played with him 95% of this madden. He makes the game easy for someone like myself knowing im going to get consistent play out of a QB. Abyss finished off his Madden 22 seasons with 2 MVPs , 1 QBOTY , 1 LBOTY , 2 Superbowl Rings , Owner of a team who swept the whole playoffs going 12-0 and also a personal 10-2 playoff record. It was so close between Brady and Abyss for the number 1 spot but I went with the guy with 2 MVPs and 1 more superbowl then Brady.

Realest Top 25 List After Season 5 Updated ( 25 -13 )

My one exception for making the list is you had to complete 3 of the 5 seasons! One player who would for sure be in my top 10 to 15 will not be on the list because he joined the league in the middle of season 3 and that is Ponchy! Also so this is known this is a list based off your play season 1-5.

#25 – ( Never Practices ) This is a player who didnt make my list the first time around. This season he accomplished some things that made me feel he couldn’t be left off this list. Season 3 Rivals jumped on the scene with the Cowboys and made noise instantly finishing top 3 in interceptions at DB. Season 4 he had another good season with the Bucs and was on a line that went 10-0. Season 5 Rivals brought home the LB of the year award while only playing 8 regular season games. He found his way on the Bengals and was a big help on Abyss line come playoff time and made a difference for them. He has the ability to play both RB/WR and LB/DB. Rumor has it he says hes playing DL next Madden to continue to prove he has a wide skill set.

#24 – ( GaabageAssassin ) Gaabage is top 5 at DL in this league , when he is not eating peanut butter and pickle sandwiches he is probably sacking your QB or hitting your running back in the backfield. Gaabage was so good at DL in season 3 he was awarded with Defensive player of the year. However I think he lacks alot on the offensive side on the ball. By far the best teammate ive had this madden , low ego , never complains just shows up and wrecks the game on the defensive side of the ball. He didnt play this season so I had to move him from 17 to 23.

#23 – ( OrlandoStayWoke ) Orlando is also very underrated , Season 2 Orlando was the 1st pick in the draft to play QB , I actually think Orlando is a pretty good QB just doesn’t take the time to lab to be a great one , Orlando started at WR for Abyss Season 1 and I thought he was average at best , however these last couple of seasons he has made huge improvement and became very solid , He also became good enough to become a DC in the league which I never thought he could do. Orlando is a superbowl champ season 4 with the Packers and him and Ty as a duo is one of the better ones within the league. Orlando was very inactive this season only playing 7 games due to work schedule. Had to move him from 16 to 23.

#22 – ( Warpath ) Warpath is a player who struggled early on in his VFL career. Started in season 2 where it was pretty much moved between the 2 worse teams Bucs and Chiefs. Season 3 he got his first good chance on the Cowboys and he did well for himself. The thing I like about Warpath be brought a different scheme. Most people use the same playbooks on offense and he used a different one. After a loss to him towards the end of the season I had to go rewatch my broadcast to understand what the hell he is was doing. But that comes with his biggest weakness , he only runs about 2 to 3 plays and if you catch on to them its VERY easy to stop. However his improvement from season 2 to seasons 3-5 are clear. Record in Season 2 was (2-8) and his record in seasons 3-5 is (22-12) which is a huge improvement. However I have to admit I had him ranked too high in my first list. His playoff performances are always underwhelming and leave you stunned how a guy can play so good but shrink when it matters most. I think in the last 3 seasons he was he for sure lost 4 playoff games that I can remember of the 6 he played in and that just isn’t gonna get it done for a QB who is valued at round 1 talent.

#21 – ( Breesus ) Breesus took the league by storm season 3 as a rookie QB , winning rookie of the year and make a superbowl in his first season in the league. He followed up his impressive rookie season with a better 2nd season on the Cardinals almost passing for over 3,000 and 396 rushing yards. Not only was he good on the offensive side of the ball he was good on the defensive side of the ball having 14 and 16 picks in those 2 seasons. Im very confused on how Breesus had to 2 great seasons worth of stats but moved off QB to play WR? Doesn’t make sense to me at all but… He moved from 15 to 21.

#20 – ( Outaker ) Outaker is obviously a good player and his career numbers this madden are great. Hes won of the better WR in the league and in 5 season I would have to say has to be a top 3 at DL. Even with the great numbers I sometimes feel lost on how to judge Outaker. Sometimes hes fully here and engaged and then sometimes hes just not. Outaker is one of the few who actually tracked his season one stats and they were good , In season 1 and 2 he put great numbers , Season he had a drop off where he only had 6 total sacks in the season , that is unacceptable for him in my eyes. Season 4 he picked it back up with another great season but here in season 5 he only has 3 games worth of stats? Outaker seems like one of those players who is very talented but will take a play off or in his case the whole season off lol.

#19 – ( Hutch ) Hutch has played in all 5 seasons of the VFL and has done very well at QB/LB , he has played with the same WR/DB all 5 seasons but no matter who the RB/DL is they do well in his offensive system and are a huge focal point of the offense. I played one game in season 1 on that line at RB/DL and felt if I played with them I would easily have a shot at 1,000 rushing yards and 500 receiving yards in a season because how much the RB is involved. Hutch is #24 on my list!

#18 – ( Clutch King ) Clutch is easilyyyyy one of the most underrated players in the league , if I had one word to describe Clutch it would be ( Consistent ). Clutch has played with Beaste almost every season but season 4. Clutch is a 2x superbowl champ with both the Browns and Chiefs. Clutch is also a very versatile player playing both RB/WR and was successful at both. Somehow clutch is always drafted in the mid-later rounds of the draft and that shouldn’t happen. Clutch is a no brainer on this list.

#17 – ( Dfeetu44 ) Dfeet balled tf out this season plain and simple. Dfeet is now a 2x superbowl champion and has climbed the ranks in my list. Dfeet has always been a respectable game manager style of QB who looks to run the ball and play good defense. I think the thing that boost him was the fact he moved off QB and decided to play WR which I think was best for him and the Bengals team this past season. Dfeet moved off QB and joined Brady and North on a line which was a good mix. Dfeet won DB of the year this season and had the most ints in a single season this madden with 29! Not only did he have a good regular season , he also had the game winning interception returned for a touchdown in game 5 of the superbowl to help the Bengals secure a championship. Dfeet missed my list completely the first time and after this season and playoff run it was almost impossible to leave him off the list this time around!

#16 – ( Areis ) Areis is good WR/DB who thrive best in cover 3 defense I actually dont think Areis knows anything outside of cover 3 on defense. However him and Hutch have been a solid duo in this league since season 1 started. My only issue with Areis is he is known for not wanting to play the best competition in the regular season. Im not a fan of it myself but Areis claims its a strategy so who am I to knock someone gameplan. Outside of that he is one of the better players within the league and is known to win you at least 8 to 10 games a season.

#15 – ( Justt Smoove ) Smoove is in my top 4 as far as running back goes , Easily THE top pure runner the league has to offer. I would say hes an above average route runner at running back but certainly not the best. Smoove as a DB sometimes worries me a little. Sometimes in cover 3 he is on the middle third and in cover 2 ive seen him on the flat or on the deep zone , hell in man ive seen him on the outside corner. That could easily wreck someone play or it could result in a big touchdown. However he gets the job done.

#14 – ( Champ ) Now that this madden is done 14 is where I have champ ranked. Honestly he had great seasons but at the end of the day hes just a better Warpath. Champ shits sheets when it matters most , 3-6 in the playoffs is unacceptable for a guy who has been up for MVP and even been runner up a few times for the award. Not even trying to bash Champ just feel like while his regular seasons have been great his playoffs have been a huge let down.

#13 – ( NATECVSHMNEY ) Nate in his first couple of seasons played QB and he was below average. His best seasons were seasons 3-5 when he made the switch to RB. In season 3 and 4 Nate was very much the driving force of the offense on his line both seasons. When he is calling defense he is known for his very off meta play calling. You can never get a read on what he is doing , one play he could call cover 3 the next play you might see a all out blitz. This season Nate has made the transition to DL where he brought home the DL of the year award. Since moving to RB Nate has become one of the better RBs in the league except when he tries to do my spin move and looks like a bot , however lets not forget he is now a 2x SB Champ.

eboK’s 2K Team Rankings

Making this team list to help owners decide what team to pick. Was gonna add graphics to this List but this shit is ass 🙁

1.BUCKS

Giannis is THANOS with snipers & locks all around him. Giannis is arguably the best player in 2K history…combine that with amazing role players & Bucks are unstoppable. You can play 5 out with Giannis running the show, run pick & roll/pops with Giannis or just let him dead zone. Either way, you lose.

BEST LINEUP
Jrue Holiday
Grayson Allen/Pat Connaughton
Khris Middleton
Bobby Portis JR.
Giannis
Antetokounmpo

2. LAKERS

This team is very strong since Lebron has HOF Dimer & Bullet. HOF dimer allows AD & Dwight to green every three. With that being said you put AD at the 4 & Dwight at the 5 & you’ll lock up the paint + horse everyone. Westbrook still has all his badges & greens every shot + Melo is a SNIPER. Lakers have ELITE defense & offense…theres no weak points at all. Lakers are one of the few teams that can go toe to toe with the Bucks. AD on Giannis 🙂

BEST LINEUP
Russell Westbrook
Carmelo Anthony
Lebron James
Anthony Davis
Dwight Howard

3. NETS

Nets are a well rounded team with 3 ELITE ball handlers in Ben Simmons, KD & Kyrie. the tricky thing to this team is wether you wanna use Ben or Drummond at the 5 or try to play both at the same time. Ben is good at center but he can easily get horsed. Drummond on the other hand might be a top 5 center on the game. all though this team is stacked with talent you just cant draft anyone to play with this team. Someone like Kuhrow on Ben Simmons is a real sheet shitter. To use this team to its full potential you need 4 top tier players in the league on 1 line.

BEST LINEUP
Ben Simmons
Kyrie Irving
Joe Harris
Kevin Durant
Andre Drummond

NEXT BEST
Kyrie Irving
Seth Curry
Joe Harris
Kevin Durant
Andre Drummond/Ben Simmons

4. 76ers

76ers have the 3 things you want on its 2k. An ELITE ball handler, a DOMINANT lock & a big. Thankfully for the 6ers Embiid is the best center on the game, Harden is top 5 ball handlers, & thybulle is up there for one of the best locks. Then you have Tobias who will green every shot along side either Danny Green or Tyrese Maxey at the 2. 76ers are loaded & you would have to try very hard to lose with them. I could see someone messing around with a lineup of DeAndre Jordan at the 5 & Embiid at the 4…could be GLITCHY.

BEST LINEUP
James Harden
Danny Green
Matisse Thybulle
Tobias Harris
Joel Embiid

5. CLIPPERS

Clippers are very good & strong team but they can be difficult to play with. I say this because Zubac is a decent center but he has 26 speed turning him into the Croatian Zombie. So with that in mind you NEED a dominant Kawhi & Paul George. kawhi is a MEGA LOCK & will clamp anyone he guards. Paul George has good handles, can green, poster & play ELITE defense. So you would have to find the right balance of VBA players to make this team work. With the best lineup I posted you would have Paul George guard rim. He has all the defensive badges you need at center & he’s big enough to where he can do it. 🙂

BEST Lineup
Norman Powell
Paul George
Kawhi Leonard
Nicolas Batum/Marmus Morris SR.
Robert Covington

NEXT BEST THING
Norman Powell/Luke Kennard
Paul George
Kawhi Leonard
Robert Covington
Ivica Zubac

6. GRIZZLIES

Grizzlies & Clippers are interchangeable in my eyes. Whatever team suits your VBA playset is the one you should go with. Grizzlies have everything you need with an ELITE ball handler in Ja, 2 locks in JJJ & Brooks followed by an ELITE horse Steven Adams. bane is also a complete sniper…this team is so souped & loaded. JJJ can guard ball & the rim dude is insane.

BEST LINEUP
Ja Morant
Desmond Bane
Dillon Brooks
Jaren Jackson JR.
Steven Adams

7. WARRIORS

Warriors are a hard team to play with but they are very good in the right hands. You need someone who can 3 hunt effectively with Curry while also having great role player users. Looney is ASS & Wiseman isn’t much better. Klay & Wiggins r souped but Draymond is VERY hard to constantly green with. So if you cant meet all the requirements to make this team good then you should stay away from the Warriors.

BEST LINEUP
Steph Curry
Klay Thompson
Andrew Wiggins
Draymond Green
James Wiseman/Kevon Looney

8. SUNS

The Suns are good but at the same time you need the right users for them to work. 1. CP3 is solid but is hard to use on offense since he is short, has a slow shot & doesn’t have good finishing badges. 2. Ayton is solid but Mcgee is essentially the better center on 2k. Ayton can green mids & threes plays good enough D & can horse a little but Javale is just a super horse & is athletic af. 3. Mikal bridges nor Cpu is a LOCK LOCK. Bridges is fine but he isn’t ELITE by any stretch. 4. Booker has shit handles so he’s a spot up shooter. So what I’m saying is if you don’t have ELITE users then pick an easier team to use.

BEST LINEUP
Chris Paul/Landry Shamet
Devin Booker
Mikal Bridges
Cam Johnson
Javale McGee/Deandre Ayton

9. HAWKS

Hawks have an ELITE ball handler in Tare Young & an ELITE center in Clint Capela. The thing the Hawks are lacking is a perimeter lock. De’Andre Hunter is a decent lock but you would much rather have the 2k23 Hawks roster with Dejounte Murray. Kevin Huerter is a sneaky good player & John collins is very solid at the 4. The Hawks are very good if u get an ELITE ball handler & ELITE center. This team is can be a better version of the Warriors if played correctly.

BEST LINEUP
Trae Young
Kevin Huerter
De’Andre Hunter

John Collins
Clint Capela

10. JAZZ

The Jazz are a very interesting 2k team. They have a good ball handler in Donovon Mitchell & the best rim protector Rudy Gobert. Royce O’Neale, Mike Conley & Donovon Mitchell all play solid perimeter defense. Rudy Gay has ALWAYS been GLITCHY in 2k so you start him at the 4. Even tho I have the Jazz at the 10th ranked team, I could easily see someone win the Finals with them. They’re just a super braindead team that can beat almost anyone.

Mike Conley
Donovan Mitchell

Interview with HoLLyBlaCkWooD, Call Mee Kyle, Lomstar & LA CHAOS225

I caught up with the Suns lock HoLLyBlaCkWooD & the Grizzlies owner Call Mee Kyle for a quick interview.

HoLLyBlaCkWooD

How confident are you going into your matchup vs CLEVELAND CASH & the Memphis Grizzlies? Whats your series prediction?

Im extremely confident going into my matchup with Cleveland Cash & the Memphis Grizzles! All season we’ve preached team defense and we trust in that! We have excellent defensive anchors in x KING JON x & MRxxUSERxxPICKx, couple that with my on ball capabilities improving as the season continues, yeahhhh bitch! ! Series Prediction — eh Im not a big fan of those — But Id say that if we play our game and leave it all on the floor this series should be over in timely fashion !

So since you believe the Suns will move onto the finals. Who do you think will come out the East? Also do you think any of the remaining 3 teams can compete with yall? (Bucks, Nets, Grizzlies)

its gonna be a dog fight on the East between the Bucks and the Nets ! Giannis vs KD It honestly can go either way — but from what Ive seen is you gotta bet on Giannis, its just that simple. And do I think any of the remaining 3 teams can compete with us? No — its literally just Us bro. We are our biggest competition remaining in these playoffs. Simple

Some people have been doubting that User Pick is the MVP…What do you have to say to that? Are people just salty?

Salty … tuh ! Listen Linda — for anyone to say that Pick doesn’t deserve MVP while being at the top of the league with fuckin Landry Shamet can drown in Pelican Bay and thats on Mary and her Little Lamb tf ! But to answer your question –> Y E S <– he is the MVP , fuck we talkin bout

Do you think YoGuardBron is the ZEUS of 2k?

Id never call anybody Zeus on this shit ass game and thats word to my nigga x KING JON x

Call Mee Kyle

How confident are you heading into your WCF matchup vs the Suns? What do you think the outcome of the series will be?

Honestly very confident I threw 5 together the last week of the season just to show up for the game and beat them. I think this series goes 5 games grizzlies 3 suns 2 cash beats picks line in game 5 Jon gets dropped off by woody in game 5 like what happened in the regular season when he was facing saver

So since you believe the Grizzlies will move onto the finals. Who do you think will come out the East? Also do you think any of the remaining 3 teams can compete with yall? (Bucks, Nets, Suns)

I honestly think the bucks come out the east don’t really know much about the nets think the finals will be close just based on them having the bucks

I’ve been hearing that players on the Grizzlies felt cheated that they didn’t win some awards…Do you feel the same way? Also do you think this is the driving force behind your teams level of play?

I think cash should of won mvp definitely pick played weak teams in my option and people can say cash had a star but the other 9 owners could of picked the grizzlies but didn’t. In my opinion Eli should of gotten sf of the year averaged 30 with brooks. I think the awards will be why cash line wants to beat the suns more and more

Do you feel like this szn is a ring or bust or would you be alright if your team lost the WCF?

No I don’t think so we been the underdogs all season they projected us 3 or 4th in the west before the season started so I think we’re gonna prove the doubters wrong

Would you call all the people low iq who have questioned your trades this szn?

Honestly switzo is good player but he didn’t show up for his playoff game which made them forfeit so I think we made a great decision there. Wish we kept Kurupted but confusion happened making that happen. eboK trade was great he was an easy beat for us in the 1st round of the playoffs.

Do you think YoGuardBron is the ZEUS of 2k?

He’s good player just don’t think he’s the best player in the league that’s my opinion though

Revolves caught up with the Bucks owner & Nets GM for an interview.

Lomstar

How confident do you feel going against a super team 2k wise of the Nets?

Im confidant in my team. This is a video game though shit happens lol

You guys already won game 1, so what does your team need to do in order to keep winning?

We have to be available lol. Lord and zhas line have mostly been available but between messed up trades and availability our hardest thing is to be available

What do you have to say to some people saying you’re only in the offs because of the bucks?

In fine with that. Thats one thing about me I dont care about the talk. There is only one winner each season and we dont have one yet

If you advance to the finals, who do you believe you’ll be playing there and why?

If we do make it i think we will be playing the Suns. Dont get me wrong grizz can get there but I think it will be suns. Both haden and Kyle put good teams together and i know it will be a dog fight between them and then another from whoever comes out the east

You were previously suspended during the season, but never had a chance to talk about it in an interview. Can you say your side of the story for the whole VBA to see? Did you believe it was the right thing?

I was suspended because they say i didnt put stat in. I put every stat in and “somehow” they disappeared. I wasnt even given a chance to put in again. I was going to appeal but just took the game. Dont want to bash staff so i wont get too deep into it (pause) but i definitely hope they are better for upcoming seasons

If you win it all, will you return as an owner next season?

No i will not be returning as owner. I was owner first season because i am an of of vfl and vba so i definitely want to see it at the top but im cool on owner for now lol. I still see guys with the same mindsets and the same childish bullshit from 10 years ago and i really dont be trying to deal with that. I will be a player and get guys to sign up every year and spread the word but no owner for me until there is no bias and everything runs damn near perfect which i hope happens but i doubt it

If Ebok was next to you right now, would you slap him or shake his hand?

I would do neither. I stay away from tough guys because they scare me and when im scared
Lmao…na i wouldnt do shit. This is a game i talk shit but i really dont care. I just want everything to be even on all sides and we are good in any situation

Do you have anything to say to the people of the league for your last question?

I appreciate everyone who tried to keep the league going and i hope we can push it far. Thanks to the owners who stuck with it and didnt give up. Thanks to the players who kept fighting win or lose. Thanks to my team because we definitely went through a lot behind the scenes lol. Hope to see everyone season 2 and hopefully that will be with me a champion but win or lose ill be there

LA CHAOS225

How confident do you feel about beating the bucks with arguably the best player on 2k(Giannis)

I feel confident the first game we had against them was the second time they beat us and I don’t think they can beat us in a 5 game series

What things do you need to do as a team to secure those wins?

Need to move the ball and hit our shots make them help

Who in your opinion is the most toxic of the league and why

Trying to get me in trouble lol, But honestly I think it is fab but I like the beef ain’t no hard feelings

What made you guys decide to do the aids lineup(ben and drummond) instead of a 5 out?

Defensive purposes and Ben doesn’t have great rebounding Drummond has a 94 offensive rebounds and 97 defensive so we won’t get out boarded

If your team advances, who do you believe you will play in the finals and why?

Don’t care. We winnin it all.

VBA Conference Finals Prediction

WESTERN CONFERENCE:

People may consider this the match up of the year. With the MVP in MRxxUSERxxPICKx leading the way and MVP candidate Cleveland Cash in opposition, it is going to be a great series. In terms of winning condition for the Suns, they need to try and contain Morant as much as possible despite how great he is on the game. Cleveland has been doing an outstanding job controlling the pace in each quarter; calling early backdoors, knowing the contact animations, or throwing frees for Adams. His ability to score at will but also hit Wade on dexes is also a problem. If Suns would like a chance to go to the finals, both bridges and centers need to have the best defensive game possible. The key players in this series isn’t Chris Paul (Shamet) or Booker. MrxxUSERxxPICK and Primo Re have been putting on a clinic all season. Evidently, the key players who can change the outcome of this game is Ruthless, Blackwood, Kelz, and Jon. In my opinion, they will not drop a game against the Grizzlies second line. Therefore, the goal is to do their best to win one against Cleveland to close the series out.

In terms of the Grizzlies winning condition, their second line needs to do their best to steal a game against either Suns line. They have been blown out by the Suns all season. If playoffs are similar to previous games, Cleveland will need to win both games and Game 5 to push through, which is such a tall task going against the Suns users. At the end of the day, it is a 2K game and anything can happen. In terms of gameplan, they will need to figure out how to beat the undefeated line between MVP MRxxUSERxxPICKx and DPOY x KING J0N x. The league knows they play the game like the 80s Celtics but it is up to them if they can stop the designated plays. The Grizzlies need to push the tempo and put defensive leaders like Blackwood and Jon on the backfoot. It may sound crazy but the winning condition isn’t Cleveland Cash or WadeO; they have been hooping all season and that should not change. The players who will make the most impact will be Clutch King and Woohdy. If they can provide the swing, steals, and blocks needed like they have all season, it will be tough for the Suns to win 3 games against them. If these two players don’t have a perfect game, I can see their top line splitting the series 1-1 or even going 0-2. If they do have a perfect game, I can see them going 2-0 as a line.

PREDICTION: SUNS IN 4

Reason: The Suns go 2-0 vs the grizzlies second line and 1-1 vs Cleveland Cash.

Eastern Conference:

Despite this not being as hyped up as the western conference, this is also an extremely close matchup. Within the season, Nets have blown the bucks out a couple games. However, I do not think that will be the case in the playoffs. The bucks have a really good line between Lord Relaxx and Zhajesus on Jrue and Giannis. If they would like a chance to reach the finals, they will need to go 2-0. Their backpack is going to be pretty hefty because of how good the nets are as a team. The users on the nets know how to abuse how easy the paint is on this 2k. With their type of motion offense, it will be difficult for the bucks to contain. In terms of the winning conditions for the bucks, Lord Relaxx should let the game come to him. There are times when he chucks or takes bad shots when frustrated. Outside of Zhajesus going absolutely crazy, they need their shooters to shoot efficiently. However, I think the Nets second line is better than the Bucks second line. If they can so happen to steal a game, they can end the series in 4 games. If middleton and jrue can guard the KD wraps that the nets love to do, i think the series will be much closer than people think.

In terms of the nets, their winning condition is stopping Zhajesus. The bucks do not have a second giannis of his caliber so they should take advantage and not drop a game vs them. However, if they can somehow manage to beat Lord Relax and Zhajesus, I think the Nets win the series 3-1. The key players for this team is Bodega and Chaos. Bodega has shown the potential of Ben Simmons being a defensive juggernaut. With him making All Defensive, he needs to do his best to bait and contain Giannis. Outside of that, there are players like Ron Gotti and DODADAMNTHING who play Drummond who need to play the paint defense a bit better if they want a chance against Giannis despite how hard it may be. In terms of offense, be as toxic as possible with the triple big lineup. All in all, sweep the bucks line 2, and try to beat line 1 at least once.

PREDICTION: 3-2 BUCKS

Reason: Zhajesus line goes 2-0, the bucks second line goes 0-2 and the bucks go on to win Game 5.

NFC Matchup!!

(1) WFT ( 26-10 ) vs (4) Saints ( 21-15 )

Last week Saints proved me wrong defeating the Eagles in a great 7 games series. It just seemed whenever the Saints needed a big play Smoove found a way to get it done. Washington on the other hand got pretty much a free ride to the next round with the Dolphins deciding to forfeit the series. There isn’t much info to discuss about Washington because they didnt play. Omni from the Saints was impressive late in game 7. Led a huge game tying touchdown drive which led to Eagles throwing a interception put the Saints in position to kick a game winning FG to advance to this point. Gotta give the Saints credit where credit is due. Dropped a Max bid QB , GM and owner had beef , kicked a QB off the team and then picked him back up later in the season. With all of that they are still alive in the playoffs. I think its very important in this series that the Saints play mistake free football. Washington has 2 guys in the top 5 for interceptions on the season , If Washington can continue to force turnovers I give them the edge in this series. I 100% believe Washington has the better group of QBs and DCs. However Im just not gonna count out the Saints , I picked against them before and yes I will be doing it again. My pick is gonna be Washington in 6! Beaste wins both games and Koolaid and Champ both get a win! Will the Saints prove me wrong again? Best of luck to both teams…

AFC Matchup!!

(2) Bengals ( 25-11 ) vs (3) Raiders

Bengals dominated last week in the first round vs the Steelers. I picked the Bengals in 6 and they won it in 5. Just as I predicted both Abyss and Brady would win both of their games which would advance them to the next round. Also Bengals had 2 big late waiver wire pick ups with number 1 pick Child Please and Never Practices. Raiders on the other hand struggled a little vs a Colts team I easily feel they should have beat in 5 or even possible swept. For me this is really a pick em series , I know most people have the Bengals as the favorite rightfully so. I do however believe this is the tough series for Cincy. Ty has seemed to have Abyss number over the past couple of seasons and make every game tough. Im not really worried about Brady , North and Dfeet I believe they go 2-0. The other 2 lines for the Bengals are my concern. Lets not forget Sac is no slouch as a 2nd line QB and has the potential to win some big games as he has shown he could do like game 7 of the Superbowl last season. My pick is gonna be the Bengals in 7. At this point I just believe you gotta win Brady 1 game out of the other 4 games to force a game 7 where I believe his line will get it done. Good Luck to both teams!

Sorci’s ECF/WCF Finals Predictions

VBA CONFERENCE FINALS

With the VBA season coming to an end, 4 teams are left fighting for a title. I take a quick dive into who I think will win the conference finals matchups & why.

ECF

The Milwaukee Bucks take on the Brooklyn Nets

Brooklyn has made it this far with an unorthodox line up but it’s clearly been working in their favor. The bucks in my opinion should be able to take this one, they’ve been consistent all season and have the BUCKS, but a 5 game series between two of the best NBA teams in the game can certainly go either way. The nets don’t really have a game plan, they’re play style is a lot of movement and brain dead drives, while the bucks definitely have more of a strategic play style, led by Giannis. With that being said I think the Bucks win 3-1 with ease.

WCF

The Memphis Grizzlies take on the Phoenix Suns

Now this should be a very good series. Both teams are led by MVP candidates. I think Cleveland Cash has something to prove against this team. The suns do have more depth, with both lines having a combined 1 loss , I’m not sure how the grizzlies second line matches up with the suns second line and that may be where Memphis struggles. The suns have been rolling all season but I don’t see this series going how the season went, it’ll be a close one. With that being said I have the Suns winning a nail bitter 3-2.

eboK’s WCF Prediction

I have the Grizzlies winning this matchup 3-2(CLEVELANDs line 3-0, Kyle line 0-2). I believe that CLEVELAND CASH will be able to DOMINATE on offense while the PFoty in my eyes CLUTCH KING will lock up any & everybody he faces. This Grizzlies line has some of the best role players in the league in Wade, Eli & Woohdy. With that being said they’ll have to defeat the MVP USERPICK in order to get to the finals but I don’t think it’ll be a tall task for the Grizzlies. Even tho I voted for User Pick for MVP I think CLEVELAND CASH has had the most impressive season out of everyone in the VBA. He came into the league with no line set in place & told Kyle to get him whoever…not many people have the BALLS to do that. If cash was able to beat the Suns during the regular season he would’ve easily won MVP. Even tho King Jon is a top 3 Center in the league I just don’t know how he’ll be able to stop JA from scoring AND get the rebound over Steven Adams. This is exactly what happened in the Memphis vs Golden State matchup. Ja would miss a layup/dunk & Adams would Horse Draymond or Looney since they had to contest Ja. If Phoenix wins this series it’ll have to be off King Jons back.


I caught up with CLEVELAND CASH for ONE important question.

Do you think YoGuardBron is the ZEUS of 2k?

FXCK NO HAHHAHAHAHHAHAH HE CAN’T GUARD ME!!!!!!!! 3-0…

Interview with F3AR & R3dH0ur

With the playins being today & tomorrow I caught up with the GM of the Lakers & the Owner of the Clippers for some questions.

F3AR

I’m sure you had high hopes coming into the season. Are you disappointed in your teams regular season success? Anything you wish u did differently?

I wouldn’t say I’m disappointed in the season considering it was looking pretty bad at the start and we had quite a bit of roster turnaround. And there’s definitely things I wish I did differently ( can’t speak for Shady ) but I think there’s still time for that to change. Hopefully it does in the playoffs.

As GM of the Lakers how confident are you going into your playin matchup vs the Clippers?

I’m pretty confident going into the series. I’d expect it to be a 2-0.

Who will be the key to the Lakers success?

It’s tough to pick 1 person, but I’d have to say our role players (Melo and Monk ) if they stay ready to shoot and hit their shots I don’t think there’s a team we can’t compete with.

So you said your team can compete with anyone. If you do beat the clippers & move on you will be facing the Suns. How do you see that series going? 3-0 Lakers?

The series vs the suns will be tough no doubt. But every time we play them we compete for 2-3 quarters and it’s a close game and then we break down for 1 quarter or have a bad stretch and they just keep scoring. So I think if we can stay composed and play full games of basketball it will be a good series.

Do you think YoGuardBron is the ZEUS of 2k?

R3dH0ur

As owner of the Clippers how confident are you going into your playin series vs the Lakers?

Very confident. I know farah’s line will perform great and even though a lot of changes with my line and a lot of things have back fired. I have a feeling we can get past the lakers.

Whats your prediction on your series? 2-0 clippers?

It’ll be close but I believe we can pull it off. 2-0 clippers.

I know you’re happy with the Kxng clan line but do you wish you drafted differently for your other line?

Tbh no, I’m the type that likes to give others chances. only downfall we didn’t practice enough and that was on me due to busy schedule.

If you do end up advancing past the Lakers what are your expectations for this team? A cinderella run to a championship perhaps?

That’s going to hard to do. If we get past the lakers we play the warriors next? that would be a fun game to be in us against bron and mizz. they play amazing but we have a chance. if we get past them and probably end up playing against the “let kill R3DH0ur” suns. I swear every time I play against king jon and userpick. it never ends well but it could change. it just depends on how my line performs. I Kxng line will do amazing like they have been. it’s my just line.

You would play the Suns next round.

  1. Clippers vs 1. Suns
  2. Grizzlies vs 3. Warriors

I really want to beat the suns. they are so good. but I want to have one more shot and try to win one against king john and userpick.

Interview with Gabe iLy & DJ

With the playins being today & tomorrow I caught up with the GM of the Heat & the Owner of the Celtics for some questions.

Gabe iLy

As GM of the Miami Heat. I know you had high hopes/expectations for your team. Are you disappointed that your team went 9-14 & ended up in the playins?

Not really cuz we had to weather an egregious amount of availability issues to even get to this point… I tried my best to acquire enough talent to make a consistent line 2 and when they were all able to actually play, they looked pretty good. Also the heat are terrible tbh and I doubt any1 would do much better with them.

How do you think your series will go vs the Celtics? 2-0 sweep?

Yes.. I actually thought they were going to ff tbh… But we will do what we must. I actually respect the hell out of Dj for stepping up as owner for that team and working extremely hard to get games in when other teams that are WAY better than the Celtics continued to just ff.. Celtics are the only team worse than the heat IMO.

Do you think YoGuardBron is the ZEUS of 2k?

He’s Def 1 of the best players in this league imo… He should win sg of the year with klay, which is impressive cuz i don’t really think klay is that good tbh. If he was on a better player I think he could do alot more honestly.

Political answer.

^truth

DJ

DJ some would say you did a great job as owner givin the circumstances you were put in. With that being said how confident are you heading into your playin series vs the Miami Heat?

Tbh if we show up to play and slow the ball down and put the ball in the right hands I can see is winning in 3

Who do you think will be the key to your team’s success vs the Heat?

Dudda or Kdot

We know you took over the Celtics late in the year but with that being said. What would be your dream lineup?

CLEVELANDoCASHo
KING MIZZARK
Gabe iLy
eboKtsoP
Kurupted Nyx
From wat games I have seen

Do you think YoGuardBron is the ZEUS of 2k?

No

Care to elaborate?

Very guardable

NFC Matchups

WFT ( 26-10 ) vs Dolphins ( 16-20 )

I think this series is a total mismatch. Dolphins have 4 really good players but outside of that whats left. Best QB on the roster is playing WR ( Breesus ) , team just dropped 2 good players ( Child and Rivals ). Im wondering if I think Ebok and Breesus have to play on a line together and have to spend on Gabe and Kuhrow to carry a line on defense with one of the other QBs to give themselves a shot in the series. I think the best shot the Dolphins have in this series is to hope Kuhrow gets matched up against Champ , Kuhrow has literally dominated Champ over the past few seasons and I dont see that changing. You gotta hope Beaste gets matched up against your worst line and concede those 2 games in hopes to have either Kuhrow with Gabe or Breesus and Ebok win 3 of the first 6 games to force a game 7 and hope for the best. WFT are a big favorite to me in this series , betting odds for me would be WTF ( -550 ) Phins (+330). My Prediction is WFT in 6. I think Kuhrow line goes 1-1 and that will ultimately be the downfall for the Dolphins. Kuhrow and Gabe absolutely MUST go 2-0 for this series to be respectable.

X Factor players – UngluedTiger , Breesus

Saints ( 21-15 ) vs Eagles ( 18-18 )

This is probably going to be the best series as far as how close its gonna be in the 1st round. I think the Eagles are the more talented team but the Saints are the better Madden team. Saints have had crazy things go on this season , GM Del was upset with his QB being traded now hes back on the roster , max bid Ponchy was dropped to waivers for whatever reason however here we are. Eagles have alot of VFL vets on the team so they have alot of guys with experience. I think the pick up of Hog for a third line late in the season is a boost for that team. I like a few players the Saints have I think they can make a huge impact. I think BlackOmni is one of the most underrated QBs in the league. I really like Smoovee and Del as RBs as well and Del can wreck some havoc on the DL. However I totally feel all the pressure is on Warpath in this series. Areis and Hutch have been reliable in the playoffs to get you 1 if not both wins in the series. Warpath has had someone plays struggles and he needs to change that in order to help his team see the next round. I think this will be a close back and forth series but im gonna lean Eagles in 7. If Ponchy was still on the Saints I would take Saints in 6 but I think it will be hard to replace your max bid player who was dropped to waivers. Hutch and Areis win a defensive battle in game 7 and advance to the next round. Areis has said he wins when its playoff time and has only lost 1 game in playoffs so If it gets to a game 7 which I fully expect it to , I trust Areis and Hutch get the job done! Eagles in 7.

Bengals ( 25-11 ) vs Steelers ( 12-24 )

People probably look at this series and probably think total mistake Bengals sweep. I can tell you now that 100% wont be the case. I fully expect the Steelers to make this a competitive series. The thing that makes this thing a series is simple , I dont trust the Blunkey line to win a game. Blunkey is 1-4 since joining the Bengals with the only win coming against the Falcons who aren’t even a playoff team. I think this could hurt the Bengals in later rounds. I think Brady , North , Dfeet will cause all the Steelers lines hell and will go 2-0. Abyss line is the wildcard for the Bengals heading into the playoffs. He will now be on his 3rd WR/DB in 3 weeks. However adding Rivals off waivers to Abyss line could prove to make a huge upgrade. When it comes down to it Im gonna lean Bengals in this series because they have better overall users and that will be the difference in this series. This is the series where I feel Abyss could slip up and lose a game and it not hurt the team as much. Im going Bengals in 6 in this series. Brady wins both games and so does Abyss. Ill go with the Veteran experience over a team who I think have a roster full of guys like Beach who improved but ultimately are just happy to compete in the playoffs.

Raiders ( 22-14 ) vs Colts ( 18-18 )

Honestly this is gonna be the fastest series in the first round. Raiders pretty much took Grof team from last season and made it his team. Sac , Ty , Orlando , Blk were all on the SB Packers team from last season. Willy is who was drafted by Grof this season is currently a Raider. Around the trade deadline Grof proceeded to trade the good players on his roster and ultimately tank the season. If Ace and company were still on the team this would totally be a different series in my eyes. Ohio as a owner has done a excellent job in team building over the past 2 seasons. He played his cards correct pre draft not using a max bid and trading up in the draft to selection Ty and Sac back to back in the 1st round. In the season matchup these 2 teams split 2-2 in head to head matchups , However this is the playoffs and I fully expect the Raiders to dominate the Colts. I have this series being a gentlemen sweep Raiders in 5.

Realest Top 25 VFL Players Seasons 1-5 ( 12-1 )

First off let me start off by staying I had a error in my first part of this article by 100% leaving out a player who should be on the list so I will put them as a tie with another player!

#12 – ( Warpath ) Warpath is a player who struggled early on in his VFL career. Started in season 2 where it was pretty much moved between the 2 worse teams Bucs and Chiefs. Season 3 he got his first good chance on the Cowboys and he did well for himself. The thing I like about Warpath be brought a different scheme. Most people use the same playbooks on offense and he used a different one. After a loss to him towards the end of the season I had to go rewatch my broadcast to understand what the hell he is was doing. But that comes with his biggest weakness , he only runs about 2 to 3 plays and if you catch on to them its VERY easy to stop. However his improvement from season 2 to seasons 3-5 are clear. Record in Season 2 was (2-8) and his record in seasons 3-5 is (22-12) which is a huge improvement. I think #12 is a good spot for someone like Warpath. Also very sad I was never teammates with this guy for a season 🙁

#11A – ( EboK aka Post Kobe ) Ebok is one of the most talented players in this league. While he may catch backlash for being a troll that doesn’t take away from his Madden skills. Ebok like Breesus was introduced to the league by Kuhrow and instantly made a impact often and early. Ebok spent his first 2 seasons playing Running back where he exceeded expectations with James Connor and Ravens shitty group of backs. This season he has made the switch to QB and is putting up great numbers , making a switch like that and succeeding instantly is huge in my book. Most impressive thing that is eye popping though is the EboK record in his first 3 seasons , with a record of (25-6) that has to be one of the better records in a 3 season span. I truly believe if EboK had a another season under his belt this Madden he would have cracked my top 7 or 8 but for now I think #11A is the right spot for him.

#11B – ( Ty Bomaye ) Has shown the most growth at QB in my opinion. In season 2 if you asked me who Ty is I would have said ” oh some shitter “. If you asked me season 3 who was Ty I would say I really good game manager. If you asked me Seasons 4 and 5 who Ty is I would tell you he is for sure a top 5 QB in the VFL. Ty really started taking off when he got to play with Tmo and Willy in season 3 where I feel they helped start his growth as a QB. They kept the game simple for him offensively and played defense and it worked. Ty then got on a teammate with his buddy Orlando and they have been a top line ever sense. Ty has a very boring scheme because he takes the clock with him. Ty is also tough to get a read on because he doesn’t really have set plays he really just takes what the defense gives him which makes him tough to beat. Even though I have Ty ranked at 11 I still feel he is very unrated , he should be GM/Maxbid type of player.

#10 – ( Outaker ) Outaker is obviously a good player and his career numbers this madden are great. Hes won of the better WR in the league and in 5 season I would have to say has to be a top 3 at DL. Even with the great numbers I sometimes feel lost on how to judge Outaker. Sometimes hes fully here and engaged and then sometimes hes just not. Outaker is one of the few who actually tracked his season one stats and they were good , In season 1 and 2 he put great numbers , Season he had a drop off where he only had 6 total sacks in the season , that is unacceptable for him in my eyes. Season 4 he picked it back up with another great season but here in season 5 he only has 3 games worth of stats? Outaker seems like one of those players who is very talented but will take a play off or in his case the whole season off lol. Regardless I think he is easily a top 10 player over the 5 seasons we had.

#9 – ( Gabe ) Gabe is in my top 3 for most TALENTED players in this league. He very versatile on both sides of the ball. On offense I would say he the 2nd most versatile offensive player in the league and I would say he the most versatile defensive player in the league as far as being able to play any role the team needs. Gabe in my eyes has been a top 2 at DL since season 3 , but he is also very capable of being elite at LB and DB as well. When watching Gabe play I think the most impressive thing about his game is his route running and thats at RB or WR. He always knows how to find the hole (pause) in the zone. Not only is he a great route runner but I would have to deem him the best at being able to high point the ball and come down with it as a WR. If Gabe would have played seasons 1 and 2 I think he would have cracked my top 5 or 6 but he didn’t so I feel 9 is a good spot for him.

#8 – ( Champ ) Champ has had a interesting 5 seasons. His first season Champ very much underwhelming considering he was in a QB room of Abyss , Beaste and himself. Champ was a big let down for the season 1 Ravens as he went 0-2 in the playoffs costing them a chance at a Superbowl. Every since then Champ really got in the lab with Farah and his game completely changed. He came out the a great scheme out of the Patriots playbook and really started torching the leagues cover 3 meta. Season 2 was a great season for Champ but he got himself suspended for the playoffs. Seasons 3 and 4 were both MVP runner up season for Champ but was beaten out by Abyss both times , Even with his dominate numbers and wins in the regular season Champ in both seasons continued to struggle in the playoffs. Champ really seems to lack the ability to beat man coverage. If I had to pick a DC who has been haunting Champ it has to be Kuhrow. I think this is the season where the most pressure is on Champ. Its the last season for this madden and he as yet to reach a SB. This time around he has Beaste on his team so the pressure of being Line 1 isn’t there anymore. Its time for Champ to answer the bell and start winning some big time playoff games.

#7 – ( Route Tech Tmo ) Tmo in my opinion is the most underrated player in the league. He is never heavily talked about when it comes to the leagues best. Lets not forget in seasons 1 and 2 his team made back to back superbowl trips as a owner. Tmo is one of the best when it comes to putting together a roster that can compete with the leagues best. After Tmo stepped away from ownership he joined staff to attempt to help better the league. While Tmo numbers might not be eye popping his impact on the field is felt. If I had to name the top 5 DCs in the VFL Tmo would easily be on that short list. Also in season 1 Tmo help lead the Chiefs to the VFL first SB this madden as a QB. Tmo is good at both LB and DL on the defensive side of the ball and has shown he can win at QB while also being one of the leagues better WRs. Ill be the first to admit I dont take advice from many people on Madden but Tmo showed me a defense and I was like damn this guy is smart. I think Tmo ranked at #7 will get laughs within the community but I think thats a good spot for a 5 season career.

#6 – ( Kuhrow ) Kuhrow might be the most dominant player of this Madden within the VFL. If I had to compare him to a athlete this Madden it should be Shaq ( with no rings ). While Kuhrow has been the Shaq of the VFL where is his Kobe ( R.I.P ). I feel like Kuhrow has somewhat put himself in a bad spot playing with QBs like game green and ace boogs when he could have easily been on better teams. Some will tell you that Kuhrow plays with worse players to have a built in excuse for when he loses. While I give him credit to trying to be the driving force sometimes you gotta realize the grass is greener on the other side. Kuhrow has easily been the best DL in the VFL seasons 1-5 and its not even close in my opinion. Kuhrow is a championship away from being in my top 5 and I dont see him getting it this season.

#5 – ( North ) North has been one of the most consistent players in the league as far as stats and wins. North has never had a season with less then 10 wins. Winning 10 out of 12 games every season is very consistent. While North is known as a winning he is also known for stuffing the stat sheet. North is dominant at both RB and DL. North has had 3 seasons with 750+ rushing yards , while also having 3 seasons of 400+ receiving yards at running back. On the defensive side of the ball North had never had a under 40 TFL and only one season under 20 sacks. North has shown he can carry a line leading while playing with Dfeet and also can be a great sidekick on a line to a great QB like IR Brady. North in my book is a top 5 DC in the league and has had a top 5 VFL career this madden!

#4 – ( Realest ) Im not going to sit here and talk about myself , Biased in me I would rank myself number 1 because I 100% feel im the best player in the league. Just dont feel like its right for me to talk about myself and my accolades within this league. I also think ranking myself ahead of any of the next 3 players would be disrespectful considering Ive never played the toughest position in this league which is QB.

#3 ( Brady ) It feels wrong to say Brady is the worst of these 3 because I have the upmost respect for all 3 of these guys but I have to rank Brady number 3 as far as this list and these 5 seasons went. Brady has been consistently one of the best QB this league has had. Season 2 was horrible for Brady dealing with a terrible situation that led to him being blacklisted for the last couple weeks of the season. But he came back season 3 motivated going 10-1 but ended up losing in the playoffs in a classic to Beaste which made his team check out for the remainder of the series. Season 4 Brady had another great season going 10-0 in the regular season and 2-0 in the playoffs but the other lines couldn’t pull off a win to force a game 7. Brady has been on the short end of the stick this Madden and I did him no justice by stepping down from ownership. However I still have faith in the Bengals hoping Brady can lead the team to the Superbowl and capture his first ring this Madden. I would like to go on the record and say at this point in time Brady is the best QB in the VFL!

#2 – ( Abyss ) Abyss has had a absolute stunning 5 seasons at QB. He is the only player who has won multiple MVPs this madden and one of them with Sam Darnold. Abyss is known for being very safe with the ball with a clock control offense and solid defense. Abyss I would also have to stay was the best owner seasons 1-3 as far as putting together a team , making sure there were no forfeits etc. He is one of those QBs who seeks advice from his teammates when something is going wrong. I can speak from experience seeing as Ive played with him 95% of this madden. He makes the game easy for someone like myself knowing im going to get consistent play out of a QB. So how do I have the guy who won a superbowl going as a owner who team went 12-0 in the playoffs season 3 and won back to back mvps ranked #1? Well thats because I have his season 3 teammate number 1.

#1 – ( Beaste ) Beaste has had the best VFL career this Madden in my opinion. Season 1 Beaste went undefeated in the regular season and where he ended up losing game 3 to the SB champion Chiefs. Season 2 Beaste captured his first VFL championship while being the owner of the Cleveland Browns. Season 3 Beaste repeated with a championship with a team who went 12-0 on a crazy playoff run. Here we are season 5 and Beaste team is back in the mix again as probably the favorite heading into the playoffs. Wherever Beaste is winning is happening and he has to get credit for that. My final decision for number 1 came down to Abyss and Beaste. The deciding factor for me is Beaste has 2 SBs and Abyss has 1. Beaste has also won without Abyss on his roster and Abyss hasn’t won without Beaste on his.

Hope you all enjoyed this ranking ( im sure you didnt if your not on the list or dont agree with you place ). Good Luck to everyone the rest of this Madden!

Realest Top 25 VFL Players for Seasons 1-5 (25-13)

My one exception for making the list is you had to complete 3 of the 5 seasons! One player who would for sure be in my top 10 to 15 will not be on the list because he joined the league in the middle of season 3 and that is Ponchy!

#25 – ( JPxProdigie ) JP is surely one of the better WR/DB within the league , JP was a superbowl champ in season 1 with the Chiefs and was a superbowl runner up in season 2 with the Packers. JP is also one of the 4 people to win the DB of the year award. He is known for his very aggressive play style at DB , more like a center fielder in baseball , he thrive in cover 3 and is a old school VFL player with an old school mindset. Couldn’t see myself leaving JP off this list so I have him at #25.

#24- ( Hutch ) Hutch has played in all 5 seasons of the VFL and has done very well at QB/LB , he has played with the same WR/DB all 5 seasons but no matter who the RB/DL is they do well in his offensive system and are a huge focal point of the offense. I played one game in season 1 on that line at RB/DL and felt if I played with them I would easily have a shot at 1,000 rushing yards and 500 receiving yards in a season because how much the RB is involved. Hutch is #24 on my list!

#23 -( Farah en Fuego ) Farah is probably the biggest lab rat and film study guy within the league , Madden created a ability called Film Study and if anyone in the league deserve that ability it would be Farah. Farah also has to get 50% of the credit for Champ QB development over the past 5 seasons. However I do feel his user skills are very subpar at best , I would deem him an average WR/LB. Ill never forget season 4 telling Abyss to throw right at his face and see what he does. However his knowledge and in-game awareness alone gets him in my top 25 so I have him at #23.

#22 – ( NVTECVSHMNEY ) Nate in his first couple of seasons played QB and he was below average. His best seasons were seasons 3-5 when he made the switch to RB. In season 3 and 4 Nate was very much the driving force of the offense on his line both seasons. When he is calling defense he is known for his very off meta play calling. You can never get a read on what he is doing , one play he could call cover 3 the next play you might see a all out blitz. This season Nate has made the transition to DL where he is top 3 in sacks and tfls. Since moving to RB Nate has become one of the better RBs in the league and lets not forget he is a SB Champ. I have Nate at #22 on my list.

#21 – ( Clutch King ) Clutch is easilyyyyy one of the most underrated players in the league , if I had one word to describe Clutch it would be ( Consistent ). Clutch has played with Beaste almost every season but season 4. Clutch is a 2x superbowl champ with both the Browns and Chiefs. Clutch is also a very versatile player playing both RB/WR and was successful at both. Somehow clutch is always drafted in the mid-later rounds of the draft and that shouldn’t happen. Clutch is a no brainer on this list so I have him at #21

#20 – ( Shady on Xbox ) Shady is a very solid RB/DB , I personally don’t understand why he keeps switch back and forth from RB to QB. I think he would be higher on my list if he didn’t keep switching so much. Also I think playing RB with fear can hurt your numbers because fear has a very predictable offense and you can just key on his RB. However in that offense Shady has still done well for himself numbers wise. Also like JP one of the only people to win DB of the year and led the league in single season INTs until this season. I couldn’t leave Shady off this list either so I have him at #20

#19- ( Areis ) Areis is pretty close to a clone of how I view JP. Good WR/DB who thrive best in cover 3 defense I actually dont think Areis knows anything outside of cover 3 on defense. However him and Hutch have been a solid duo in this league since season 1 started. My only issue with Areis is he is known for not wanting to play the best competition in the regular season. Outside of that he is one of the better players within the league and is known to win you at least 7 to 8 games a season. Areis is #19 on my list.

#18 – ( Justt Smoove ) Smoove is in my top 4 as far as running back goes , Easy on of the top pure runners the league has to offer. I would say hes an above average route runner at running back but certainly not the best. Smoove as a DB sometimes worries me a little. Sometimes in cover 3 he is on the middle third and in cover 2 ive seen him on the flat or on the deep zone , hell in man ive seen him on the outside corner. That could easily wreck someone play or it could result in a big touchdown. However he gets the job done. Lately ive heard rumors of him being a Diva. Dont let the awards and winning get to your head kid stay humble! Smoove is #18 on my list!

#17 – ( GaabageAssassin ) Gaabage is top 5 at DL in this league , when he is not eating peanut butter and pickle sandwiches he is probably sacking your QB or hitting your running back in the backfield. Gaabage was so good at DL in season 3 he was awarded with Defensive player of the year. However I think he lacks alot on the offensive side on the ball. By far the best teammate ive had this madden , low ego , never complains just shows up and wrecks the game on the defensive side of the ball. Gaabage gets spot #17 on my list!

#16 – ( OrlandoStayWoke ) Orlando is also very underrated , Season 2 Orlando was the 1st pick in the draft to play QB , I actually think Orlando is a pretty good QB just doesn’t take the time to lab to be a great one , Orlando started at WR for Abyss Season 1 and I thought he was average at best , however these last couple of seasons he has made huge improvement and became very solid , He also became good enough to become a DC in the league which I never thought he could do. Orlando is a superbowl champ season 4 with the Packers and him and Ty as a duo is one of the better ones within the league. Orlando is #16 on my list!

#15 – ( Breesus ) Breesus took the league by storm season 3 as a rookie QB , winning rookie of the year and make a superbowl in his first season in the league. He followed up his impressive rookie season with a better 2nd season on the Cardinals almost passing for over 3,000 and 396 rushing yards. Not only was he good on the offensive side of the ball he was good on the defensive side of the ball having 14 and 16 picks in those 2 seasons. My question is why did Bressus move off QB? Scared to play without elite QBs or without Kuhrow or Gabe? Regardless I think 15 is right spot for Breesus.

#14 – ( Child Please ) Child is one of the better players within the league and I feel like half the league doesn’t even know it. Child monster on the DL with the bull rush. He might very well be the best at the Bull Rush in the league. I think if Child really committed to the league like other players and bout a wire to improve his connection he would be even higher on my list. While Child is great in the regular season this guy can’t find a playoff win LITERALLY. Child is also a very underrated at running back , Im very confused on why he made the switch to QB but please never do that again! His DL play alone gets him at #14 on my list!

#13 – ( Dirty Falcons ) Dirty used to be known as a top 3 QB within this league in my eyes , and then everyone found out what man coverage was. Season 1-3 he was a machine and putting up eye popping numbers at QB. Season 2 he was a superbowl champ with the Browns and continued season 3 putting up MVP type numbers with Tannehill. Then the playoffs hit and he ran into Kuhrow and seemed a little lost in the sauce. Every since the season 3 playoffs this guy just hasn’t been the same and hasn’t adjusted very well. But this is a season 1-5 ranking and I think #13 is a fair ranking for Dirty.

That concludes my ranking for players 25-13. Tomorrow I will be making the list of my players ranked 12-1. Whos ranked to high? To Low? Who should be in the top 25 that you think won’t be? Feel free for feedback! If you dont like my list feel free to make your own.

Gabe iLy VBA Season 1 Awards Race (DPOY)

With season 1 for the new and improved VBA well underway, I thought now would be the perfect time to talk about something that makes the VBA so great and a big reason why we all play (aside from winning the chip of course) and that is the recognition that comes with winning awards and being considered the best or 1 of the best in the league at your position!! With that being said I am going to take a look across the league and talk about who I think is in play to win the following awards MVP, DPOY, COTY, PG, SG, SF, PF and C of the year (based on win/loss, stats, and my own personal opinion of their performance this season). I will be rolling out the these articles in a series so I can go more in depth with my analysis and give these guys the credit they deserve. Today we are going to talk about the defensive guys that embrace the gritty side of 2k and help their team win games with timely steals, blocks or by shutting down the other teams star. So without further ado, here are my leading candidates for DPOY!!

DPOY

1. Kurrupted

Record 6-2

1-0 Vs Shaun 776 (Warriors)

2-0 Vs Zhajesus (Bucks)

1-0 Vs Primo Re (Suns)

Stats

  • 7.8 STL

Kurrupted, a longtime vet of the VBA and comp team up scene, has started to come into his own over the last couple years. He is no longer just another good player known for teaming with former VBA Legends EvLegrand and Aceboogie. His recent domination in 2kgodz over the past 2 years has seen him become one of the best comp team up players in the community. This would all lead you to believe that he is tearing the league up on a star like Harden or Embiid but that is not the case at all.. Kurrupted instead took on the role of Matisse Thybulle and has had an immense impact on the game for his line, averaging an astonishing 7.8 steals per game to go along with blanketing the opposing teams star ball handler, often times taking them completely out of the game. This has led Kurrupted to an impressive 6-2 record, with wins over the rival Suns and Warriors under his belt, to go along with a 2-0 record over MVP candidate ZhaJesus (Bucks). With his unselfish style of play and stifling defense, Kurrupted and his line looked poised to make a deep run at the championship.

2. ZhaJesus

Record 3-2

1-0 Vs King Mizzark (Warriors)

1-0 Vs Bodega (Nets)

Stats

  • 4.2 STL
  • 4.2 BLK

ZhaJesus, a bit of an unknown to some in the VBA community, was taken with the Bucks 1st rd pick to be their premier Giannis and he has not disappointed in that role. Averaging a whopping 29 PPG 21 RPG 9APG and most importantly as it applies to DPOY, 4.2 STL and 4.2 BLK! While his record doesn’t stand out as much as the other candidates on this list, he does hold impressive wins over MVP candidate King Mizzark (Warriors) and Bodega (Nets). While Giannis is extremely braindead on this 2k, you cannot ignore the impact ZhaJesus is having with him on games. Getting almost 5 blocks and 5 steals a game are indeed video game numbers, and I certainly look forward to seeing how ZhaJesus closes out the season and heads into these VBA playoffs!

3. X KING JON X

Record 8-1

2-0 Vs Kuhrow (Heat)

1-0 Vs Bodega (Nets)

1-0 Vs Shaun/Woohdy (Clips)

Stats

  • 2.4 STL
  • 3.4 BLK

King Jon, ah where do we start with this grizzly old vet. Some might say he is the heart and soul of this Suns defense, others might call him a washed bum that is just mashing his Y button. The truth, as it often is, lies somewhere in the middle. All jokes aside though, Jon has been a defensive stalwart throughout his legendary career in these teamup leagues and that is no exception this 2k. He has had a profound impact on his line as a rim protector and leader and has them poised to make a deep playoff run if they can continue to dominate their opposition. The record speaks for itself (regardless what you think of who they have played) 8-1 is still impressive none the less, and the numbers are nothing to scoff at either, 2.4 STL and 3.4 BLK are certainly DPOY worthy. In my opinion however, it is the things that don’t show up in the stat sheet that has Jon on the cusp of DPOY, things like steeping on the screen consistently, stealing entry passes to the paint, timing pump fake spam under the rim or even sweet spotting to play 2 for glitchy pass lane steals. Jon is willing to do whatever it takes to get his team the W and is exactly what you are looking for in a championship big man!

Why I chose to step down from ownership

Im really making this because I feel a lot of people dont understand why I truly stepped down so I wanted to explain for those who dont.

Around the beginning of week 2 my 3rd line QB Hucci came to me and informed me he was not comfortable with his line because of one the people on his line wasn’t willing to practice. I told Hucci there was nothing I could current do because the trade deadline was already up and trades weren’t proceeded until Thursday. I also informed him that as an owner I could speak with him but I can’t force anyone to practice and he seemed upset with my response. I also asked Hucci right after picking him who he wanted and he said he didnt care just get him a solid RB and some guys who can play defense. I tried to trade JBX the player Hucci was frustrated with and hes not a known guy so nobody wanted him unless Hucci was involved in the trade. I told Hucci to just finish out the week and I would figure something out. After the week ended he finally told me if JBX was on the team going forward he wouldn’t be playing. So I did my best to trade him , After struggling to trade him I got a message from the Colts owner saying he would send me Marc , Black , Ace for Hucci whole line. Colts owner told me and I quote ” bro nobody in their mind would say no to that trade , damn near guaranteed you a super bowl mocarbone just retired for us so i’m just tryna put my good players in a spot where they can win “. I then told him I would be accepting the trade but would be moving them. He said again and I quote ” idc what you change trade to tbh “. I then make a trade with the Pats and Colts owner chooses to veto the trade because he was just tryna put my good players in a spot where they can win. I showed staff proof of all of this and was told I had to redo the trade because he didn’t agree to me trading the players I received to the Pats even tho he said and I quote ” idc what you change trade to tbh “. So whatever thats fine I just had to use my last trade to with the Pats no big deal. I make the trade with the Pats again to find out shortly after a player involved in the trade was quitting because he wasn’t gonna be on my team and was told by his former owner ( Colts Owner ) he was being traded to my team. I had proof that this owner told his player he was being traded to my team before the trade was even done and no punishment was given and my trade was reversed. I then I had to explain to Hucci he was back on the team and he finally told me shortly after he wanted to be traded or dropped. Next day I made another deal with the Pats , Hucci , Woohdy , Bloody to the Pats for the same line I had just traded for the day before. Few hours later I hear now that Hucci is quitting with Hucci saying and I quote lol ” I should quit just to be petty , they fucked me shit comes full circle “. I did everything this player wanted , traded him which he asked to be traded or dropped and didnt involve JBX in the trade who he was refusing to play with. Once again my trade was reversed , I lost out on JBX because I sent him down just to attempt to do right by my QB , lost out on a QB because he wanted to be petty and lost out on the line I traded for 2 times in 2 days. Not to mention a teammate of mine ( a staff member) was aware of Hucci possibly quitting and never thought to tell me. So in 2 days I got screwed over by a staff member and Marc who I considered a good friend. After all this in 2 days I was literally stunned , frustrated. No punishments were being handed out for this shit happening So at that current time I felt like it was time for me to be done playing. However now im pissed that I quit because if my team doesn’t win I really feel like I let them down. I promised Brady when he took my GM I would get him his first ring. Honestly just wanted to tell my side of the story because I dont like being known as a quitter.

Good Luck to everyone the rest of the season!

Interview with JpxProdigie

Today I took the time to interview Eagles WR/DB JP. JP is a well known VFL Vet and Season 2 DB of the Year. So far this season JP has a 6-3 record with over 1,000 receiving yards and 17 interceptions which is currently 3rd in the VFL. Here are a few questions answered by JP!

Question 1 – Now that week 3 is in the books how are you feeling about your team?

Answer

We’re honestly sitting right about where I thought we’d be. We’ve got two solid lines, but we all knew that the 3rd line was going to be a crap shoot. The line we drafted went ahead and called it quits, had to call-up a whole new makeshift line, then that QB “got paid to quit the league” (AKA- he made up a lie to leave on his own).. but now we grabbed Hogcrazy who’s been around forever. We’ll see what we can do. I’m having a lot of fun on my line. Warpath, Haden, and I have a lot of funny times

Question 2 – How has it been playing with Warpath?

Answer

Well I haven’t gotten him traded yet, so that’s good. He’s definitely the best QB I’ve played with so far. My first two seasons I had Tmo and MRUSERPICK at QB, so we were pretty much just trying to win with defense. But this season we’ve got some offense to go with it which is nice. He brought some of his plays, we labbed up some new things. And we just get along great too. So it’s been fun.

Question 3 – What team do you see as the biggest threat?

Answer

Well after some events took place over there in Cincinnati, I think it’s WFT’s to lose this season. We’re not a threat to anyone.. Cincinnati will still be good, but I think it’s Washington. Especially after Ponchy somehow made his way over there.

But hey, maybe Playoff Farah and Champ make an appearance again and make things interesting

Question 4 – In the Eagles team chat how often do Areis and yourself debate who is the better DB?

Answer

There’s not much back and forth, because both of us truly believe we’re better than the other. Areis gave off quite a few humble brags at first but it’s been quiet lately. We’ve had (and still have) our differences, but I know he’s a Top DB also. And he knows I am. I just think he’s a little thrown off by not being the best DB on his team for once 👀

Question 5 – what are some things within the league you would like to see changed headed into Madden 23?

Answer

I want the bidding back, of course. I think that helps prevent those super teams from being built. I also don’t like the max bids. Again, making those super teams easier to form. I think the more talent in the bidding pool, the more prices will be bid up and make strategy that much more important

Question 6 – Including yourself if you could assemble a VFL dream team who would the other 8 players be?

Answer

Thinking potential lines here- Abyss, Realest, Kuhrow… Champ, Farah, Outaker…. MRUSERPICK, Myself, and a QB/DL… maybe Beaste would play DL for me and Pick? If so, that’d be my choice
