Takeover stacks & tiered play

New to the next-gen version of NBA 2K21 is the ability to set Primary and Secondary Takeovers.

When you’re in-game, your Takeover meter will fill up your primary Takeover slot first. Once filled, you can choose to activate it right away or wait to try and fill up your secondary slot. You take the risk of losing all your progress if you turn the ball over or miss a bad shot though.

But if you can fill in your secondary slot, you can activate both the primary and secondary takeovers together and keep them active for a longer period of time.

Finally, if you want to devastate your opponent even further, you can wait even longer and try to fill up the Team Takeover meter. If you can fill all three, activating will enable your entire teams’ Takeovers and it’s pretty much over for the competition.

How to change Takeover abilities?

To honor the late Kobe Bryant, who’s on the cover of the Mamba Forever Edition, the NBA 2K21 devs added a new Badge to this year’s game, entitled Mamba Mentality. To unlock this badge, you must have earned all of your character’s Badge points. Once you’ve acquired all of those Badge points and unlocked Mamba Mentality, you will have the ability to change your character’s Takeovers.

It’s going to take quite a bit of time to accomplish this, but this change does give players the ability to mess around with different Takeovers. Plus, the method to unlock this ability is relatively straight-forward.
