Yes the top players are all on US server, but the proportion of good players in EU is higher i feel like. I watch twich daily but all these US streamers seems to run into bad players way more often.
There are less “casuals” in the EU server i feel like, most of the people in EU plays fifa instead so only the sweats that really like hooping over football would play 2k here.
I have played on both servers and EU servers are definitely way harder.
The amount of players is much smaller and so the few that play the game, know how to play the game
Its not about US vs EU players are the better…
In the EU basketball isnt popular. Everybody loves football, and plays fifa. So the player pool here is waaaay smaller. Who plays Nba2k here is a basketball lover, or really good in the game. No middle ground, not many casuals.
Top tier players probably come from US still.
Yep, there’s much less 2k players on EU servers, much less basketball fans in Europe, so if someone plays this game it’s usually a hardcore player. That’s why the % (not quantity) of good players is higher . I have a friend from Massachusetts who spent 2 years here in Europe and he couldn’t wait to get back home to play “normal people” as he used to say
That’s is basics in both server the distribution of players can agrupate in a normal distribution of Gauss bell.
Just the quantity of players in USA is much large than in Europe.
I am from Spain and is easy play against the same guy two in a row, specially on pro am.
The sensation of good people is higher because the pool is lower.
