The NBA is currently engaged in a battle. As the NBA Playoffs progress, our favorite players are establishing their legacies. We're bringing the Trial of Champions to the virtual hardwood in Season 8 of MyTEAM.
NBA 2K21 MyTEAM Season 8 Courtside Report
We've selected six current NBA stars to compete in our Game of Rings, which will kick off the Season. With your MyTEAM lineup, who will you choose to represent? In the East, Ben Simmons is poised to make a deep run, while in the West, Anthony Davis, Damian Lillard, and Donovan Mitchell are laying claim. With Jayson Tatum and Zion Williamson already preparing for next season, YOU get to pick which of these six NBA stars will win our Game of Rings without costing 2K MT.
Every player will add these 6 beautiful cards featuring these challengers to their collection at Level 1 this season. It's all about decimating your opponents by filling up the stat sheet in this battle. Through June 14th, compete in Triple Threat with your favorite player. The top-scoring players from these six challengers will earn the entire community a guaranteed player locker code, which will include Galaxy Opals or a Dark Matter player.
The Level 1 reward is only the beginning, as you'll need to complete Agendas to earn XP and 2K21 MT on your way to Level 40 in this Trial of Champions. Luka Doncic, the Invincible Dark Matter, is at the top of the XP path this season! After completing your Trial of Champions, the young All-Star can make an even bigger impact on your opponents in Unlimited!
You'll relive a pivotal moment in Kevin Durant's quest for his first NBA Championship with Season 8's Signature Challenge! For you to recreate in MyTEAM, KD hand-picked his clutch three against the Cavaliers in the 2017 NBA Finals! Use the locker code KD-MyTEAM-SIG-CHALLENGE to get a Free Agent version of Durant that is eligible for this challenge. Match his 31 points and four three-pointers to earn a Hall of Fame badge and a Diamond Shoe for your lineup!
Let's take a look at all of the Dark Matter Reward Players you can earn this Season! Starting in Triple Threat, with Tom Van Arsdale in the Vault, Celtics big man Robert Parish awaits you at the new high threshold of 1,750 wins. After Tier 3 wins in Triple Threat Online, Tom's twin, Dick Van Arsdale, becomes available, forming an All-Star Dynamic Duo! Drazen Petrovic can be found by going 12-0 in the Unlimited Galaxy Opal tier, while Horace Grant can be found in Ascension, and Exchange players for Willis Reed, or find “The Iceman” George Gervin in the Reward Market (limited to 1,000 redemptions)!
Invincible Moses Malone, who earned 6 Rings in Limited, is the next Invincible Reward Player to be announced! Plus, Luka isn't the only Dark Matter available this season from Agendas; at Level 33, you'll get Bob McAdoo. When it comes to the Season's Agendas and their rewards, there's still more to learn. This six-week Season is set to offer more rewards, premium cards, events, and MORE than any other Season before it!
Starting with Trae Young, the Hawks' young superstar. Trae has made an impression against the Knicks, and you can get him by playing MyTEAM every day for the first week of the season! And all season long, we'll be following him up with a new Dark Matter as 7-day login rewards.
So, starting with Game of Rings, we'll be dropping Dark Matter rewards in all modes as well as login rewards. What's next after a six-week season that extends into July? We need to keep a few details close to the vest, but we have a few more surprises in store for the rest of the season, including the entire IDOLS Series III collection, that we can't wait to share with you! Let's just say we tried a few new things in Full Throttle that MyTEAM players loved, and they'll be back in Trial of Champions. For the time being, compete in the Game of Rings to earn that Level 40 Luka Doncic (and trust me, you'll want to get him as soon as possible this Season. Stay tuned for more information on that), and get ready for MyTEAM Season 8's Trial of Champions!
