Summary
I’m sure you would be with me in saying there’s a lack of basketball games on mobile, which is quite a downer for hoop fans. Thankfully, NBA CLASH is here to fill the void - it’s a fast-paced, action-packed, and pocket-sized basketball experience complete with NBA-licensed teams and players. So yes, you’ll create a team featuring some of your favorite players like Steph Curry, Luka Doncic, and Devin Booker.
However, NBA CLASH is not a traditional basketball game but more of a casualized yet hardcore and incredibly competitive title where one wrong possession can mean the end of your winning streak. Fortunately, you will have a lot of ways to win thanks to player abilities and the many moves you can execute.
So, should you give NBA CLASH a shot, whether you’re a basketball fan or otherwise? Let’s check out what it has to offer:
Gameplay
In a nutshell, NBA CLASH is a heavily-competitive basketball experience where you control a team of six players - with three on the court simultaneously - and go up against other players and their rosters. The matches are relatively short since it’s only a race to score 11 points and uses the traditional two- and three-point scoring methods. With that said, quick matches are a good thing; it makes the game easy to pick up and play and delivers fast gratification.
Despite being a basketball game, NBA CLASH isn’t a simulation like NBA 2K or the now-dead NBA Live. Instead, it’s an arcade game, and players possess abilities that will change the way they play.
The main draw of NBA CLASH is its wide selection of real NBA players. These include rising stars like Ja Morant and Josh Giddey, along with established players like Jordan Clarkson and Demarr DeRozan. Topping the list off are players who will likely end up in the Hall of Fame someday, like Steph Curry and Joel Embiid. You’ll basically choose six players among the cards you have, with three of them on the court at the same time.
Every player has a unique ability you can trigger when you fill up a gauge via your on-court actions, whether a scoring run or a defensive stop. Steph Curry can daze the entire opposing team with his moves, while Draymond Greene uses his imposing presence to cause his adversaries to run out of energy. In addition, Karl Anthony Towns can add another point whenever he makes a three-pointer, while Jimmy Butler can steal the ball with a 100% success rate.
Apart from these special abilities, players can also perform various moves. For example, Joel Embiid can post up opponents on the paint, while Ja Morant can make a quick cut to the basket. All these abilities and the on-court action cumulate into a swift and fun experience. The game lets you strategize, fiddling with lineups that will determine your playstyle.
NBA CLASH’s controls are relatively intuitive, but they take a lot of time to master and get used to. In a way, it’s a mix of real-time swipes and taps, which are pretty crucial, especially on the defensive end. Moreover, every player has a specialty area where they can unleash their special abilities, and these change depending if they hold the ball or otherwise. Steph Curry can try to find an open spot beyond the arc, while Bobby Portis can muscle his way into the paint. Moreover, you can also play help defense, attempt steals, and stop drives to the basket with good defense.
The question remains, though: how do you obtain players in NBA CLASH? Well, you’ll receive them as rewards for participating in events and for winning matches. Players have different attributes and specialties, and your team composition will decide whether you’ll be a perimeter-focused or defensive team. Moreover, they’re separated into several rarity tiers, from common to legendary. Note that having players of the same attribute will give an OVR bonus. You can upgrade cards by merging similar ones, and as they level up, some players will unlock specific abilities. In a way, you could say that a level three Steph Curry isn’t as good as a level 20 Seth Curry.
The game relies heavily on loot box rewards, but you can obtain cards and other rewards through challenges and achievements.
Community
We’re sure NBA CLASH currently has a massive worldwide player base, thanks to its quick matchmaking. You can find other players to go up against within seconds, and if you’re feeling extra competitive, you can ask them for a rematch. Apart from this, the game also has Leagues where you’re automatically ranked according to your player level. Finishing high in these competitions will grant you bags full of goodies, ranging from player cards to coins.
Graphics/Sound
In terms of presentation, NBA CLASH doesn’t pride itself on having photorealistic graphics. Instead, its art style, court design, music, audio elements, and overall visuals scream NBA. Even player animations are on point; Towns and Steph Curry’s shooting strokes look accurate in-game.
Conclusion
Overall, NBA CLASH provides a fantastic basketball experience and is your best bet if you’re looking for an easy-to-pick-up-and-play title. Plus, you can collect and play as some of your favorite NBA players and go up against fellow fans worldwide.
