Power forwards are one of the shallowest positions in NBA 2K26 MyTEAM, especially when compared to guards and wings. While point guards, shooting guards, and small forwards receive a steady stream of elite cards, true high-end bigs-particularly power forwards-are much harder to come by, which often leads players with  NBA 2K26 MT to strategically buy NBA 2K26 MT to keep up with roster demands. Because of that lack of depth, building a competitive lineup at the four requires careful evaluation of jumpers, defensive impact, athleticism, and overall badge completeness to ensure every MT investment delivers maximum value.

S Tier: Elite Power Forwards
S-tier cards are complete, meta-proof options that can anchor any God Squad.
Joel Embiid sits comfortably at the top. He has elite size, a clean release, dominant interior defense, strong rebounding, and reliable finishing. As a PF/C hybrid, he impacts every possession.
Jaren Jackson Jr. is one of the most effective defensive power forwards in the game. His jumper is smooth and easy to green, his player build is excellent, and his speed allows him to switch defensively. He is a perfect modern big.
Chris Bosh is arguably the best version of Bosh MyTEAM has seen in years. He combines elite defense with a significantly improved jumper, making him deadly in pick-and-pop situations.
Paolo Banchero qualifies due to his ability to play power forward at a high level. He offers elite finishing, mismatch speed, solid shooting, and strong physical tools, making him one of the most complete cards in the game.
Hakeem Olajuwon rounds out the S tier. He is one of the best defensive bigs in NBA 2K26, rebounds at an elite level, and has a surprisingly effective release that many players find easy to green.

A Tier: High-Level Starters
A-tier power forwards are excellent cards that may be missing one elite trait but still perform at a very high level.
Players like Bob Pettit, Jack Sikma, Willis Reed, and Tom Gugliotta excel as pick-and-pop bigs with smooth jumpers and solid defensive presence. Dwight Howard and Amar’e Stoudemire bring strong athleticism and interior dominance, even with shooting limitations.
Anthony Davis, Marc Gasol, and Alperen Şengün offer well-rounded production with good stats and badges, though they lack standout animations or elite speed. Okongwu stands out as one of the best budget options in the tier, with a fast, easy-to-time release and strong defensive versatility.
These players are more than capable of starting on competitive squads and will outperform many higher overall cards in the right system.

B Tier: Solid but Flawed Options
B-tier power forwards are usable but have noticeable weaknesses, often related to jump shot speed or badge limitations.
Kevin Garnett and Lamar Odom fall here primarily because of their slow, inconsistent jumpers. Despite elite defense and strong all-around stats, their releases limit offensive consistency. Dirk Nowitzki is another B-tier option-effective as a pick-and-pop shooter but hindered by poor athleticism and finishing.
Players like Alonzo Mourning, Serge Ibaka, and Derrick Queen can contribute but lack either shooting reliability or complete badge sets.

C Tier and Below: Situational or Outdated
C-tier cards such as Patrick Ewing, Pau Gasol, Kevin Love, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Obi Toppin struggle due to poor jumpers, size limitations, or missing badges. While some excel in specific areas like slashing or defense, they are generally not recommended in competitive play.
D-tier options like Tim Duncan and Wes Unseld are simply too slow, undersized, or incomplete to justify lineup spots in the current MyTEAM meta.

Final Thoughts
Because power forwards lack depth in NBA 2K26 MyTEAM, jumper quality and versatility matter more than ever, especially for players looking to stretch their roster while managing resources like Cheap NBA 2K26 MT. Elite cards separate themselves through speed, shooting reliability, and defensive flexibility. While many A- and B-tier options to  Buy MT NBA 2K26 remain usable and budget-friendly, S-tier players like Embiid, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Chris Bosh provide the consistency needed to compete at the highest level. As better bigs are released, tier placements will continue to shift-but for now, this list provides a strong foundation for building a dominant frontcourt without wasting valuable MT.

Most players approach College Football 26 believing success comes down to playbooks, team selection, or raw stick skills. In reality, consistent online wins come from mastering a small set of advanced mechanics that the average player never learns. The following seven techniques with College Football 26 Coins , proven at the highest competitive levels, will immediately elevate your gameplay if applied correctly.

1. The Advanced Rollout Technique
Rolling out with a mobile quarterback is already strong, but competent opponents counter it with contain rushes. The advanced rollout technique neutralizes that entirely. Before the snap, full-slide your offensive line toward the direction you intend to roll. Then, untarget the furthest outside defender on that side. This forces the contain player to get boxed inside, creating clean space on the edge. The result is extra time to throw, guaranteed scramble yards, or both. Pair this with a corner route or quick out to punish zone defenses while staying safe against pressure.
​
2. Pass Lead Small Streaks vs. Man Coverage
Man coverage is the most common online crutch, especially Cover 0. To beat it consistently, first ensure your Pass Lead Increase setting is set to Small. Target receivers close to the quarterback-tight ends, slots, or solo wideouts-and send them on streaks. Watch the defender’s hips. If they shade inside, pass lead down and outside. If they shade outside, pass lead down and inside. This creates separation every time and produces reliable chunk gains without complex reads.

3. The Universal Counter to Pass Lead Streaks
If opponents use this tactic against you, there is a simple defensive solution. Shade your coverage outside and assign an inside third to a safety. Outside leads are smothered by leverage, while inside leads are thrown directly into the inside third zone. This shuts down streak-based man beaters without overcommitting resources or compromising the rest of your coverage shell.

4. Location Hot Routes (Reversed Routes)
Location hot routes allow you to access glitchy, reversed route stems in nearly any formation. By flipping a play with a cheat motion and hot-routing the motioning receiver during the flip, the game assigns the route from the original side of the field. This produces unique options such as reversed slot fades, extended return routes, and even reversed wheels. These routes attack zones at nonstandard angles and are especially effective against Cover 4 shells with limited hook defenders.

5. Speed Boosting with Shifty Players
Speed boosting is a game-changing ball-carrier mechanic. To perform it, you need a player with at least 90 Change of Direction and the Shifty ability (Silver minimum). While running, press L2 and push the left stick toward the side the ball is being carried. This triggers sudden acceleration bursts that outpace pursuit angles and frequently break defensive logic. If your running back lacks Shifty, use gadget packages to place a wide receiver at halfback for maximum effect.

6. Shooting Run Gaps on Defense
Elite defense begins with stopping the run. In three-down fronts, hover directly over the center or defensive tackle and remain unassigned. At the snap, loop into the open A or B gap and dive for the tackle. In four-down fronts, pinch your defensive line, crash them upward, hover four yards behind the center, and shoot straight through on the snap. This works against shotgun and under-center runs alike, producing tackles for loss with minimal risk.

7. Route Combos That Beat Switch Stick Defense
Aggressive switch stick defenders rely on Cover 4 with hard flats. To counter this meta, design route combinations that force impossible decisions. One of the strongest setups is a streak, slot fade, and stem-down corner from bunch formations. The corner forces a switch, the flat punishes overreaction, and the slot fade becomes a touchdown if the defender double-switches. Complement this with zig-flat or return-flat concepts to maintain consistent five- to ten-yard gains while setting up explosive plays.

Mastering these seven techniques transforms College Football 26 from a guessing game with  NCAA Football 26 Coins for sale into a controlled, repeatable system. Apply them deliberately, practice them in isolation, and you will see immediate results against even the toughest online competition.

The recent Herblore expansion centered around coral farming is the most impactful update the skill has ever received in Old School RuneScape.It fundamentally changes both experience rates and training routes with OSRS Accounts , especially for players willing to engage with Hunter and Fishing content alongside Herblore. With nearly 7,000 coral processed, this guide breaks down every major potion, the required secondaries, and which methods are actually worth your time if your goal is efficient experience-or a fast 99.
Why Coral Herblore Is So Powerful
Using coral alone, players can achieve over 1 million Herblore XP, even when sticking to mid-tier potions like Super Fishing. When optimized with Super Hunter potions and alchemist item synergies, experience rates can exceed 500,000 XP per hour during active processing. This makes coral-based Herblore the fastest method to 99, provided you can source the materials.
The Prescription Goggles and Alchemist’s Amulet are critical throughout this process. The goggles frequently save secondary ingredients, while the amulet provides additional potion doses, significantly increasing total XP per batch.

Elorn Coral: High XP, High Friction
Elorn coral is the lowest-level coral but also the most awkward to process. Its main outputs are anti-odor salts and hemostatic dressings.
· Anti-odor salts require large quantities of crab paste and offer relatively poor XP for the effort.
· Hemostatic dressings, while tedious to make, are extremely strong for their level. Each full process yields 127 XP per potion (27 XP from the unfinished stage and 100 XP from completion).
The bottleneck is cotton yarn, which is rare and time-consuming to acquire. Because of this, Elorn coral is only recommended if you actively want the dressings for PvM or utility use. Expect around 150,000 XP per hour during final processing, but significantly less when gathering materials.

Pillar Coral: The Core Training Method
Pillar coral is where the update truly shines. It supports two of the best potions in the update:
· Super Fishing Potions, using haddock eyes
· Super Hunter Potions, using crab paste
Both secondaries are easy to obtain, stackable, and synergize well with their respective skills. Crab paste in particular stands out-it is simple to farm, uses common fish offcuts, and produces higher XP per potion than haddock-based methods.
With the Alchemist’s Amulet active, Super Fishing reaches roughly 330,000-340,000 XP per hour. Super Hunter is even better, consistently exceeding 400,000 XP per hour and peaking near 540,000 XP per hour when optimized. This makes Super Hunter potions the best all-around choice for players focused purely on Herblore experience.

Rainbow Crab and Armadyl Coral Potions
Rainbow crab paste allows for additional coral potions that are extremely AFK-friendly. These potions require no secondary pouch and allow full 27-potion inventories. While the XP rates are lower than Super Hunter, they still reach approximately 500,000 XP per hour during processing and provide strong Hunter XP on the side.
The Alchemist’s Amulet remains highly effective here, often generating hundreds of extra four-dose potions over large batches.

Run Energy and Extended Stamina Potions
The update also introduces new run energy and extended stamina potions.
· Extreme energy potions offer moderate XP and are best processed one dose at a time to maximize amulet procs.
· Extended stamina potions are exceptionally powerful-double the duration of standard stamina-but require marlin, the best healing fish in the game.
Because marlin is both rare and valuable, extended stamina potions are not recommended for iron accounts. XP rates hover around 230,000 XP per hour when making four-dose potions, but material acquisition is the true limiter.

Final Verdict
Coral Herblore is a game-changer. Super Hunter potions using pillar coral and crab paste are the clear winner for experience, ease of use, and material accessibility. Elorn coral is niche but valuable if you want its utility items, while extended stamina potions with  OSRS Power Leveling are best reserved for high-end PvM specialists.
With efficient sourcing and proper item synergies, achieving over 1 million Herblore XP in a single session-and reaching 99 faster than ever before-is now entirely realistic.
