Now folks, when it comes to throwing animations in Madden 23, well, you gotta be smart about it, okay? This ain’t just pressing a button and hoping the ball lands in your fella’s hands. Nope, sir! Choosing the best throwing animation can make a big ol’ difference, especially if you want to throw that ball fast, sharp, and on point.
First off, let’s talk about this thing they call the Slinger 1. Now this is the top dog when it comes to speed. I’m talkin’ lightning-fast! If you’re someone who likes to get that ball out quick as a whistle, Slinger 1’s what you need. They say Matt Stafford got the quickest throw animation, and if you seen him on the field, you’d know that boy don’t waste time, no sir! Slinger 1 works best if you’re under pressure and gotta throw before the defense can blink.
Now, if we’re lookin’ at the other fellas, like Lamar Jackson, he’s got a real close one too, and folks say his throw style’s quick as well. Ain’t quite as snappy as ol’ Stafford’s, but it’s up there! You also got the Generic Style throw, which is faster than some but not as good as the Slinger 1, so you might wanna think twice about that one if speed’s your thing.
Now, if you’re out there throwin’ passes to different kinds of fellas, you gotta watch who you’re throwin’ to and how. See, throwin’ a jump ball to a short guy, like someone who’s only 5’8″, well that don’t make much sense, now does it? That fella might struggle, bless his heart, ‘cause taller defenders could snatch that ball right from him. If you’re goin’ long or throwin’ high, best make sure your receiver’s tall enough to handle it.
- Bullet Pass: Press that button down hard, and you’re sendin’ a fast, straight ball to your man.
- Lob Pass: Just a light tap, like tossin’ a soft pitch, great if your man’s wide open.
- Touch Pass: This one’s like a middle ground – a quick flick, good for medium throws.
- High Pass: Hold both triggers if you need to throw higher, say to avoid defenders.
Now, maybe you wanna know how to change the throw style for your quarterback in Madden 23. Here’s the thing: head over to “NFL Rosters” in the game menu. Find your QB, and you’ll see an option that says “View Player Card.” Once you click that, scroll on down till you see “Edit Player.” From there, you can pick a throw style that best suits your playin’ style.
Not all QBs throw the same in this game. Take ol’ Justin Herbert, for example – his throw animation’s slower. So if you got him, just be patient, alright? He ain’t no Matt Stafford, but if you work with what he’s got, you can still do alright. Herbert’s a bit slower on the draw, but he’s good for plays where you got time to set things up.
One more tip for ya: if you’re facin’ those defenders, make sure to guide the ball away from ’em. Use the left stick to aim when you throw. This way, if there’s a big ol’ defender standin’ in front of your man, you can avoid throwin’ it straight into trouble. Aimin’ that ball just a bit away from the defender gives your receiver a better chance at catchin’ it without someone battin’ it away.
So, that’s it! Madden 23’s got some throwin’ styles that make all the difference, but remember, no matter which style you pick, it’s all about who you’re throwin’ to and readin’ the field. Happy playin’!
