NBA 2K25 has kept players on their toes with its exciting updates and fresh content drops. Whether you're a seasoned MyTeam veteran or a newcomer trying to build your collection, one of the most effective ways to boost your MT (MyTeam currency) is through sniping. Sniping involves finding underpriced cards and flipping them for a profit, and the key to successful sniping lies in knowing the best filters to use.
This comprehensive guide will walk you through the most effective sniping filters in NBA 2K25, from Diamonds and Amethysts to Pink Diamonds and specific themed sets like "Abracadabra." We’ll explore the strategies behind each filter, offering tips on how to maximize your MT profits while navigating the dynamic in-game economy.
Understanding Sniping and the Market
Before diving into specific filters, it’s important to understand the market trends in NBA 2K25 MyTeam. The market is constantly fluctuating based on pack drops, new card releases, and player demand. The cards you’re looking to snipe today may not be as valuable tomorrow, so it’s important to keep up with the latest updates and trends. Staying vigilant and having patience is crucial to succeeding in sniping.
For those who don’t know, sniping refers to purchasing a card listed at a price lower than its actual market value. Players then resell those cards at a higher price, pocketing the difference. This can be done with any rarity, from Amethyst to Galaxy Opals, and is particularly lucrative right after a new pack drop when cards flood the market at undervalued prices.
1. Diamond Cheapest Filter
Diamonds are one of the most accessible and consistent ways to make a profit in NBA 2K25. With the Diamond Cheapest Filter, you can consistently snipe underpriced cards and flip them for quick profits. Here's how you can use this filter effectively:
How to Use the Diamond Cheapest Filter
Set the Color to Diamond: This will limit your search to only Diamond cards.
Adjust Maximum Buyout: Use the maximum buyout filter to find the cheapest Diamond cards on the market. Typically, Diamond cards hover around 17,000–18,000 MT. Keep adjusting your buyout until you find the lowest prices.
Target Cards Below 13,500 MT: For a guaranteed profit, try to purchase cards priced below 13,500 MT. Resell them at the current market price, typically around 17,000–18,000 MT, for a quick profit.
Maximizing Profits with Diamond Cards
You can also target high-value Diamond cards, such as Detlef Schrempf. This player is often priced around 25,000 MT. By purchasing him at the cheapest Diamond price and flipping him, you can significantly increase your profits.
Pro Tip: Market prices can fluctuate with new card drops. Always monitor the prices of high-value Diamonds like Schrempf and others to ensure you are getting the best deal.
2. Position-Specific Diamond Filters
If you’re targeting more specific types of Diamond cards, you can use position-specific filters. Certain positions, especially Centers, tend to command higher prices. Here's how to make the most of this filter:
How to Use the Position-Specific Diamond Filter
Set the Position to Center (or any other position you prefer): The key here is to set the position filter to Center, Power Forward, Small Forward, or any position that generally sees higher-value cards.
Adjust Maximum Buyout: Set your maximum buyout to the price of the cheapest Center card. Currently, Greg Monroe serves as a baseline for Centers, priced around 32,000 MT.
Target Cards Priced Below 25,000 MT: Sniping cards like Monroe or other high-value players such as Wilt Chamberlain or Jaren Jackson Jr. for prices below 25,000 MT allows you to flip them for a solid profit.
3. Abracadabra Filter
The "Abracadabra" set is one of the latest themed packs introduced in NBA 2K25. With several valuable cards in the set, such as Detlef Schrempf and Jonathan Kuminga, this filter can provide lucrative sniping opportunities, especially right after a pack drop.
How to Use the Abracadabra Filter
Set the Color to Diamond and the Theme to Abracadabra: This will narrow your search to only cards from the Abracadabra set.
Adjust Maximum Buyout: Typically, Detlef Schrempf is the cheapest card in this set, priced at around 25,000 MT. Adjust your buyout until you find cards within this range.
Target the Following Cards:
Detlef Schrempf: Sniping at 20,000 MT or below is ideal for flipping this card for around 25,000–30,000 MT.
Jonathan Kuminga: Buy Kuminga for 25,000 MT or less, then resell for approximately 30,000 MT.
Coby White: This card can be sniped for 30,000 MT or lower, and resold for around 33,000–35,000 MT.
This filter works best shortly after a pack drop when players are unloading cards at lower prices. Be quick, as prices may drop rapidly as more cards flood the market.
4. Amethyst Cheapest Filter
Amethyst cards may not offer the highest individual profits, but they are highly consistent and can be a great starting point for new players. The Amethyst Cheapest Filter allows you to pick up these cards for low prices and resell them quickly.
How to Use the Amethyst Cheapest Filter
Set the Color to Amethyst: This will filter out all other rarities, leaving you with only Amethyst cards.
Adjust Maximum Buyout: The cheapest Amethyst cards are currently priced around 6,500 MT, with cards like Brevin Knight leading the charge. Adjust the buyout filter to identify cards priced below this threshold.
Target Cards Priced Below 5,000 MT: For quick resale, target Amethyst cards priced at 5,000 MT or below. These are easy to flip at a profit.
Pro Tip: Amethyst cards from earlier Series are also undervalued. You can often snipe them for 3,000–4,000 MT and flip them for a solid profit as their prices have recently surged in value.
5. Pink Diamond Filter
Pink Diamonds are some of the highest-tier cards available, and with their high value, they provide some of the most profitable sniping opportunities. Here’s how to make the most of the Pink Diamond Filter:
How to Use the Pink Diamond Filter
Set the Color to Pink Diamond: This narrows your search to only Pink Diamond cards.
Adjust the Minimum Buyout: On PlayStation, set your minimum buyout to 500 MT. On Xbox, you won’t need to enable this.
Search for High-End Snipes: Focus on high-value players like Steph Curry, Gilbert Arenas, and Jaren Jackson Jr. These cards can fetch substantial profits when flipped.
Observe Market Trends: Monitor the prices for 20–30 minutes by searching for Pink Diamonds with a minimum bid of 100,000 MT. This will give you a better sense of the market and help you spot profitable snipes.
6. Eastern Conference Filter
For those looking to narrow down their sniping searches further, the Eastern Conference Filter can be a game-changer. This filter allows you to target players from the Eastern Conference, which may reveal snipes that are often overlooked in more general filters.
How to Use the Eastern Conference Filter
Set the Conference to Eastern: This will focus your search on the Eastern Conference only.
Set the Color and Maximum Buyout: Depending on the card rarity you're targeting, set the color to Diamond, Pink Diamond, or any other rarity and adjust your maximum buyout.
Sniping Opportunities: Cards that belong to Eastern Conference teams are often undervalued or overlooked, and this filter can help you discover profitable snipes exclusive to these teams.
Pro Tips for Effective Sniping
Stay Updated on Market Trends: Always check the latest prices of high-value cards. Prices can change rapidly, especially right after new pack drops.
Be Patient: Sniping is a time-consuming process. Spending 30 minutes to an hour on a filter can yield significant profits, but you need patience.
Quick Resell: Flip cards as quickly as possible to avoid price drops. New cards tend to lose value quickly as the market stabilizes.
Leverage Pack Drops: Pack drops are the most lucrative time for sniping. Players often list cards at low prices without realizing their actual value.
