Overview
This guide focuses on setter styles in The Spike.
Introduction
All setters have their own unique styles which hugely influences how a setter plays when played by an AI. There are a total of 9 different styles. They are:
- Daring
- Defensive
- Careful
- Speed Devil (All Speed)
- Speed Devil (Careful)
- Higher & Higher
- Aggressive
- Arrogant
- ???
Vocabulary/Terms
- Four/s: An open set from the setter, made for the WS.
- Quick/s: A low and fast set from the setter, made for the MB.
- Dump/s: A play by the setter where the setter directly attacks into the opponent’s court instead of setting the ball.
Styles
Daring is a style which the setter will prefer using quicks 65% of the time. A somewhat ambiguous style personally.
Defensive is a style which the setter will prefer fours the majority of the time. Great if you want to practice as a WS.
Careful is a style that is very similar to defensive, but has a higher chance of giving quicks compared to the defensive style.
Speed Devil (All Speed) is a style which the setter will give quicks 99% of the time. Great if you wanna kick back and let your MB do all the work.
Speed Devil (Careful) is a style which the setter will give quicks 85% of the time. A bit ambiguous in my opinion.
Higher & Higher is a style where the setter will give fours very high. Great if you have a tall WS with strong jump and attack stats.
Aggressive styles tend to dump the ball more if you upgrade their Attack stat. You might want to prioritize their Attack stat instead of Speed.
Arrogant is a style which is the complete opposite of the Speed Devil (All Speed) style. 99% fours. This style is only available to Heo Jae Ho, the setter you have from the beginning. Jae Ho is also the name of one of the developers, HUNYA.
??? is a style which when the setter dumps, the setter will spike the ball unlike any other styles. The opponent AI blockers will not react to this. With maxed out attack and jump stats, a setter of this style may score better than you.
Conclusion
This concludes the setter styles guide. I hope this guide helps you find out which setters you want in your team.
