WTF counts as a "Swish"?
Been playing the Hoops mode, which I don't want to play AT ALL, but I have to if I want to finish my weekly challenges. Can't get the stupid "Get a Swish" challenge, even though I hit the stupid ball into the stupid net without hitting the stupid rim or the stupid backboard.

A Swish Goal is achieved if the ball enters the hoop without making contact with any part of the arena, the hoop or another player after your last touch.

Oh jeez, what a pain in the butt. Well thanks for the info. I figured I just had to avoid touching the rim or the backboard.

Aah, cool.
I can forget about the challenge then :D

I only need that one challenge, however, I hate Hoops, sooo.
However, I wanted to give it a try to complete the challenge but I can see the challenge was specifically made for Hoops players as the specs are nearly impossible for someone like me, who's garbage at Hoops.

Yea it sounds daunting for someone who doesn't want to play hoops but players like me who sucks in hoops (diamond) i still get swish goal very often. Like i would expect u to get it in 5 matches at most. Especially if u hate hoops so i am guessing your rank is much lower than ur skill level so u get easier chances cause less players bloccking ur efforts.

Just shoot the ball and quite quickly u get it just with luck. Rebounds especially are decent chances.

how to like hoops more:
just pinch the ball and watch it float into the goal

I know this is an old thread, but this isn't true. I did this and it still didn't count.

This is insane, or I'm just the unluckiest guy ever at hoops. I'm diamond in regular 2v2. I have one swish ever according to my stats. I don't normally play hoops, but I'm doing it for the challenge. I've now played it at least 5-6 hours and still haven't gotten a swish, according to the game. I did get a few that I thought might be but weren't. Then I got one that definitely was a swish according to any of the definitions I've read, including the one above, and saved the replay just in case. Sure enough, it still didn't count.
