About Symbiote

Venom is the inspiration for Symbiote, a Small Forward billed as a defensive playmaker, good for catching shots and loose balls. It was released on 23 August 2025 as the other half of the Spider VS Symbiote event, rolled at 0.25% per spin (1% with Lucky Spins), and is now flagged unobtainable. The Black Market can sell it, usually alongside Spider, for $3,000,000 Cash.

Its base moves are all tendrils. Tendril Dribble (C, 60 seconds) latches onto an opponent in front, ragdolls them, then dribbles where the camera faces. Tendril Snatch steals the ball from hands or after a shot and bypasses I-Frames, but a dribble can beat it, and the same goes for Tendril Pull. The awakening, WE ARE VENOM, needs you off the ball and puts you in the suit, unlocking Parasite, a stun on the opponent you look at (40 seconds), Tendril Swing and RAHHHHH, a dribble through random players into a dunk.

The Darkness zone makes you faster with the ball, with bigger dunk range and one extra dribble. The wiki's meta note calls Symbiote one of the best styles in the game for stealing and dribbling.
