How to Start Your Journey - RH2 The Journey Wiki
Everything a brand new player needs to know: creating your player, understanding the hub, and playing your first game without getting lost.
Overview
RH2 The Journey is a competitive basketball simulator on Roblox by BAX Studio, currently in Season 5 (BETA). You start by creating your player, then grind games to raise your overall and unlock badges. This guide walks you through the first session so you never feel lost on the court.
Watch Season 5 in Action
This official-style overview shows the Season 5 launch and what the new systems look like in-game. Watching a match before playing helps you absorb the flow of offense and defense faster.
Create Your Player
After joining, you are dropped into the player creator. Pick your appearance, position, height, and wingspan first, because the build creator options shape your entire playstyle. Recommended builds from community staff are a solid starting point if you do not want to spend time fine-tuning attributes yet.
If you already know your role, jump into custom builds and allocate points across the five categories. A balanced shooting guard build is forgiving for rookies, while guards and point guards reward more experienced hands.

Early Progression Milestones
These are the rough milestones most new players hit in their first weeks. Progression speed varies with game mode and win rate, so treat the table as a compass rather than a clock.
| Milestone | What to Focus On |
|---|---|
| 60 Overall | Complete your build, learn the controls |
| 70 Overall | Equip your first badges and tune settings |
| 80 Overall | Master your sigs and upgrade core attributes |
| 90+ Overall | Grind the noob-to-pro route to 99 |
Systems to Learn First
The game has many systems, but only a few matter in your first week. Prioritize these four before branching out into advanced mechanics.
Shot Meter
Time your release on the green bar for consistent makes. Green timing is the single biggest skill gap.
Stamina
Sprinting and dribble chains drain stamina. Manage it or defenders blow by you.
Badges
Equip earned badges as soon as they unlock — they silently change how your build performs.
Off-Ball Space
Season 5 rewards spacing and off-ball movement. Win interactions to create room for your shot.
Common Rookie Mistakes
Almost every new player repeats these same mistakes. Avoiding them from day one will put you ahead of the majority of your lobbies.
- Ignoring wingspan: it directly trades defense for shooting stats
- Holding sprint the whole possession and arriving with no stamina
- Using a random jump shot instead of a signature animation that fits your Quickdraw level
- Never switching your green bar settings in the settings menu
