I think top players (on the ps3) will only consider mahone out of the three.

Swatkowski's may just be considered by those using bishop who want to trade good return for good serve, but not many people used bishop in the first place. With the amount of good servers out there grissom's wing span and height will discourage most.

Great to have additional players in the roster though, I'll definetely be trying out Mahone.

Spot on Alex.

My thoughts are that Swatkowski is a "Fun" player, but, the strong serve and stroke make him more capable then other "Fun" players currently in the roster. He is also relatively fast.

Mahone is a good (a bit weaker) alternative to current Top Guns. Exactly what we wanted - another title contender.

Grissom is a unique player with lots of abilities. Some will be able to tap into them, while others will struggle. But I played with him some time and I can grantee you that we will be seeing him in SF and Finals. Maybe not as widely used as the Top Guns, but I am sure a few excellent Grissoms will emerge very soon.

Great to see newcomers on roster.Good job from you.

I love to see the low stats on serve,especially for Mahone, who give him something special with is forehand who certainly must be followed to go the net with good volleys stats.
The weak side is not a problem for a good player 50 is good.just try too exploit as much as you can your better shot.

Swtatkowski seems really good too.Great serve placement, and a big weapon who can really put you in good position in the rally.

I appreciate too the good stats for the 3 to speed and pretty good stamina.

They can really make great in next tournaments.If they dont love nightclub and beer after victory.

:D

I like that all 3 have good volley,speed and stamina.
they all seems very fun to use...they can be used in various way...
my favourite seems to be swatkowsky but i wanna try to play with grissom...he needs a lot of work to develop a winning game but at the end he could be very fun.
congrats hosts :wink:

Just seen the roster. Its amazing how many combinations of stats one can accomplish :shock:

I think I may of played the midget Grissom on the practice court last week, he took me to a tiebreaker in a one set warmup, very efficient! The guy is like a wall, once he gets his serve in and gets into a rally he is going to be VERY HARD to crack, especially talented players coaching him.

Looking more specifically at "Lech Swatkowski" he looks similar to my main man "Barry Cannon":

FH, BH, SV, RE, VO & ST = practically all the same

Power & Speed have been changed around with the slight difference being attributed to stamina.

He is like Cannon's younger brother, not quite as strong but quicker off the mark :lol: I reckon I will be creating this guy tonight to have as my second player...

...thing with me is that the one main stat that I need is serve, I hate white stat serves so that automatically rules out any player with that stat.

Well done DJ, Pica & Co....you got my approval :tu
They call me Baggy...

I am going to test out Grissom, he seems to be pretty balanced, he doesn't have a major strength nor weakness which is a summary of my game. With this guy I'd try to keep rallies long with the aid of his speed and stamina and finish at the net, we will see what happens!!!

btw: I'm going to name him " Go Get'em Grissom"
