I asked about this before Wimbledon where slices and dropshots are more useful. I picked llodra and nobody would let me return dropshots. What the actual ****? Llodra plays like that. Half the people here worship Federer. Your god plays like that. Dropshot returns. Short slice returns. Volleying and more dropshots. If I can't do those things how the hell am I supposed to take advantage of those. well advantages. So stupid.
Very simple: You can use drop + netrush, but not too much. Why? Because no one in real tennis can use it successfully a lot. No Llodra or Federer can do that. Federer playing his best maybe is winning 10 to 15 points by dropshot or drop + netrush. Dropshot returns are a rarity. About short slice there were discussions several times and that this shot is flawed.
It is not just about it not happening too much in real tennis. Look what one can do with a drop shot in real tennis, things that are not possible in TE, because you cannot flick off a drop shot.
Same goes for me for body serves, by the way. All the above, you can find agreement within management and most players on tour. With body serves, you cannot. It is as much abusing TE mechanics as anything above (wasn't saying the same about it earlier, but once you've used a bit yourself, it is so obvious
).

This season is technically over. I really hope these bullshit rules that restrict free flowing players like me, get thrown into oblivion.
I see several other players using drop + netrush, also at the top (basically any French player except C4iLL, pidzi, butcher), but nothing too much. I see pidzi and butcher hitting volley drop shots when they can. I've never heard them complaining about being restricted.
Uchiha Muss wrote:P.S. Just to backup what I said. It's not like I'm abusing those rules. And I'm guessing those rules haven't been updated in a year. Cheesy play, cheesy play. Like I want to hit balls indefinitely until one of us make error from the baseline. If people can't handle it, then it's their fault for being 1 dimensional.
You abused two clear rules (using gestures and spamming drop shots).
Oh, deal with it.
PS: Using Djokovic and trying all the above, it's like uber-cheesy.
