I have to go with Pica. I think the other players are good but nobody can hit all the shots ( all regular and alllll risk) like Pica does. I think I am an OK player and play OK against all of the players .
I might have some close matches with Pica but it is mostly because he takes a lot of risk by playing and there fore more UE. When it matters I am just his Toyboy and run behind the facts.

And good to see someone ate a humble-pie :-) :)

Trust me, the stick serve is not better. More powerful - yes. Since the update, I don't even try to serve with stick. Buttons are much more precise and more consistent too. But it is not a bad idea to be able to serve with stick, for times were you need that extra speed. I used to love the Spin that update removed. :(

Anyway, once I master the return, movement, timing, consistency, LT risk, RT risk, volley and my Nerves - I WILL BE UNBEATABLE! WATCH OUT! :twisted:

I absolutely hate playing someone who uses a lot of topspin, just to name a few:
retos11, Mack2300, DARKSTYLE86, Sherlock 117 and Anteros15.
I should be the one who dictates the rallies! :evil:

I have to disagree. The stick is more powerful, more precise, has more spin, isn't affected by lag, and you have more control over the speed. It's easier to hit good serves with the buttons, but you can't hit great serves unless you use the stick.

Yeah, I know what I have to do against you, have someone take the batteries out of your control, that will sure stop you! :) My biggest weakness is nerves and consistency. I know what I should be doing, but hands won't listen and do the opposite in fact. Then I get nervous, and it happens all over again. Got to get that brain-to-hands communication working. LOL

Drink some beer and convince yourself that you're not nervous- that you are a Tennis God and nobody can defeat you.

Drinking some beer only leads to drinking more beer. :)
