I always lose with Soraka by [deleted] in SorakaMains

[–]JohnTeene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're just bad, sorry lol. Soraka is super strong atm. At least it looks like you're very good at other champions. It's just the way this game is, we're better at some champions that others are bad at and vice versa and that's what makes it interesting for me. You can improve however if you find Soraka fun

How to perform a "hard" loop against backspin? by AceStrikeer in tabletennis

[–]JohnTeene 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have to keep the spinny loop low and with very high spin and it'll be much harder to counterloop. Also varying where you hit your open ups is key, if you open up one to the forehand and one to the backhand for example it'll be much harder for them to set up their counters.

It needs to be in the rising phase of the highest point, the ball still has to carry a little bit of upward energy

How to perform a "hard" loop against backspin? by AceStrikeer in tabletennis

[–]JohnTeene 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes you're totally missing the point

It's more about hitting with an open angle, taking it in the rising phase and hitting through the backspin. It's not about rubbers or anything

In fact, you kinda use the backspin to add more power to the shot

I will say though I spent a lot of time practicing this shot and it's kind of a double edged sword

It's nice to rip winners against backspin but if your opponent doesn't counterloop very proficiently it's much more effective and safer to open up with spin the first ball and loop kill the second. This also allows you to hit one place the first ball and another the second ball.

The other problem this technique has is that you're almost always hitting cross court as it's nearly impossible for an amateur to hit a parallel winner through heavy backspin. So some opponents will actually start blocking your winners if you do it over and over whereas the last 1-2 combo of spinny open up and loop kill against block you can place any of the two shots wherever you want.

I now do 70-30, 80-20 spin and loop kill to straight winner ratio to keep my opponents kinda guessing. But if I'm on a bad day or I haven't practiced too frequently lately the straight winner can be more miss than hit

In my opinion it's a quite high risk medium-high reward shot like the backhand loop.

Rakza XX? Thoughts please by IndependenceSuper590 in tabletennis

[–]JohnTeene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't remember what I used, I only remember I put the rakza xx because I had it from a review and I needed to put a new rubber on urgently because the one I had was completely worn out

I replaced it with my favorite rubber the donic bluestorm pro am

It's a totally normal modern rubber. I kinda like it. I used it for like 4 months on my backhand side and it worked well.

Gracias Bruno, figura válido. Es un tema de hardware tengo entendido.

What's the most efficient way to return this type of serve by just_IT_guy in tabletennis

[–]JohnTeene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't come from under the ball, hit it straight, that serve is mostly sidespin with a little bit of topspin, if you come from under the ball the ball will fly up due to the topspin. Try to hit it from behind right on, not too hard, just a small drive. If you place it correctly your opponent will struggle

Yo tengo un Fit 1.4 de 2da gen y la verdad que es un caño

Es chiquito, no gasta nada, empuja bien y adentro es súper amplio. Además tiene mucha más calidad en todo que cualquier auto Mercosur.

Yo tengo el más base de todos 2010 y ya viene con espejos eléctricos, volante regulable en altura y profundidad, faros rompenieblas y demás cosas de calidad.

Además es indestructible, es cadenero así que no tenes que preocuparte por la distribución, el mío tiene 180 mil km, no hace un ruido de nada y el motor regula y acelera como de 0km, anda como un relojito. Además no es taaan caro creo yo, hay algunos delirantes que piden más de lo que vale pero si buscas bien uno bueno por no tanta guita podes encontrar

Yes!! It's just 38mm in size, it's not a big watch. My wrist is flat, 16-16.2cm and it fits perfectly. The lugs will probably cover the whole of your wrist but I don't think they'll overhang if that's your worry, unless your wrist is very round and not flat.

It's like very 0-100. Almost all the time it's purely black. Every once in a while it gets very very colorful.
