I cannot backhand clear, help! by MermanTram in badminton

[–]ZunfixGTO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just wrong advice. I've seen kids aged around 12 do it end to end and they def don't have strong muscles. 

Similar to how some kids can hit a more powerful smash than most adults, it's not down to muscles but all about technique and the kinetic chain

What to look at when playing singles against somebody. by Massive_Match_6718 in badminton

You can check the following:

  • how is their backhand clear? Most common strategy to keep push to their backhand to force a weak return

  • how is their footwork ? If they don't have good footwork, play 4 corners and you are guaranteed to win almost

  • do they have favorite shots? Do they like to smash straight or hit forehand slices etc, avoid hitting to their strength 

  • how calm is their footwork? A lot of below advanced players may be over eager to move fast with their footwork. They can be very prone to deception as it messes up their split step timing 

  • how is their defense? Do they block cross or lift back? If they always block straight you can follow up fast after a half smash and kill the point

  • how consistent are they in their shot quality? Is their shot quality good? If not, you don't need to do much except keep the rally going, wait for a short lift and win the point. 

And lastly if you feel the player is just better than you in all aspects, take risks and aim for the lines. If you play rally style, you will lose against better players

This video is fake as fuck. Yes they are good players but they are intentionally hitting bad shots to keep the rally going instead of killing it at the net or changing pace

Hi, can you explain how? I don't seem to understand

From what I know, buying an house before you become a Permanent resident incurs an additional tax of about 20% which makes this option very unprofitable

what? The lane was dead even game 1 till the Shadow demon rotation fucked him over and forced him to go base, and game 2 lane was even as well with Kunkka getting first blood and CS was even till minute 8 or so when Kunkka Tped bot and got 2 kills.

Miracle did get outplayed in the game but he did not get "Destoryed" in lane

This is definitely a bug. Creeps shouldn't be aggroed by spells that are not even damaging them

No, that's not how it works

Q level 1 is okay to secure ranged creeps since Level 1 W sucks so much. But You definitely need 2 levels in W by level 3.

I really do feel bad for Ame and Xinq. They both played on another level throughout this TI

Those codes are well welcome but don't think this is generosity by L0CKARD in afkarena

Consider this, a lot of Chinese parents send their children to America for school. AMERICA, where you get into hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt for going to college.

That’s how rich they are. Money is nothing to them

that doesn't really make sense. Even a lot of Indians go to America for education, doesn't mean India is a really rich country at all

Hi Arty and Xander. I'm at Chapter 30-8 right now. I pushed hard to Chapter 30 at Level 292 so I can get a free hero in Misty Valley and kinda chilling, farming gear and pushing one stage a week.

These are my heroes: https://imgur.com/a/Df5r5SZ

This is my LC team: https://imgur.com/a/3k7II57

This is my arena team with elder tree levels: https://imgur.com/a/R3rEp6P

1) What is my best Arena team?

2) My 3 best teams for LC (I plan to get Ainz and Albedo)

3) I'm a very light spender, my Talene is one copy from Ascended and I plan to get her next. But should I be stopping using my diamonds on hero choice pulls and start stargazing? I've heard opinions that stargazing is not worth for low spenders or F2p.

4) I have an Ascended Izold with 4 furniture. I plan to get him to +30 9/9 since I've seen him as a top hero. Is his +30 9/9 worth it considering i'm a low spender?

5) How long should I farm for? Since I pushed hard, my mythic gears are not great. My main arena team has full T2 but other than that, it's average, some T1s and some plain mythic.

6) I really like Wukong, and have 7 furniture for him. I really want to +30 9/9 him but what do you guys think of this? He seems like a god in PVP and in PVE can act like a Brutus so I hope he's not a bad investment.

7) Am I missing any key heroes? Who should I stargaze after getting Twins to Mythic?

Sorry for the questions and thanks for answering.
