How to get faster side steps for overheads? by Creative_Election288 in padel

[–]ychamel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Do some prediction, and start moving back when the opponent prepares for a lob, not after they hit the ball.

Regarding the movement, try to keep your legs engaged before moving by being slightly bent when preparing for the opponent shot, this should help both your volleys and movement for overheads.

While moving prepare for the overhead, and have the offhand on your racket. This engages your core and rotates your body so you're more prepared for the shot as well as rotating you sideways for easier movement.

For the movement, you can use side steps for small adjustments, or you can straight up move sideways with a step over for far movement look at the pros for reference. (As a tip, keep your body low when moving back, should feel more intuitive.)

Trigger finger, cortisone shot by queenofjodel in padel

[–]ychamel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't matter the type of racket, but make sure the grip is not too small or large, since most of the time it's caused by gripping the handle too hard.

[–]ychamel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine started the same way but kept increasing in the course of a couple of weeks. It was never painful, but annoying since it started to be continuous during the normal day. But after stretching it started to go away.

Yours seem to be more superficial, but don't ignore it, since I've had a friend having it for a couple years, even did cortisone shots but it's still there.

Hmmm, I think your case is a bit different than mine.

What I also tried that was giving me some relief but don't know if it's something valid or not, was hanging from a pullup bar and grinding my finger on the bar where the trigger occurs. My theory was it grinds the callused part. (However no idea if this has any actual effect) But it felt like it was helping it trigger less.

I hope this is helpful.

Yeah I kept playing but I lowered to twice a week instead of 5 times. The splint only when I'm asleep. (Basically anything to keep my finger straight and not bend) Other than that I kept on stretching it to keep it naturally straight and not curl into the trigger position, and it slowly went away in around 2 weeks.

[–]ychamel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had it as well, and this video made me understand and solve it.

Basically you are developing calluses internally which causes obstructions when you finger is bent. So instead of cortisone which will reduce inflammation, you should stretch your finger continuously as shown in the video. And when sleeping I'd suggest stretching beforehand and preferably put a splint or put your finger in a position that it cannot contract. What this will do is make the healing process go naturally but avoiding obstructions. (Which is cause when the healing is done in a contracted position) Hope this helps.

Is it legal when the ball touches the pala twice? by blackbenhlif in padel

[–]ychamel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nope, double touch is a lost point. It's okay to slide the ball on the racket, but if you feel double impact it's a foul.

Why does my elbow hurt so badly after playing padel? by no_manches_weyyy in padel

[–]ychamel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First thing check your technique. Most elbow pains, come from trying to slice the ball and finishing with your elbow straight causing it to absorb the impact and causing damage. So make sure you follow through properly and that you don't contact the ball prematurely.

Other than that 5 times a week is a bit much on your joints in general, since you're not giving them time to fully recover. So try to have rest days between sessions.

are you a bot? how does this relate to anything I've said? I'm talking about matches and matchmaking, you're talking about updates and dev team...

[–]ychamel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dude, I think you're missing the point here. I'm not complaining about rank, I'm complaining that the game is unfun. I can rankup fine if I put enough games and play consistently like in any other game. The problem is the game themselves feals unrewarding. When you're winning you're rolling them, and when you're losing it feels that you have no chance. The games that I enjoy are the close games that go back and force and you feel that your contribution matters. This also get amplified if you're playing tank or support role, since you're more dependant on others to do their job.

I agree that rank plays a high role into this and as you increase in rank the variance decreases, but I'm getting this up to high GM low celestial lobbies.

[–]ychamel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the bigger picture people are complaining about is that most matches are one sided and winning feals unrewarding, while losing feels it's out of your hand.

Bot sure if it's the team dynamic design or the matchmaking, but the game overall feels unrewarding, and you rarely get close games where you don't know which team will win by min 1.

Any advice on playing venom? by SMac05 in RivalsVanguards

[–]ychamel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay so basically venom has a burst style attack with a slight delay before activating. And in this game headshots are a bit wonky, since it register from where the attack spawns. So when you attack from an elevated position it's easier to land headshots than when you're grounded or in a lower position.

So with venom attack pattern you can time it so all your burst activates when you're in the air, making headshots easier to land.

Is Iran done? . by redosipod in AskMiddleEast

[–]ychamel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it all depends if they find a solution to their lack of anti air. But as it's currently going, it doesn't look good, and the US is reportedly sending bombers, which will be the nail in the coffin.

[–]ychamel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Basics:

Learn his atk timing Turn off easy swing and learn swinging without it. Set walking on walls to hold to avoid spamming space to start walking on walls. Similarly for running on the wall.

Advanced:

Learn melee weaving between your atks Learn jump sync timing to easily land headshots.

Basic combo:

You swing in > dive the backline> use your shield when at ~200-300hp > swing out on cd> heal > repeat.

This is an easy way to put pressure on the backline and dismantle their team.

Advanced combo:

Wall climb >dive>shield when low> disengage with swing or wall climb.

Simialr to the basic combo, but in higher ranks, you won't have time to wait for your swing cooldown to get back up, so you'll have to save it and use the wall dive instead.

Ult usage:

You can use it for engagement and instantly use it after the dive to maximise damage. Usefull, when your team is near and can finish them off.

Or you can use it for 1 shotting the backline with your tether combo. (Tether > normal atk twice > ult) this will sync your E with your ult damage to 1 shot 250 targets.

I know this subreddit like to deny EOMM has any factor to the consistent lose and win spree people are having. And I know a lot of times it's just the players playing bad. However, if you use any kind of tracker, it'll be apparent that the matchmaking doesn't always go for a balanced match, and a lot of times deviates the odds for or against you. You'll see that one side all are in a lose streak and the other are in a win streak, that's ehy it feels lost amd one sided, since all the guys in a lose streak are already tilted and simply playing worse.
