Yes i can cause its UNREAL! In real tennis Roddick dont serve 230 kmh shots on the first AND second serve. It is also possible to hit the lines constantly if you know hot to serve with 98/98 setting. Thats the main problem about the one pony trick players.

I played against one of these guys last week and its was a close match due to his 98/98 setting and outwide serves. I beat him in the tie break and he asked for a rematch. I agreed but only with real tennis players. So we did the rematch and he losed 3/0 3/0 without any chance.

In conclusion 2k Sports must turn down these unrealisic power+serve settings cause it just to easy to be competitive by just only practicing your serve...

95% of all guys in wt plays with power and serve settings...even welch players have more skills as these one pony trick guys.

It was my first match. I never play with this setup. I wanted to show how unfair is to play like this. Sorry that was you in my way...

So its final for me. Whoever is a good top spin 4 player and plays the whole time with 98 power & serve is a CHEASER! HE MASTERS THE SERVE AND HIS SERVES ALL THE TIME IN THE CORNER LINES THAT MAKES THE GAME UNPLAYABLE AND THE BREAK OF HIS SERVE IMPOSSIBLE...

If you think this is real tennis Mr Mods, then the tour is a fail...

It's when you serve from the opposite side of the court in order to get more angles on your serves. It's really lame :/

Haha careful mate, tramline servers are not of too highly round these parts! Our matches are unreal though, would be good to play a full ITST 3 setter against you, would probably be playing a while!

I can serve wide but am always concious to move my player close to the middle line because that is deemed a fair serve, whatever angles I get after that are just down to practice.

I like to mix up my serves because I realise that constantly serving wide can be considered cheesy, there's nothing I hate more than facing someone who always serves slow to the far side :x.

In keeping with the topic of the thread, I believe that anything approaching 100 either in power or serve is cheesy, that's why my stats are 91/90. It is a misconception that anyone with a big serve cannot play the game, I'd say my return game was at least as good, if all I had was a big serve then how would I break anyone and win matches?

Left handed, constant out wide serves from a wide position is the greatest cheese in my eyes, with serving

How do you get 80% when the poll shows 63% is beyond me.

98/98 guys can be easily defeated but in order to beat them you have to learn control shots. 98/98 was the hardest setup to play against for me because few months back I only used power shots. But now I learned control shots and I can beat 98/98 guys easily. You just have to mix up control shots and power shots against 98/98 very well and then the match is yours..

These days I m trying to play more welch guys to figure out how can I beat them. For now just seems impossible to beat welch

I play with control shots but their aces are killing me. I play them with welsh but i am always losing points in crucial moments and i am losing in details...
