Help me decide!

Ok,i dont know what to do anymore!
As some of you know im usuing an all arounder, i was and still am very happy about it but it simply doesn't work! i mean...IT DOESN'T!
all arounder is the weakest against S&V, same for OFB and DFB , it really doesn't work to play as an all arounder in this stupid game when 99% of people are using other styles which are not even balanced. with the speed of 40 and stamina level at the lowest the same heavy balls comes at you non-stop.
dont get me wrong im not crying for power guys, since i got some idea about how to counter them, i haven't lost to any yet (except my ITST opponent which was a smart power guy) so im not complaining about that.
my records on WT and here on ITST (9-8 ) considering i mostly played against high ranked guys, is very acceptable and the fact that im using an all arounder gives me a good feeling that im a decent player but all arounder simply doesn't work against some baseline guys and its really bothering me.
i bought this game to play like Roger! thats what i love to do and what i've been trying to do and i think i had some success, i always tried to win with style (beautiful) , but at this point..i have to choose between my favorite style or using a player so i can counter so many players much easier!
don't know whats the point of it cause video games are for fun and once you don't like it you should quit it, i've had fun but it really annoys me sometimes, as i said before i takes video games very seriously and its really making me angry sometimes that the goddamn game is so unbalanced and unreal! so its actually bothering my nerves...so i need you to help me decide...i quit or i play with a OFB/DFB like most of other people, with the difference of ME not enjoying it.
you may see me like an idiot cause there is no point to play if you dont enjoy...but i can't simply decide, i like tennis, i like this site and its challenges..so im not sure!

Continue and enjoy your favorite style, my two cents.

maybe you could use a balanced baseliner with offense and defense points, and keep your style and still finish lots of points at the net if you are really experienced in the all rounder style it might work.

suprise serve and volley or netplay finish him can work with low volley skill when the tactic and timing is good.

i understand your frustration but it s how the game works, cant have all the advantages with same performance, but maybe they should boost the coachs that require 8/6/6 etc.

other option is wait for the sim tour, the staff focuses on making every style of play competitive, and this includes all rounder. and you can be sure making things balanced is theyr main concern.

I would say the same thing, to wait for the sim tour. But if you wanna play liker Roger by now, try a more offensive formation with Grody Coach, like 0/15/5 or 0/16/4. It will help you more from the baseline and you still have the chance to attack the net if you are a good volley player.

About the lack of speed, you won´t have any problem if you know how to use the magic R1 button. These are very good setups for experienced players. Maybe this is the reason that I didn´t have much sucess with it... hehe

Roger doesn't play as an all arounder, but as an offensive baseliner who comes sometimes to the net. So if you want to play like him, just get a great right hand, an average backhand, and a great serve.

If you still want to play all-round, add more to your baseline and less to your serve and volley. If you have at least like 52 volley, you should be fine. This way you can keep up with those baseliners, but you have just enough to finish the point. Or just wait for the SIM tour.

Okay then , no point to wait for Sim if its coming soon, i continue with the same player a bit longer or i'll do what Zooloo and PerfectAce said,i will give it a try and see how im able to pull off a good performance with an OFB and i'll try to to add my own style into it. hope it works.
thanks guys for all the answers, can't wait for the sim tour!

C4iLL, watch Roger's 2004-2008 performances(especially 05-06) and you will see he is a volley monster! he is or was an all arounder(but all stats at 80-90 , except his backhand ) but he lost his volley skills by not using it often anymore because of slow courts and generally the new generation of tennis.
