What a shame! I did that and I couldn't achieve what I wanted.
My goal was to do a passing shot like nadal does. But not just a passing shot, but the ones with "Banana" spin. Here is an example of that shot (it's the winner strike at the end by nadal.

Here are the requirements for it:
Secret strikes :
to do a topspin strike with a side effect : press B1, then B1+up, then B1+down.
That's 3 buttons for just one shot. I definitely can't do that in a high pressure match with less than a second to strike my next shot. I just wanted a bit of shortcut to make it easier. I combined up+b1 to Q. Then in the practice I tried down+Q.
To my disappointment it didn't work.
Man that was such a discovery! Buried at the bottom of the documentation.
