2010 TS3 Sim Tours - The "List"

played djarvik last night---on clay...i was bishop and he was house....lots of rallies and tons of risking by me especially....both sets went to a tie break....7-6 and 7-6 house(djarvik) d. bishop(CHEDERER)my returns felt crappy with bishop even though he has 81 on return...it could be his 66 on power....now im to believe that power helps on returns....and bishop feels very small on the court.....anyways i ended up wth 47 winners to 42UE and djarvik had 24 winners and 25UE---he won a total of 100 points to my 96 points....i really like bishop but i wish he was either taller or had more power or even more speed...but then he would be unstoppable good game AL---weird thing is..i felt i could hold my serve better with Bishop opposed to nakamura...i have troubles holding serve with nakamura, but my returns are on steroids with nakamura and his 90 return...

Thanks man. Was a great match. Not as much quality as our previous encounter, but very intense. It is important to add that you were 0/8 on break points so yeah Bishop's return may not be as devastating or imposing as Nakamuras, but it gets the job done by consistently returning serves and placing them deep. Honestly, if you would made a few more risks and committed a few less errors you would close the match in 6-4 6-4. I could have played better as well, I felt at times I was too defensive for my 80 power, trying to mess with your timing.....it worked, but a lot of times I failed to convert and simply pushed the ball after getting an upper hand in a rally.

I agree with you, if Bioshop's power was above 70 - he would be literally unstoppable in the right hands.

i was 0 fer 8 really? ha ha...i didnt even look at that stat...WOW!!! that means i am collectively 0/17 on break points my last two matches....against emate i was 0 fer 9!!!! im an OFER!!!

i played Otlichno and won 7-6 6-2 the first set he held serve very comfortably and he was putting a bit of pressure on my serve .
2nd set my returns with l2 were starting to go in and put pressure on his serve and i started to risk off set up shots because my regular shots he kept getting and my serve was going in more so it was easier to hold serve

Just played 1 and a half matches with Djravik.

First one he won 6-0 6-3 I was not into it yet in this match, and he just outsmarted me and made it difficult for me to risk, which i was doing too much.

2nd match - was 6-6 and on serve in the tiebreak(i think) then we got disconnected. Much more even match. I risked, but could not convert on my 3 break points. He had 0/2 break points. In this match he hit a lot of errors - 17 errors compared to his 19 winners. I kept my errors less than 10 with very little risk.

Oh, we both played as House. Him with 90 bh and me with 90 fh. So it was strange. There were many down the line rallies between his forehand and my backhand.

I have a question for the host and who was involved in new sim player's creation...We've been playing this new sim setup for about 20days...
u told us that is possible that any setup can be adjusted,removed or added before the new season start.
now...did u decide to change something or do u think it's everything ok like it is?
only couriosity

[Rob ITST]

We're still talking about it. The more feedback we get from you guys the better. Tell us which characters you like/hate. Which ones you think are too weak/strong.

Personally, I still like it the way it is. I think there's good variety, and it seems like there isn't really one setup that's dominant.

[djarvik]

Indeed, we need feedback guys. I think mist of us went thru a good number of characters by now and have our favorites and least favorites. I would like you to post you top 3 players, 1 player you think is the weakest and any other suggestions on the 16 player roster. Do you have enough choice and vireity?
Season is about to start, so it is tome soon to cement the roster.

I'll start:

My favorite 3 are: Bucci, Thompson, House.
Weakest player: Lightman

I am very happy with the roster and don't want any player removed.


What do you think?

[Chederer]

my fav 3 are Nakamura, Lopez, and Bishop.

weakest players: Lightman, Gray, B. Jansen---i think they s/v guys created are good and can be executed depending on who is playing with them...but, unless you are a really good s/v player they stink IMO Striker is the only good one

Totally agree, Lightman is **** no matter who is playing with him, Jansen can work but you have to really commit to coming in every time or at least close to 90% on serve.

I'm now officially a big Bucci fan after getting pounded by both ched (nakamura) and picachu (bucci) while I was using striker. Made bucci and ran into pica again on WT, and I volleyed MUCH better with bucci just because I could actually get to the ball somewhere near the net.
He feels much faster than high 60's speed, and I'm feeling like I can risk much easier (especially LT) with the super high stamina.

[Chederer]

volley with Bucci?

[djarvik]

Yep. I am in Bucci camp as well. His setup works best for me and my LTs lol Thomson is not far of. House is good too, but maybe too much power

[Rob ITST]

I'm going to make a Lightman tonight. If anyone wants to play me, I know he can be a threat.

cough cough thanks for the match yesterday night cough cough


Rob doesn't count. We need someone with human reflexes.

[Chederer]

yea...i think house...is a bit stacked...80pwr 81stm 90bh...thats 2 orange 1 red 1 gold its hard to add more to something on him or take away from something because then he would be even better, but there is no real big weakness except the fh...nakamura has 1 red 1 orange and 1 gold..his weakness is serve volley but makes up for it with his return...62 bh is solid...i know 1 thing for sure with this new sim...if you cant risk u are going no where you have to risk to win as opposed to 90-40 you can sit back and play safe the whole entire time and have 3 unforced errors

[petrelli83]

I have tried all players...so...
my 3 best:Bucci,Bishop,Fussman(I like stamina player or great groundstroke player...doesn't matter power )

I don't think they are the better ones because there aren't dominant player.it depends on u.That's great!with only one exception:Cannon.He is the strongest one.I don't like him because he seems to be the old sim setup 79fh+79sv+89pw.His 51bh is not a weakness.It's not a real problem to control it with 86pw.
He is the only player I don't like and I don't want to use.I'd adjust him...
there are 3 power player:
-Bashmakov:fh & bh is his weaknees.
-House:sv is his weaknees.
these weaknees are important and make them balanced.
instead Cannon,to me,has not balanced stats.a player with great fh(or bh),great sv and great pw is almost unbeatable.

The roster has a great variety.but there isn't a counter puncher...I'm thinking of a player like ferrer(djarvik...your sim ferrer) or a defender(high stamina,speed and good groundstroke...like nadal or djarvik's simon sim)

my weakest player:grayto me,it's similar to nakamura but worst...I'd remove him and replace with another one.

so...I like 14 of 16 players...I'd change gray with ferrer,I'd adjust Cannon(I'd adjust him and not delete him because there must be pw player...even if i don't like them)and I'd add a defender.
