great!!!I am happy for u

hope in a final with Alex

[alex13090]

Alex Def Oshiee 7-6 (9) 6-3 6-4


First set:

No break points on either side, may have been one for him though I'm not sure.
We start off the tiebreak, and on my serve at 8-8 he goes up a minibreak and then must serve for the set 8-9. I save the set point, and go up another mini break to make it 10-9, and close the set at 11-9.


Second & third sets:

Strings of good returns allowed me to have a few break points early in each set, which I converted.

[petrelli83]

this final will be great!I'm sure

Good luck to both

[fedfan]

Good luck Coke I hope u do it. Your proof of someone who has improved out of sight playing ITST!

[Likos86321]

Good luck to both coke and alex, may the best man win

[coke4]

Its going to be very tough.
Akex has beaten 2 GS winners in TOMO and Oshiee, aswell has Apathetically Kjuuji and Maximp.
I hope its a tight match, having said that i wouldnt mind a 6-4 6-2 6-4 won
I say its pretty 50/50 for who wins this

Dam I wish I found this site earlier. It pretty much was done out of luck after playing a few games against tomo (who royally destroyed me as my cp and my faithful rafa lol).

Since I'm new anyone want to tell me stats of these guys. Although I know that stats won't decide it just wondering.

[Rob ITST]

Basically, it's like this:

In the regular tour, all stats are limited to between 40 and 90. Some people may give you a hard time for using what are called "stacked" setups - usually 90 on 3 or 4 of the following: fh/bh/power/serve/speed and 40 on 2 or 3 of stamina/volley/return. But these are well within the rules, and you'll probably have a hard time competing if you don't use something like that.

For people who don't like the stacked setups, we have the Sim tour. On the Sim tour, all the setups are selected from a list of 18 pre-determined characters. These characters all have strengths and weaknesses, and while some may match up favorably against others, they are all pretty well balanced. Read the Announcement posts and the Rules on the main site for all the information you need about the Sim tour.

[AUSSIE_FABS]

Thanks I already looked at the rules and stuff though. Finding it hard to chose what guy to chose for sim, but I'll start as a stacked player in regular as already got a guy which fits the rules so works out nicely.

Leaning towards bishop but didn't you just recently make him have less power .

[jayl0ve]

Yeah but since the changes are for everybody, I personally don't think it matters. As long as everybody has to deal with the same list of characters, it's all good to me...

Hey Aussie, id like to add that IMO, if you want to really improve, DONT use a stacked player

[Rob ITST]

I agree with Coke. Using stacked may be the best way to win, but using non-stacked is the best way to improve your skills.

[SoundfSilence]

Using a non stacked against a good player with stacked is no fun either

[Rob ITST]

Using a non stacked against a good player with stacked is no fun either

It is if you win.

Nothing gives me more pleasure than beating a WT 100/100/100 player with a sim player.

If this is true, you gotta try some things
