Roland Garros 2012

lost vs Otlichno 6-4 4-6 6-7 3-6 in quarter final. Great battle, Otlichno deserved the win because played more aggressive than me and i don't utilized important key points. After won first set in the second i have 3 break points but don't converted and lost 4-6. The third set was the key set, on 5-4 for me i had 2 set points but i played with fear and Otlichno comeback until 6-6.In tie break he played better than me and i was thinking to my 2 set point and feel that i would't been lucky. In fourth set, with break and controbreak arrived to 3-5 for him and i have 2 break point for the 4-5 and i played as a girl, not aggressive and i lost the game and the match.I close the match with 3/13 break points converted.My opponent during the match can returns every time better and one of my weapon was cancelled. Moreover this time he served better and forced the second and hits many double faults. Otlichno deserved the win for his attitude to attack. If i can say one thing, though i don't can explain well cause my bad English, i try to say that with new build i feel strange situation on court, my defensive attitude has been canceled because i fell that the rallies are concluded in few hits, and many time Otlichno hit the points with a counterattack in my wrong foot. my players and his, moved slowly after return hit and for me that play defensively, this new set up was negative. I can't think how we play on grass, if clay is so fast!Another thing, how much tha stamina goes down!!! But i like this, more realistic but djoko have high stamina with berdich and others char with low stamina they can't play well.
congrats to Otlichno and good luck for the tournament!
P.s. djokovic vs djokovic one week ago was impossible! Today 0 desync! Elias i love you !

[Otlichno]

Won my match against Elio 4-6 6-4 7-6 6-3.

It was an extremely high quality match, both of us hitting winners and serving well throughout. In the first set, we both held serve until 5-4 where he broke me get the set. I double faulted a few times, but I like to take risks off the second serve, so that was expected.

The second set I broke straight away and let 2-0, he broke back to get to 202 and we held serve until 4-4 where I broke him and served for the set.

The third set was a huge struggle. He had 2 set points at 5-4 on my serve, and he was so close to getting them. But some clutch play on my part was able to bring it back to 5-5. And then I got the tiebreak.

After that in the 4th set, we were both pretty low on stamina, and the general pace of the match got allot slower. At this point, the majority of the rallies were long, but ended in errors. We both broke early in the set, and then held serve, until 4-3 where I broke him and served for the match. He had two break points when I was serving for it, but I was able to win those points. Over all a very very good match, we both played very well.

Glad to finally be able to beat Elio, something I couldn't do in our 2 previous meeting.

[Ugadalou]

Great win Otlichno,you seem to be the hottest player on the tour right now!You're certainly on good form to beat eliomelma.

Ugadalou vs RussianBoy 6/2,6/2,6/4 .I was feeling my serve incredibly well today and RussianBoy seemed to have trouble reading it.In his service games I got enough balls in-play to be able to apply pressure and break.The match didn't have many long rallies but I think the inertia addition is in the good direction (realisticly-wise),it just need a little tweaking.
Stats:

Don't have much time to post, it is late, but here is the result of the Roland Garros SF between me and Otlichno:

Otlichno vs. VMoe86, 6-7, 7-5, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3

A very close match, just four points difference in total. He played a bit better than me when it mattered. In the third set I remember 0-30 and a sitter which I netted due to moving badly -- would have given me triple break point. Still had double break point, but god is he a good server. Then I was broken and lost that set. But I felt he was better (especially more aggressive), a bit, but better. Good luck to anyone playing him in the final.

By the way, I'm stunned how great it is to play online against someone far away with no apparent lag. Great job manutoo!

Here are the stats:





Always funny how stats are bit different from the match log and after running the .dmo file.

Yeah this game plays really well now even with a high ping , as long it's stable, thats very nice, a great improvement in comparison to previous TE versions.

Don't forget to post the stats screen if you have them, and/or .dmo, just curious to see again the ridiculous short rallies ratios < 5 hits on clay ..

[VMoe86]

I've added now the stats screens. Blue Clay tennis. Indoor Tennis from the 90s. On to grass now.

[Elias]

lol.

135 rallies < 5 hits out of 216 garbage

average second serve speed 122mph

ugadalou vs russianboy : 68 rallies out of 77 < 5 hits , 0 rallies > 10 hits

Poor clay.
We'll have do to something about this as soon as possible.

do you like playing roulette btw ?

I'm willing to test with Auto Positioning: Auto Positioning on Medium and controls on Elite. Just a guess, haven't even tried it offline against the AI, yet, but maybe this will save us lots of balancing questions regarding power, speed etc. Too tired now, desperate for some sleep now.

I'm not a fan of guessing games and prefer situations in which I can calculate something, honestly. But the thrill of such a guessing is exciting, I must admit. Just not all the time, I want more variety and it won't be better on faster surfaces.

Yep we'll test it, still i really prefer the idea of tweaking power, shouldn't be that much difficult, we'll just have to start by testing some chars with lower ball speed, like Ferrer - Gasquet match-up, and i guess the gameplay will be much more enjoyable rally/guessing wise. we just have to find the average right ball pace along with this movement scheme, then we'll be able to rebuild power/spin around this pace among the roster.

i'll start some tests then we'll try this in the next days.

9 double faults ^^
80 winners !!

Ouch, what a match it should have been ! GG Otlicho, coz Vmoe is really great recently.

I've lost 6-4 6-4 6-4 against the n°1 by the way. A close match where he used my rare errors to win my service : he was over realistic

On my side, I was often at 30-a on his service, but he always made the good choices and at the end I only had 1 break point occasion : third set, 5-4 for him on his serve (30-40).

These last points were the craziest of the match, I made his stamina go really low and I thought I was really near coming back, and make the match different. But he insured the victory with some amazing passings gg to Kyuujy

Best match since now in Te tour!!!

[kyuuji]

Actually it's 6/4 2/1 for me against Ugadalou
We stopped cuz they were a TE server problem.

[kyuuji]

Otlichno def. Kyuuji 7/6(9) 6/7(3) 4/6 7/6(6) 8/6

Otlichno the man ! I knew this match would be very hard as he was using N.Djokovic, well of course I'm sad but I'm very happy about that match, it was a very long and interesting match, we had some LONG and GREAT points, the 1st two sets we both kept our serve till the tie break, then 3rd set I manage to make the break and finally win 6/4.
4th set I was leading but he manage to debreak and finally win the tie break 7/6.
5th, well we both play our best and he was much better, he was dominating all the points, couldn't do anything because of my stamina, he was too good and finally he broke me at 7/6.
Congrat dude, I wish to play you again in wimbly to get my revange
GG and GL for next dude, btw I've got my first lose dafuq in a GS..
