IN-GAME TECHNIQUES
.
Shot Type
A topspin shot ( ) button is a regular shot with a forward spin (vertical spin). The ball moves fast, but its trajectory is high and bounces high. A slice shot (●) button has backspin. The ball moves slowly as if floating in the air. Its trajectory is low and bounces low. A lob shot (■/ +●) buttons has a high trajectory and goes over the opponent's head. It is used to hit the ball behind the opponent when the opponent
is at the net.

Shot Strength
You can hit the ball harder (faster) if you run to the ball fast enough to get ready for the shot. On the other hand, if you barely catch up to the ball and are not ready for the shot, you will not hit it hard. The strength of the shot changes with the height
you hit the ball at (shot point). It is difficult to hit the ball back hard if the ball has a low shot point, for example right after it bounced. The higher the shot point, the harder the shot becomes.
Smash
Wait for a high-trajectory ball to come down, and press /● button to hit a smash. Press *@$^ to control the ball path in the same way as regular shots.
Drop Shot
Press *@ after pressing ● button to aim at an area near the net. You can make a drop shot that falls near the net. It is effective when the opponent is at the baseline.
