I found this dmo. some time ago amongst old files, had trouble getting the right version in order to watch it, once I did, I decided to upload it on youtube

So if anyone wants to know how was it to play TOP 5 players, 4 years ago, you can check this video out

Gameplay was different then, and other players did play different than this, there were volleyers, counter, defenders, however both of us, Serena and myself perfected this style of play of Power Baseliner.


It's a full match between Serena Williams (MKD) also known as Victor and myself...


We were both playing almost identical styles, so it was a tight battle, especially exciting at the end of the 3rd set.

I entered this match after winning Davis Cup, where I defeated Voja and JJ, and after winning opening tournament in Chennai where I turned around match against Roger Federer (Florian) from 67 24 and BP for Florian to 64 63.

However, Viktor won last 3 matches between us, including one at ATP World Finals, 2-6, 4-6.


I remember in this match, that I was sturggling, you maybe cannot see that on replay, but first two sets and beginning of third, I was extremely struggling to stay in a point. But my movement was getting better after each passing game and at one point I got so focused on the match that I still remember the feeling of 100% concentration on what was I doing then, I don't think I ever was so conentracted on something before and after that match

Here is topic from that tournament, you can check what we said after the match...however, if you plan to watch full match or don't want to spoil result, see this link after match...you can also check if my memory was correct while I was describing match on forum

PS. There are some issues with viewer and recordings, nothing serious, but don't be surprised if you here some wierd noise in background or player play 2 points without a ball

Was tiredness on for this match? I see acceleration more or less every shot...

There was no tiredness then, ever Power Baseliner had max. 7 or 9 (i think 9) accelerations per point depending on % of stamina...however players were also quicker...so you had to tie several really well placed acceleration shots in order to get a winner...as you can see, we often play very long points

Althought it seems that we are using non stop accelerations, we really are not, often those shots are normal shots or spins, they just seems accelerated, cause we are trying to set up opportunities for accelerations to do real damage...95% of running parallels that I made are normal spined shots...and he is waiting for the ball onto rise, very close to the court, so it just seems as acceleration

But generally yes, we used alot of acceleration shots each point...some just seem like they are, but really are not

All i see is game favoring the acceleration spam . Nowhere near real life tennis for me . I hope that is fixed in TE4
