Can someone post all combinations please?

And one more thing, how to do a STRONG SHORT SHOT WITH FOREHAND? I can do it with backhand, but not with forehand. It goes in the middle. What is wrong?

Lefty and trying to short-accelerate to the right?

Try remapping that shot to just one key, had the same issue years ago and it was the only solution.

Nope, righthanded. Just trying to hit strong short forehand. That is called "short-accelerate?"

Edit: Thx man, remapping did the work :)

I am just afraid to use that shot. I am afraid that i will use it too many times in the match. Most of players with elo over 1500 are using that shot ALL THE TIME. I just like to play normal tennis. But know, at least i have a weapon to counter them :)

Hi Algo,

What do you mean by this sentence ?? remapping improves shots (easy to do) or not at all ?

It makes shots easier to hit, 3 buttons to 1 in this case and also prevents the problem marko279 was having.
