How to progress online?

Hi manutoo, I really enjoy the game and I would like to make a question. I'm playing the game since 2015, I have about 400 matches played online but lately I feel a bit stucked like I can't improve my game anymore. I see lots of players improving maybe not too much but you can still feel a good improvement in their game and I can't manage to level up. Sometimes it happened that I won a game against an opponent, maybe even with a good score but then he started winning next matches against me. What can you advice me to improve or where I can learn a lot about how the game's mechanics work? I actually play ITST mod so without aim and other kind of helps during matches
Best regards karalis1

Hello,

1) The better your reflexes and the better your eye-hand coordination, the higher your skill cap will be ; so some people won't be able to be great at the game or progress anymore, once they are capped by these natural limitations

2) Practicing a lot should help to reach your max

3) Be sure to master the aiming and understand how it works in all situations ; to do so, you can do warmup with the aiming preview, and stand in differents part of the courts, at different distances from the net

4) Understanding general tennis tactics will help too ;)

I recently noticed that I can't make short accelerations with forehand, the ball keeps going to the middle of the court. Could it be because I'm playing with keyboard so maybe I don't have much possibilities to adjust angles?

If you still didn't master the short acceleration (or some other strikes), the best is to practice them in warm up till you do.
