To be honest, a lot of left handers have wristy forehands that can break down under pressure. For a right hander, a good cross court backhand or inside out forehand can be very useful. Whenever I play lefties, the first thing I do is probe their forehand. In a lot of instances, that's actually the weaker wing.
Lucky for you that you don't meet any lefties who take advantage of their leftyness. Lefties who don't have good forehands nor have a good out-wide (ad-side) serve are very much at a disadvantage when playing tennis. They are essentially playing a righty's game style at a higher difficulty.
Good Video" and I agree with you on the Backhand Rally Ball down the Line... Here is what I see; I call it the "Fielder's Choice" an opportunity missed by habit... After the serve goes in the server has a forehand fielder's choice" he can roll that ball to the duce court but he went crosscourt out of habit because he is use too hitting into the righties backhand over & over again" He gave the lefty the forehand into his backhand corner and the lefty will naturally take the advantage of the weaker side. This pattern exists in many shot combinations
As righthanded players we can do the same to the lefty that they do to the righty, but our habit and pattern is to direct most of our offense to the add court of our fellow right-handed players like us! Even simple patterns and habits are hard to change. A weak slice serve into the duce will get killed against your righthanded buddy but is effective against the lefty" or a sliced body serve to start off the point and resist the HABIT to go Open Court Add to early in the point... I play with a lefty often and I give him that forehand to backhand corner more often than he takes it from me" especially when I've been playing righties a lot...
Your original question was hella confusing. This is better: "As a lefty, what strategic shots can I use that will prevent my opponent from effectively countering or anticipating my play?"

@@dcr5401 Good insight on how we fall into a habitual patterns against righties. Hard to break the habit against lefties!
Im a lefty what shot can I make to not make my opponent use this shot to hit this shot?
For lefties, you need a good forehand cross, backhand down the line, or what Nadal loves to do - run around his backhand to hit a forehand inside-out.
