was worth watching for that one backhand 😀

[@lukabosnjak3829]

Honestly, get away from defense. Attacks were really good, maby use what you learned from chopping to add some more variation to offensive game...

[@fredricklompero9779]

I agree. Most of his points from the match were from him being aggressive

[@WorthlessGeek]

Yes but thats true of most defenders playing vs any attacker that knows somewhat how to loop a chop

[@unathleticremi]

Pretty sure chopping is just because he found it interesting. I don't think he'd be on long pips if he was dead set on winning.

[@PongfinityPlus]

Destroyed 🙈🫣😂

[@JEDINE_DUKLA]

Day 1 seeing if Pongfinity replies

[@edizahmet3266]

professor Maynard as the beast once called him

[@kathychow1439]

you will have a chance later :)

[@musketor8641]

Spoiled 👀

[@Silverbeam2780]

Emil it was fun watching you give long pips a shot. Where you take your game now is up to you, but I hope you're glad you tried a different style

[@Afropalmen]

Emil should swap to a push pimps instead of a chop pips :D

[@mjolio]

Oh wow, just realized Emil has such a lastname, Rantatulkkila, which is kind crazy one even for Finnish norms :D Best would be if Emil would marry someone who would have similar doubleword for lastname, so he could have name double-double: Emil Rantatulkkila-Alakaakeli xD

[@daedalus5483]

Thanks for the great content. Would you guys mind telling us why you @Emil are not training / playing competitive anymore? And if you also don't mind ... what is each of your profession?

[@pongbotstore]

Go Emil! Pongfinity always brings the fun to table tennis. Tom's skills are impressive too. This match is a perfect blend of talent and entertainment! 👏🔥

[@blueheart9873]

Hey, if you feel like you find a difficult way to combine both offense and defence in a blade just use a very hard FH rubber.
A nice setup imo is:
Donic Defplay blade
JOOLA Dynaryz AGR (or any similar rubber, hard sponge with spinny topsheet is crucial)
Butterfly Feint Long 2/ Dawei 388D-1 (long grippy pips with a super soft sponge for maximum spin and dwell time)
The way you play right now might be better for an OX long pimple style. You did a lot of lifting, swiping and hitting instead of chopping

[@jeesolutionswithankit8208]

Who agrees that Emil is best in Aggressive playing style? Hit 👍

[@conanchan9033]

me. I have no idea why he is playing defensively now. Don't mean to disrespect his effort, but I think even at 70% level of his attacking style, he is still better than doing it defensively.

[@bentonxavier5094]

​@@conanchan9033 maybe he just enjoys it more. Since he's not a competitive player anymore it gives him more freedom.

[@NormandFabrice]

Why does Emil stopped playing for 2 years?

[@FED0RA]

injury i think

[@m4sterino814]

Injury

[@lennartgrimm]

Before that He already didnt play for 8 years, so now for 10 years

[@funnylpl]

​@@lennartgrimmbut what injury caused him to stop playing

[@funnylpl]

​@@FED0RAwhat injury

[@yifanren1085]

try short pips chopping its better both for attack and defense

[@Renaudruze]

@Emil will you come back to practicing with no pimples and back to competition now ?

[@irtiza4262]

Emil, you shouldn't have switched to the pips
You are an offensive player by nature, its clear as day
Not only because of your lack of patience to defend, but also because of your percentage of points won with offense instead of defence
You dont even have a bad backhand, so you have no reason to play this way
But I still get the fun factor in defending, supported by the fact that you dont play as often and seriously as the otger two

[@SteveSoper1979]

Emil just isn't a chopper and should play inverted both sides. Perhaps all is not lost. I'd like to believe there's an element of touch game where he's clearly had some practice at chopping, etc where maybe that'll come in handy every once in a while even with inverted but yeah. This LP chopping thing isn't your style mate.

[@jojo-._.]

Well, we all know how well Emil plays usually with a normal racket so why not for matches?

[@asadhussain5267]

Never mind Emil keep practicing.

[@StayInShock]

I did it, I subbed!

[@ArthurTICHIT-wo8gp]

Hi guys

[@john.s1962]

You have to get rid of the pips... You have such s beautiful attack, the pips hurt you.

[@bgmaster8557]

If you ever do rematch emil should use normal racket

[@BiscoWho]

So, rackets with pips AREN'T "normal" ?

[@bgmaster8557]

@@BiscoWho I play with pips and they aren't. It is very different

[@stardust22sm10]

[@RaymondChambersJa]

Emil hasn't touched his racket for 2 years Hahahahah English people and their yarns I swear
