Strategy
I have a friend who's a right hander whose forehand is his weaker side but he is so fast I cant exploit it he also is a good blocker of the ball and always sets his own rhythm in the game how can I break a rthythm which is fast paced as a leftie with a penhold grip with a reverse backhand should.
Hi Alex,
Against a good blocker the key is to change the spin and speed of your shots. They enjoy you playing the ball fast so change it up with slow and fast topspins and to various places on the table. This will break up their rhythm and gain you a few more points.

Where should i serve should i serve long or short. Should i play the reverse backhand topspin since i am a penholder.
Hi Alex,
Usually it is good to serve short so that your opponent can't attack first.
You should definitely give the RPB a try. It can be a good attacking stroke.
