Strategy

Most of the matches I play are against amateurs who lack power. If I play defensively with chops and blocks my opponents will usually make errors. Is it better for me to play safe with this strategy or attack more?

Hi Will,

If your focus is to win the game then keep defending.  However if you are focusing more long term then try to make more attacking shots.
