German league TTBL 2025-26

[Bollwerk]

He was just dominating whole of China Super League being unbeaten (14-0) these past few months, what happened today? Also, when is their next match including Fan Zhendong?

Maybe he needs some more time to adjust to the environment, i don't really know. Can't fault him for lack of trying in those matches and he looked pretty disappointed at the end there. Especially with many fans flying in for the match (club said roughly 80% of tickets sold in Asia) i'm sure he wanted to put on a better performance. Next match on Saturday, basically once a week for now, you can check the schedule here.

16 TTR.

16 TTR.

Isn't that per match and with <30 matches it changes more, right?

Right, I forgot he lost both matches so minus 31 TTR.

how come so little?
oponents are both 200+ points lower than him

When one of my 2396 player loss to 2200, he lost like 20-30 points and when he wins a 2200, he wins 2 or 3 points.
the loss was having a fever too, so double blow

I guess the youtube experiment was more to collect data than anything else.

It's said TTBL got greedy and Youku spent a huge sum (more than expected) for the rights.

Youth players gain/lose more points than adults and the calculation cuts off at a max difference of about 250 points. So it wouldn't matter if you lost against someone with 300 or 500 points less than you. Calculation also takes into account if you have played any singles in the past year and have less than 30 matches in your records. So I actually messed up with Fan because Paris was in June last year. He will lose 39 points.

get 0 points in his first 2 match win outing lol.
2 points for wining 4 matches on his 1st day.

if you get scouted to help a 4th div team get into 3BL, don't play when you have fever, as if you loose, your whole season is in the negative

Comment from Darko about FZD's matches: "the game is completely different here compared to China, the ball, the tables, the players. We still have a lot more matches coming up, the old FZD will return."

I get that, but it's hardly his first match abroad either, is it?
But in fairness, those have always been in big venues and organised by the same 1 or 2 organizations.

he has to adjust a lot, every team uses different tables and balls. There is areal home team advantage. Maybe that is why he made a lot of easy mistakes. But I think next week he will look a lot more stable and will crush his opponents.

This Chinese stream works for me, layout is godawful on pc, but smth like Video Maximizer chrome extension fixes it

Which Video Maximizer chrome extension did you use? I see there a few of them with the same name. If you could add the link to the extension it will be very helpful and I will try this for the next game.

True, but league is just a very different environment to play in and no one is talking about the Chinese fans that chase him wherever he goes. Apparently the announcer had to ask them to be fair and respectful and when Fan wasn't playing they were all on their phones. I would hate to play under those conditions.

Dyn YouTube channel still posting some highlights, but taking their sweet time
