  1. China Smash 2025

    I dont brush off anything, please stop confusing my mindset with yours. I let the players play and decide. After all, I didn't spend years claiming Matsushima was useless only to now have to start turning around when his results show enough of an uptick that it is hard to deny he has a chance...
  2. China Smash 2025

    Uda surpasses Togami with this vengeful result on Moregardh. We will see how far it goes.
  3. FZD rumor

    I think this reads too much into the situation, but I could very well be wrong. FZD's issues were less about the CNT as a whole and more about the desires of certain individuals to make money off the commercialization of table tennis in ways he didn't feel duly cared and compensated for. I...
  4. China Smash 2025

    He is still consistently defeating the Xiang Pengs, Xue Feis, Xu Yingbins etc. And yes, everything I have heard is that all those players you listed are some of the most insane natural talents the game has ever seen. In fact, this is the first time I am hearing someone spotlight LGY as a great...
  5. China Smash 2025

    I am not making this up, I am quoting what happened in 2017. Even in prior trials, LGY was consistently lauded for his effort. You are the one talking about talent, LGY climbed up the pole slowly, he was already outstripped on the talent pole by FZD. Even when he was in the middle of the pack...
  6. Wcq nailed again. Most shameless pro on tour currently

    It's partly because Harimoto is relatively volatile and that creates room for fun speculation.
  7. China Smash 2025

    No one I know ever commented on his talent as why they gave him an opportunity. LGL always claimed multiple times that LGY was the hardest working player on the team. In fact, his break through in the Marvelous 12 trials for the 2017 WTTC was described as the success of hard work and...
  8. China Smash 2025

    The mentally weak thing is always the narrative rather than looking at the objective strength of a player. At best, he was tremendously unlucky. But no one gets that great at TT being mentally weak, he outperformed so many players to get to where he is that the narrative is a bit skewed...
  9. Wcq nailed again. Most shameless pro on tour currently

    Of course not. It just isn't usual for someone to post their opinion, get pointed to all the other facts that are in conflict with their opinion, and then rather than discuss some of those facts, they troll you by acting like you are just ignoring facts because you pointed out other facts they...
  10. What to do when opponent keeps blocking to Backhand

    You are still stuck at a level of thinking that makes the game all about you ("I have to backhand drive like Kreanga to win the point"). No, you can't force a forehand rally either (again, still making the game all about you). Look for things you can do that might bother your opponent or set...
  11. China Smash 2025

    Hugo doesn't either.
  12. China Smash 2025

    People forget that Milosz beat Timo as a teenager lol.
  13. China Smash 2025

    Why is Polcanova so helpless against Shin "only good for doubles" Yubin?
  14. FZD rumor

    My point though is that if CNT couldn't pick SYS, then if FZD makes the final, the result is up to him as well if he faces WCQ. Gotta question the logic of that post.
  15. FZD rumor

    That's my point though - FZD not winning cannot be by instruction if he plays Wang in a final. If they couldn't instruct Chen Meng, they can't instruct FZD,
  16. China Smash 2025

    Come on, people use Hitler in joke memes all the time, let's remember all those Downfall overwrites - let's not take this too seriously please.
  17. FZD rumor

    You think the CNT picked Chen Meng as the winner? Seriously?
  18. African Table Tennis Diaspora (in collaboration with Fortius) 2026 Open Final

    QF : MLTT Matchup of teammates: Shouman vs Chen. The winner might surprise some.
  19. China Smash 2025

    A friend told me that the point made him wonder whether he plays table tennis. And I responded that the point gives me hope for table tennis, the guy who hit the ball harder didn't win the point so there is still room for other things to win points lol...
  20. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2025 - 4-9 Nov 2025

    It's always fun to see what happens when no Chinese players around to see who wants to claim alpha status in their absence. As long as the Chinese play most of these events, these "CNT are busy elsewhere" events are a fun change up.
