You should be prepared to play ping-pong just like you are mentally prepared for any other sport. Preparing early is a big step forward, and a good way to do this is to study how your opponent plays so you can understand where they are weak points are and what their strengths are. However, if you didn’t prepare like this, you can easily find out their strengths and weaknesses by being “The Explorer”.
Your main tactic as the Explorer, is to get a feel for your opponent by sending them at many different types of shots. In order to be effective at the explorer tactic, you are going to have to make use of many different types of shots when the game starts, like counter drives, loops, drives, blocks, spins, pushes, and many other types of shots.
By doing this, you will be able to adjust quickly and determine what shots are your opponent’s weakness. Try varying the different speeds at which you get the ball, and used many different types of serves as well.
As I said a second ago, you’re going to be able find out your opponents weakness very quickly by doing this. When you figure out your opponent by using this method, you’re going to be able to concentrate on sending your opponent also shots that they are weakest against.
As an example, if you find that the up opponent is weak against the soft lob, try to give him or her more of those. There is another strategy you could use, and it entails bringing your game to the table right from the start and adjusting your tactics as you go. This form of gameplay is known as the “dominator” method for obvious reasons.
A dominator won’t show any mercy and they will come to the table throwing their best shots straightaway from the beginning of the game. This method will force your opponent to make adjustments to how you play and not vice versa. As you can see this can be a really good position to be in, but you also need to know how to adjust to your opponent as well. If you aren’t able to adjust to your opponent’s shots, then this will probably mean the loss of the game for you.
Being a dominator means that you need to start the game with your best shots and adjust according to the response of your opponent to your shots.
Nine you need to make the decision on which type of player you’re going to be, either a dominator or an explorer. If you are going to become a good ping-pong player, you’re going to have to learn how to mix both styles together so that you can make adjustments to your opponent rapidly.
So it really doesn’t matter which type of player you are, in the end that you need to learn how to adjust your opponent so that you can come out the victor at the end.
