what's your longest competative rally, eg not delibretly trying to get a high one. mine is 71 with a superb player called red tiger. between 2 of the best players you see 10 - 20 as average rally length, you think this is too long? people said you can hit any ball...

what do you think about this and what is your long rally

They might be a little too long, if you consider that most rallies end from an out, not because of a well placed shot.


If you look at any given game and look at the 'points' compared to the 'outs' and 'nets', the points are normally not that high.


You can still get to just about any ball hit with primary fire.
Maybe if there was a way to make secondary fire charge faster but your movement remains slow for a short while after swinging.

This way people won't charge up immediately after returning but it'd make for faster, more interesting matchups.

in the games i play i very rarely get outs, neither do my opponents, we score points by "controlling" the opponent

i get bored after 5/6 shots so i do an alt-fire smash that wins the point, end of story :D

i like the rally length atm, as u say its about controlling your opponent, and putting them out of reach of your shot. (maybe a real rally of 71 is too long, but meh)
