Most badmitten players only use one play
0:02
style and it's a large reason why their
0:04
improvement may plateau. So here are the
0:07
three badmitten play styles that you
0:09
must learn if you want to improve in
0:11
singles. You can think of these play
0:13
styles as levels in your gameplay with
0:15
the last one being the hardest to
0:17
perform but the most efficient at
0:18
scoring points. Starting with the first
0:21
play style, the attacking style.
0:24
This one is the easiest in terms of
0:26
having the easiest shots to control. The
0:29
power shots like smashes and drives
0:32
don't need as much control because there
0:34
isn't as much reliance on having good
0:36
shot quality. However, the caveat is
0:39
that you must sacrifice your endurance
0:41
in the match to take the shuttle as
0:42
early as possible to attack.
0:45
Some pro players you can look at for
0:47
this play style are Kodi Naraoka when
0:49
he's playing fast and Liuku.
0:56
The second style, the control style or
0:59
the rally style. This is harder than the
1:02
attacking style because it focuses on
1:04
playing high quality shots to control
1:06
your opponents around the court, making
1:08
the shots much more difficult to
1:10
control.
1:13
Kodi Naroka when he's playing slowly or
1:16
Kunlav Viditsarn are great pro players
1:18
to watch for this style.
1:20
The hardest style combining both
1:22
attacking and control styles is the
1:25
counterattack style. This play style
1:27
requires you to be good at attacking,
1:29
defending, and controlling your opponent
1:32
and thus involves more elements such as
1:34
changing pace and anticipation.
1:42
This is the style most pro players use.
1:45
Even the ones we mentioned earlier like
1:47
kodai lichu and kunlav.
1:51
But an especially great pro player to
1:53
watch for this style is Chenla.
1:56
>> So if you want to improve your singles,
2:00
it's important to know which style
2:02
you're good at or bad at.
