    Top spin-using the RB button..?


    It seems like its used for everything! shot modifiers, repositioning, charging the net and who knows what else.

    Can anyone give examples of when they use it besides for charging the net. That seems to work but the others not so sure..

    Should i be using RB to reach balls going baseline on me to get there faster?

    If you are talking about TS4 I don't use the button much at all. I use it when I want to approach the net off a "serve and volley" serve or when I want to approach the net after setting my opponent up. You shouldn't be doing this a whole lot unless you are playing with a player with those skills. I like to throw it in every once in awhile as a "changeup" when I'm playing online with a player with poor volley skills. If you make it a habit it's pretty easy to get the ball lobbed over you.

    I don't think "RB" works well enough for me to reposition my player after shots, I find it better to just move around using the Left Stick. Besides those 2 functions I don't think it does anything else.

      I definitely use 'RB' to reposition along the baseline for shots and chase down balls that are possibly out of reach. It definitely makes a difference.

        This, although every once in awhile I'll press RB to sprint to get wide enough to get the ball and it will make me run at the ball instead of taking a good angle.

          Yup. I use it all the damn time. If you don't, why aren't you?

            Is there a button you can press to 'give up' on a shot to save stamina instead of running after it? Sometimes you start towards the ball and then realise you won't get it - you just want to stop chasing it because you wouldn't in real life.
