@@naumankhawaja It's mainly because he uses a faster inverted rubber on his forehand so he can do counterloops and forehand topspins if he wants to. Chopping is much harder to do with inverted rubber because it's much more sensitive to spin.
Filus has some beautiful ball flight with his chops. Very creative with them too. It's unfortunate his blade/rubber combo isn't faster on loops and slams. Is that the sacrifice a good defensive setup has to make? Or are there hybrid combos that would achieve better results?
What an excellent player but eh amount of energy expended in every one of his volleys is immense. It comes down to the frustration of his opponent because they are getting bored.
I hear you. But to be fair, consistency in returns and waiting for your opponent to make unforced errors is a good tactic in TT. As are changes in rhythm. I love playing Chopper from time to time but you're right, the energy and stamina required would probably lead to a shorter career. Which is why i think the Waldner- style block strategy is the key to career longevity. If there was a better blade/rubber combo that allowed for good defense and faster slams and loops it could make Filus' points a little shorter
At the time he was reportedly using Tenergy 05 and Feint Long 3. Whether he has since upgraded to the newer Butterfly rubbers on the forehand I do not know.
The table should be lowered and painted pink. The players should all be very short, and play with a very light black plastic ball, oversized, to increase spectator enjoyment. The refs can sit on very tall stools, but would need long legs so their feet can reach the floor when scoring...
From being an IT and a youtuber to being pro TT player. So much respect to you LinusTechTips
wawit what?
3:05 wow, just wow
1:16 nobody can slice a smash like that
Indeed
Prob any Chinese person can
Chen weixing, Joó se hyuk, etc easily can
@@mlgbblade5221 Dumb comment. Do you even know the difference between defensive and offensive play?
Meurth no I only know Chinese and not Chinese
1:06 Fan was disturbed by Harimoto.
Omg look at his reflex at 4:04 that is crazy
What's even crazier is how fast that ball changed trajectory.
Hit the edge

Thought the Berlin wall went down in 1989...

@@jotabarberaIV he's german and he plays like wall lol
@@jotabarberaIV he means that nothing come through, like a wall.

Clever
The perfect mixture of defences and offence. Love him
I wonder how intense a ping pong anime would be considering this.
Well there was a manga called “Full Drive” but sadly it got axed, only got around 14 chapters i think.
Ping pong the animation, super good
Ping pong the animation is 11 episodes and incredible
Theres also a cool manga called Takkoku
There is Shakunetsu no Takkyuu Musume... but we don't talk about that...
4:33 out of world
That brush on those backhands! Omg! So snappy! So satisfying to watch!
You can hear Harimoto screaming at 1:05 😂
Israel Sanabria
😹😹😹😹😹
Lol
Omg
When he was 3 years old
You meant Screamoto?
He defends so much that when he attack people are like:
-WHAT? HE CAN DO THAT?????
These players have reached a stage of perfection in this game . They must have practiced a lot 😅
Rimpy Singh the smashes are easy, it’s all the other shots that are impressive
Professional Table Tennis players practice up to 6 hours a day.
What a beautiful match
Ngl on the thumbnail he looks like Linus from Linus tech tips apart from the hair
Bro thats what I thought I thought it was an LTT video 😂
Who heard harimoto screaming at 1:05 😂
If u watch the whole video,u will notice that he won't use the forehand chop
Because it's far more difficult to control than backhand chop. Also the amount of backspin is lesser than backhand chop.

He is a Chopper 🐯
Incredible!
Its so hard to be a def player today because of material used to the ball. slower counter underspin
when you spend all your spec points on def

Why do I find this sport more entertaining than baseball?
I hope he improve his skills more than in the future. i like his style.
Is it me? Or does he look like Linus?
He’s like that pusher in tennis we hate playing against
1:06 oh no not that Japanese guy again
Klasse!
Nice video but he lost in all these matches didn't he?
Yep, still chinese player will dominaye him
@@makanmurah8228 , it's hard to defend, can't win you all the points
И всё таки Чэнь Вэйсин лично для меня - это образец игры с длинными шипами слева и гладкой справа. Хотя этот Филус тоже весьма хорош)
would be awesome if he can do joo se hyuk forehand chop too
Forehand chop sucks
Tomori Naõ not if you combine it with attacks, otherwise you’ll be predictable
Que Cracks el mejor video 📹
Lovely
Are we just going to ignore fact that the opponent switched hands to receive the smash at 2:18?
Филус крут!
Подскажите, какая у него ракетка - и накладки и основания?!
Fabulous defense!! Wow 😲 will 😲
Wirklich sehr guter man
superb 💪😎👍
In the dictionary, next to the word "consistency" they should put his name.
At 1:05, Harimoto is nearby
Came here cause i thought the player was linus lol
Fascinating! I'm curious to know what types of rubber Filus uses for either side of his paddle
I think he uses tacky rubber for FH while long pips for BH
At the time he was reportedly using Tenergy 05 and Feint Long 3. Whether he has since upgraded to the newer Butterfly rubbers on the forehand I do not know.
if there was anything good that came from the change to plastic from silicone, its that it turn modern defense into a legitimate style and not a joke.
2:43 Smash point..... Table tennis needs more Ruwen's
I promise, there will be new points in ten days
You can hear Harimoto at 1:09
Cómo hace para que la bola vaya más lento,?
he's using rubbers on both sides? or pimples on one side?
did you have more of tabletennis
when were these march ? how old is he now?
What’s the shot at about 3:10 where he hits it just over the net and it barely bounces?
the ball hits the net and the spin releases

What rubber backhand RF?
whats The name of music introduction?
I didn’t know linustechtips played table tennis
3:43 相手の打ち方何?
What is his backhand?
Ruwen 2020
So many slices
others: "I will smash this dude"
Ruwen : "Waiting!"
Holy crap! A quiet Ovcharov
i miss you Joo..
You are awesome
I'd love to see him defend Ma Long's forehand lol
Wow, german monster 😮.
Wonderful points but he still loses the matches.Love to see him play.Go Filus. 👍
Why Ruwen uses most of the time the same service ?
It's not the same (very minor changes)
The guy in the thumbnail look like linus 😀
Greatest chopper ever.
I would say that Joo-sae Hyuk is better but yes Filus is awesome
Fußballclub Magdeburg 💙
Wot equipment does this boy use
It’s not the arrow it’s the Indian
@@lbeau061 But blocking like that with a T05 could be hard
Feint long 3 on BH. Tenergy 05 on FH.
How can he moan with a German accent
Ignorant new player question: Can you hit the ball back before it lands on the table once r has crossed the net? Much like in Tennis?
KrsJin no you can’t do that.
Zain Nasir Awesome, thanks much.
4:04 the table won
Defensive player are rare and annoying to go against.
nice video
He is playing tennis
good
Didnt know linus tech tips played table tennis
Eu vi só ele dar muito backhand com slice
Wirklich sehr guter man komm doch nach TTC Rauental oder DJK Offenburg wir ziehen was auf haha
Koks?
Boll is the best 🙌🙏
He looks like linus tech tips
2:41
Why doesn't he forehand chop? He only backhand chops
Cuz he has offensive on his FH
I need training
Why is a German guy saying cho??
Chop chop square😂😂
I wonder what the game looks like if he met joo se hyuk 🤣🤣
Waaaw
Rubbers?
unique style; only defends with backhand
Germany is the best
Gib Germoney
To take in invators,you Merkelsucker!
ok
Maybe he had sharingan

Why do Germans have to be so modern
The referees should be little people. The players could be little people but in that case they’d need to lower the table.
The table should be lowered and painted pink. The players should all be very short, and play with a very light black plastic ball, oversized, to increase spectator enjoyment. The refs can sit on very tall stools, but would need long legs so their feet can reach the floor when scoring...
