I can only imagine every one of his opponents is also narrating through each point, saying "you're going in the spin cycle now" every point
"He's so used to getting spun, he gets dizzy when he stands still"
I have already watched this video 17 times and I can say this is a certified Northernlion classic
he’s 16x speed posting
I have already watched this video 18 times and I can say this is a certified Northernlion classic
This is a great one
The Maclaren Monaco bit was great, only they haven't raced in Monaco this season yet lol
I love these times when NL randomly gets into one competitive game for a while. ^.^
Friends Vs Friends was def a fav of mine.
dude same, even when it's not my game at all
I am still on a high from the Rumbleverse days
I miss bowling
switch sports was a lovely couple of weeks
10:55 I don't think I've ever witnessed NL experience shock like this
NL, when serving; "He's a serve and volley player!"
mario and luigi in bowser’s inside story:
Goated game as a child
really want a indie dev to take everything good about so many of these sports games and just focus on that and completely ignore the bullshit greed mechanics
I am here to watch and comment so that the analytics can allow NL to play this again.
when does he start bringing out the brain destroyer
Me when I’m an arrow and I’ve just been shot into the skull of a knight on the battlefield:
0:04 oh so it's a sports game then
watching this after seeing challengers hits different
Replace balatro IMMEDIATELY im a type T chatter and I love racquet games
Counter proposal, we add racquets to Balatro
What is up with the connectivity in this game? Every match either NL or his opponent has a poor connection
Man when NL learns to fully power his shots dis gon be gooood
this game has no reason to be this entertaining and intense lmao
so when do they start kissing the bald guy idk the only tennis i've ever watched was challengers
It is as he says, the game mechanics and gameplay looks tight and fun af but they need to balance the matchmaking for fair matches (if they have enough players for that).
Really fun watch as always.
I wouldn't normally watch this game but seeing nl talking about mind games is entertaining
I would have never thought some of my favorite content would be nl playing tennis
a little buy me sell me juice me serve me rally me dipped in mama lizzie’s chili oil
Seeing you in front of the baseline and knowing you have played tennis has me dying out here NL. DYING.
Me in the operating room trying to remove a brain tumour:
Love the 3 doors down reference 😂
Haha i remember on vacation in the 90's mom paying for groceries with a 20USD bill and got back 20+ CAD in change.
Surely NL will discover the beauty of volleys instead of staying in no man's land forever
Type A (Type 1) chatter spotted, spotted.
@@MaxionWang type A chatter spotter, spotted
If his opponents were any good they’d bag him in seconds with how much he’s in no man’s land
after watching this video i can confirm wii sports tennis clears this game
The close competitive games currently make my brain give the good shit.
i hate sports games now that they just lock progression behind paywalls.
Yeah, I have been a life long PGA tour golf fan, but the new ones are so lousy with battle passes and micros, it is nuts
I mean it has a career mode and a whole tutorial category for learning the game. You’re setting yourself up for failure if you go in straight for pvp
man, i never saw this coming. tennis is pog?
hi tomo
No XP for losses is just bad game design, unless of course your overriding priority is enticing p2w. Which makes it par for the course for 2K.
Bro got the impetus 💀
Im guessing the "NOR" stands for "Norwood"
It's almost as if this game would've been better without the modern multiplayer trappings. Like Top Spin 4.
We're Topspin guys of course we watch the spin cycle
Pretty sure last time I used cash to buy something was also a banh mi place that didn't like taking credit cards lol
more tennis please!!
dude with a Brittany Wilson avatar
I wish NL will not stand in "no-man's land" during first serves...
I love a battle pass in my sports game
10:50 to 11:00 on 0.25 speed is hilarious😂
Just did this. +2.😂
bro was pissed he got edged
But how will NL fair on grass??
huh
I love NL but what is anti-spin lmaooo does he mean hitting it flat??
Anti-spin cycle: instead of going cross court, he puts the ball on the side he just hit it to, to confuse the opponent, something like that!
forehand and 2h backhand shots generate topspin on the ball, due to the rackets motion of brushing upward across the ball when you hit it, causing the ball to fly low and dip fast, which is what also allows players to hit high speed shots in the first place inside the court. a way to kill all the topspin when returning would be to slice it, which brushes the ball with the racket in the opposite direction to a forehand, causing backspin negating the topspin and being a dead ball effectively without any/much spin hence anti-spin if hit perfectly
@@lynhehe I play tennis, he’s not referring to top spin when he says anti-spin, I think the other commenter is probably right
He means hitting it to the side the opponent had hit it from, which they are closer to, instead of hitting it to the other side. Usually you want to hit it away from your opponent to keep the tempo of the point in your favor, but since there is input delay and people don’t have the best reaction times with this game, you can catch the opponent off guard by hitting it to them instead of away from them. That’s what NL means by anti-spin.
So glad NL got the game and played it, so I don't have to. Been a tennis player and fan for 3 decades, and enjoyed games going back to the NES and og Gameboy ones...and this game? Just isn't it. Looks so very very mid, that I'll probably not even keep an eye out for sales, and just hope for something better from another dev...like maybe we'll get another Hot Shots game, cuz the last 2 of them blow this away in the gameplay department
Why does this game look exactly like the original top spin on xbox, and play no better than the tennis mini games in GTAV from 2013?
And apparently has pay to win and microtransactions? Like what the hell
This one is so weird, tennis enthusiasts don't strike me as the types of people who are worthless enough to spend their time playing a dog shit 2K sports game
Only 12 minutes in, but the way NL keeps getting his ankles broken by running back crosscourt instead of setting his feet for the return is really tilting me.
We’re top spin guys, of course we fantasize about the two players on the screen railing zendaya
Chat thinking they can embarrass NL by correcting his tennis terms, but knowing actual tennis is the most embarrassing shit you can do
instead of making the stats pay to win they should make each race have different stats and make people pay for those instead
the backlash would make them remove it and better the game
I'm an NL man, of course i pay extra to play as the gay latino hairy man with no stamina
NL stop defending 2K also can you please let my wife and child free I really miss them
I know it shouldn't, but it tilts me a bit when he say "serve and volley player" . Every player needs to volley sometimes. Volleying is not exclusive to some players and is one of the best ways to finish a point.
That's such a volley player thing to say
It's literally one of the archetypes within the game
He eventually stops.
@jhfkhjgfytuctyduyt opponent does one volley in a match of 20+ points. "Oh he's a serve and volley player"
Man, Americans must go craaaazy whenever they go anywhere where the local currency is less than half the dollar. Where I'm from, 40 rupees is a dollar.
Also, I've never heard brits saying the same for America
