--> Pusher
[I]Shot-maker :[/I] player who looks to produce winning shots very quickly, few exchanges. Tremendous amount of winners or unforced errors but no in between.
[I]Aggressive-baseliner with Shotmaking tendencies :[/I] player who can keep high offensive exchanges but will often resort to trying to win points fast. Often pretty bad shotmakers since it isn't their natural asset.
[I]Aggressive-baseliner (classic) :[/I] works the exchange, clean stricker, can't defend at all. Fair amount of winners/forced winners, generally equal.
[I]Aggressive-baseliner with offensive-minded counter-punching tendencies :[/I] defends better but still not as good as a classic counter-puncher.
[I]Offensive-minded counter-puncher :[/I] can dominate the base-line a little bit at times (not very good though). Will be quickly pushed to her natural asset agaisnt more powerful players and will never switch even if given the opportunity.
[I]Defensive minded counter-puncher :[/I] has a bigger forced winner count than a pusher, does just a little bit more than a pusher offensively.
[I]Pusher :[/I] Relies solely on opponent's unforced errors.
