Which backhand was better overall: Wawrinka's or Nishikori's

I posted this a few days ago and got a consensus answer https://tt.tennis-warehouse.com/ind...awrinkas-or-nalbandians.705946/#post-15633788

Now how about compare Wawrinka's to Nishikori's topspin backhands. Everything considered. No doubt Wawrinka's is more powerful and we have to consider the return of serve as well. So everything considered which is better?

Metrics do exist on things like this, and KN has the more effective BH. Stan has more highlight worthy shots, but for all around value, Nishikori's BH is the winner.

Nishikori's overall was better but when stanimal appeared his was amazing.

Ninja. Stan is too fat, i just can't.

Wawrinka won 3 Slams with his backhand. Nishikori only managed 1 Slam final with his. End of debate.

 

[Bender]

On average, Nishikori.

Peak, Wawrinka no question.

I think other factors play a bigger role when it comes to that. Wawrinka's serve compared to Nishikori's for instance.

Stan's is more flashy but Nishikori's is better.
