Thank you everybody for 1 million views. This table tennis legend deserves this. I'll make part 2 ***Ma Lin -Penhold God II***, as appreciation to all of you. His legacy deserves to be recognized by future generations. Video will come out in early March.
Penhold también tiene sus ventajas, no te bloqueas mentalmente entre cambio de derecha a izquierda. Eso sí, exige juego de muñeca...el jugador elige el estilo y la empuñadura que mejor le va. Lo curioso de Ma Lin es esa fuerza y agresividad cuando literalmente mata la pelota. Y esos bloqueos y dirección impecable. Fué un peldaño más arriba con el TT .
If you are a penholder, and you just want to improve your technique - watch Wang Hao. An unprecedented, beautiful and unique style, simply a joy to watch. However, if you want to improve any other aspect of your game - just watch Ma Lin. Tactics, strategy, serve, dedication, discipline... and shenaniganry. A lot of shenaniganry. He is the main reason why I switched to penhold grip as an adult. They both deserved the grand slam so much. :/
It's considered a compliment when someone says that 'so and so makes so and so sport look easy/effortless,' but to be very honest, Ma Lin makes Table Tennis look like it does take a lot of perseverance, hard work and effort.
As a table tennis amateur,I used to imitate Ma Lin's play style,which I think is really tricky and unpredictable. Ma is also well-known for his strong psychology that helps him perform calmly in a clutch time.
The last match on this video is one of the most incredible volleys I’ve seen of a table tennis match looking like a tennis match..the accuracy and precision is unparalleled !
I just now realized that tennis is really a gentleman's sport. It's essentially two people going "Here, good sir, have this ball." "No old boy I insist, YOU have the ball!"
and from Wang Hao's vid are thumbs down from Ma Long and Wang Liqin and from Ma Long and Wang Liqin's videos are thumbs down from Ma Lin XD. and all of them thumbs down Zhang Jike's video
One of the greatest if not the greatest of all time G O A T Ma Lin was a very intelligent player extremely smart I've seen him compete live many times his strikes were all logic pure talent and skill at its finest making a lot of his returns impossible for his opposition to hit back simply due to his opponents body position making his counters impossible to return like boxing once your arm or body is fully extended and the counter hit immediately follows makes it impossible to protect or hit back
The skills displayed here are fantastic... it's amazing how vicious the game gets and still returns are made along with smashes and distance management. The best in the world right there.
Not even close, unproven, glaring weakness on his backhandside. Xu Xin has great touch and footwork i'll give him that, but he is still far behind Ma Lin and WangHao in terms of skill level and accomplishment.
Ma Lin is the best, Wang Hao has the better style in theory, but Ma Lin is just too crafty, the way he plays, so tactical, so awkward, it really is a pain to deal with.
Gin356a but Wang Hao most of the time defeated Ma Long and Wang Liqin players which Ma Lin loses every time. it's like full circle, while Wang Hao most of the time loses to Ma Lin...
Yeah Ma Lin has a hard time against solid 2 wing shakehand attackers, but Ma Lin is a really smart and aggressive player, which is more important for penholders. The way I see it, Because Wang Hao is no weakness in his backhand, he cant be exploited by shakehand players, and penhold's advantage when dealing with balls in the middle gave Wang Hao an edge. However, Ma Lin (and Xu Xin now, to a certain extent) does not rely on out-playing, Ma Lin gambles on every chance ball and plays a lot of "all or nothing" shots with extremely high single shot quality. And often times, Wang Hao, and other shakehand players could not withstand the Gambit. Personally, I think penholders should play like Ma Lin and develop a crafty and extremely aggressive playstyle, of course we should work on our backhand to mitigate its weakness whenever we could, but that should not be the focus.
This was insane! It was like watching poetry in motion & he definitely deserves the title "Ma Lin -Penhold God." Heck, even his opponents were fantastic
what i like about this bloke is that he doesn't shout like a mental maniac after every point he has won. he dominates humbly and i respect this ninja for that
Ma Lin is one of the most talented players in the history of world table tennis, and I really like his style of play. What is important, he plays very unconventionally, uses a lot of interesting techniques in his game. This is not a formulaic technique, like some modern Chinese top tennis players, he played like a real artist, very unpredictably. There is a very complex and varied serve with the strongest spins, and a powerful forehand, and a rather unpleasant unpredictable backhand, and extremely unpleasant blocks, and shortened balls.
Anytime I start thinking I'm good, I watch this guy and I'm quickly brought back down to reality! Ma Lin is a Legend but all these guys are amazimg athletes! Cool Video!
@@CalvinAytch I thought I was pretty decent, then I watch a video of me playing and I was like "Omg, this is the crapiest thing on earth 😂" Thanks man, really appreciate your uplifting words 💪
ways to offensive to be compared to nadal. nadal plays a lot behind the base line with very heavy topspin. ma lin plays shorts with pushes and blocks, and likes to counter topspin for short points. just when he has to, he goes into top- top rallies! he's a lot more like the young federer who liked to gain short points with a offensive style (serve and volley for example), but could also play base line tennis when needed!
This guy must've read some Sun Tzu or some shit, he does everything to win, those foot stomps are syncopated after his hits to throw off the opponents rhythm, this guy is asian level ping pong lol.
its more his anticipating of what happens next , still his pen holder shots are absoultely insane . but the reason he is capable to pulll the off is that he knows exactly were the ball will be next . Outstanding player and feeling for the Game . GOAT for me
not yet ... now we knew another penholder like dang qiu, felix lebrun (from europe) also wong chun ting from hongkong ..... it's sad that china can't rebirth this legend playstyle from their youngster yet
Yining Zhang was asked once: who you think would be difficult to play against? Zhang thought answers: umm, Lin Ma dude has lightening reflex ... unbeatable
as a Chinese, I am pride of his top level performance on his field and next generation is always on their new way to keep world class of this sport. thanks again.
I played this older gentleman in his 50s from Dallas Texas. I was incarcerated at the time. We played almost everyday for 2 years. I couldn't beat this man for nothing. I consider myself a dam good player being i played growing up at the recreation center. Anyway this man was a master. I couldnt beat him on his worse day. I came close. He was like Micheal jordan. He always came through in the clutch. He would give these guys a nice matchup but these guys are out of this world. Great video
Me after beating all my friends: "I`m pretty good at this game, if I practiced more I could really go far" Me after watching olympic players *warm up* before a match: "Fuck this game, I don`t even like it"
Bouncy Bounce Everything you just said are dominated by Asian FYI. Maybe except modern philosophy and politics. Politics can hardly count. USSR were indeed good at politics but they didn't have good enough governance and they failed their country.

In my opinion, this is one of the, if not the most, difficult sport in the world. The sheer amount of coordination and stamina it takes to compete at this level is unreal. Other professional sports, like basketball for example, the players are no doubt talented, but they have a huge advantage physically, which boosts their game. Here, in table tennis, it’s complete coordination and mechanics. This sport will never get the recognition it deserves, because normal people have a tendency to look down at it as a past time and see it played at a basic level.

马林是杀手，招招为了致命，不讲究怎么出招，什么姿势
Xu Xin likes to show off his skills, or the other hand, Ma Lin cares about winning.
别吹了，就是个厨子😊
马琳跟nba的高手一样，招数简单能得分。
His reflexes are superb. Many players unable to use penhold grip due to its limitations. But he just used it perfectly with his flair and talent.

Only if Ma Lin used the reverse backhand like Wang Hao, he would have been so much better.
It takes equally good opponents to show truly how good you are. Amazing.

so the point must be awarded to ma long??

I play table tennis with my friends too, but a lot more slower.
This guy is an animal.
Oscar Ramos brutal beast
This guy IS an animal but not for his speed. it's much more than that, Speed isn't really the deciding factor in his game, or men's TT in general.
He is demigod of table tennis
Legend says this clip is a slo-mo
I was skeptical about the title. Now im not.
He definitely trained with Wis and mastered Ultra Instinct

Best penholder in history. I miss seeing him in action.

wwhen i see this much balls of MA... he was the greatest Penhold...ever !
He reminds me of Rafa Nadal with his aggressive play style based on his heavy topspin forehand and the passion he puts on it. Brilliant
ways to offensive to be compared to nadal. nadal plays a lot behind the base line with very heavy topspin. ma lin plays shorts with pushes and blocks, and likes to counter topspin for short points. just when he has to, he goes into top- top rallies!
he's a lot more like the young federer who liked to gain short points with a offensive style (serve and volley for example), but could also play base line tennis when needed!
@@Wisstihrwas Federer would be Waldner,Ma Lin would be Sampras who had a good forehand but didn't like to get dragged into long rallies.
nadal is the opposite of aggressive, his preferred position is well behind the baseline grinding with his heavy topspin
4:29 are you kidding me 😐 God level recovery
This guy must've read some Sun Tzu or some shit, he does everything to win, those foot stomps are syncopated after his hits to throw off the opponents rhythm, this guy is asian level ping pong lol.
Foot stomps is common. Also helps put more power into top spin, but he's very precise at timing it.
It's not ping pong bitch. It's table tennis...
its more his anticipating of what happens next , still his pen holder shots are absoultely insane . but the reason he is capable to pulll the off is that he knows exactly were the ball will be next . Outstanding player and feeling for the Game . GOAT for me
Ma Lin is definitely one of the best players ever. He is a LEGEND!
an immortal player, heard lot about him, just watch him now for the 1st time, he is so special
They are not human! The hand & eye coordination is unreal..... That's just to name the main two obvious out of the rest of the skillsets...
I remember watching games of Ma Lin (no.2) vs no.1 in 🏓. He was always a great champion.
That loop is just GNARLY.
His movement and body work was something else. Never have I seen another player play a forehand as quick off the bounce as MA lin.
Erik Lindh and Damien Eloi took it even earlier.Also Gatien.

"the moment when all of your supporters from ur country change the opposite to roots the chinese"

look how popular this video compared to other compilation...
this style was awesome to watch.. yet they killed it with ball changes

The problem of table tennis scoring system is that all scores are even. A fabulous shot scores 1 and a mistake also scores 1. If the scoring was like boxing, Ma Lin would be the king.
bro the 2013 matches were so crazy
His forehand os outstanding, scary tbh
Ma Lin vs Wang Liqin was and is still probably my favourite "classic" of TT history.
WTTC 2005, 2007 and 2009 3 defeats for Ma Lin in a row against Wang Liqin
And also vs Wanghao
In my opinion, this is one of the, if not the most, difficult sport in the world. The sheer amount of coordination and stamina it takes to compete at this level is unreal. Other professional sports, like basketball for example, the players are no doubt talented, but they have a huge advantage physically, which boosts their game. Here, in table tennis, it’s complete coordination and mechanics.
