A useful example
An early hit is rejected; wait while positioning the paddle. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
The ball-flight model is timing-based, not full tournament physics. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
