Matchup analysis
The 🛡️ The Spoiler archetype wins about 65% vs 🏃 Pusher across 81 matches in our dataset. That is a small stylistic lean for Shuai Zhang here.
The Spoiler players often use strong court coverage and strong retrieval to pressure the pusher's extreme retrieval. On Grass, that can swing with conditions.
