shuttlecock* Why would you call it a "birdie"?

[jiminez]

it's like Tai Chi. Using the opponent's force.

@jammy123ism

@jammy123ism dude it can call either birdie or shuttlecock

[Llucius1]

He is simply hitting the birdie back to his opponent...I think he should make a video on block smash instead.
