Hi Erfan,

The main things is to take advantage of any long balls and make the first attack.  If you can get the attacking player to block or defend then they will be uncomfortable.

We have a tutorial in our Advanced "Playing Against" Series on Playing An Attacking Looper that may also help our Premium members.
