then you are saying that the most important thing in table tennis is the time??
The amount of time you train is a big factor.

but then if technique is important...why people without technique can win to people with technique??
Having the correct technique allows you to progress to your potential. Players with incorrect technique may be able to beat other players, but perhaps they could have been even better if their technique was better.
If you're not convinced try hitting a few balls yourself with really bad technique and see what happens :)
