Forming a two-man wall in a 2v2 game was a risky – borderline idiotic – move. Not only was it difficult for the man in the back row to recover from his position and move in sync with his teammate to form a solid wall, but if it failed, there would be no one guarding their area, allowing the opponent to score easily. This was all theoretical knowledge that anyone new to the game of volleyball should have known from the beginning.
However, it was precisely because this was a stupid move that Riku dared to pull it off. He knew from the cross spike that Kenzo had executed a moment ago that the professional player was incredible on the front line, making it difficult for them to stop his attack. The only thing they could do at that moment was to surprise him, and they would fail to do so if they didn't take drastic measures like this.
