Just as a good fast ball pitcher is more effective because of a change-up pitch and just as a "line-busting" fullback gains much more yardage if he has a team mate who can sweep the ends, every volleyball team needs some variety and deception in its attack.
The dangers of an offense based on deception have already been pointed out. Volleyball is a percentage game if ever
there was one, and experience soon teaches that the percentages are not with the trick play. However, blocking has improved so much in recent years that an occasional change in pattern or timing has become a necessity.
