Best served cold.
I've been in this racket for a long time, and I don't remember the last time a volley made me laugh out loud. This is cold, and I love it.
I call this sort of play the “zoom out” — you take the incoming volley, shrink it, and reveal it to be but a small part of a larger scene. Well done.
It’s also a judo move — take your opponent’s strength and try to turn it into a weakness. There’s no complexity or ambiguity behind this volley. Nice colors, and I love the little touch of setting the “LOADING” progress label with old school aliased type.
