Okay, "MCSG PvP Master. Let me explain what I'm talking about.
I am not, suggesting for the 100th time, saying to add this specific plugin in. I'm saying to have something similar to it that would fit into the role of MCSG nicely.
So what if it only affects Sword PvP? Does it really need to affect anything else?
Congratulations, you are the 100th person to say strafing and blocking are legitimate tactics. Strafing is moving. Moving is not tactical. It's literally one of the things you do most throughout the entire game. Moving around your opponent is not tactical, it's what anyone would do. Blocking is blocking. You are either both clicking left/right mouse button, or occasionally blocking throughout the fight which only does a measly half a heart of damage less. Boring.
9/10 fights aren't sword only battles? Man, please be playing with me. Almost every fight during the beginning and early-med stages of the game contain swords only.
A swordfish has literally nothing to do with this.
I am not saying for this specific plugin to be added, I am saying something similar should be added etc. more complex mechanics.
p.s I've been playing MCSG since the beta.
If you have been here since beta, then why aren't you any good?
Moo, its like arguing against a wall. I tried to help him, but no...
Again Let me break down your arguement...
1# MCSG wants to replicate Hunger Games Gameplay reflected with minecraft PvP. Adding this would make it feel more like a kit with perks and powerups (like Mineplex Survival Games)
2# You say it would fit into MCSG nicely when obviously it won't (I really shouldn't need to explain this.)
3# You say Strafing and Blockhitting aren't strategies. You also say "anyone would do it" (strafing) when any person since MCSG beta would know that before MCSG got super competitive, people didn't strafe, blockhit, or use Fns or Rod. All people did back then was charge head on and fight, with the occasional bowshot. But wait you also claim PvP is click to win. So I have absolutely no clue what you seem to be arguing PvP is since you contradicted yourself, (no time to plead the 5th now).
4# When I say 9/10 fights use secondary items, I mean late game, as fighting people early game is barely considered fighting, because most good people are on routes, which leaves worse people without routes using sword only PvP, and those fight don't even qualify as a good fight.
5# A Swordfish has 100% to do with this, as the April 1st update, 2 weeks ago, left people with no swords, but fish. It was a funny prank on MCGamer Network, but people took it seriously, and said they would leave MCSG if this were kept. So if another plugin/whatever is added affecting PvP, people would leave since people don't like change, and something affecting PvP this harshly, would not be taken lightly.
6# I don't even know why I am wasting my time to tell you something people have already explained to you 10 times.
Please, if you want something like this to be added to PvP, I highly suggest you don't play MCSG, as no Dev would even consider this.
Stick to Mineplex Kit SG please...
