Hello everyone, I am going to be showing you some tips and tricks! However before that, a bunch of you are most likely like "What's this loser doing? He only has 130 wins!". While that is true, I can keep up with top tier players like reven86, Linkdude1997, and TopBandit.
We are going to start off with, your setup! Everyone needs to be comfortable when they play!
Get yourself a nice chair and sit down close to your PC, or sit on a table with your laptop.
Your hotbar: There are a few different hotbars setups I like, so here are 3:
1: This is the order: Sword, Rod, Bow, FnS, Golden Apple, Food, Food, Food, arrow.
2: This is the order: Sword, FnS, Rod, Bow, Golden Apple, Food, Food, Food, Arrow
3: This is the order: Sword, Rod, FnS, Golden Apple, Food, Food, Food, Arrow, Bow
Next tip: Fishing rod. The rod is going to be your best friend. What you want to do, is right click and QUICKLY switch back to your sword and start hitting
. This will knock them back a slight amount, and you should be able to get 1 or 2 hits earlier than them, however in some cases against utter noobs you can 10 heart them .
The Bow: You need to be able to finish of fleeing opponents with a snipe, or initiate with a bow for afar. Your bow, will be very essential in taking teams out while running. I really can't tell you about how to get "better" with your bow, besides use a crosshair you can use. I personally like Huahwi's new one. Other than that just practice on other servers if you don't wanna destroy your ratio or whatever.
The sword/blockhitting: The sword is going to be your primary weapon for most people, otherwise it's the bow. You will want to be able to get about 70 clicks in 10 seconds to be fairly efficient, but you might want to try jitter clicking for better results. Just aim properly, and some people will think you use aimbot, which won't be the case. I recommend aiming at their knee or head. Blockhitting is essentially where you click both left and right click so you will (most of the time) take 1/2 damage and deal your normal damage. However, be careful as it slows your speed down.
Routes: You are going to need chest routes to be able to get full iron on popular maps such as: Solar Frost, SG4, Valleyside, Icarus, MoonBase, SG Highway, Alaskan Village, and other popular maps. I recommend JustAHotDog's videos as well as flok.
Refill: You want to be at refill to get as many Golden Apples/Diamonds/Food as you can get so stacked teams don't get it! The chests refill at 17:01
Flint and Steel: Flint and Steel is much different than it used to be, however you still need to be able to use it properly and not FnS spam like a lot of people that watch Huahwi do. You want to place 1, a MAX of 2 FnS when running away, but when your about to jump into a fight, if your opponent is strafing, place it where is is most likely going to jump into, so you can get extra hits and he will be slowed down.
Strafing: Strafing is essential for sword fighting. You want to constantly be moving, so your opponent wont be able to hit you as easily. You can strafe side to side, or use the circle strat.
Teams: There are going to be a LOT of teams to fight, so take advantage of it and use FnS! You want to separate them , with your FnS, and then slowly pick them off 1 by one, however if they are very undergeared(I'm talking full leather stone swords, when your full iron) you can rush them down and just pick them off 1 by 1.
This was my (hopefully) useful guide for some new people to get into MCSG and PVP in general! Sorry for this G33ke thread, but I hope this was helpful!
