Hey Guys! Today I will be giving you guys a few tips and tricks that you can use to help you be more successful in the survival games.
1) Getting to know the maps can be a great help. Things that you should know about maps: How good are the corn chests, Where are the tier 2 chests, Common places that opponents are. (If enough people get involved in this thread I will put up my personal chest routes)
2) When going for corn, sprinting and jumping when the timer says 1 second can help improve your chance of getting a chest at corn. When you check a corn chest your priorities should be Sword, Diamond/Ingot, Armor, Then Food.
3) If you manage to get a sword right off the bat you are in very good shape. Try to kill people near you that are still checking their corn chests because if you manage to kill them you might be able to get some better armor or a diamond/ingot. WARNING, dont stay at mid for too long because there are others with swords as well and they could kill you.
4) I cannot stress how important getting a weapon is. Any weapon > armor.
5) Find a reliable chest route and go through it. Tip : always have multiple chest routes just in case you cant make it to your first one.
6) When attacking someone with about the same or even slightly better armor/weapon it is essential for you to get the first few hits. This can be accomplished by having the element of surprise and attacking them from behind. If you are not able to get behind them and you are facing them head on then there are a few techniques. Theres the fishing rod, FnS, Straffe, and blockhitting. All of these techniques can help you get an advantage in some way. (Again if enough people get involved in this thread I will go in depth on those techniques)
7) Water Battles : My tips for a water battle is to at least have a boat (for escape a way to catch your opponent) Bow (to finish off opponents) And a Fishing Pole (To Repel strong opponents or to "boost" others) I will go in depth for water battles if I am asked to.
7) Another very important part of this game are Golden Apples. These can save your life. When eating one it will automatically give you 2 extra hearts (it is a gold heart and appears above your normal health bar), besides that it also help you regen quickly regardless of how full your hunger bar is. If you are being chased eating one of these apples can be worth getting hit 1 or 2 times because it will help you regen to full health in no time.
8) Refills. This is a very difficult thing to get because of the amount of "teams" in the game. But if you are lucky enough to be there it will give you an amazing advantage. It could give you enough diamonds to make a diamond sword it could give you a full set of iron armor and even a couple other things that could help you. It will happen at around the 16th minute mark. Typing /info throughout the game can help you get a good idea of when refills will happen.
9) Deathmatch. By the time you reach DM you will need to have decent armor and a decent wep. My technique is to eat a golden apple as the countdown is going so it gives you a total of 12 hearts, next is to pull out your bow and aim an arrow at your opponent (release arrow after you see 1 second). Continue to shoot your opponent as he come towards you. Weaker opponents will try and run away and circle around, and all you have to do is pull out your wep and cut them off. Strong opponents will be tough to beat and you will need to use various techniques to beat them.
This Is All The Tips I Have For Now. If I Missed Anything You Want Me To Cover I Will Put It In A Part 2.
