Hello. Alot of people have trouble in MCSG when fighting against people or with things that give them disadvantages. Nobody likes disadvantages. They are hard to overcome and cause a ton of rage in the community. An example of some of these disadvantages are:

Hacker(s) - It always sucks to be dominating a game and then all of the sudden here comes LGT Jr. Ready to screw you over.

Teamers - This is allowed on MCSG Unlike hackers, But are still very very difficult to overcome. They can turn your chances of winning completely around and all in all are one of the leading causes to disrespect and rage on the servers and even here on the forums.

Better Geared Players - You feel stacked, but the other guy in the room is alot more stacked. No need to panic, you got this!

If these things fluster you and give you worry, then worry no more (I hope) If you follow these steps correctly, then these things won't be such large road blocks in your road to victory!!!

Chapter 1: How To Beat Hackers

People who hack are usually ones who are very aggressive considering the fact that they are fine with breaking rules to boost their wins. An easy way to be on top of a hacker is to find natural advantages. High mountains, Open areas for flint and steel, or heavy forest areas where you can hide out. Water is always a great way to escape an enemy... But not against these guys. There are such things as...
-Dolphin hacks: Skipping atop the water like a pebble and gaining speed
-Water walking/Jesus hacks: Walking atop the water being able to sprint and gain on you in a matter of seconds
-Fly hacks: Allows you to gain speed when under the water or fly over the water to catch up its opponent

But, of course, the best way to defeat hackers is to have distance on them. In a melee situation, Hackers can use forcefield, click aimbot, and sprint hacks to totally demolish you.
What you need is range attacks. Weapons that are useful...

-Fishing Rods: If he gets to close to you, knock him out of there
-Bows and arrows: 180 bow shots are total dominators, It is like hitting them with an iron sword but they can't do anything about it
-Flint and steel: Slowing them downing, Hurting them, Temporarily blinding them, What else do you need?

If you use these tools and tips correctly, then hackers shouldn't be very big problems. Just remember, The worst thing to do against a hacker, is hack back. It's illegal and you WILL get banned for it. Also, when fighting hackers, try to get evidence of them hacking. You might lose the battle, but you will win the war.

Chapter 2: How To Beat Teams

Aah teamers. The ultimate trollers and rage makers. Nothing is worse than running around a corner to see a team of 3 or 4 with better gear than you... Until now.

When you see a team at the beginning of a game, make sure you have a general idea of where they will be so if you get really geared up, you can take them out early. If a team of people is targeting you with fists, need not worry, Just run and don't stop running. When you get enough distance look for a chest as fast as you can. About 99% of the time a team of 3 with fists is no match to a solo guy with weapons and armor.

If you are late into a game, And there is say a team at corn. Don't worry. Stalk them. Watch whatever they do, stay focused, look around, and as soon as they aren't expecting it or one of the members splits off for even a second, then your set. A fact about teams is that unless it's a clan, 9 times out of 10 they're teaming because they can't win a game by themselves, so if you are good at PvP then you just need to worry about splitting the team. A good way to split a team is by stalking, then taking them out one at a time. Strike hard, Targeting one of the members and taking him down, then run like a crazy person until you have time to regroup and go back to stalking. If they don't stop following you then wait until one stops to eat or gets distracted, and target him. You might be bombarded by the other team members, But as soon as you kill one of them, It's time to flee. Just keep doing this tactic and you should be splitting teams in your dreams.

Chapter 3: How To Beat Stacked Tributes

This can be tricky some times. What you need is natural advantages. A guy in full iron is no advantage against a guy with worse armor who is on top of a mountain. Most of the time, The more stacked guy overlooks simple advantages and sees the worse player as an easy kill, So he tends to get a bit too aggressive. You sit atop a mountain and when he climbs up, you hit him down. Don't lose your focus, or lose sight of him, Because if he is smart, then he can get around you and you will be the one falling to your death... Which is not what you want. If your on a map like Solar Frost, though, Where there is no mountainous places, then look for deadly parkour as a final go. If you think your going to die anyways, then risk it. Do some lava parkour. If he follows, hit him in. If he doesn't follow then your safe to regroup and maybe find some better stuff. The main thing when fighting a better competitor is to stay confidence... Confidence is key.

I hope this helped you with disadvantages in MCSG, And I hope you can do the impossible.

I dislike when people say teams are only for those who can't win by themselves. Most of the time it's just friends having a good time. In fact having a regular teammate lowers your chances of winning due to the fact that you have to split the wins 50/50.
