Hello MCSG. I'm sure most of you are annoyed to death because of this glitch called the "diamond fist glitch". Well, I am to. I've brainstormed many ways to avoid them and I've decided to share with you how you can avoid them.
Step 1: If you don't know the map, go to corn, grab some stuff, and get out. Get out as fast as you can xD. This step is different for maps you know. If you have a chest route with tier 2's, go straight there. Chances are at spawn you will only get 1 chest, and if you have a good chest route, you'll probably get more then 1 tier 2.
Step 2: If you see somebody coming at you with no weapon quite confidently, you might wanna run. They wouldn't come at you with just fists if you're holding a stone sword for example. The logic there isn't quite right. The odds of them having stone sword fists are pretty low, because most people win with iron/diamond swords. So yeah, just book it.
Step 3: Going into DM with good gear? Target the person with the gear and no weapon. They probably are abusing the glitch. If you hit them with your bow a couple times you could take them, and then kill the other person alive which, who knows, might be under geared.
Step 4: If you're confident that you can kill a person coming at you with no weapon, I'd suggest using FnS and running for a bit. Wait for them to get low, then slay them, and be proud. That is probably the easiest way to kill a fist abuser early on in the game.
Step 5: If you die to one, record them with ANYTHING (ex. bandicam, hypercam, fraps, ANYTHINGGG). If you report them with footage of them abusing it, they will probably get banned. Do that and we can stop them from abusing it once and for all c:.
Well. I hope you've learned a bit on how to survive the wrath of diamond fist abusers. And also, if you have any other strats, post them below and I'd be willing to put them up with credit
