What Does block hitting allow for?

[Ceroria]

So... You were block hitting without knowing what it did? Seems legit.

Block hitting actually reduces damage taken? wut

Block hitting is a really good way on winning most fights in MCSG, I don't really recommend doing so. I win most fights without block hitting!

Blocking reduces 50% of all damage except for fall damage, drowning, potion effects, suffocation, lava, and fire damage. Block hitting is a way to take less damage and deal normal amounts. The problem is if you get hit while not blocking, no damage is reduced. Plus, blocking needs to be held for a certain amount of time to work, though it's a rather miniscule length and wont matter in most cases
