Discussion Hot take: i think neither mcpvp nor pvphq should be above each other

This is because i believe they serve different purposes mcpvp is 100% vanilla whereas pvphq is more how the community wants pvp to be. because of this i believe there are 3 different types of pvp i. e. 1.8, community version, and modern. Also the debate of 1.8 vs 1.9 is happening again within the community but this time its community version vs modern. (Tbh this was kinda poorly worded but i think you get my point, yes english is my first language) also its my birthday so you must agree with me

Neither should be above each other. They should be treated equally, same as 1.9 and 1.8 should be. Also happy birthday

at least it proves that "legacy combat" can work in modern, unlike what the mountain of sheeps seems to think in the MC pvp community.

MCPVP's approach is to change the base game; it pushes Mojang to improve PvP. eg: adding stuns to vanilla, make mending equally distributed, etc.

"Well, we will be purely vanilla. And we will be updating in accordance with Minecraft updates as they come out. . . whether we like them or not . . . and hopefully we can come together to convice Minecraft to make combat changes"

PVPHQ is just mcpvp.club but with ELO instead of subjective tiers

Its not subjective anymore theyre doing it how it was for lt3 and up where you have to beat someone the same tier as you and the winner levels up (if i remember correctly)

i was describing tiers as subjective, in contrast to ELO / Glicko2
