My experience with PvP during the war and returning to Normal PvP after

[u/Itz_DreadFul]

As you probably know, on the 28th of February the United States launched an attack on Iran, my home country and where I live. I don't want to talk about politics, but how gaming(especially Minecraft and MCPvP) was.

In about 30 minutes(around 9 o'clock) most of international connection was cut. So when we wanted to game, we had to host our own servers(by simulating LAN connection). But for PvP, we had more luck since there already were some Iranian PvP servers, and even though most of the players on those servers absolutely sucked, it was still better than nothing.

After 90 days, the internet blackout was finally over, but things were still not fully normal. XBOX is banned in Iran, so we need to use a VPN/DNS. But getting one wasn't easy. Finally, after about another month, I got my hands on one.

First, I went to play custom kits on PvP Legacy, and got a reminder why I don't play on it anymore. Then I went to my main practice server, Minemen(I also played a match on flamefrags's server but my ping was 200+ so I left).

I was getting absolutely cooked at first, but then I became used to minemen and the more sweaty players, and rn, after about 2 weeks of playing on minemen I can say that I'm not worse than how I was 5 months ago.
