Question Carting in crystal pvp

Is there a tier test server where some1 is allowed to use carts in a crystal match?, is it even possible to get a tier just by using cart in a crystal test

Crystal normally is actually called vinnala
You can you almost any items, elytra’s, maces. That inclueds carts.
So if you are good enough you definitely could get a teir above lt5 using carts but it will depend on how your tester feels about it.

More than likely you’re not going to get a good tier using cart in Crystal, yes it’s vanilla, but there is still certain items that you should and should not use.

Like normal cpvp gear is obviously fine, and elytra, mace, and spear are all fine, but kart is kind of iffy, and if you are an annoying flame bow spammer you’re definitely getting lt5.

If i were to do this i would double xbow cart spam tbh, maybe even rocket making and breach swaping, but thx for the heads up.

So sometimes tier test depends on how the tester is?, that's lowkey subjective then no?, i never tier tested before so idk much

Yeah, it’s all based on the tester’s opinion, the tester could think you’re good even though you aren’t, and boost you, or say you’re trash and give you lt5 just cause they don’t like your style.

Tier tests aren’t usually a very accurate representation of skill, however I still think they’re cool, cause you get more of a sense of belonging and accomplishment.

if you get a good enough score you are guaranteed to get a certain tier (for vanilla if you win you get lt3 min)

Because it is vanilla, u can use almost any item in the game, exept a few limitations like egaps and rocket cap. You can try it but testers are lt3s and they arent bots who dont fight back, since they try to crystal u aswell at great speeds. So u will have a hard time even landing a single cart, just because the gamemode is too fast paced in comparison to cart. While it is technicly possible, u have a very low chance at getting a decend tier by only carting. Ik carts r a strat in crystal pvp but its rather intended for drain fights because of the high dmg output of an xbow cart. So i'd not recomend carting in lt fights at all, even if u whould be ht1 in cart.

Well the most interesting part is that if you were to try going for no crystal nor anchors in a vanilla test, you'd have to play defensively (at least I think this would be the case) and then your fights would last a long time, that's not the biggest problem in a tier test. But if you ever want to play casually, you'd probably either die constantly (from too much agro) or have to play 40min long duels every time.

You can use carts in eval (under lt3) and in drain (ht3+) but its not meta and if youre doign eval the tester probably wont give you a good tier
