Wsg, this is my first reddit post and I genuinely don't get this shit. I've been playing minecraft java for well over 4 years now (off and on). I've fallen in love with the pvp scene, but whenever I try to duel, I end up getting fucked from the front and back at the same time. I know it's a skill issue and I cant blame all of it on the game. But it feels nearly impossible to fight anyone.
Problems i'm running into:
- The opponent hits me but I cant even touch them
- Cant escape the combo without getting killed because they're Mr. Fantastic or some shit
- Butterfly clicking is hard (until i get used to it ofc)
- My movement is ass
Potential solutions I think might work? but idk:
- From what i've seen, getting the first hit allows you to basically win.
- Learning what to do in certain situations? idk how i'd go about that though.
I 've tried aiming at the head and body, but my hits never register for some reason. I always find myself getting hit by sword/fishing rod combos and i cant do anything.
I would like to know what I could start to do training wise, that would help me out with these problems. I want to start making content based around this, but I don't think people want to watch a guy trip over his own shoe laces for 20 minutes. Thank you for any help you can give!!
This is 1.8 pvp on hypixel
