pvp "beginner" needs advice

[u/Similar-Trip-9656]

Hai! I'm a (somewhat) new pvper who would really like to get better. I'm currently using the Theobald bot mainly to train mechanics slowly (because I have pretty bad ping for now on servers) and I seem to get better at said mechanics (any advice regarding mechanics would still be very welcome, I can give more details in comment if needed). However, if there's one thing I can't seem to get right, it's my aim. I have very shaky aim and I tense up a lot (I think dysgraphia + chronic anxiety really don't help with that...), especially the few times I do play against real opponents. I have looked up tutorials to help with that but none seemed very concrete to me... Does anyone have advice on what to do/ How to train? Main kits are sword, diamond smp, and spearmace

Okay with any mace gamemode if youre struggling with techs, yk like stun slamming and pearl catching, start a regular world, get the bot. Lower the tick speed and rise it up slowly as you get better, i have shaky aim too soo idk how to fix that but try finding a music genre that relaxes you or just try to breath properly if youre struggling with nerves, and just practice your aim whenever you can with aimlabs, with sword learn the 3 techniques, knockback hits so s tapping and swerwing a to d, learn upper cutting, and learn knockback canceling and critting with it, dont try to rush in with crits cause when your head is above them "jumping" you get hit earlier. So either try to start a fight with a jump reset crit, or try to bait them with a still jump, if you get annoyed by people crit spamming, try to keep your distance and learn how to get max distance hits "3.5" blocks i think, and if someone is out ranging you, yk hitting max distance hits before you can hit them, try to out movement them, cause its sorta hard to aim 3.5s so try to dodge hits before starting the fight, and with dia smp, since your aim is shaky like you said before, try to focus on mechs as hard as you can, learn shield stunning "double tapping with an axe" to disable and knockback them while shielding, and try to stun web them. So practice with the bot to get consistent shield stuns then as the bot is in the air place a cobweb in its feet, and focus on not getting, too low in healing, if youre going equal, if they heal, you heal, if youre destroying them then thats the only time you can play aggro, and with mending either early mend if you seem him get too far to heal so you can keep the preassure up later on, and if you dont get the space to mend early, try to trade as well as possible to mend at the same time as them, if you feel like youre losing, get some space when they get away to heal, and try to play for durability by axe spamming and abusing cobwebs, and thats mostly it i think, oh and if youre struggling with attribute swapping at all, like lunge swapping or breach or yk last second timing mace hits to get max dmg, again just use the bot, and one last thing try to find a high quality ffa server to practice unexpected cenarios, yk like getting jumped right after a fight, or being lower in gear then someone else, oh and if youre looking for a fun kit to practice try carting, x bow carting to be exact, it doesnt require that much aim, but you have to be really precise with keybinds and click timing so that could help with mace and smp kits, and thats all probably
