1.8 PvP isn't spam clicking

[JusticeDeBouwer]

It's just sad that many people thinks it's just spam clicking but it isn't.

People say that because you can click faster and a lot more compared to 1.9+ which has hit delay.

Well, I would say 1.8 pvp is a bit spam clicking, but also added with strategy.

It’s not all spam clicking, we know about the reaction time, combos, rodding - its not easy for sure.

But it is a lot of spam clicking

Specifying a gamode/combat version is always a controversial topic.
For some it is just clicking fast, and for some it is about thinking faster and having faster reactions.
It's really up to everyone's individual opinions.

Compared to 1.9 I would say it is spam clicking, however 1.8 needs more strategy to kill due to using different skills.

1.8 is spamm at 1.9 your blocks are already going away (Glitch) at 23cps

 

[zSeann]

I noticed, if you get high cps, you will get ghosthits in 1.8..

I click 4 cps low as can be but somehow i win its because its not all about click speed its about combos and rods and everything and block hitting get a grip and get some aim

Fact is, doesn't matter if you can hit 20 cps if you give other players the low ground

There is a lot of controversy regarding this topic, however, I think I can assume why players think this way. Unlike the older players who've experienced and come to love the classic fast-paced Minecraft PvP mechanics, newer players are quickly acclimated to the modern 1.9 PVP and its unique meta. With this in mind, it's not that hard to conclude that many players (myself included a bit) are very biased towards 1.9 combat as that's what we're adjusted to. Players that say 1.8 is bad purely because of its 'spam PVP' are justifying their opinion based off of what they think it is due to having an inconsiderate amount of actual knowledge on its mechanics, meta, and gameplay style; along with little experience actually trying 1.8's combat system.

1.8 is spam clicking compared to 1.9+ It has strafing and combos and stuff, but 1.9 also has that. Because of its cooldowns, 1.9 requires more skill, precision and strategy. Missing a few hits in 1.8 isnt that big of a deal, but can be a game changer in 1.9

1.9 reach feels weird

1.9 reach feels weird

So do 1.9 combos imo
