In the text you quoted I never said the person failed to get diamonds late game.
Thats the whole idea behind it, both players will break their armor faster
Not sure either
True, but some of them do (like 50%?) which makes that irrelevant.

[QUOTE="awesomebutter234, post: 538535, member: 159110"]If you are stuck in combat you are dead with leather armor
Why? if you have enough leather armor you aren't dead at all. Also, in late game you could have gotten diamonds to make iron armor.
I don't get this one, if you are away, you are away. Also, building a skybridge takes way longer than sprinting, and skybridges can be broken.
Getting hit doesn't mean an inevitable death, also, if you have a punch bow and stand on a steep mountain, no way that they are gonna hit you.
Yes, easily. I can do it on OP mode, so I guess "the best pvper" also can.
Oh, and by the way, technically it's 100% guaranteed "the best pvper" will win, because that's notch. No, not because he is good at pvp, but because he has OP everywhere on any server ever. It's his own game.
Hit them both, kill them seperately, or just don't get in such a situation.
True, the more armor the harder it is to kill you.
Average Cubecraft player is not that smart.
This is over-exaggerated
If your armor is down those apples won't help in the slightest.
Nah, never seen that before.
Then play with friends.:p[/QUOTE]
You are missing one word:stuck
In those scenarios you can't get away, also just because you got away doesn't mean that the people that were killing you aren't chasing you down, you keep refereeing to the bow which is not what it should be to get kills.
What's the point of getting a sword or an axe then if you will just shoot people off the cliff? If you hit them both congratulations you may have broken one of their armor pieces but both your boots and helmet are gone, 1set of iron armour can last longer than 3 minutes guaranteed(unless there are two people or more attacking you.)
As King mentioned, OP takes almost no skill, stuck in a sword fight spam, get in a fight spam, not going to bother with fighting bow spam a punch 1 bow. Also OP encourages spamming which is something 1.9 is heavily against.(cool down timer) Since you can't kill the person why not spam them down? If you eat a golden apples you will last longer due to the resistance. As you said cube players are not that smart and I can't argue with that since I think the age group is around 8-12 year olds. Just because it could happen does not mean it won't happen if it does what then? You could be pvp master with iron armor and you are against another person in diamond, guess who wins? The person in diamond due to the fact that they spammed you down.
1.9 Op eggwars is 1.8 in disguise and I really don't like that, if I wanted to do spam combat I would go to 1.8 eggwars.(Not sure why my reply messed up)
