Java Limit The Scout Kit to 1 Speed Potion

As most people know, speed is a huge advantage in pvp. It is both harder to hit someone with speed and if they ever get low they can run away and heal up without being hit. On the other hand, if you are low and try to run away, you can not as the person with speed easily catches back up to you. The current scout kit in Skywars gives you 3 speed potions and a stone sword. These speed potions usually last you the whole game. Since the only good way to counter speed is with speed itself, I am suggesting that the scout kit gets a reduction in the number of speed potions it gives, down to 1. This would limit the kit to just be useful for 1 or 2 kills, as the speed potion will wear off.

Speed potions already don't last long at all. Reducing the amount of potions you get would make the kit pretty much useless. So it's a no for me.

I like the kit, I don't use it a lot myself but I am OK with the amount of speed pots.

“usually last the whole game”, I’m sorry, where did you get that from? They certainly don’t

Unless you waste your potion by using it on simple movement, in most skywars games you only need about 4 or so kills to win, unless its a 24 player map. If you use 1 potion per fight, and we assume either you or someone else tried to clean because lets be honest, its skywars and everyone does, that gives 4 kills and the win. If I use the kit I can easily win with using only 2 of the potions and a 3rd one to run if necessary. In OP, sure, its not enough for the whole game, but not many games are in OP. So yes, 3 is plenty to last the whole game.

The scout kit currently seems to be by far the best kit to me, I generally always pick that one. So I agree that it should be nerfed to be balanced with other kits even though I like speeding around. I often pick up speed potions as well so having 7 or 8 in my inventory at once isn't that uncommon.

Speed potions do not last long and limiting the amount that you get to just one would just make the Scout Kit just about useless in my opinion. It’s a no from me

If: speed vs no speed'' is too hard for you, try something else to kill him ;))
Like.. lava! everybody hates that so you can also report some people for swearing,
or the void? No one can escape that.
