Ech knockback is just too basic to explain, and I was too lazy to write some stuff about it.

Well, everyone says that I'm a cheater, or just a pro. I'm just a normal player. Here's some tips how I win, or just kill people.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= KITS =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Always use the KITS you're best with.

Fisherman - You get 5 fish, and a fishing rod. Use the fishing rod to knock people off, or prevent other players from bridging into your island. You can use fish just to not getting hungry. DEFENSIVE KIT.

Cookie Monster - You get 20 cookies, 5 wheat and 3 cocoa beans. I don't really see the use of the kit, but you just never run out off food, and you can make more cookies. SURVIVALIST KIT.

Enchanter - You get enchanting table and stack of exp bottles. Usefull for enchanting diamonds swords you could find in the chests, or bows. You can get more exp bottles in chests, they're spawning in chests very often. Just don't forget to mine the enchantment table after placing it, because other players can use it to their advantage. OFFENSIVE KIT. (Recommended)

Swordsman - There's 3 of them. Level 1, 2, 3. Better save up for level 3, because the level 1,2 are kind of useless. You get Sharpness 2 iron sword. It's my most favourite kit, because it gives you most powerful sword in the start. Use this advantage to take off enemies quickly. OFFENSIVE KIT. (Recommended)

Healer: You get Instant Health 2 potion. Use this when low on health, inside a fight, when fighting someone with bows, and you're at low health, just drink the potion, and you're set to go. SURVIVALIST KIT

Tank - It gives you 3 level choices. 1,2,3. Of course you can save up to level 3, because it gives you the most protection. You get the whole Iron set with level 3, and it would be harder to pick you off in the start. DEFENSIVE KIT. (Recommended)

Pyrotechnician - It gives yo you flint n steel, and fire resistance chain chestplate. Useful in Rainbow map, because half of the islands in rainbow are out of wool. OFFENSIVE KIT. (Recommended)

Miner - It gives you 3 level choices. 1,2,3. Of course oyu can save up to level 3, because it gives you the iron pickaxe, and you can just obtain ores really quickly. SURVIVALIST KIT.

Snowball Warrior - It gives you 16 snowballs, and you can use this to knockdown fresh respawned people, meanwhile they're looting the first chest. Or just save up the snowballs and then knock people down when they're building a bridge. OFFENSIVE KIT/DEFESIVE KIT.

Ancient Disruptor - Gives you 30 or 20 cobwebs. (Can't remember) Which you can use to place inside the player's island, to win some time. It's also usefull to win some time by just placing a big wall around your island. DEFENSIVE KIT.

Ore Gatherer - Gives you 5 Coal ore, 5 Iron ore, 5 Gold ore, 5 Redstone ore, and a Diamond ore. If you find a pickaxe in the starter chest, then you're set to use the kit! Just go underground, dig some fresh coal, craft a furnace, then smelt the ores. Use the materials you smelted visely. SURVIVALIST KIT.

Archer - Starting off with 5 arrows, and a bow. Very popular kit, use it in start to take off 1 or 2 people, with 3 full charged shoots, or 4 rapid shoots. OFFENSIVE KIT. (Recommended)

Egg - Allowed only for IRON+. You get stack of eggs. It's very similar to Snowball warrior, but a little bit better, because there's a chance of spawning a chicken in enemy's island when throwing an egg. Use it for knocking down enemy from bridge, or just making a chicken farm, hehe. DEFENSIVE KIT.

Bomber - Allowed only for IRON+. You get 10 TnT and 2 redstone torches.. Use this kit to explode people that are camping underground, or make traps with redstone, but if you kill a guy with tnt, and you're too late to hit him, you don't get the kill . Also useful as for a human cannon, hehe. OFFENSIVE KIT. (Recommended)

Enderman - Allowed only for GOLD+. It says you get 3 ender pearls, but you actually get only 1. Use the enderpearl to teleport into the middle island, and loot everything, or for a big surprise attack, or escape. Don't throw the ender pearl if low at health, there's a possibility for you to die. (Recommended)

Apple Master - Allowed only for GOLD+. I don't really know how many apples you get in the kit, but as far as I know, you get 1 gapple. Gapple stands for God Apple. When you eat a gappe, there's fire resistance, regeneration for about 30 secs, and some other effects. VERY powerful if you're inside a big fight. (Recommended)

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= TIPS -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Some tips I always use.

CHESTS - Always take the items you will use in fight. Never take EXP bottles, leather armor, or such items, or you can take it if you feel like you will use them sometime. You should take items listed below:

+ Building Materials (Wood/Stone)
+ Diamond Sword (If you have swordsman kit, level 3, don't take it.)
+ Arrows/Bow
+ Lava
+ Diamond Armour
+ Diamond Pickaxe
+ Snowballs/Eggs
+ Golden Apples.
+ Fire (In rainbow map)

START - Good start, will lead you to victory. Take off the strong people that use good kits. I recommend killing donators first, because most of the time they have the one of the bestiest kits.

PARKOUR - Don't be afraid to parkour, well if you know HOW to parkour of course. Parkouring would lead you to death or victory most of the times, so be careful.

BRIDGING - Okay, so there's 2 methods of bridging = Slow and fast. I use fast method most of the times. Slow building, means building a bridge with walls, but it's a bit slow. Fast building, means building a bridge without walls, but it's faster than slow building. Choose one you that suits you.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Fighting -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

JUMPING - Jumping while fighting will do critical damage. But jump carefully, because jumping increases your knockback.

STRAFING - Easy to master, just press A, D, and just confuse the enemy. There's a 40% chance of the enemy to miss.

KNOCKING - Always try to knock the enemy off the island. When someone eats a gapple, don't attack the player, just try to get him on the ledge, or bridge, and knock him/her off with snowballs/eggs.

SHOOTING - Okay, this will be complicated to explain. Shooting, is skill, you need to master. If someone is building a 2x2 wall, it's easy to kill him, because you can still hit the player's top. By playing a lot with a bow, you should master it fast, probably. Always shoot in the direction player is moving. Try to study the player's dodging strategy, and you probably will kill the guy.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- MAPS -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Map strategies. I don't know many of the strategies on the maps, so sorry. =]

RAINBOW - Beastiests kits are pyromaniac, or swordsman kits. You can actually parkour from island to island in rainbow, because they're very close to each other. The round could go really fast, but be careful not to miss the jumps.

TEMPLE - Take the first 2 chests in house, and that's all... Bridge to someone as fast as you can, meanwhile they're looting other stuff.

CANDY - Islands are close, but not that close to parkour. Try to build some blocks on the candy canes, and then jump. Should be sucessful.

NETHER - Nether has 3 chests, so the best strategy is to loot all the building blocks in the first chest, and then rush into other player's island. Because other players should loot the other 2 underground chests, and you have a chance of a great kill.

DESERT - In desert, fastly mine some blocks, or pick some blocks from chest, and QUICKLY bridge to other player. Because most likely players just dig the wood, and loots the underground chests. Also if you're not feeling like quick attacking, there's a third chest hidden in the underground.

END - Not really a big strategy, but as always, just pick off some people that are looting other chests. Also try to get the top chest when you respawn from your capsule.

SNOWY - In the starting chest, take building materials, rush into other player's island when he's underground. Then you can hide behind a tree when he's out, and surpirse attack the player.

POKEMON - It's a glitchy at the moment, so no big strategies, but you can just camp in the pokeball, or just rush into others pokeball.

JUNGLE - There's no chests in island 3 and island 12. So don't join the last, or third.

MUSHROOM - I don't really know many tactics here, but last time I played it, it's pretty simple. Just climb on top of the giant mushroom, start bridging to other island about 3-7 blocks. Then leap onto other mushroom, and start attacking others.

TEMPLE - Since there's only 2 chests, I recommend you to only loot 1 and rush into other island. If you have a kit with a bow, then try to kill the enemy quick as possible, not letting him get into the house.

BEACH - There is some big trees in this map, so use it as your advantage. Because there's underground chests, you're most likely to get a boost on killing the first player.

BIOMES - GIGANTIC MAP. I don't really have any strategies here, but the one I use, is to getting into middle as fast as I can.

I hope it helped you at least a bit. It's a long guide, so yeah.. Leave in the comments what you think...
