Idm stuff about conflicts of interest but I really hope they find a professional pvper like Theo to commentate. Otherwise the commentary may be quite uninformed or surface level like on day 1 last time.

Tournament Will Flowtives be playing Pvpchamps

Ignoring conflicts of interest which is kind of problematic, I would be disappointed without his commentary as he really understood the lore and mechanics behind the game that I don’t think other commentators except maybe Theo could bring.

Discussion the more i play the worse i get - 1.9

6 Upvotes

im pretty good at sword

now, i find myself playing weird, one day i play well, the next day i lose to randoms getting 5-1ed...

i feel like playing LESS often makes me get better, i dont know how but it just works.

thing is i dont know how to get better, all the good sword players gatekeep (rightfully so) and there is no place where i can understand when and how to use some techniques that many people dont

my crits and stuff arent bad but my gamesense sometimes is excellent and sometimes sucks.

i struggle with high ping players but i can fight low ping players pretty well

thanks

Do you think this player was on an alt, or hacking, or both?

I was in a cpvp ffa today, and I invited this player who was insanely good, this wasn’t one of his best clips, but he was easily tier 2 imo. Do you think he’s cheating, or on an alt, or both, I’m not sure if he’s cheating because he has really good game sense, but idk. Also, if he’s on an alt, what’s his main account?

Pretty disappointing to see a top player can get banned with no solid evidence and by the admins own admission for optics.

Minecraft Keybinds Help for lt4 Skill (Crystal PvP)

2 Upvotes

1 - 1 - Sword

2 - 2 - Pearls

3 - 3 - Gapples

4 - V - Obsidian

5 - Q - Crystals

6 - R - Anchors

7 - T - Glowstone

8 - G - Totem

9 - C - Pickaxe

in my last post, lots of people told my to change my anchor keybinds, because they overload my index finger, which is maybe why my anchors are kind of slow right now. I'm not really sure right now what to change them to though, and would appreciate any input; the main thing i'm considering is Anchor: Tab, Glowstone: R, and keeping my other keybinds as they are, but my concern with that is it makes it harder for me to press my movement keys while anchoring. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Question Looking for Kit Testers

1 Upvotes

I have a kit I've been working on for a little while and wanted to see how it fares against others. Current meta, SMP, NetherPot, etc. You can also bring your own custom kits, I am looking to play against all different styles and setups, not just established metas and kits. Skill does not matter, all are welcome, this is for testing and seeing if I have something, or if I'm grasping for straws.

DM me for more info, I hope to hear from you soon.

Anyone else in Australia experiencing higher ping on Minemen?

5 Upvotes

I'm from Melbourne, Australia, and I used to get around 90-95ms on Minemen's Asian server. Recently, my ping has randomly increased to around 165ms, even though my internet connection is completely stable.

Has anyone else in Australia noticed a similar increase in ping?

I've heard some people saying that Minemen might have changed the location of their Asian servers, which could explain the higher ping for Australian players.

Does anyone know if that's true, or if there's any way to fix this?

Question Mctiers situation

1 Upvotes

The mctiers site is down rn prob because Marlow stopped paying for it or deleted it and I've also heard that it was stopped because Dr.donut or what not, wanted people to use his server but that's beside the point really either way do we think that the staff and stuff will be able to reclaim the tierlist or is it just highly unlikely

If you take the best Hypixel PvPers and put them against best MMC PvPers in 1v1s, who's gonna win? Who has better mechanics?

What happened to mctiers...

29 Upvotes

The old website no longer works and this new one has completely random top players??? Wtf is happening

EDIT: I've seen a lot of top players say that mctiers and pvptiers are shutting down because of mcpvp. I guess they just wanna slowly migrate the tierlist to mcpvp.com 🤷‍♂️

Btw the website in the screenshot is completely unrelated

Discussion Crystal pvp ai practice bot

1 Upvotes

https://youtu.be/pw5f4BFNULM?si=spvpoClMhwJcLEzQ

i made a crystal pvp ai that is around LT4 / HT4 (optimistically according to mcpvp.com lmao)... i dont want to harm your community i would rather use this to help you guys and make it into a practice bot or an api for people to use etc. If i am doing something bad please tell me and offer me suggestions, its a real neural network so it does adapt in real time its not like theobalds practice bot etc, it does a different move every time its not deterministic since i usually always sample the model i never use argmax. Again i just wanted to showcase this am sorry if i offend anyone i just wanted to show off this thing i made <3
