Influence of MCSG and UHC style of PvP by GrantInPhoenix May 6, 2015 at 11:05 AM UTC

Hello Guys! Terra here and i wanna start off by this server is really great, thanks to my friend MrChappy
(who is also a friend of mine IRL) for introducing me to this server.

Now anyways on to the topic, As some of you may know in some of the games that i played i keep mentioning
stuff like "Fishing Rod OP" or like "F5 Tactic or F3+A Spam to see players in reloading chunks" and etc. etc.
Well this is because i came from servers which bind tactics like these to make PvP gameplay more and more
technique, strategic, and interestingly better i guess... 

Now
you may wonder how are these "strategies/tactics" you are saying play out or how does it work?
Well if you take a look at these videos below

welcome! :D

Lol I <3 Huahwi and Grapeapplesauce :-) These are SG tactics xD

Sevoo May 6, 2015 at 11:05 AM UTC

No pics no clicks xD

But well said, different gamemodes influence how you play.

My_Old_Man May 6, 2015 at 11:05 AM UTC

Yeah, this is sort of how I changed after I left avicus, to play more strategic based, like sg. Now both game modes merge a bit.

EXACTLY my Friend! since PvP styles like SG and UHC can be used in almost any gamemode these days

Well, expect to see UHC soon...
hype?

emilizzle May 6, 2015 at 2:05 PM UTC

Well the only 2 people which I can't kill easy on this server are Asian :P I don't think it matters.

Add UHC!!!!! Pleaaaass!

Legoche May 6, 2015 at 5:05 PM UTC

Add UHC!!!!! Pleaaaass!
The problems with adding UHC, from a previous UHC host:

I personally like the idea of non auto hosted UHCs, for example, you could apply to be a host and host matches once a week or something. This may not work because of the player amount on Avicus, buts its getting better.

smitdalt May 6, 2015 at 5:05 PM UTC

What is the point of this? I am well aware that there are other servers with different gamemodes I don't need a forum thread to tell me about it.

My_Old_Man May 6, 2015 at 8:05 PM UTC

pope_panda May 6, 2015 at 8:05 PM UTC

maybe weekly reddit UHCs to draw in some of the UHC community?

1. Huawhi, really?
2. Who cares about lag.. It doesn't really matter.
3. These "PvP Tips" you're posting here will most likely disappear when the servers switch from 1.8 to 1.9. So far what 1.9 is trying to do is to kill the few good gameplay that's left.

_Phyre May 6, 2015 at 9:05 PM UTC

Not to be rude, but Huahwi is just stupid

1) Saying "pingers" aren't a thing, FFS who is he? Is he some sort of PvP god? Hell no, I beat him in his stream...
2) He can't pvp whatsoever... Without secondaries, he's trash

And all of his pvp tips, videos... I honestly hate them.

i do see your point, but ppl dont rly need to tend time to these "PvP Tips and Tricks" i just realized this was more of a "Assessing its strength" kind of thing but yeah

GrantInPhoenix May 7, 2015 at 6:05 AM UTC

Also note i may or may not do some Custom PvP Resource Pack releases here and there (Default Edits, Edits, Custom, etc.)

I have always wondered about a black and white resource pack... Where everything is white, gray and black except for players, and the monument... I think it would make rushing alot easier imo

Hype! Welcome to the server, Terra! Which country in asia are you from? c;

Considering the best ping for sword pvp is 100-150, pingers as they're currently thought of (less than 20 ping) don't exist

Okiba May 7, 2015 at 11:05 PM UTC

Hi terra! I am Filipino as well :DDDD but I live in Mississauga,Canada :3

Im going to have to disagree, Huahwi is right about the pingers part.

There are no such thing as pingers, since if your a good player you can beat one. For instance all you need to do is strafe. I get 12 ms and people easily beat me, but thats almost always because of 20 fps.

You can beat a pinger, you just need strats.

As to Huahwi, I think he does suck, all I need is 60 fps and Im fine.

His PC is 2 good lol.

glad to see a reply like this, yesterday, idk how or what but i had like 300 ping on average and i took out a 4v1 of another team w/ my bad ping (but for that sequence i was getting nice hit connection/reach while i was strafing) and the fact that 2 or 3 of them had like less than 100 or even less than 75 ping on average and had full iron-iron sword (got called a hacker by the last guy i killed in the 4v1 cuz i 11 hearted him cuz i got like a penta-hit towards the last succession of sword-hit-trades) then another 2 guys came after and i killed them as well w/ 7 or 8 hearts left.

Wow, nice!

There really isnt such thing as a pinger, because all ping has his advantages.

For instance Miguel uses his lag, which is like 400 ms, to get extra kb. Its also a lot easier for him to strafe because everyone sees him as a teleporting nub! xP

In my case, I get 14-24 ms, and I take advantage of it by practicing my strafes and kb tactics a lot. Also when my aim is good I can combo someone easily or get double crits. 

All Im saying is different ping has his advantages.

GrantInPhoenix May 8, 2015 at 5:05 PM UTC

ty! and ppl should learn that there is no such thing as ping, if u know they have good ping u cant say pinger cuz its not their fault for having good connection/ping.

look at me i have 300 ping on average and i can still pull this off http://prntscr.com/72ziof

GrantInPhoenix May 8, 2015 at 5:05 PM UTC

and sometimes i dont need to rely on straight up pvp, i can play defensive and use a vanguard (strong morale point/chokepoint) to get kills like using basic traps like holes then a 1 block gap so i can kill them under, etc.

tbh high ping 200+ makes it harder to play. Playing pub OCN is no problem, but you'll notice how much harder it is with higher ping once you get to high level of play (ie. tournament invitationals)

Ill be honest, his PC sucks as well.

Sure he has a GTX 770, but an i7-970?... Never heard of that crap processor

At least he gets 60+ fps =P

Try living with 20-30 fps xD

GrantInPhoenix May 12, 2015 at 10:05 AM UTC

thanks to all those who greeted me welcome, i know its been a rough start w/ me yanking on ppl w/ harsh words unsportsmanlike attitude but i will try my best not to tolerate those who try to bring me down or whenever i just feel to annoyed/irritated, i dont want my reputation to go all "hes such an a**hole" and such and such, so i wanna apologize to the ppl i called stuff like "ez" "kid" "nub" etc.

i understand if you hate me but im willing to change for the better

keller183 May 12, 2015 at 5:05 PM UTC

Huahwi is a bow spammer, alright at sword, i almost killed him in one of his streams :P (he had half a heart)
Ngal is life. (Ryker is better tho)

UHC is bezt gamemode.

U should add this to that list 4 deh lols

Also i believe doing "F3+A Spam to see players in reloading chunks" is not aloud, if it isnt it should be lol

Rubikscrafter May 19, 2015 at 12:05 AM UTC

Factions too? UHC and Factions would be great additions!
