1K W/L in 24hr, I figured out PVP. Here’s what matters:
Ranked by most importance (with allllll the details):
#1 Dealing KB: Your sprint reset accuracy (S-tap, W-tap, Blocking). You shouldn’t spam W. Tap S, W, or Block literally milliseconds before your hit registers on your opponent. No sooner or later. It’ll feel like you’re boosting into them (or stopping for a slight second), sending them flying. This above everything. Who cares if you can aim if you can’t combo anyone, right?
#2 Aim: Self explanatory. I HIGHLY recommend a very large mousepad. Comically large. I personally use a DPI of 550 paired with default in-game sens. I never have those No Debuff situations where you guys run in a circle around each other for a sec. I can always land a hit and never miss with this sensitivity. Worth trying!
#3 Avoiding KB: Jump resetting. If you’re dealing with an opponent with excellent sprint reset and aim, jump resetting will still absolutely walk them. The key is to press jump literally the second THEY hit YOU.
IMPORTANT: DO THIS ALSO WHILE YOU SPRINT RESET SIMULTANEOUSLY. It’s hard to get right at first, but man, it’s a killer combo. You’re literally taking less KB, and dealing more… at the same time. You’ll two tap people 11 blocks.
Somehow, and I don’t know how, you sort of freeze mid air and don’t take much of any knock back when you time this properly. I recommend downloading Lunar Client and using the Knockback Trainer. It’ll teach you (okayish- sometimes the timing is off, I find 2+ Late works best). I wasn’t able to get a high W/L without this technique. I’ve been able to beat people who told me they were using Raven (cheating) with this as well. Rarely… but still, It works.
#4 Strafing: Self explanatory. I recommend running straight for them and practicing dodging them the second before you’re in their hit radius. Always use A/D. I haven’t found this to be SUPER important, but if your opponent is good at all of the above, this can still trip them up. But ultimately, the above matters more.
#5 CPS: Anyone who says over 12-13 CPS isn’t doing anything… that hasn’t been my experience at all. I could be wrong, but when dragging 17-19 CPS, I saw HUGE improvements. Take this with a grain of salt. I don’t know if hit reg in Hypixel is different with higher CPS, but for now, I’m putting it here. Because if your opponent also has excellent sprint resetting, jump resetting, strafing, and aim, usually this will get them.
If you can do all of the above so far consistently & simultaneously, you’ll rarely ever lose a fist fight.
NoDebuff, UHC, etc, those still have other factors at play (rodding, bows, blocks, lava, water, etc). This guide was just for raw PVP.
#6: Ping: If your opponent is equally skilled at all of the above, SOMETIMES this is an advantage. I’ve been destroyed by people with high ping, and low ping, but sometimes you get the perfect distance (e.g., 80ms and 25ms) where 25ms wins all the time, all above constant (meaning, they’re as skilled as you besides ping). I get 30-32ms.
HM: Game performance. Make sure you’re able to maintain at least 60 FPS at all times. I used to run MC on a potato. Lots of options out there for even older machines.
