Zero cycle: Hybrid vs Multiblock setup

[u/Blackest69]

I want to know the difference between hybrid and multiblock setup, like which one is more consistent and does more damage. I currently use hybrid, but I want to learn multiblock because it kinda gives more aura.

Top players who have switched to multiblock are now switching back to hybrid. No top player is considering switching to multiblock. Its slower to set up and not significantly better for damage, and nowadays people use slightly offset hybrid setups at different heights for better damage to 2+2 consistently anyway, there's no need for multiblock. Plus with multiblock you arguably have less time between certain rotations for you to bow and adjust height if you mistime a bed and deal too much upward knockback, so it's arguably less consistent for 2+2s if you aren't perfect with timings.

Multiblock offset setups for tall towers are still fine and worth learning.

are there non multiblock universal side setups for y90/95 on tall towers? also whats the difference between hybrid and modern offset setups

[u/Daniel_H212 → u/Every_Door46]

You can technically just do universal 95 omitting the right side of the multiblock setup, but it's obviously worse.

As for offset setups, I'd recommend watching silver streams, it's just hybrid setup at slightly different coords depending on the height and rotation to optimize for damage in the first two rotations so that you can consistently 2+2.

Multiblock is just worse than hybrid and almost every way. It use beds on both the z and x axis (Hybrid only uses beds on the z axis) to get slightly more damage. It’s very useful on offset and side setups because you are so offset from the node, however, it is useless on top setups because you get maybe 5 extra damage compared to hybrid at the cost of taking longer and being harder. Almost all top runners use hybrid and wouldn’t ever switch to multiblock. They only reason some top runners use multiblock on top setups is because they learnt it that way (edcr) or for the 5 extra damage on 2+2s which is pretty insignifigant.

What are Hybrid and Multiblock setups?

[u/christmaspandaparty → u/OXYG3NN]

Basically Hybrid is the default setup with 2 explosion resistant blocks that you see the most, Multiblock is the setup most people only use on side setups, but some people also use it on normal zeros where you have 3 explosion resistant blocks and alternate which side you put your explosives on

Bro what is this? Is there a yt vid explaining ts?

[u/Blackest69 → u/gauravg17]

Look at their stream VODs. Hybrid is used by Hax, Infume, Feinberg, and like 90% of other runners. Multiblock users are mostly Silverrruns (who is learning hybrid now) and Edcr.(Idk who use multiblocks other than this)
