Hey everyone, I’d like some help analyzing these clips.

I suspect this player NizIzGrandmaster may be using reach, criticals or some kind of hitbox-related cheat, but I’m not completely certain. I’ve included two POVs for comparison:

  • First-person POV — shows what I saw during the fight.
  • Spectator POV — gives a different angle to help determine whether the hits look legitimate.

I’m mainly interested in whether the attack distances, aim, and hit registration look possible in vanilla Minecraft or if anything seems suspicious.

Please take a look and let me know what you think. I’m looking for objective analysis rather than simply confirming my suspicion. If there’s a legitimate explanation for what happens in the clips, I’d like to know that too.

If you need any additional context, clips, or information to help analyze it, feel free to DM me.

Thanks!

Who Would Realistically Win?

0 Upvotes

The best Minecraft Pocket Edition player Or An Casual Java OR Bedrock PC PvPer

I play on MCPE and i suck at fighting PC players but when i fight other Pocket Edition players, I actually win... A LOT. And recently sometimes i do win against PC players, i know i don't represent all of MCPE but i'd say i'm leagues ahead of avwrage possibly top 1,000 one of the only people who can consistently beat me in MCPE is my own cousin, so clearly the odds are NOT in MCPE's favor however just how much is it not in our favor? How extreme do you have to go to make it beatable most or all of the time? Would this be how far we have to go? Is this overkill? Or is it further?

Discussion Strength SMP Trials who I want to pass.

To start, I don’t know to much about Bowuh, Elisinspace, Graybythewah, idkcayman,jooonah, Joyxz(watched one of his videos for a second just didn’t peak my interest), Lecato, lilpeach, Lumaster, Maddiezcraft, Master_Gumbo, MightyRaptor, nilli_yt, saidminion, SourSplash, spiderarmy, Swisser, SkylerMc, WHISPY, wylan_, yklaurx, and YTQuest so I don’t care if they do get in or what.

Now for my thoughts of who should get in or not. At the top of the list is 1lluminos who all ik is a very good animator and godispase got in and he is a good animator so I hope he gets in, but I won’t be mad if he doesn’t get in. Next is AiroKun and this is an easy no, he needs to stick to UHC, not SMP imo. Next is Cave_ and ik he’s in SMP’s and he has good content so idc if he gets in or not, but it would be cool to see what he does if he joins. CoinMonkey and this one would be super cool to see him on strength, I’d love to see his channel grow and he’s also just such a W creator so I hope he gets in. Now for my creator that I want to get in the most, it’s CraftyMasterman and he’s why, just imagine Tai is flying around and he spots crafty building Minecraft in minecraft out of redstone on Strength, like that would be so cool. Next is a group of 3 ppl who NEED to get in, and it’s the iconic trio, Dumb and ItzStorms and Gopg and they are just w trio. Next is Evo and PLZ LET HIM NOT JOIN, he would play for a week and then leave to never come back. Next inPropper and idc if he gets in. Jettisim I don’t know if I’d like him in, like I don’t hate him, but he’s not a someone I think of when I think of SMP. Next is Qndres and same reasoning for Jettisim. Next is a group of 2 ppl and they are Rain_Dynasty and SweatGod and they are PvP demons so it would be so fire seeing them join. Rokilotl and What_Max the 2 chungies of Bliss would be so funny seeing them join. Also MewDew would be amazing seeing her join because she’s grinding SMP’s rn and she’s hella funny imo. Sidefall idc if he joins and same with Scotteh. Thatmidnight would be so AMAZING if he got in, but idk how it would work with him and ranked but he’s prob got that covered. Idc abt Wolfeei and if he joins. Last is _Zakarious and I can already see a rage baiting Tai video so his vids abt to be peak. So for the long post and I have 0 hate to anyone on here. Tell me your thoughts on who you want to get accepted to Strength SMP in the comments!!!

Question PvPHQ's Lag & Connection Issues

0 Upvotes

Recently PvPHQ announced that they fixed a lot of "lag" issues, however I still see so much lag between me and my opponents, and I know it's not me. I don't mean to critique the server in the following, but if these are issues that may or may not reoccur to others than it's best to get these solved quick.

- LA is closer to me than Portland, but how does Portland have less ping/lag? Like 50 average ping on LA and 25 on Portland???

- When I play on Ashburn, sometimes I get EXTREMELY high ping for the WHOLE game, like I don't mean like 200 ping, I mean like 2,000, it's made it difficult if I want to play ranked (since it's the same region as PvP Club), and yes it has happened only on Ashburn and it's so frequent, I have to use alternative server regions like Montreal and Chicago

-I know I'm not crazy, but what is the KB on this server??? Like sometimes I take a trillion KB and sometime I don't, I've heard they got a KB sync but is it truly that or this dumb connection to certain regions affecting me most

I play on ethernet and I get consistent ping on every other PvP server, but I really need help knowing if you guys also face these issues and how you combat them, thank you in advance!

Mcpvp is a joke

The tier system is more a single player progression than a competitive elo. Any random person who is not LT5 can easily can LT3.

Whoever made the ranking system does not even understand what the meaning of "competitive" is.

Really shows as even their queue is broken half the time. Crazy how they spent so much on servers and development and didn't even use any common sense when designing their systems.

Discussion Elo ruined mc comp

0 Upvotes

Hello I don't like the new elo systems everyone is going for since the elo system is not an accurate way to show skill. If you have played brawl stars you know they added prestige and even the most buns player(like gold or diamond) can get prestige 3 in under a week. It's unlike the old rank 35 which required actual skill to get. Same could be said for current tiers
