1.8 vs 1.16 Combat

1.8 pvp for kids with autoclicker and mouse for 9kkk$

1.8 combat feels much better and faster, clicking fast is what made it fun, having to wait for the slowdown makes the combat feel forced and silly.

1.8 combat system was better then 1.16 imho
so i play only on servers with 1.8 combat sys.

wowowo, 1.8 combat >> 1.16 combat!

1.16 is crap i love 1.8 pvp

old.the new one is too complicated to understand the gameplay

I played 1.7.10 modded aton so the 1.16 combat is better new to me

New one is better. I would say.

I believe there should be a toggle between them. They both have their perks

Well this is a tough one. There's multiple arguments for both - so much so that I can't really decide which one I enjoy more because I participate in both.

Bedrock combat is just... a mix of both of them, but Java has a very distinct line.

Here's how I would propose to give a purpose to both:

• 1.8 PVP - Competitive games, tournaments - Bedwars, Skywars, UHC, Factions, etc. 1.16 could technically work on the last two since they're far more traditional gamemodes, but 100% not on the first two. Major servers like Hypixel implement workarounds to make 1.16 combat as similar to 1.8 as possible already. These modes are simply too fast paced and way too many combat techniques are impossible in 1.16 combat (combos in the traditional sense, block hitting, w-tapping, etc.)
  
• 1.16 PVP - Survival. Literally just traditional Minecraft. No competitive play. Modernly the Minecraft combat meta has changed so much to be more survival oriented that it's impossible to adapt for competitive play. Even with workarounds making it like 1.8 PVP, it's just not a fun way to play, unless you're on a survival server with friends where you have the space to actually wait for the delay, or jump to crit, etc.
  

Well. That's my piece to this question.
