Still playing 1.8?

1.8 is the best in terms of PvP. I don't know why some people say 1.8 PvP is bad or requires no skill... it doesn't. The newer updates of Minecraft from 1.13 and above just seem to have too much new stuff to learn and get accustomed to. I'd rather play the older versions of Minecraft where the game was much simpler and didn't require much thinking (i.e it was routine).
