Yo so im going to pretty much steal this threat from evermore who made this on mcsg over a year ago but make it on bl for the new players since most players already know a majority of this stuff but for the newer players i hope this can help.First off all pretty much the core of 8 blocking is sprint reset. More commonly known as w tapping, shifting, block hitting all fall into the category as "sprint reseting" Every time you either tap w, shift, or block your sword your oppenent will take double the knockback from 1 to 2 blocks ( them not moving)
It allows you to keep them in the combo zone for a longer amount of time from knocking them back even though sometimes you can knock them to far away if you dont time it correctly. From my past experiences of w tapping there are about 4 main techniques for executing it while shifting is the same pattern and block hitting is different but im not going to make a thread on how to block hit LOL. Ok so pretty much there is 1. Tapping w before the hit, this will almost always work and its hard to not give your oppenent the extra knockback since you have the extra time to react opposed to other methods. I don't do this method since i dont think the misplacement is very affective on it since its a bit of a delay before the original hit/knockback they recieve and i will state all of that later in the thread. Next is the original method i learned and works well for starters. Tapping w right after the hit, it works pretty well and is simple to do it will always reset the sprint for the following hit. Next is tapping w as you get the hit imo this is the most effective but also the most complicated since you have to make sure you get the kb increasement at a short notice but it makes you seem to get farther hits since you tap it during the process of the hit. Next is by far the easiest which goes by another name as "wobble sprinting" this is where you spam your w key as fast as you can it works but you cant strafe with it giving it downsides.
S tapping : every time you get a hit you tap s. ONLY WOULD RECCOMEND IN SPEED PVP NOT AFFECTIVE IN NON SPEED. reasoning behind that is by the time you back up from tapping s they are already out of your reach to make it effective in comboing most you can do in non speed with it is a possible double hit and it sucks if they are rod spamming it works well in pot if used at the right moment!
Dubstep comboing : This is an oldie and pretty complicated one to do with all the rod shit now so all just link the video you can watch it if you want.
works well if your oppenent doesnt spam there rod or in a kit such as diamond or a kit without secondaries used correctly it can always be useful.
Wall hitting : It means the title pretty much its only good if your oppenent is cornered on a wall you hit then back up hit then back up. It rarely comes in handy just thought i would say it as it can sometimes let you outreach your oppenent if done correctly.
A-D tapping : almost everyone knows about this. If you have watched bluedeww you know what it is or stonesworders made a tutorial on this which has insane view amounts which ill link after this. Pretty much you let go of w and press a and d when you are knocking them back making combos easier im kinda bad at explaining this one so go watch bluedeww or this tutorial
Some other random misplacement that works if done right, doesnt really have a name an old mcsg friend showed me this over a year ago. Its pretty much dependent on ping delay as a descent part of misplacement is a part of lag/delay. You pretty much just exchange hits and hold s. You will pretty much have to test it out as i dont really have a good way of explaining it without like demonstrating it and im to lazy to record me doing it. The logic behind this is when you back up on your oppenents screen your hitbox is still there but on your screen you already got the hit at normal distance on their screen but in reality you are already backed up out of there hit range. * dont use this in speed pvp*
This is just a little rant i have thought about since no one has really came up with a descent explanation of how 8 blocking actually works ** THIS IS JUST A THEORY NO FACTS WHATSOEVER** well this is just my opinion on it as you read above every singe strategy involved creating a distance between your oppenent and your self. W tap you release you w to distance your self giving you far hits same exact thing with shifting. S tap, once again your backing up which is creating another distance and seperating you from your oppenent. dubstep combo, you press s as you land from a jump creating another distance between your oppenent and your self. A-D tapping lets go of w to seperate once again. Pretty much everyone of these tactics are misplacements cause it is interfering with the distances of your hitbox between your oppenents screen. Next up is MS pretty much if you have ever played on like an au proxy and fought na players it seems there reach gained to blocks of hits pretty much cause they get a hit and it takes lots of time to come to you and your already being knockbacked and the misplacement between you and your oppenent is greater than being under 50 ms.
Just wanted to help out some new players thanks for reading !! hope it helped ;3
