So apparently many good pvpers are saying that hitting people on the legs will make your hits register faster .

Also somehow I found an old rly popular video that says the same thing.

Is it true or not?

I think it's safe to say that that's false.

I always did it so it must be correct.
Swinging at their head definitely minimises hit registration, so i always aimed at the chest/legs.

The hitbox doesn't extend all the way up the head or hitboxes are smaller on the head, so that's how low grounding works.

Low ground will allow you to hit better. If you aim low and you get hit and go up, you can still hit them because your aiming at them low

Nope there's another part of the hitbox but it extends your reach not give you better hit detection.
