Hello.
So some of you might know me as the most annoying player to fight.

Or just as Krekkers.

But today.
I'm spilling my secret methods to play decent skill.
And still win.

I'm talking about all the most played modes.
So currently that is 2 modes.


Overall Tips.

Tip 1.
Play ranked matches.
Even I know there are cheaters in there.
But fight against people who are good.
Using your elo you can indicate your skill range.
Using that you can choose fights.
I honestly choose fights I can win.

Tip 2.
You got different modes.
Which all have different movement.
So learn which movement works best for which.
For speed pots Going forward only might become a disadvantage.
Moving to side to side with speed is a great way to reduce speed and kb.
And without speed moving from side to side might be way more important.
Just to avoid projectiles or to make your opponent change his aim a lot.
Tip 3.
Why jump when eating?
Well because if your opponent hits you there is a chance you take more kb.
Reason being that taking less kb is not that great.
You take more damage when wanting to be close to your opponent.
----------------------------------------------------------
A counter for this is jump critting without sprinting.
Because sprinting adds the kb to your opponent.
You should try to hit him without press w.
But you should be jumping for extra damage at that point.
He wont attack back.

Tip 4.
So in nodebuff we all use speed 2 pots.
So why not put this in nodebuff tips?
Because its on multiple modes.
I hope you know a basic way of playing with speed 2.
But here are some things you might want to know.

1- Sprint jumping is not good.
You wont get faster.
In air your movement is separate then on the ground.

2- When a sweat fight.
You dont want to let your opponent time rest.
Pot as soon as they do.

3- Keep track of speed timer.

NoDebuff.

Tip 1.

So in NoDebuff we got some Speed potions and one Fire resistance potion.
I see some people just not drinking it.
Wich when firetick happens it gives you no kb.
But its stupid.

Tip 2.
So I know this sounds tryhardy.
But I got a reason behind my insanity.
When counting your pots.
You need to count theirs.
So when you pot once you see if they pot.
Do they pot twice and you once?
You count that as 1.
You pot twice and they once.
You count that as -1.
I found out that this strategy works best when pot conserving.

Tip 3.
Some people might know this.
But people think taking less kb is a good thing.
ITS NOT.
Do you want to take more damage?
No.
So for example.
When eating you move slow.
No way of running away.
So when in range of the other player.
Jump when eating.
So when you get hit.
You take more knockback.
In return they cant damage you as much.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Build UHC.

Tip 1.
Having a mod which displays your arrow amount really helps with this one.
Look people scold me for bow spamming.
But when in a situation when you are low.
And you don't know the other person his hp.
It really helps you deciding your next move.

Tip 2.
So using lava isn't my strong part.
But I know when to use it.
You want to use it when close to a wall.
Or near a place where you are in a position of getting someone stuck.
Don't use it on places where someone can get out of it easily.

Tip 3.
When your in a situation like.
Someone is bowspamming you.
You need to know what to do.
I see some people place 5 blocks and hide behind the place where I can still shoot them.
So you want to build 3 high 2 wide.

Tip 4.
Pre gapping.
I personally pregap all the time.
I use it to have 4/20 more hp points.
Because some people like to bowspam in the beginning,
you want to have some form of advantage.
And if you know how many gaps you can conserve if your opponent doesn't eat one.

When to gap and how
So you want to jump when eating a gapple.
You want to gap when your hp is around 6/20 if you think you got time.
If you shoot your opponent with a bow you know his hp.
Feeling confident trading hits?
Feeling good about taking that risk?
If you're in range and hes below 3/20.
You can kill him/her.

Tip 5.

So when doing this you want to use it like a snowball with less range.
Sounds easy right?
Nah it aint.
You also got to dodge the other person his rod.
Small movements are key.
You have to predict in your head when your opponent will rod.
Usually its around the all the time.
So you want to influence them by not rodding in the beginning unless your scared of losing the combo.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sumo.

Tip 1.

Higher cps gives less kb.
We all know it.
But with sumo its not all.
I once learned from a wise player.
That you need to keep your crossair on the opponent.
I found out it decreases kb.
Try to aim at their heads if you get first hit aim for the body so you keep your cross-air on them.





More To Be added in the future...
I just feel like these two modes are the most played.
If I see more people playing other modes.
I will add them to the list.
Hope this gets people to improve.
Over time I will add tips.
