Back in 2020 IYN on Hypixel was this:
Two players wait for 16 iron dropping their gold to the other 2.
One goes left with 64 wool and the other goes right.
The 2 left in the gen build an endstone/glass butterfly defense.
This involves waiting for 36 iron. One gets the endstone for 24 and one glass for 12. The other gets 3 glass for 36.
The reason for this is you need 4 lots of glass to be full.
At this point each has enough gold for tnt and catches up to the bridgers on both sides and drops the tnt.
What I have seen people do here on Pika is somewhat different.
The first difference is an endstone/wood defense instead of endstone/glass.
The second is baffling to me.
One player stands _outside_ of the generator while the others throw resources in other for him to build the defense.
Having one player sranding outside the generator means your team only gets 3 sets of iron/gold instead of 4 sets, effectively reducing the team's total iron/gold by a quarter.
Can you explain the logic behind one person standing outside the generator and getting no resources for themselves?
If you want one person to have all resources why don't you have 3 stand on one side of the generator and throw the iron/gold to the 4th guy on the other side?
I also don't see bridges going both ways much and I don't see first rush tnt much either.
Is it 4 players the same direction with tools and blocking in?
A lot of the time I see no actual rush strategy other than "Leeeroy Jeeenkins"!
Can you explain the details of what Pika uses for IYN because people get annoyed when I do it the OG way.
