The Mace Ruined PvP

Minecraft 1.21 brought several new features, including the Mace: a powerful and formidable weapon. In this video, I explain why the Mace is overpowered and how it will ruin pvp.

Yall really forgetting how end crystals basically already did this.

Minecraft isnt a pvp game, its a sandbox. Just ban it on your server if you hate it so bad lol

Another counter for the mace is slow falling arrows 👍

Bro this is alot better then 2 players just hitting each other for 20 minutes until their armor breaks

People:Mojang should add something new.

1:10 no the hell not can you put sharpness on your mace tf are you lying for? Stop dishing out lies öil bro

[avaasusual]

I think i'm okay with there being something overpowered like this, i'm so sick of pvp just being two people with swords hitting each other for 20 minutes until someones armor breaks

Mace is polarizing. You either get a lot of value with it or get countered or miss and get none. Calling it overpowered would imply to me there aren’t multiple counters to it though. There’s more counters to the mace than I can think of off the top of my head.
But just one example, when people were in water they could’ve spam down to avoid you. Your hitbox becomes a lot shorter while swimming. Cant crit while you’re in the water yourself either so the mace wouldn’t be any use

[Rubberduckboy]

Sharpness can’t be applied to the mace only smite, bane of arthropods, fire aspect, unbreaking, mending, density, breach and wind burst can.

You forgot to mention the elytra, it's basically more powerful than tridents 💀

[ThunderxBoy]

In order for the mace to be effective you must hit the enemy from a certain height, so by the time you are in the air your opponent can dodge you and escape the hit, while you will get the fall damage

Mace players having fun until someone shoots them with slowfalling arrows

[uwufetch]

no one actually uses the mace on comp pvp servers so it doesn't even matter

[Speedradam]

OK but with wind burst, it is ridiculously difficult and time confusing to get max level, and even then you take serious amounts of fall damage

[vvaidmc]

counters:
shield (but you have to be aware which direction)
slow falling
elytra (if you fly into the air they cant attack you midair)
end crystals (if you place two end crystals and stand in between they will only be able to hit the crystals and not you (and probably will pop themselves)

[W.bonnie]

better than those who still play 1.8 pvp, and they even say its skill. *skull emoji*

[whateverIwasthinkingatthetime]

Fall damage nullification and the lack of a damage cap are specifically 2 of the founding design principles Mojang put in place to make the mace unique as no other weapon functions that way.
Why would one continue to use it if they die by using it through its intened purpose? Not to mention th fact that you never once mentioned how rare it is to obtain in survival, especially Windburst which in my and the opinion of many, justifies how overpowered it is.

[Keegan-lh]

Literally use Crystal PvP. Then when try to get height with a wind charge you can Crystal them into oblivion. Or use slowfalling arrows/splash potions to make it so they can’t fall and do damage.

1:22 how does sharpness make sense with a mace?
4:09 it seems possible to counter. You just need a shield or some blocks. Once people know how to dodge and the mace becomes dangerous in high falls, it will calm a little. Wind charges are still powerful tho.

[FerdinandRubi-bjdm]

the mace is way stronger then any other weapons but the time it needs to get it with the enchantments and other items gives the enemy enough time to use counter like slow falling webs shield or just waking out of range and let the attacker get the fall damage
