How to Remain Undefeated in PvP⁻¹ – Minecraft Anarchy PvP Meta Discussion

Hi this is another audio friendly video so if you’re on guard duty please keep your eyes on the security cameras and not this youtube all right let’s dive in hello again everyone back for a little bit of rambling uh i recently occurred to me that based on certain metrics of competition

It occurs to me that uh there’s varying degrees of defining what competition is particularly as it pertains to who is competing now for me uh when i used to play anarchy i had no problem uh doing player versus player stuff i would say i even enjoyed it um i probably

Wouldn’t say i enjoyed the pvp itself i more enjoyed just the trash talking that it allowed me to do once i had defeated my opponent but who knows maybe i enjoyed it too i it’s been so long i don’t remember but either way i did indeed participate in uh player versus player combat

And i’m not so sure um i technically was competing uh and i’ll i’ll explain that in a minute but for now i found myself interacting with certain people some either in a trash talking scenario uh in the context of player versus player um and some actually just actually you know fighting me uh

Again fighting is a bit of a strong word because i wasn’t really i wasn’t interested in fighting them i was just moving along doing my thing and that was pretty much it and and you know with my current client i have auto log turned off i have auto

Totem and all that kind of stuff so basically if if my totem pops and i auto log then i’m just gonna do something else for a while until they get bored and leave my logout spot alone because for me i i don’t have any interest in doing player versus player combat and

You know probably when i was younger back when i did do player versus player combat i wouldn’t back down from a fight uh and and a lot of times it’d be to me it would be kind of like cringe or whatever if if someone backed down up from a fight with me

Um but these days i just i have nothing to prove i’ve pvp before i won more than i lost and i’m content with that and these days i don’t the whole point of me playing is has nothing to do with pvp so when i’m in a more pvp oriented territory

Certainly people will try to engage but they’re not going to get anything that they want from me they’re going to try and get me to fight back but i don’t want to fight so i don’t fight back either auto log or i just carry on and go to where i was going um

And so in that sense uh am i competing in pvp when someone engages in pvp with me i i don’t know i don’t think so when you engage in pvp you kind of engage with a certain set of unspoken rules and certainly not everyone abides by

Them but uh the people that you enjoy pvp with the most uh do abide by them um back when i played dark age camelot there’s various unspoken rules you know like if there’s if you’re fighting someone you don’t uh you pull off if a third party adds on to it um

And all that kind of stuff although again like depending on who you were fighting you would know okay if if if i get added on this person’s not going to pull off so just persevere or uh if i get it on this person you know expect this person to pull off and we’ll

Both kill that third party and then we’ll carry on with our fight um but yeah so i i’ve seen kind of that happen in the pvp community on various anarchy servers they have their own spoken roles i don’t know what any of them are nor do i need to know

But ultimately the point is the only way that i pvp is you know if someone trash talks me in a pvp context i will try to talk them back sure i’ll engage i i do enjo enjoy a battle of wits but when when they say oh fight me i’ll own

You and it’s like yes i you know i know i will own them because i’m not actually gonna fight them i’m gonna say okay meet me at this location and we’ll fight and then i will never show up therefore i’ve wasted their time and i have won i’ve

Pulled them into going somewhere and wasting their time um you know you can call that cowardly uh certainly i would have uh back in the day but i just don’t care i don’t care enough to prove myself i don’t care enough to waste my time trying to prove myself um

And that’s that’s pretty much it um and and i’ve kind of come to this over time when i was i i’m in a discord with some friends and they there’s this particular one person who he started doing like this um this like tally of like of winning certain things um and it

He put me on this list although i never consented to competing i had no interest in competing uh when he started this list i was pretty much fully not playing video games at all and uh yeah and so and i didn’t even have a device that

Could play some of the games that they were doing their tallying stuff with so i was like what’s the point but it was it was kind of annoying to me because he put me on the list it’s like why would you why would you put me on the list if i’m not competing

Uh and then if you think about uh it’s like it’s just it’s it’s weird it’s weird and it’s false and it’s untrue because you know if you put i know it’s like if you put a uh sort of like a list of people competing in the nfl um

You know like i don’t know i don’t know what an example is but like uh you know you have the the buccaneers and the the patriots and uh the dolphins for example but if all of a sudden you put an uh like an nba team on there like the

The what is it the chicago bulls or something you know if the nfl started putting the chicago bulls on on their competition and saying oh look at this the chicago bulls suck they lost every game they haven’t even won a single game either it’s like wow

How can you say they’ve lost anything or won anything they’re not even in the league and so when i have pvp years um you know saying that uh that i’ve that i got owned by them if if i ran away or or if they killed me it’s like

And i’ve even heard this from trash talkers that in in kind of the opposite context it’s like you can’t compete with me i’m on a whole nother level here like i’m on a i’m playing a whole nother game and it’s like yeah that’s what i’m doing i’m

Playing a whole nother game these people can’t compete with me because i’m not i’m not playing the game they’re playing um and so when you put it in that context it’s like well actually anyone who’s uh getting killed or or running away or whatever for with people’s when they are

Not pvpers themselves they fully acknowledge themselves that they have no interest in pvping i mean if you think about it the pvpers are the ones wasting their time and in that sense like what what is winning and what is losing if you’re winning you’ve spent your time

And you got the outcome you desired um if you’re losing you spend your time you didn’t get the outcome you desired so if you’re just a pvper that’s looking to kill people um just for the fun of it and don’t care if they are competing or not

And if you’re a non-pvper and you get killed by a pvper well i guess in that sense maybe they’ve won in the sense of you are prey and they are predator and you are trying to get away and try not to waste your time uh but the the thing is uh if you

There’s kind of like a there’s kind of a default way for the prey to always win which is to have auto totem and autolog because even if they get like a really good crystal and and pop one or two of your totems you’re still gonna autolog before probably the second totem pops

Which means uh basically they’ve inconvenienced you a little bit but depending on how how long you uh well depending on how patient you are with uh just taking a break and not logging in for a while maybe you log into an all maybe you do your dishes whatever it is um

I guess it becomes more of a question of how long does that pvp are wait so if you uh if you if you log in soon enough that they can pop the rest of your totems and kill you well then i guess save one but if they sit around waiting

For god knows how long um you know i guess you’ve won in that sense i guess it’s kind of its own pvp meta predator pram predator versus prey meta instead of player versus play player meta so anyway i guess in that sense um i don’t think i’ve ever been defeated

In pvp once i guess there was in predator versus prey i don’t think i’ve ever lost i did have a kill aura axe versus axe fight with a guy named victison uh and he won uh but uh even then he he changed the meta in mid-fight by using a strength two potion

I didn’t have any of those and i didn’t care enough to try and pull one out of my e-chest or whatever um so i i guess maybe pvp depends on where you’re at whether it is are you playing player versus player or are you playing predator versus prey and i will say

I will never be predator at least for the first sea of the future i will always be praying in that sense i am undefeated in predator versus prey um so i guess was sort of a thought exploration in the whole pvp meta on anarchy servers and uh well it was a

Bit of a winding road um but i’m i’m glad you could join me for it uh i think actually this whole predator versus prey meta of pvp players player uh that just kind of came to me as i was recording i was mostly just making a video that tied

Into the clickbait i’ve had planned for it but i kind of had an interesting outcome so anyway that’s that’s that’s my theory paper minecraft about anarchy player versus player and uh coming along i think this video was probably enormously annoying to watch as i tried to like

Get rid of that weird dragon egg stack no offense to whoever put it there i just don’t feel like it’s particularly on brand with what this little village is doing oh by the way over here this is where i recorded the video where i got myself bed trapped

Uh so i’ll i’ll leave a link to that in the description it’s a really good video that a lot of people seem to like uh well okay i guess that’s it for me thanks for joining me again and i will see you for a couple more seconds in the little
