Dual Wielded Weapons - What would it do to the play style of MCSG?

[Tuct | Palkian]

For the past few days, ive been thinking about some things that could affect MCSG/PvP in general in Minecraft... and I came up with this and thought I would share this with such a large community of PvP'ers. How do you think it it would affect the play style, what are some tactics you could use?

What I was thinking...
1. Dual wielding sword and fishing rod.
2. Dual wielding 2 swords? (takes half the damage of a regular sword and puts it toward one of the dual wielded weapons)

If you're dual wielding two swords, it doesn't make any sense to lower the damage of each individual sword...

Dual wielding sounds like something too silly to input for any serious gamemode anyway, and that's even talking about Minecraft in general.

Well, actually maybe there would be some type of challenge you would have to face to grant your powers to dual wield?

If you could dual wield anything for pvp that would be extremely op. Having a sword and fishing rod out at the same time.... Don't even get me started with this

It would be complicated to use, but if used right it would make it sooooo powerful.

I think a good idea would be to seriously lower the hunger of anybody using dual wield weapons, like, the amount of hunger you lose regularly would go by twice as fast when using two weapons, and even more when fighting with them.

It sounds like a cool idea, but just imagine somebody running up to you smacking two swords all over the place. Sounds kind of funny to me.

A player slowly advances towards you, slowly spinning two axes lightly on the end of his fingers, a confident smile fixed on his face.

I think I'd poop myself.

What if you were spinning two swords? what then?

Reminds me of this:

Reminds me of this:

He was actually sick that day, and just wanted to get it over with. He pulled it off so well and unexpectedly, though, that the producers kept it.

I don't think so....

 

[Darby100]

I don't think so....

You don't think what it would bring to the play style of MCSG?
