I would learn to speedbridge, it's very helpful, and maybe even godbridge. Also just generally improve on pvp skill, though that is something that happens over time. Hope this helped!
i do know how to ninja bridge, just that i have a low success rate :)hmm
1-Use resource pack Good
2-Try to be good fast bridge
3-Since you're using a version 1.9 Hit a blow, then wait two seconds, then hit
