Make shields block 100% melee damage (LIKE THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO)

I spent 6 hours on this suggestion
Easy way to fix that:
UPDATE TO 1.12 FULLY AND JUST FULLY UPDATE! It is not that hard, they are all minecraft versions. And also, keep 1.8.

In what game?

Because Duels that would backfire completely, they are timed and someone could just block the whole game to be virtually unkillable in many

For SG yeah I guess maybe

Skywars sure since you can still take knockback while blocking

Eggwars I guess? I never use shields in it other than to deal with someone camping

UHC: oh I'm just kidding

FFA it really wouldn't matter as let's be honest here
Almost nobody buys shields in FFA

This is one of the changes that I'm not too enthusiastic about. But they have to update eventually and they will have to find a way to make 1.11 shields work.
Than have fun never being able to finish a duel
How many duel kits would that affect? The Brute has an axe to disable the shield. In my opinion the Brute only works with 1.11 shields, currently the shield might as well not be in the kit at all. In the Skywars kits you have lava. If you just stand there blocking you'll get burned. The 1.9 Warrior might have to be changed.

In duels, you can easily balance shields by giving them low durability. If you use the shield to block melee hits, it will break leaving you vulnerable to arrows. I only see an issue in games with unlimites arrows, Skywars and Eggwars. In order to prevent bowspamming, I want to be able to block all the arrows, but I don't want full durability shields in melee combat.

brute I was ignoring and the skywars kits also have water meaning it can easily be put out

while yes low durability kits shields are a possible counter to this but I still think it is much less necessary than just not adding this to duels

Why isnt this necessary? This is a vanilla mechanic. Its how its supposed to be

This will get really annoying while playing Duels. As it is a vanilla mechanic, there can be no harm in changing it as long as they decrease the durability of the shield.
