BlockThatSwordBro, Vanilla Sword Blocking Datapack

BlockThatSwordBro is a Minecraft datapack that brings sword blocking to vanilla gameplay without requiring mods. It lets players defend themselves with a sword, adding a familiar combat option for survival, adventure, and PvP on a Minecraft server. The pack is designed for automatic operation and avoids memory overload, keeping its logic lightweight during play.

Its system relies on vanilla commands and sounds, with a single function that runs only when its specific conditions are met. It supports standard swords and can be adapted for modded weapons, making it useful for custom combat setups. At BoxToPlay, we present it as a practical way to refresh server combat while preserving the vanilla feel.
