PvP gamerules

Everyone knows the pvp community is split with 1.8 and 1.9, with the upcoming pvp update jeb is working on this will hopefully get less but I feel like a easier and better solution would be to add a gamerules for pvp.

/gamerule pvpVersion <version>
version could be set to 0, for 1.9, 1 for 1.8 and 2 for 1.7
This would use all old pvp related code so things like blocking, blockhitting, w-tapping and old knockback are back in the game. Perhaps instead of a gamerule you could also apply this to individual players.

I believe this would be a great way to get people to move to the new awesome updates instead of lingering on outdated versions. Server's like Hypixel could benefit greatly from this because they can finally use the new blocks and items to make their gamemodes even better.

I really hope you add this as a feature of upcoming combat update because there are bound to be people disliking it.
Good bye and good luck with 1.17 ;3

    Maybe have a half version, where 1.7 and 1.8 mechanics are involved in pvp, and 1.9 mechanics are involved in pve

    Minecraft is a game that allows people to play it how they want, especially the PVP community is far from the vanilla game. That would allow us to play how we want and how we prefer it while being at least somewhat supported by Mojang. No wonder we have been asking for this feature for 5 years now.

    Why not mixing the two like if you wait for cd your damage is higher with high knockback and you can attack multiple target. But if you spam it will give less damage and knocback also it will only attack single target. If you block with shield, it will knock the opponent and if you block with swords it wont knock the oppponent.
