Release 1.9 came out on February 29th, 2016. This update completely revamped the combat system. The most notable things from this update are shields, attack cooldowns and the difference in weapon damage (e.g, Axes).
Despite it being a decent update, it had killed the game for nearly 4 years, and had sparked a lot of debate in the community about whether it was better or worse than the previous combat system.
Although the debate has died down a lot with less people bringing it up for little to no reason, whenever it's brought up, many people make the argument that 1.9 Combat takes no skill, while 1.8 Combat takes no skill, despite both versions having completely different combat.
No resolution to these arguments are really made as both parties decide not to think about the information the person they're arguing with says, or the flaws they point out about their preferred combat version. It is one of, if not the most controversial update in Minecraft history, besides the Beta 1.8 update, which was disliked due to the game having a main objective rather than being an endless survival game.

Get the Minecraft 2 mug.What "Minecraft: Bedrock Edition" used to be called for mobile devices. The PE stands for Pocket Edition, which honestly sounds like a much more applicable name than Bedrock. Thus, I will keep referring it to Pocket Edition.
Back then, Pocket Edition was basically a Lite version of Minecraft meant for on-the-go experiences. It was more for killing time (e.g. waiting for bus) than for actually getting invested in the game. Today however, the transition from PE to Bedrock Edition has basically turned the mobile game into full-fledged Minecraft (with some limitations of course).

Get the minecraft hardcore mug.A crappy out-of-touch with reality logic from the famous 2009 game, Minecraft. It includes breaking crops when jumping on them, gold tools being the most useless tools in the game, and a portable hell from a very old version of the game which was removed, achieving godspeed with riding a CANOE (it is called a boat in-game) on ice! Not an iceboat, a canoe. Stopping the player from being poisonous, nauseous and all that good/bad stuff that is included in the game just by drinking milk. Plus, it is straight from the cow. Not pasteurized. And also you can get a music disc by making a creeper (an exploding mob in the game) get killed by a skeleton! (Self-explanatory skeleton with a bow) And much more stupid things.
Hey dude, what is the crappiest video game logic you know?
It's the Minecraft logic. There are so many out-of-touch things.
