Blocking is a feature that will be implemented in the Adventure Update. When one right-clicks while holding a sword, one will be able to block attacks, including arrows.

The character will move at a speed slower than sneaking speed while blocking. Additionally, sneaking while blocking will make the character move even slower.

When blocking, players will only receive half the damage of an attack.
