Blocking is a feature implemented in the Adventure Update. When the player right-clicks while holding a sword, they are able to block attacks, including arrows. When blocking, players will only receive half damage from an attack. [citation needed]
The player will move at a speed slower than sneaking while blocking. Additionally, sneaking while blocking will make the player move even slower.
