for those of u that dont know, lunar 1.8 has been exposed for removing a vanilla hit delay feature (proof below)
vanilla delay when u miss for 0.5s before u can swing again

this is code from vanilla 1.8, "leftClickCounter" is a 10 tick countdown from when u miss your opponents hitbox (50ms per tick, 500ms or 0.5s total) in which your swing packets wouldnt be sent to the server. (so you may be swinging but your player wouldnt and the hits wouldnt count)
Now this is what lunars client code looks like

So basically lunar removed the "delay" from their client giving players the ability to send more leftclick packets to the server than a vanilla player would be able to.
Note: a cps clientside mod wouldnt register packets sent to the server, only how many times u left click so it will be inaccurate.
(so any 1.8 non lunar user may have cps mods that show 15-20cps but in reality only send half as many packets and thus only be getting 5-10cps serverside)

Lunar devs claim this was a bug and that it has been "fixed" but you can try testing it our yourself on a private server with a cps counter (NOT CLIENTSIDE MOD) and go into vanilla 1.8.9 vs lunar 1.8.9 and youll notice your serverside cps is much higher with lunar.
gg to anyone that uses lunar, when this gets fixed your cps is about to drop 20-50% and max out at around 10-12, till then ima start using lunar
BTW 1.7 isnt affected, it has always had extra reach and no cps cap which is why you should always ask what version someone is on before 1v1ing them.
