Been vocally advocating against the minecraft shoes since they were added, anything that reliably is selling for 50k in the community you can bet is not because of its balanced nature and fair counterplay. I would go as far as to say they could lose the blunt resist entirely and still be fine, but I think the knockdown should stay the same. They filled a very necessary niche and made it not always a great idea to knockdown in every situation its available for you. What if they have elytra and will get up an execute you?

Too many builds are based around the knockdown and kite strategy, or just using knockdown to eat momentum. Without some looking into knockdowns themselve I would rather this evil stay.

They aren't selling for 50k because of the blunt resistance. While that is a factor, they're selling as high as they do because they counter all forms of knockdown in the game, aside from snake shot/pulling shot from Archer and the knockdown seed (There's probably another method, but I can't remember it). The blunt resistance can be toned down to UL%, but the knockdown effect should be changed to UL% of a chance to activate so there's a risk/reward involved or should be changed entirely. Also, that niche has been filled by Kip Up and Roc's Rise for some time now since they cure the momentum penality.

I'm still advocating for airborne immunity suggested by Spoops to replace it but I'm also open to other ideas that anyone else could suggest.
