### \ud83d\ude80 Why choose this plugin?<\/p>\n
Most death-effect plugins are bloated or dangerous. This one is built for performance:
\n* **\ud83d\udca8 Zero-Config (Plug-and-Play):** No `config.yml` to mess up. It works perfectly the moment you hit “Start.”
\n* **\ud83d\udee1\ufe0f 100% Non-Destructive:** Uses localized visual strikes. No fire spread, no block damage, and zero harm to surrounding entities or items.
\n* **\ud83e\uddf5 Ultra-Lightweight:** Written with optimization in mind to ensure zero impact on your server’s TPS, even in chaotic PvP.
\n*
