Any tips on how to get better at PvP in Minecraft? I'm still really bad even though I'm a veteran and have been playing for over 2 years now. Any tips are much appreciated. No insults please. :)

The same way to get to Carnegie Hall: Practice.
Don't confuse longevity with skill: Just because you've been doing something a long time, doesn't mean you're good. I played Quake 3 multiplayer when it came out (yes, I'm old) and it was the best way to improve my game. Play against people better than you.
One way to gain an advantage if you don't know this already is to strafe. While someone's coming at you with there sword you try to get behind them using the A and D key and slice open their back.
