OH, my mistake I see. Iā€™d recommend programming the sword to detect if a player is blocking via bool values parented by the sword, from there do less damage to the player.

You would also have to keep the de-bounce on until the player releases the block key.

-Assuming that the attacker also has a sword.

i get the bool values id have to make the problem im having is scripting the block script its self i dont under stand how to make it

You can reference the way this script I made works:

local human = script.Parent.Humanoid
local isblocking = true
local lastv = human.MaxHealth

human.Changed:Connect(function(property)
	
	if isblocking == true then
	if property == "Health" then
		if human.Health < lastv then
			local dif = (lastv - human.Health) /2
			human.Health += dif
			
			lastv = human.Health
		end
	end
	end
	lastv = human.Health
end)

what it does is detects when the humanoid takes damage and adds back half of what was taken.

-Change the human value to whatever the variable is for the humanoid.
-And make sure the isblocking value gets changed to true and false to enable it.
