Why no? the mod has to update sometime(I believe I remember reading that Mevans said probably when the mod api comes out). And there's going to be loads of features that will need updating, and hopefully shields will actually work...

And as for the combat system, 1.9 has a far superior combat system to the LOTR mod's one. Your not as vulnerable becuase you can actually do knockback still, even if it does only a little damage, while in the mod you have to wait for your timer to go down to swing again. Also there's the sword swipe attack. I'd say the only advantages that the LOTR mod's combat has over 1.9 is that weapons have different reaches, and bows have different drawback speeds.
