Spleef

Spleef(top)

Spleef is drawn from the traditional Minecraft game-mode. Break the wool blocks under your opponents to make them fall, at which point you will be declared the winner and teleported back to the entrance.

Spleef was originally released in August 2017 when the Games Server was launched. It was rereleased after being converted from command blocks to code in July, 2022 as part of the Games Server Update.

Arrow Spleef(top)

In this mode, instead of punching the blocks under your opponents, you use a bow and fire arrows (of which there are two stacks) at the blocks at their feet to make them fall. You win the match when you're the last one on the platform.

Nether Spleef(top)

Netherspleef are traditional games of spleef with a Nether theme. It is only hosted by staff.

Origin and history(top)

Netherspleef was first built by Dark_Liz on SMP1 in EMC's early days. It was lost to an early reset, but was rebuilt and relaunched on May 28th, 2013 and used at various points by various hosts until 2017 (/v netherspleef). As of 2017, Netherspleef can be found on the Games Server, in its third design variant. It was converted from command blocks to code in July, 2022 as part of the Games Server Update.

Gameplay(top)

The arena will open when a round is ready to start; make sure to listen to staff Instructions so you know when this is. When it starts, players will be able to destroy the floor using shears, which is made of wool blocks so that it can be broken easily. The objective of the game is to be the last player standing in the arena, meaning that it is advantageous to attempt to make other players fall into the lava below by breaking the wool beneath them.

When you fall, you will teleport back to the entrance of the platform.

Once there is a winner, they can claim their prizes in the donation room, where other players can put donations in chests.

Other information about the SMP1 arena(top)

Note that upon falling into the lava in the SMP1 arena, you will die and lose any items located in your inventory. Therefore, it is a good idea to put any items that you do not wish to lose in the Ender chests located by the entrance of the arena.

To leave the Netherspleef area, you must return to the Town using one of the teleports located near the entrance of the arena, or die in the lava below the arena, which will cause you to go to the Frontier's Nether spawn.
