SkyWars

SkyWars is a mini-game added to HiveMC in 2015. It involves either one or a team of two people on an island with chests on it. You use the chests for items and to kill other players on other islands. You can travel to other islands and kill the players there via ender pearl or blocks.

What is SkyWars: Luck of the Draw ?
12 players each spawn on their own island with just a basic kit: a wooden sword, and enchanted stone tools. Every island has a few chests randomly filled with a mix of items.

The core to our version of SkyWars are the random ores which spawn within your island. Every ore is different and gives you AWESOME stuff, like items, potion effects, and even extra hearts!

How to Play
When the timer reaches zero, the map with the highest votes will win, and you will be sent there. When you spawn on your island, you'll have basic tools. Wooden stuff. You may notice there are barriers. Don't go past those, as they will kill you. Another timer will go down, and when it reaches 0, the barriers will go down, making players able to go past them. You can either survive on your island, or be adventurous and build to other islands and try to kill other players there. Be warned -- they might have better gear than you. There is also a giant island in the middle of all normal islands where TONS of chests are located. Even a giant ender chest called 'The Mystery Chest' is there and contains really good stuff - it's only open for 30 seconds though. If a player kills you, you are eliminated! But, if you kill all players or if all players die, YOU WIN!
