Have a Mode Rotation System for SkyWars

Now that Hive is going to be adding a Classic Mode to SkyWars, I believe its time the game has rotating modes. Let’s be honest, SkyWars has too many modes for its own good already, and the division in players is not quite even between the modes. Some modes (Such as Kits) barely get any traction. So, I think what Hive should do to help games fill up faster is have some sort of weekly rotation for the modes, similar to the weekly items. I do believe that modes such as the Classic, Kits, Mega, and Royale should be the modes in rotation. Since some of the modes have Duos modes, I think they should be in groups.

  • Kits Solos/Kits Duos
  • Classic Solos/Classic Duos (Assuming that the Classic mode will come with both a Solos and Duos mode)
  • Mega/Royale

Of course, I think all modes should always be an option for custom servers. But, only modes in rotation should be available as public games.

They stated they won’t be adding/rotating Royale since it doesn’t get players, Game is likely gone for good.

However aside from that I agree they need to rotate games, Great suggestion :grinning:

awwww… I used to really like that game. Also I thought it could still be queued with /q sky-royale or something.

But yeah, rotating gamemodes could be nice, voted

alright SO heres a list of every sw mode we have, the italic ones being what we have rn

Solos
Duos

Trios
Squads
Mega
Royale
Kits
Kits-duos
Classic
Classic-squads

that makes 10 modes total.

what we would have if we expanded as much as possible (italics being ones we dont have but totally could)

Solos
Duos
Trios
Squads
Mega
Royale
Kits
Kits-duos
Kits-trios
Kits-squads
Kits-mega
Kits-royale

Classic
Classic-duos
Classic-trios

Classic-squads
Classic-mega
Classic-royale

thats 18 possible modes we could cycle, and 3 at a time means 816 possible groups

I honestly think this would be great to have in any form, as everyone could have the mode they want. at any given time we could have a lucky ores, a kits, and a classic mode, maybe all different teams as well… or we could just get lucky ore solos duos and megas. its like an infinite-sided die iykyk

I do agree that not everything needs to be cycled, but I like the idea of having no clue what you may be playing today

lmk if I missed smth or got smth wrong
