SkyWars SHOVEL Change

Idea:

In SkyWars, the SHOVEL is an item used for trapping. However, when you get it on a map composed like 99% out of stone, (eg. Armada, Amsterdam, Calor) it’s basically useless. So my suggestion is to make it so that SHOVELS cannot appear on maps made of entirely non-shovelable blocks.

More information:
I would suggest removing the SHOVELS from the following maps:

IN SOLOS: Europa, Ivory, Ivory: Spring Edition, Pillars, and Volcano.

IN DUOS: Atomic, Capacity, Calor, Boulevard, Frio (Winterfest), Galactic, Elf Town (Winterfest), and Spooktopia (Halloween).

IN SQUADS:

Bazaar, Armada, Sunset City, Snowfall City (Winterfest), and Flourish.

IN MEGA:

Obelisk, Gardens, Rocky Heights, Sky Kingdom, and Sky Kingdom (Spring Version).

This would be simple and much appreciated for anyone mining emerald ores! Please leave a vote at the top!

Just curious as to why this is needed? Do you like only get SHOVELs or what… because I literally like never get them ever. :sob:

But anyways, this sounds nerdy, but tactically speaking those maps would become better as the chances for better swords and nemos would increase, leading to a richer game. Knowing you, I don’t think you like nemos since you don’t like dories either (either you or NotYoshi I think you but I forgot XD) so this change could make you dislike Skywars 1% more!!! Therefore it’s bad. :rage_1_:

I don’t only get shovels, but a lot of the times I get them in a useless scenario.

Are you proposing a starting shovel, or suggesting that the gold shovel from emeralds shouldn’t be possible to obtain on said maps? I’m assuming you meant the shovel from the emeralds.

If you are talking about the golden shovel, I completely agree. I voted.

I’m referring to the SHOVEL not being available from mining emeralds on those maps, because that would be useless.

I like Nemos. They don’t do much KB and are fairly rare so I think they make the game more interesting. Dory’s are too OP and easily farmable.

The tactical value of this would increase… if you aren’t a trapper. If you’re a trapper these maps are already bad and all this does is make mining emerald ores make more sense. After all, why should a useless item be obtainable?

(Yeah IMO maces would be fine too)
Anyway this Idea is ok but TBH it makes SW more lucky, and it’s in the name…

Wdym ‘it makes sw more lucky’ it just makes sense for the SHOVEL to only be available when its actually useful also what’s in the name?

I mean hive calls their skywars: Skywars- Lucky ores

True, but with SHOVEL it’s SkyWars: 99% Useful Ores.

It is literally useless. If it was only sometimes useful like a fire charge or a slowness boom box I wouldn’t be mad at it like this. I’m annoyed because on nearly all the above listed maps there is no dirt and it would be almost impossible to trap with the SHOVEL, which is its purpose. It’s not useful at all, literally pointless.

I guess, I never even see the shovel TBH

It’s a golden shovel used for trapping by breaking blocks like sand and dirt. It’s full name is this:
S H O V E L
(sorry for late reply didn’t see this until now)

Yeah I know, TBH it should be made a iron shovel

How is this post not getting more votes? This is an excellent idea. It’s so true how useless the shovel is on maps with no or few shovel mineable blocks.

I know right :sob: just us two have voted for it so far.

Could be because only 4 people have spoke here, and only 2 really want this :skull:

I would assume a lot more people would vote because it just makes so much sense. It’s a shame that only @AJtheOtter and I think so.
