New weekly item ideas:
AFK doll can be placed on the ground, and it looks like the player who placed it. Hitting it will alert the player who placed it, and they can go to the doll and attack the person attacking the doll.
Sword of Stingers is an iron sword that inflicts poison and wither effects for 5 seconds but breaks within 1 minute of using it.
The heat seeker is a boom box slingshot that you can use by putting the boombox in your off hand. When you launch the boombox, it targets the nearest player and explodes on contact.
The Friendolotl is a placeable item (can be broken, but takes very long, like obsidian), that will teleport the player who placed it back to it if they fall into the void.
The spell of confusion is a spellbook with a twist: to use it, you must hit another player with it. The way it works is that it reverses the player’s controls (backwards for forwards, left for right, etc.) and gives them nausea. This lasts for 10 seconds.
The spell of slowening is a spellbook that gives all players within 15 blocks slowness IV, including the player who activated it, and it lasts for 15 seconds. Anyone who enters the zone that has slowness will also be slow.
Umbrella hat gives slow falling when you jump from a high place. It breaks after going down 30 blocks.
The bouncer is a placeable item that bounces players into the air, kind of like the bouncy things in survival games. This would be very helpful for traps.
The treasure is a tribute to treasure wars. When it is placed, it acts as a respawn point. If the player dies and respawns, all items are put in a death chest and they have to start over.
The cactus shirt is an iron chestplate with thorns III.
The ultra poison boombox is a poison boombox that gives everyone on the map poison.
The rod is a fishing rod that pulls players towards you. It also works on boomboxes and deathchests.
Knockback dory is an item from bed wars, it could be more common because it’s a one-use item.
Fireballs are the items from bed wars, and I think they would be fun to use in skywars.
The remote control is an item that gives you control of someone’s body and them control of yours. Maybe this could be shootable or throwable.
Player teleporter will teleport a random player to you.
