tl;dr EggWars + The Walls + GrianMC’s disasters + some own stuff
I really liked @Fesa's & @Mirriya’s suggestion, so I went ahead and made a fully working, playable version to re-suggest it with some improvements. Why? Because I have fun making this kind of stuff.
Also, don't take numbers too seriously. I haven't spent too much time balancing stuff.
I spent a lot of free time making this. If you are going to vote no, please, leave a comment stating why.
Similar to minigames like MoneyWalls, the map is divided in four equal parts (4 teams of 10, alternatively 4 teams of 5). Unlike in MW, the separator isn't a solid wall, instead it's a Minecraft world border, local to each team, meaning you can see what other teams are doing. There's a "No Mans Land" of separation between borders. You have 10 minutes to craft gear, place defenses and make the strategy. After those 10 minutes, the fog gets removed, and PVP starts. Similar to EggWars, the goal is to destroy the enemy generator (wool) to prevent them from respawning, and the kill them all.
Every kingdom has a castle with the team's core inside. Maps should be like a vanilla Minecraft world, as players need to craft everything (opposed to MoneyWalls), with a mine (so all four kingdoms have the same crafting materials).
Almost copy paste from @Fesa 's thread:
That's pretty cool, but what makes its unique? There are a some features we added that makes it 300% [citation needed]. cooler:
We (I) believe the game is pretty different from what's currently available on CubeCraft. It combines some of the most liked stuff of current games (eg EggWars-like death mechanics, pre-planning phase like BlockWars) with diffrent features found on other servers (no void, The Walls-like crafting) with some never-seen features (like the building thing, or the walls being WorldBorders.
Edit: all blocks are breakable, unlike BlockWars

That's pretty cool, but what makes its unique? There are a some features we added that makes it 300% [citation needed]. cooler:
- Mining is boring. After breaking an ore, a mob will spawn. There are two ore groups:
- Iron, Emerald, Redstone -> Spawn a Zombie
- Diamond, Lapis -> 80% probability of spawning a Villager Zombie, 20% probability of spawning a Wither Skeleton
- This makes it harder to get diamond gear or get a lot of enchantments
-
- Building aka the blaze rod. Place barricades/walls for a sum of money. Currently, I have 3 barricades (though I'd like to add some sort of TNT cannons or different structures):
- "Small" - $500
4x8 Iron bars Wall
- "Medium" - $1500
4x4 Obsidian Wall
- Advanced - $10.000
2x2 Bedrock WallPretty hard to get
- So, how do you get money? You get $10 every 1,5 seconds until the fog is removed. After that, you get $500 when killing someone - So yes, it's pretty hard to get the 2x2 bedrock wall
- I made a, in my totally unbiased opinion, cool effect
updated it and made it 200% better
- "Small" - $500
- Disasters or random world events. A combination of the events I have thought of are:
- Alien Invasion: Slimes fall from the sky
- Blizzard/hailstorm: Ice falls from the sky
- Ingravity: Players are launched itno the sky (for my mathematician dudes, (0, [random between 0 and 2], 0)) and the gravity is removed for 2 seconds
- Meteor Shower: Netherrack falls from the sky and generates a small explosion, which, if unlucky, will hurt the player
- Thunder Storm: Like the Minerware microgame, ligthing will spawn.
- Rise of the Undead: Random mobs will spawn
Where all that stuff spawns is calculated getting the player location and adding a random number (so they'll never spawn on the player). Every 5 minutes, there's a chance of 30% of a dice getting thrown. Then, based on the number, a disaster is picked
All the current disasters combined:
(the combinaton is impossible to survive)

Team Selector:
kit selector (looks ugly ik)
:
Entering build mode message
The famous cross teaming message message (and a reminder of the trolling offense). Why? Because it makes the minigame look professional & makes me feel a pro
Core has been destroyed mesage - each team has a colour assigned, so the message will be pink when the pink core gets destroyed, etc

Edit: all blocks are breakable, unlike BlockWars
Notes:
- Although it should be fully working, I haven't tested it thoroughly. So it might. and will, have bugs
- imo it'd be really nice to get 40 people play the game. If you're interested, PM me *cough* @Younisco community games *cough*
