This thread is where the potion wand came from and blessed mode. Yup these ideas were written down a while back. @jollow250
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/lucky-islands-feedback-suggestions.197949/
A lot of general ideas came from here.

Took achievement ideas from here. @Sophie
With the major update, we got more achievements, new textures, new wands and new gamemodes.
Premium voting options that can change the game to be insane or the ability to only get lucky loot. In comparison to pre-release were you could only vote for the time of day (booooooring). Not sure how this specific change has "ruined everything" like you mentioned.
When we get feedback from community members, it helps us improve our gamemodes. Why this is such a great thread by @SanCookie and as you can see from the threads above, we didn't ignore their ideas.
Here's a bump, since I've experienced ALL of these actions at least once (mostly more).
And I don't want this thread to get locked by Necro-posters

Why are people so negative about the new update of Lucky Islands its like every other update like skywars and eggwars there where negtive thinngs about it
It actually is not like any other updates, of course there are good things about this update (but they aren't always obvious), I'm playing this gamemode like every day, and I'm telling the developers and the community what I really don't like about this update,that's why I am so "negative" about this update
1. The knight is actually pretty easy. Its AI is so dumb you just have to build 3 blocks up and it won't hit you. It isn't able to go down ladders and after a while it will just focus another player. Lol.
2. It's actually pretty easy to combat this. Just make a 2 block wall or just get a shield. I'm pretty sure iron and wood aren't rare in Lucky Islands. Besides most people have terrible aim.
2.1. Didn't know it could be destroyed by tnt. That's an interesting bug.
I still like that bow tho. It's a nice weapon to catch up to a player or run away from one.
3. Lol, stop whining. This could happen in any game. Survival Games, Skywars even Infection. Someone got lucky. Adapt to your situation and overcome it.
4. Pretty much another bug.
5. Another bug.
6. Uhm, sure why not.
7. Other people were complaning about players rushing them through middle. I really don't see a problem. Just try another opponent or something.
8. Meh, I quite like the lobby.
9. I don't mind this. Potions aren't a big problem.
10. No. Just no. Adding a cooldown a Elytra is just no fun. Besides it's just 2 points from 1 player.
11. Or get a compass.
12. Sure.
13. I'm not sure why that happens. Doesn't really happen to me.
14. Or you adapt to your situation instead of whining about it? Like mining some stone, chopping some trees. Waiting until you get some food or blocks from a Lucky Block.
15. Most people wait for their loot. Which slows down the game. I like it that way. People rather wait instead of rush. I do agree it can be difficult during a fight. But why would you open a cubelet during a fight? You can aswell defeat that player and then open a cubelet.
16. That indeed can be annoying.
17. They're just cats. In Survival Games you have dogs. Same thing right. Just place some lava or water. It's not that hard.

Hello thanks for you feedback!
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/lucky-islands-map-feedback.202239/
Sorry took a while :P
1. Knight: I don't like the idea of nerfing the knight, yes it's powerful and it's unlucky if it spawns on your island, but that's what lucky islands is, unpredictable. There is an easy counter of just building up, what I tend to do. You get an achievement in team lucky islands for killing the knight because it's hard. However I really like your idea of specifying the person that killed the knight and getting points for the kill.
2. Automatic bow: It is a very OP weapon, it's a weapon that can save your life if you have no gear and a full geared dude is charging at you. Yes it's super annoying to get killed by because of the knockback, but it's equally satisfying to be the one doing the killing. After reading your ideas, I do feel it would be wise to nerf it a little, whether that's less arrows or increase rarity of it spawning.
Frozen shot bow: When a player has multiple frozen bows it can be extremely annoying. "When you shot an arrow with one bow, all frozen shot bows will charge up". This could work, it could also be viewed by a user as a bug. I feel the charge rate should be slower or the rarity of a frozen shot bow should be extremely rare.
3. Ore vein: You're right. After playing quite a few games and I found one of these veins, RIP other players. The amount of diamonds should be decreased and perhaps changing gold ore to coal.
4. Tower: Sounds fair!
5. Beacon: Good idea!
6. Blessed mode: Adding your suggestions sounds good!
7. Underwater map: So I moved the inner island down due to players rushing with a sword. A staff member brought this up to me during lucky islands testing and that same day I had been killed instantly everytime I played this map, so I agreed with changing the map. Although after reading this feedback you gave, I have been a lot more careful when making little edits to maps. As a result staff now ask forum users their opinions on edits to maps:
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/official-editing-a-map.203077/
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/official-change-this-bridge.203278/
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/official-removing-a-generator.202904/
As for changing this map back, I will create a thread in future with a similar format, as I want feedback.
8. Lobby: It's good to add a fresh lick of paint every now and then. I'd be willing to create a new lobby if we made major changes to our lobby format or introduced a new mode.
9. Potion kit: This is quite confusing why you get 2 poison potions, changing one of them to a health potion is a good idea.
10. Elytra: Personally I've had or seen no issues with elytras, they're just cool to use.
11. Players hiding: This happens in near enough every game, it's really dependant on the map with how difficult it is. If it's near the end of the game, you'd typically have a player tracker solving the issue.
12. Tree + Axe: Improving this luckyblock so the axe doesn't fly away sounds good.
13. Detected too many packets: It's pretty annoying having to wait, however I'm not sure if can be fixed. I'm not a developer with years of experience in Java, if they are asked to try and solve it and simply can't due to Minecraft mechanics, then it can't be fixed. They know our infrastructure and java development better than anyone.
One potential solution is implementing a system similar to what we did with Ender, but the amount of times everyone played without the texture pack because they ran past, forgot it existed or didn't know it existed made the game half as good as it should be.
14. Clouds: As you probably know I've been making edits to some lucky islands maps, I'll make sure to add haybales to this map when I push that update. (Shouldn't take long).
15. Animations: To me they look amazing, pretty sure grappling bow shows a hook, and shotgun bow shows 5 arrows being shot? Seem pretty different to me.
16. Last second games: It's called 'Quick Join' so the system tries to find a full game, so you can play 'quick'ly. Preset kits is a feature I know a lot of people wanted for so long.
17. Cats: I like the addition of cats, they can be hard to fight but it adds a new challenge to try and counter. Idk I don't have any issues with em.

I wouldn't be as drastic as to say it has ruined an entire gamemode. Sure, some of the lucky blocks aren't perfect that doesn't mean they can't be polished. A lot of the features we implemented, we took from suggestions.

1. Okay building 3 blocks up isn't always possible, since it can spawn on the first Lucky block, I'm actually talking about these situations, sorry if that wasn't fully clear.
I like the idea of where you get kill credit for slaying the knight much more xD
2. This bow depends on everything but aim if the players are standing about 10 blocks from each other, and building a 2 high wall to defend isn't easy if you get knocked about a block every second, but I get what you mean.
2.1. Yeah it is, I am not going to report it anyways, since I don't really like the bug report layout.
3. I know this can happen in any game, but in Lucky Islands, this gives a huge advantage. Most of the players don't get any armor at all, and they can't just get it from chests, it's a bit too OP.
4. I woudn't say it's a bug, but maybe you're right.
5. Same as 4.
6. Well, good!
7. Probably, as long as they don't change pond, it's ok.
8. Some do, some don't.
9. It actually is, getting poisoned for 45 seconds is not fun at all, it ruins the whole game as you're just hiding, waiting to get 1-hit.
10. It is annoying as it already are only 2 points, if this happens 100 times (which actually does happen that much, or I'm just unlucky) you missed 200 points.
11. What if I didn't get a compass the whole game? So annoying.
12. Oki
13. Mostly depends on your computer, but on other servers, I don't have this problem at all, even if it's a much bigger texture pack.
14. Food isn't that common anymore with the new stuff that got added. Hay bales really are needed on this map. And about the building blocks, yes, for one time, it's ok, for 10 times, it can get annoying, but if Lucky Islands is your regularly mode, and you played that map 100 times, at least, then it really gets annoying, that's the reason why I quit the map a long time ago.
15. Cubelet? But ok I know what you mean, it's a strategy, to test your luck while you're running, you could get a diamond sword and fight back, or a frozen shot bow and sho... never mind, it takes 5 seconds to get the bow, your opponent already got the bow.
16. True!
17. Uh if lava/water buckets were actually a thing in Lucky Islands I woudn't complain about it, the only problem is that you won't get a bucket from a Lucky Block.

@The First Hokage here's your reply!
@Efcluke94
Thanks for your reply anyways! Let's see what I can reply to it! ;p
1. Yes, it can be annoying, but if it spawns on the first 3-5 lucky blocks, there's mostly no way to build up. I guess it's just a part of the game, if you're unlucky.
2. Nerfing the bow sounds good for me, doesn't need to be that much, but still.
2. That's an idea! Making it extremely rare, I like it :)
3. Totally right! Can't wait to smelt those iron ores! (;
4+5. Yay!
6. Glad to hear that!
7. Luckily that's a thing now, and I guess the most players won't agree to this, but players like me, who like rushing, will agree to this, but there aren't that many like us. We'll see.
8. Sounds fair enough for me, then, I'll be hoping for a new lobby format soon :p
9. If that was already confusing, the [0:20] seconds posion potion already was a health potion, but it got changed to that potion, could this be because someone made a little mistake? I don't know, but I didn't like it that much ://
10. Oh, well, I guess I play too much then, because I commonly see these things happen.
11. I am that unlucky I don't get a player tracker very often, even not after opening every lucky block in the game, so I had a lot of experience with this problem in the past. (most of the times, it happens on the map Frost).
12. Thanks!
13. Well, other servers have a custom texture pack too, but it doesn't seem to happen on these servers, it depends more on the pc players use. I myself have a bit of a bad laptop and experience the problem every day multiple times. It's mainly an anticheat effect.
14. Thanks for listening! :)
15. Although it's right what you say, I meant something else, it's the time of these animations that bother me, they can take up longer than destroying a wood block with your fist.
16. It's a thing they can add because many people want this, please :p
17. Don't underestimate cats, they are, exept from the void, my main reason to dying xd
Thanks again for your reply, I can't wait untill some changes will be added! :)

Well, thanks! (but it didn't ruin everything, just brought an insane amount of bugs) xd
Well you could mine some... It's not that hard if you have a good pickaxe as kit.
Well you could also take the slow path and mine some ores on each Island? That's how I get my gear most of the times. Besides knockback works too against full Diamond players.
I still don't think you should remove the fun of using an elytra just because players are not able to get their points.
Oops, I meant a Lucky Block.
Well you could always craft them. 3 iron isn't much you know. Some maps have water and lava in certain places which you could use.
I don't always pick the miner kit, if it spawns on the first block , your game is ruined
If it fails, you'll still die, it's annoying to make every game about 10 minutes when I'm just going for wins
It's still annoying
np
Some maps, not all of them, actually there aren't a lot of maps where you'll get lava
