Yes, OP Skywars is fun and all, but you get bored quickly of efficiency 1337 picks and punch III bows. I think it'd make it more interesting if the following was implemented.

So here's my idea:
The Cubecraft devs have already demonstrated their ability to make items with custom enchantments, attributes, and behaviors, like the wither bow from SCB or the splegger from Splegg. I think it'd be super duper fantastic if we could have a super-OP version of Skywars. Here's just a few of the ideas that have popped into my head over the past week:

Wither Bow: A bow that fires wither bombs.
Ghast Cannon: A bow that fires ghast balls.
Blaze Bow: A bow that fires fireballs in rapid succession.
Hookshot Bow: A bow that catapults the user toward the target.
Lightning Bow: A bow that summons lightning on the target.
Mob Grenade: A throwable item that spawns a random mob, from squid to angry pigmen to ghast.
Flashbang: A throwable item that blinds anyone within range.
Jetpack: A wearable item that lets you propel yourself 5-10 blocks in the air. Uses up armor durability.
Lasso: A throwable item that ties the target to the player, letting you pull them off their island.
Giant Magnet: Causes all items on the ground to fly toward the user.
Airstrike Remote: A throwable item that lets you summon TNT up to 3 times.
Tank Armor: Armor that makes you move slower, but grants knockback resistance and extra protection. Ninja Armor: Armor that makes you move faster, but decreases knockback resistance.
Piston Gloves: An item that allows you to pick up entities and other players (and toss 'em!)
Anti-Gravity Weapons: Melee weapons that knock a player skyward instead of back.
Fish Bait: A throwable item that spawns squids riding squids, making an effective scapegoat.
Avalanche Summoner: Summons many falling blocks of different kinds above the islands, raining potential hazards and goodies alike on the islands.
Chaos Remote: Gives every player a random potion effect for 15 seconds.

Lemme know what you think, ideas and suggestions are welcomed, etc. etc. blah blah blah.

Sounds like a good idea, would open up a range of new tactics to use, would be interesting.
My one and only complaint with Minecraft is the lack of variation in items and gear. I hate that there's a definitive "best" armor/tool (prot IV diamond armor, sharpness V diamond sword) which is why I heavily encourage servers to utilize the movementspeed, maxhealth, and attackdamage attributes on less defensive armor sets. I could literally rant for hours on this topic.

On Topic:
We could also have pressure plates like they have in the lobbies >:3

It might get kinda hard to find people who use anti-knockback and fly. But for the rest it could be fun.

Great idea, this would make Skywars a lot more interesting :). Maybe there could be armor where if an arrow hits you, the arrow reflects off the piece of armor and goes back towards the player that fired it. The person with the armor on takes 0.5-3 hearts depending on what type of armor it hit, and what enchantments are on the bow.

I like the ideas a lot and they would defiantly make it way more interesting. Though about the Tank, it shouldnt have no knock back due to the fact that people would probably rage too much or even report the person of anti-kb and they could get falsely banned/ no way of telling if hacks or not.
Good point. No tank armor. Still other neat stuff though!

Well, first things first, does the jet pack have a durability, and if so, how LONG can you wear it for.
Second. Squids riding squids.. really.. XD
Third, piston gloves may be overpowered, depending if you have a duration on how long you have to throw the enemy.

All in all, with a couple of tweaks here and there, it's a good idea ;D

I dislike the Tank Armor due to the fact the hackers are all going to use that so no one will have an easy time trying to find these hackers. Even if it's just resistance.

  • You get 5-10 bursts before the jetpack breaks, meaning you can fly about 25-50 blocks, depending on how good you are at piloting it.
  • Squids make hitting other players really difficult because they have no death animation, meaning they just kinda sit there like a derpy shield.
  • The gloves get one use before they disappear. You can also escape the gloves by pressing Shift, just like getting off of a horse.
