- [Narrator] 25 Ways to
Ruin Your Friends Server in Minecraft. When you join a multiplayer
server, the door gets opened to all kinds of pranks, traps, and mayhem. So today, we're looking at the top ways to mess with your friends,
and your enemies on the realm. And hey, YouTube tells me the fastest anyone's ever subscribed to the
channel is two seconds flat, but I think we can do better. So to beat that record, speedrun to that red sub button below. It's free and it helps out a ton. Number one: let me know if
this has happened to you. You're playing on an SMP with friends, and each of you making
progress at the same time, until one of you gets a bit too eager and then slays the dragon by themselves. It's a frustrating realization for sure. So to keep that final
destination off limits, our solution comes down to dripstone. By dropping a couple of
these from a tall height, we guarantee that whoever
goes through that portal next is in for a short trip. And folks, this will even works
regardless of their armor, making it a perfect addition
for your next manhunt trap. Number two: finding diamonds in Minecraft should be cause for celebration. But with a setup like this,
that excitement is short-lived. See, if you really want to prank
your friends on the server, then why not head down to the mines and booby trap the various ores? All it takes is an observer
angled the right way and we can use that block
update to end their excursion. Really, it's that simple to
pull off; and with a quick fuse, there'll be nothing more
than a pile of items before they can even finish
counting their diamonds. Number three: we all know
that one person on the server who has way too many animals at the farm. And at this point, it's
starting to seem like a problem. So to cut that back and give them a lesson on
the importance of free range, why don't we do them a favor and continue to breed those animals? See, by overcrowding their pig pen, we can guarantee that at a certain point, the entity cramming kicks
in, and that ruins their fun, which, from there, all
it takes is one misstep, and anyone trying to clean up the problem will get squished just the same. Number four: trapping your friends in
Minecraft is a real joy. But in a game where even
bedrock can be destroyed, how do you keep them from breaking out? Well, according to the evil
masterminds of the community, we've got a solution like
this to do the trick. See, when we lay it out like such, even our best tools are
practically useless to bust us out. Or for an even better trap, why not follow what EagleEye621 said and use glitched end crystals
for a truly inescapable plan. And I'm guessing your
friend gives up on escaping before any of these give out. Number five: now, we're
all well and familiar with the concept of the creeper holes. And while these eyesores
typically get filled in, some players aren't as polite, and that lack of manners can lead to something of an infestation. So to teach the server a lesson on the importance of filling
in their hollow holes, why don't we try something like this? Simply remove the blocks
underneath the surface and then cover it up with top soil. Then after enough time,
the mobs will spawn and give whoever cleans
them up quite the startle; and maybe next time they'll
fill in their mistakes when they're asked to. Number six. The 1.18 update is set to
bring a ton of new features to Minecraft's base game, and the sculk sensor is chief among those. But what can be a useful tool for redstone can just as easily be a weapon, and these bombs show us much. See, by laying out our sensors on either end of this activator rail, we make this trap unbreakable, since if they take out any blocks nearby, the sounds trigger the pulse
and it starts the explosion. And at that point, they
might as well relocate since there's really only
one way to get rid of it. Number seven. Falling into water is a
staple of Minecraft's safety, which means no one will
expect their water chute to be a kill chamber instead. And while we've done this
with lapis in the past, I think this is even better. See, with vertical redstone, we can have them fall through a tripwire and then change our water
drop into a lava one instead, causing both a sudden
death and a loss of items. And since we use the block updates caused by moving a wall with a piston, the redstone to do this is instantaneous, meaning they'll be none the
wiser for what's in store. Number eight. Now, by themselves, these
zombies aren't much of a pain, but pack in a whole bunch of them, and we've got something even scarier, lag; and that, folks, is the last
thing you want on a server. So to give your friends a tough time, why don't we use an
undead union of our own? After grabbing a bunch of zombies, lay down a pile of items, and then wait for them to pick it up. And from there, once
their hands are stuffed, those suckers aren't gonna de-spawn, giving us the mobile lag machine to place right in your friend's base. Number nine. Let's be honest, no one likes
waiting for crops to grow, and sometimes that waiting
game can feel like forever, but in this case, that's actually true. See, while our friend wasn't looking, we snuck in and placed string tripwire along the top of their
bamboo and sugar cane, which, when standing back here, is an almost imperceptible change, but it means that the crops
cannot grow past that point. Meaning if you do this inside the mechanics of a redstone farm, they'll be totally confused
as to why it stopped working, and now they'll be buying
all their bamboo from you. Number 10. The best place to put a trap
is where you'd least expect it. And I don't know about you,
but I generally don't plan on my ladder being the death of me. But after seeing this,
I'll have to reconsider. Now the setup here is
actually quite simple, but I love the execution. The idea is that our victim
climbs up their ladder, flips the trapdoor to exit, and that leads to a
piston to shift the wall and break all of their ladders. From there, we drop them into lava, TNT, or just about anything
else to finish the job, and it's as simple as that. Number 11. Everyone knows that when you
break all the logs in a tree, the leaves should disappear. Well, that doesn't explain why
these are still left standing hours after the trunk. And no, this doesn't have anything to do with update suppression or changing the random
tick speed, but rather, we just replace the leaves
on your friend's trees with ones of our own. Then once we place them back down, these decoration blocks can
no longer de-spawn over time, which not only gives them an eyesore, but it also guarantees a couple of chores for them to clean them up. And let's hope they have
a good pair of shears. Number 12. Exploring the end can be
a treacherous experience, and usually we like to
mitigate risk when we can. But if you're sick of your
friends raiding the end islands before you can, this
might be the solution. As you'll notice, every time we go through the
gateway to the outer end, we always land at the same block, which means we can plant a trap like so to guarantee any future
visitors have a bad time. And furthermore, using
TNT minecarts like this will make this whole thing explode faster than you can possibly
subscribe to the channel, which pretty much
guarantees a sudden death. Number 13: chickens
can be pretty annoying. After all, they keep laying eggs, so usually, we just end up with way more of these items than we need. But in this case, we can
use that to our advantage. See, for our master plan, all we need to do is load
up a bunch of chickens on a hopper like so, and then every time they lay an egg, it's fired out of a dispenser
in a hidden location. Place this at your friend's
base, and before they know it, they'll be inundated with baby chickens all the while confused
about where they came from. Number 14. Scaffolding is a pretty useful tool, and a big part of that is
how easy it is to clean up. But as some pointed out, that speed can just as easily
be turned to the dark side. As is, if we prep something dangerous like a lava bucket or an anvil up top, then when your friend
comes by to break it, they'll be treated to a
nasty surprise from above. And the best part? They can't even reasonably
build up the blocks to stop it. So while they try and save their stuff, you can sit back and enjoy the show. Number 15. Anvils are great, but they
can quickly get problematic, and I think we're all
familiar with this message that the cost has gotten too expensive. It's a rough sight for sure, but one we can use to prank our friends. Now if your friend is reckless enough to leave their tools
lying about in a chest or an item frame, then that's
your perfect opportunity. In that case, we grab the tools and then change them a
bunch to drag up the costs. Then when done, you make
it look like the original, and they'll be quite surprised
next time they go to repair and they can't even do it. Number 16: when you're
playing on a server, lag is a common frustration;
and unfortunately, some of us experience it more than others. So if you want to get back at that friend with high speed internet, this
door is the perfect prank. Now the mechanics at
play are fairly simple. All that's happening is that once they stand
on the pressure plate, it only opens once they step off. And as some of us know, this is indistinguishable from
a laggy server connection, meaning they'll be stuck doing this little shuffle back and forth and will never be able to get inside. Number 17. Truth be told, pranks in Minecraft are a
lot easier than real life, but that doesn't mean
there isn't any overlap, and this is a great mix of the two. See, in the real world, we usually place a water
cup on the top of a door, but here, we can use TNT instead. And after aligning the
minecarts along a chest, we can balance that one pixel just right to keep it steady until someone comes. And then once they open
the door to step in, they'll knock the minecarts
onto the powered rail, and the rest is history. Number 18. Now, by all counts, armor
stands seem pretty harmless. After all, they don't even have arms, so what's the worst they can do? well, according to
channels like The Horizon, quite a lot actually. Since we can overlap these
entities into the same block, we can get a lot of lag
in a small footprint, meaning after getting enough
of these into position, the game's ticks per
second will slow way down. And then after dropping
these on a fence with water, the lag gets even worse. And from that point, we
continue to drop the TPS and make the server borderline unplayable. Number 19. At some point, we've all known someone who just cuts down every tree in sight; and, of course, they
never replant them either, which leads to the base
looking barren and empty. So to prevent against that, let's take after this Reddit user and stick a surprise in our trees. With this, they can't see the trap, but sure enough, as soon as
they chop down all the logs, they'll be treated to quite
a few anvils from the sky. Then that way, even if
they steal your oak, you can just grab it up with
the rest of their items. Number 20. Mob farms are a great asset to have; and typically, whoever
scores a spawner first winds up the richest player on the server. So if you're starting to get jealous of your friend's good fortune, this might solve that imbalance. The solution is just as simple as switching out the blocks in their floor to half slabs of the same type. With that little change,
they'll have a hard time getting any more monsters to spawn. And the best part is, that using a block like cobblestone makes this a tough
prank to even recognize, leaving them both confused and poor. Number 21. Nothing beats the comfort of your own bed. But with a machine like this, we can turn those sweet dreams into straight up nightmare fuel. And to set this up, we've got
a couple of different options, but all of which are based
around a manipulation of the respawn mechanics to make sure that our friends
always wake up in a lava bath. So while prisons like Pandora's
vault are a lot more flashy, this cuts down to the basics
and works just the same. So I'd suggest checking your
next bed very carefully, because even if there's
no monster underneath, this still fits the bill. Number 22. Moss seems like a pretty harmless block, but add in some bonemeal, and that bit of vegetation can
turn into serious devastation and that's what we're focusing on today. As you'll see, because this
block is so good at recruiting, we can wreck some serious havoc at the different bases on the server. And again, the cost is as cheap
as a few stacks of bonemeal, making this really easy to pull off. So while a stone hoe will
make the clean up quick, it'll still takes a lot of
work to put back to normal. Now honestly, I think
this looks quite nice. Number 23. Once you've branded
yourself as the prankster, it's hard to get people to trust you, which is usually a shame, but today, we can use
that to our advantage. Because even if your friend doesn't trust a random pressure plate, we can still use that as
a trigger for our trap. Since, once they break the pressure plate, it then goes down a hopper system and then it sets off a comparator to explode our TNT minecarts, which is a fantastic
reverse card in my eyes and it's something that
could work particularly well in a predetermined desert
temple, just saying. Number 24. If you've messed around
with gaming glitches, you're probably familiar with
the concept of a soft lock. That is, where the game is still playable, but the player can't
make any more progress. And while that's usually a sign
of lackluster play testing, today we'll be using
it for quite the prank. Now pulling this off might be tricky, but the idea hinges around getting your friend to set their spawn in a bed underneath that's the end portal, which, after that, means they can only respawn
in the end dimension with no hopes of escape; and I think that fits
the soft lock criteria. Number 25. Falling into the void is a
bad time, everyone knows that. But while you expect
that hazard in the end, the overworld is a different story. Because after seeing rekrap's
video on the subject, this plan just might come into fruition. Now, sure, the time that it
takes to break all the bedrock is a big investment; and to commit to pulling this off, you really need to really hold a grudge. But, come on, imagine
your friend's reaction when they not only fall
when they least expect it, but lose all their items
in the void as well. It's that's just too perfect. And with that, folks, please don't get banned and
have a good one, alright?
