Gameplay: Minetest Royal Rumble Fight with Xabi

The Minetest game, which is quite similar to the popular Minecraft game, is a realistic creative game and world of possibilities, where anything you can think of can be brought to life with a few tasks and the right mod, and just yesterday, I and Xabi were peered together to fight it out for Mr. Dragon doot which sadly ended in defeat for me.

I've always enjoyed spending time on minetest, and down the month since I joined the server in the city of Neoxian on minetest, it has been a delight through and through. Aside from the fact that we get the possibility of winning amazing prizes for performing some task, it's also a place that can literally bring out the creative mineset in you.

I've built myself two houses from scratch on the server, as do many other players. But not to bore you with my speech, if you wish to come and board and explore Minetest, then join us in the city of Neoxian on Discord and visit the Minetest channel to get the necessary details.

So back to the battle royale, or should I say royal rumble, that happened on the city of Neoxian minetest server yesterday. Between I and Xabi, Mr. D initiated a giveaway and stated that the people who got picked would get to fight it out at the minetest battle arena for his 100% vote, and Xabi and I were fortunate to be picked by the bot.

THE FIGHT

On getting to the serve to begin the fight, we're told each fight's rules of engagement in terms of what we can use and can't use before each round begins, and they are stated in I by Mr. D.

• ROUND 1: For round one, we can use any weapons of our choice, but we are not allowed to put on protective armor, so that literally means the person with a better weapon has the likeliness to win. It was barely a few seconds into the fight that I got hit by Xabi's sword, and it literally sent me outside the arena, and I died instantly. It was a very funny scenario, but that was all thanks to his powerful sword, which was made of nether compared to mine, which was made of diamond.

After dying, I disappeared into my house and quickly rushed back to the fighting arena, but I guess we both got too excited and began another fight without Mr D giving us a go ahead to do that. As expected, I was killed swiftly again, but then Mr D called us to caution and let us know he hasn't given us the go ahead so we have to restart the second round.

• ROUND 2: The rule of round two was that we are both free to put on protective armor, so we both rushed down to our various houses to get it because we dropped it off due to the round one rule. Not long after that, we came back and the fight began. This fight seems a bit longer because the armor reduces the effect of the sword, although Xabi still has an edge with a powerful sword, and I lasted longer than the first fight. In the end, he killed my character again, which gave him the win and the opportunity to get Mr. Neoxian's vote in his next post.

I enjoyed the fight, but now I guess I'll have to brace up and learn fighting strategy. I'll also need to get a better weapon, but until then I enjoyed myself, and I'm sure everyone who witnessed the fight had a great time while it lasted.
