SKYBLOCK RELEASE DATE
Hi everyone! We’re incredibly excited to announce that we’ll be releasing the next season of Skyblock on Friday, 19 June 2020 at 4 PM EST. We’ve been testing the features, squashing bugs, and making optimizations for the past few weeks and cannot wait for you all to explore the new map!
This season of Skyblock will be chock-full of events, including some of the server favorites such as Block Rush, Musical Beds and more! Every Saturday will feature at least two events plus some other random events done throughout the week!
RANK GIVEAWAY
Want a chance to earn a free rank on the Skyblock server? Check out our latest tweet for information on how to enter!
We want to see how creative you all can be when it comes to building on your islands! For this reason, we’ll be running a build competition from the time Skyblock releases to 26 June 2020.
The challenge is to make the most aesthetically pleasing island while still adding value blocks! The top islands will find a way to integrate emerald blocks, diamond blocks, gold blocks (and the rest!) to their build while still making a beautiful and functional island.
The winner of this competition will receive 1 Magic Crate Key for each member of their island as well as having their island showcased at spawn.
In order to enter, submit your island name to this thread once you’ve established an island so that we may judge the competitors!
