The Complete Guide to Skywars (Hypixel and DestinyMC)
OK, So I'm betting everyone here knows skywars. If you don't, I'll explain what it is and how to win.
Now, I'll give a rundown of everything both servers have to offer.
There is one last thing to note: In Hypixel, 3 minutes after the game starts, all chests refill with loot normally found in that area. 2 minutes after that, and the chests refill again, though this time the spawn chests get enderpearls and golden apples. 2 minutes after that, sudden death occurs, spawning enderdragons one by one until there are about 3-4 dragons. If 2 minutes go by in sudden death, the game will end without a winner.

Well, that's it for this guide. If you would like to see something added in, simply reply. I most likely will see it and add it in (I'll also notify you when i do it).

IF you don't know what skywars is, it's a minigame that usually has 8-24 players per game. They all spawn on islands in the middle of the sky and there is no bottom layer, meaning that if you get knocked off, you aren't dying to fall damage, you're dying to the void. They usually spawn on the outside of a center island which contains a ton of loot, usually better than that of the spawn islands. Last one standing wins!
Now, I'll give a rundown of everything both servers have to offer.

Normal mode is a mode of Hypixel where the loot is normal. Usually players will spawn with gold armor, iron/stone pickaxes, iron swords, and, if they're lucky, a sharpness 1 stone sword or even 2 golden apples. The chests at middle are way better than the ones at spawn, containing protection 4 iron leggings, protection 2 diamond helmets, and fire protection 5 diamond boots. Combined with a fire aspect 1 iron sword, the saying 'Early bird gets the worm' definitely applies here. Oh, and there are knockback 2 slimeballs. They also have ender pearls and golden apples, but they both are pretty uncommon, and sometimes only one of them spawns in the chests.

Insane mode is a mode of Hypixel where the loot is insane. Usually players will spawn with diamond/iron armor, diamond sword (sometimes with sharpness 1), diamond pickaxes, and regeneration, speed, and poison potions. The chests at middle contain protection 4 diamond helmets and chestplates, diamond boots with protection 2 and fire protection 5, knockback 10 slimeballs, more potions, and loads of golden apples and ender pearls. If it wasn't already insane enough, there are insane modifiers that can change the game. To prevent this from becoming too much of a problem, only donor ranks can use them. They alter the game in ways such as spawning an enderdragon the second the game starts,

There is also a teams mode, and like solo mode, it has an insane and normal variant. Players will spawn in teams of 2, and there are 24 players per game, rather than the 12 players in solo mode. Besides that, there's nothing new.

Last, but certainly not least, is MEGA MODE. There are no insane or normal variants, and the loot is the same as insane mode. The maps are different, and there is one thing that separates it from the other modes: There are ONE HUNDRED PLAYERS PER GAME. Players spawn in teams of 5. Laggy internet connections usually don't do very well in this gamemode.
There is one last thing to note: In Hypixel, 3 minutes after the game starts, all chests refill with loot normally found in that area. 2 minutes after that, and the chests refill again, though this time the spawn chests get enderpearls and golden apples. 2 minutes after that, sudden death occurs, spawning enderdragons one by one until there are about 3-4 dragons. If 2 minutes go by in sudden death, the game will end without a winner.

In DestinyMC, there are no variants of the gamemode, but there are options to change the game. By right-clicking with a cake found in the inventory before the game starts, one can vote to change the game. The first type is jump boost. Normal jump keeps the jump height as normal, high jump doubles it, super jump goes 4 blocks, and god jump goes up to 10 blocks. Secondly

#1: The island rusher
This tactic is fairly straightforward, usually involving looting chests as fast as possible, bridging to other's islands before THEY'RE done looting, and killing them. Kits allow for people to rush without having to loot the chests for a weapon, such as ecologist, speleologist, and knight. A downside, though, is that you won't always get there before they're done, and if they were smart enough to only take the things they need (armor, weapon, blocks), then you might encounter some resistance, leaving you open to being janitored, or you could straight-up get killed by the guy you tried to ambush. Note that this is more dangerous in Hypixel's insane mode as the others may get better gear and beat you. In Mega Mode, this tactic is suicide as players spawn in teams of 5, meaning that you'll probably get 1 or 2 kills, then die. in DestinyMC, it's easier to do as most of the time people will vote for OP Chests, and you'll find enderpearls, golden apples, sharpness 5 stone swords, and super armor, enough to decimate people. However, if God Jump is activated, it will be a lot harder as they can keep jumping around, making it nearly impossible to kill them.
#2: The mid rusher
This tactic is also straightforward, like the island rusher. It involves you getting the chests at spawn as fast as you can, then bridging to middle immediately. If you get there before people are done, you can take all the overpowered gear there and win the game. Downsides come from Hypixel as if you're in a map where mid is pretty far off, others might finish looting, see you bridging, and knock you off with snowballs.
#3: The camper
This one is usually hated by people, and using it might bring people to call you a scrub (let's face it, you are acting like one if you do it). Gather all the blocks in your chests, and pile up really high (Make sure to stop when you have 32 blocks left). Then, build a platform so that if someone shoots you, you'll be fine. If they try climbing up to you, you can always get some projectiles and hit them off. In both DestinyMC and Hypixel, make a sort of a wall around your base so that people can't use enderpearls to get to you.
#4: The janitor
Again, you might get called a scrub for doing this. It's simple: Wait for people to start fighting. When they're both low on health or they're both done fighting, jump in and kill them. If you find yourself getting janitored, the best thing to do is A. Run away or B. Take them on if you have enough gear (and health) to do it.
