About Showdown
Overview
Showdown is part of the PvP Events category. It is the first event that has a multi-mode selection that defines which event that will be played.
How to Play
Sumo (Mode)
Each player has 3 lives, knock the other player out of the arena. After some time, random blocks at the edge will vanish, making the arena smaller over time until only a small playable area remains. And after a considerable amount of time, both players are given a Knockback 1 enchanted stick. Last player standing wins.
Iron PvP (Mode)
Every player has 3 lives, and plays out like the original Kit PVP minigame where the goal is to kill the other player with limited amount of resources. Iron PvP gives as the name implies, a Full Iron armor and sword, gapples, a bow and a few arrows.
Tips
Stay aware of nearby players, keep track of the objective, and learn the safest routes through the arena. Small decisions often decide who survives the final round.
Select a mode (Event Pass only)
When you host the event, as a benefit of having the Event Pass, you can select between Iron PVP or Sumo mode.
This is the first event where the passholder can entirely choose which mode to play.
INFO
This only applies when they are the one hosting the event.
Which has a cooldown of 24 hours once one has been hosted.
