" 200 Players Build a MASSIVE Civilization in Minecraft "
- The Final Battle. Featuring the combined armies of the United Sands facing off against the remaining forces of the Solev Union atop the Jungle's defensive Tower of "The Wooden Fence," it featured the most intense fighting so far in the entire event. Due to the height of The Tower, attackers were forced to pillar up to reach the defenders, or risk getting mobbed on the inside ladder. The archers inside rained a constant volley of arrows down at the besieging forces, forcing them to take cover or risk falling to their deaths. To combat this, a team of soldiers decided to build a covered walkway from further out than the initial efforts, allowing them to carefully scale the height of the tower without taking too much arrow fire, while covering the path to stop them from falling off. In addition, Zombta decided to use the Outside-the-Box Tactic of using jungle tree saplings planted 2x2 and grown using bone meal to rapidly scale up to the height of the tower, reaching above in this manner. Solev jumps down in an attempt to stop him in a Heroic Sacrifice, but Zombta knocks Solev off the platform they were building up from, causing him to fall to his death. Using their two techniques, these two groups of soldiers manage to "crack the puzzle of the Wooden Fence," Storming the Castle and slaughtering the defenders, killing 9209 and forcing the rest to flee for their lives, marking a climactic conclusion to the great world war.
- Special mention goes to The Tower itself, as it was designed from the ground up with every sort of Minecraft defensive structure one could ever dream of. The top of the tower was a large balustrade surrounded with murder holes and arrow slits for the defenders to rain fire on attackers coming from the outside, while the inside was flooded with lava to make breaching the interior difficult and risky. The defenders came armed with numerous arrows ready to shoot down any enemy that comes near, while having lava buckets to drown out any coming from directly below. A tough nut to crack, the defenders managed to take down several attackers until the attackers managed to Storm the Castle.
" 200 Players Simulate Survival Island in Minecraft "
- The fact that some players managed to build a working flying machine to get off of the island. Despite most of the group falling off of the plane and into the void, as revealed by Word of Saint Paul, one player managed to survive and reach the edge of the map. Unfortunately, he was doomed to die by the next event, which required him to sacrifice something to the center of the map, after he had dismantled the flying machine.
- The willingness for some of the players during the final event to sacrifice themselves for the sake of others.
- The members of Hope's Bounty refusing to kill others and instead standing together to await their deaths by lightning.
- TyrranicalRule sacrificing himself to Dino_Adventure, despite having already gotten a kill himself, to allow Dino to escape.
- THAN0SCHICKEN's quick thinking to sacrifice himself to save WoodDaddy's life by letting WoodDaddy punch him, then jumping off the tower to give him a kill.
" 1000 Players Simulate Prison in Minecraft "
- Solev and his elite team successfully holding off the entirety of the prison population from escaping after the prison doors malfunctioned due to lack of funds, standing together in a line to block off the exit and fire a swarm of arrows to keep the crowd at bay.
- All of the prisoners standing up to Solev and MagicGum's order for them to fight as 4 separate teams against each other, instead teaming up to take down the Warden and his elite squad, massacring the guards who previously effectively kept the peace, and forcing Solev's elite squad out to maintain order.
- The escapees and defecting guards coming back to the prison and breaking back in in order to reinforce the remaining prisoners, successfully breaching the walls and joining the fight, finally defeating the Elite Team and allowing for the prisoners to either escape or reach the top of the Warden's tower to kill MagicGum.
" 1000 Players Simulate Civilizations in Minecraft "
- The mere fact that Ish managed to get 1000 players to simulate civilization together, accommodating for the sheer quantity by enlarging the map and using a big enough server to minimize lag and give the players enough resources to survive and thrive, as well as featuring many returning players from previous events all working together to make numerous civilizations. This size also allowed for multiple different civilizations to form on each island this time around, increasing the amount of diplomacy that occurred and enlarging the story to a truly epic scale.
- The Plains factions getting together and actually talking out their differences despite the efforts of a propagandist to turn them against each other. With skilled mediation from the Tavern, Sidefall and HorusCrowned were able to come to an agreement over whether or not the Plains should ally with outsiders, as well as mending the frayed relationships between the two groups. This would allow them to form an alliance between the Plains states, an alliance that was able to stand toe to toe with Aculon while providing aid to the downtrodden.
- Wazz0ck deciding to turn himself in after using his Pit Trap to kill several members of the Sea Peoples and Seth's nation, showing that, despite originally wanting to conquer the world, he was more than willing to give himself up to ensure world peace.
- The Alliance of Democratic Nations gathering together and declaring war on the Aculon Empire and its associates to avenge AFreakinTurkey and his supporters' death at the hands of Elanuelo and his personal guard, both for how many people were dedicated to fighting the tyranny of Elaneulo and the massive coordinated effort they all made to prosecute the war.
- Once again, just like in the Final Battle of the first season, The Alliance faces off against Elaneulo and his allies at a tall tower called the Iron Torch. Once again capped with an embrasure studded with murder holes and arrow slits, this time, The Tower is capped with a layer of lava to prevent anyone from jumping in from the top, while maintaining the interior lava covering of the Wooden Fence. Once again, the besiegers use every trick in the book to try and scale the walls safely without being knocked to the ground by the massed arrow fire. This includes building from far away with covered bridges and using 2x2 bone mealed jungle saplings to quickly scale the sides. The defenders put up a nasty fight, killing several Alliance soldiers including Zombta at the walls of the original Elanuefort, before furiously guarding the ladder up, killing several more by dropping dripstone on top of them. However, the attackers, using both brute force and the special techniques, manage to breach the top of the fortress, forcing the defenders to fight a desperate melee as TNT goes off underneath their feet, destroying some of the platforms and causing some players to die. Finally, just as the defenders start building above the tower to breach it en masse, a mole finally manages to catch Elanuelo perched out on the embrasure firing at the climbers and mines the block out from under him, causing Elanuelo to fall to his death. This disorganizes the Aculon Army, causing them to surrender, ending the Aculon war in favor of the attackers.
