Introducing Lifesteal – Our new competitive PvP realm!

Lifesteal will replace the Factions realm. All perks and season vault items from Factions will carry over, and you have one week to vault your SVA items. Lifesteal offers a unique blend of hardcore PvP mechanics, a modern 1.21 meta, and new challenges. Here’s everything you need to know:​



Open Beta: Lifesteal is now open for beta testing to all Elite members. Your feedback is crucial to polish the gameplay experience before the official release. Changes made during beta will be reflected in the changelog below.

You can post feedback to #beta on Discord or reply to this thread. Bugs should be reported to staff or QA members
Type /lifesteal to join!

Beta Leaderboard
Top 3 players on each leaderboard will receive 10 cubits each at the end of the beta!


Main Release Date
October 19th, 2024 1:00PM EDT
is the official release of Lifesteal! All progress from the beta server will be wiped for the main launch.

Beta Changelog:
  • Increased Golden Apple cooldown to 20 seconds
  • Fixed custom fishing
  • Downsides the LPS map


Starting Hearts: You begin with 10 hearts.

Lifesteal: Killing another player will steal 1 heart from them. You can accumulate up to 20 hearts.

Earn Hearts: Additional hearts can be earned from in-game events and crates.

Deathbans: Trade 10 hearts for an extra life to protect yourself from being deathbanned. Running out of hearts and lives results in a 24-hour deathban. (Death ban is 1 minute during beta)

Visibility: Other players can see your heart and life count above your head and in the tab list.

Balance Stealing: Killing another player also steals 5% of their $ balance




Modern PvP Items: Maces, end crystals, respawn anchors, and more!

Handcannon: Shoots projectile TNT + acts as a strong bow booster if shot at self. Requires TnT in inventory to use

  • Golden Apple: 10 seconds
  • God Apple: 3 minutes
  • Totem: 5 minutes

Team Features: Teams can have up to 10 members, with perks like group homes, private chat, shared vaults, a team bank, and protection from friendly fire.

Team Progression: Level up your team by purchasing team levels to unlock more vault slots and customize your prefix colors. Team vaults are valuable as the only other private storage is through ender chests.

Raiding & Block Protections: There is no land claiming. Chests and spawners have inherit durability-based protection—they take 15 seconds to break. Raid alerts are sent when these blocks are attacked, including offline alerts sent to your Discord account.
