What do you guys want in a PvP arena?

[Blackjack]

Hello all, for a while now (since before Greycliff was released) I've been working on a village around a castle inside a valley, with the intention of making it a pvp minigame.

Right now, in the village, I have secret passageways, underground tunnels, hidden buttons, spawners in random locations, traps galore, a pretty enormous castle, etc. Those of you who are familiar with the village and know all it's tricks will be able to disappear underground, and reappear just as quickly to escape people. But, it's not actually done yet, and you can warp to the region without being killed, as pvp is off. The warp is /warp oreos. There's a setup room under an ocean outside the valley, with rules explaining it, ways to set conditions of the arena, and warp pads that bring to random areas in it, to evenly distribute everyone throughout it.


But I still want to add more stuff to it, so tell me what you guys want in a pvp arena. There can be additional options to the game, so far teams can set conditions on armor, weapons, potions, lightning knives, etc, and tournaments can be set up in brackets until there's a finale, where the wining team or player gets a prize.

It should be noted, by default rules of the arena, if conditions regarding keeping items are not specified BEFORE pvp takes place, items are KEPT after death.

Currently the only two ways into the underground tunnel system without knowing any of the hidden buttons are the mine, and the well in town. But everything is connected, every house but two has a passage. I'm serious when I say I want your suggestions guys.

Feel free to check it out, it's /warp oreos. Knowing where everything is will give you an edge.
PS: It's pointless creating warps there, when the arena is finished warping and teleportation will be disabled everywhere but the castle garden, probably.

(Yes, the warp will change when I'm done actually building it)

Edit: If you guys want to HELP build the arena, just reply here and ask me when I'm online in game.

I currently need to expand the lower tunnels, add more traps, and connect those last two houses, though the list will probably expand after the replies on this post.

Redstone help is highly appreciated, but you have to be GOOD with redstone.

I'm decent with redstone, and I'd like to help. My IGN is Joyman533.

We should have a pvp arena in which one's kills are transferred into tokens that can be spent on cool shizz.

Then people with the best stuff would dominate and get a ton of those tokens.

As if the pvp arena isnt awesome enough at the moment, I would like to see cloud jump pads introduced. I can imagine people soaring through the sky on blue clouds picking people off with bows! That would be so cool!

A destroyed bridge.
1. Artificial rivers are NOT that hard.
2. Bridges? Easy to make.
3. Then we greif the hell outta that thing.
4. Boom, there you go. Bride that is hard to get across due to large gaps and possibly fire.

Sound good? I can help with the redstone, you know my IGN.
Somewhat good with redstone, so I could help if you want. I also invented my own personal blueprint for a 3x3 piston door, so if that'll come in handy at any time, just say so.
Quite easy to make, actually.

What about hidden chests? These chests could be similar to COD's care package idea without the need for a killstreak. They could contain weapons of your choice, either Aether or vanilla, or something else that would give a player a slight, temporary advantage. Hidden chest locations could either change, or be hidden really well with redstone contraptions. My idea is that these chest are impossibly hard to find.

I like that idea. I'll add some good spots for that.

I have an artificial river, VepaS helped me make one through a mountain. It forms a moat around the castle.
I've got 3 bridges

The town has been griefed to hell, thank Wizard and Chedd for that.

I don't have a difficult bridge yet though.

wouldnt people jsut bring their own weapons? probly echanted / diamond already?

[Blackjack]

It would be optional. I already have settings in the setup room specifying what will be going on in the game, and allowing weapons is one of them.
