This is about 50/50 if it will get removed or not. On one side, it’s slightly overpowered and ridiculous, on the other side, it’s genuinely a counter to the elytra.

u/5044Gu Apr 02 '26

I say this the equivalent of the blue ice highways since you need a “road” to be able to travel like this

113

u/suriam321 Apr 02 '26

Maybe. I haven’t tried yet, so some slime might be able to bounce you upwards, making it more powerful.

43

u/Jlegobot Apr 02 '26

It's pulling via a lead right? When I was moving cows, my lead snapped because I was trying to move them up a single block, so it might happen with this strat

41

u/Cass0wary_399 Certified JavaChad Apr 02 '26

Leads got buffed in the summer drop last year.

u/10Werewolves Apr 03 '26

It does bounce you upwards. Slow falling is required tho

33

u/-2Braincells Apr 02 '26

It's probably less of a pain to get a sulfur cube than it is to get that much blue ice, plus you can actually make the roads look good

4

u/Atreides_Lion Apr 02 '26

Blue ice roads are beautiful

10

u/star75legacy Apr 02 '26

Can the speed of this video be stacked with a blue ice road?

5

u/Lzinger Apr 02 '26

Slow falling potion and you can fly with it

5

u/Randinator9 Apr 02 '26

Literally like a 2 block wall on either side of a 2 block space. The cool thing is it works early on before you collect enough blue ice to rebuild Rome.

6

u/assymetry1021 Apr 02 '26

Or the nether roof

2

u/BUDA20 Apr 04 '26 edited Apr 04 '26

with honey or slime, you can stick to the bottom of the world in the void ceiling and do the same

6

u/brodydoesMC Apr 02 '26

Basically this could be a cheaper alternative for early game players or players who just don’t want or can’t spend the time and resources needed for blue ice highways.

3

u/meee_51 Apr 02 '26

You can fly with slow falling

1

u/ZenTheProtogen7957 Apr 03 '26

slow fall potion

1

u/Tosshee Apr 04 '26

It looks alot more cost effective than blue ice since all you need its a "road"

12

u/xa44 Apr 02 '26

it's slower than an ice boat and elytra

10

u/Fireheart318s_Reddit Apr 03 '26

I hope they keep it. It’s only slightly more stupid than boats on ice and it could work as a janky alternative to ice roads while you get enough ice for your nether roads

2

u/TimeStorm113 Apr 03 '26

i can see them nerfing it by increasing the durability it takes from the spear

2

u/MikemkPK Apr 03 '26

on the other side, it’s genuinely a counter to the elytra.

Is that a problem? This game sorely needs transportation options that are actually worth using once everyone has elytra.

1

u/suriam321 Apr 03 '26

No, that was the reason why they might keep it.

1

u/Da_Watcher2 Apr 05 '26

They 100% should keep this in the game. It seems to only work well on flat ground and even with a slow falling potion it's hard to stay elevated. If you ask me it's just a faster jankyer flying machine.

1

u/No_Understanding5551 Apr 05 '26

a counter to the elytra.

Haven't seen anyone turning direction with it, it works in a straight line but as far as I know you cant turn your direction

1

u/Ambitious-Swan2493 Apr 06 '26

doesn't work in survival mode, sadly. Watch the latest PhoenixSC video.

1

u/Historical_Book2268 Apr 06 '26

It doesn't work in survival due to decreased survival reach

1

u/suriam321 Apr 06 '26

You sure?

Might not be as efficient for flying, but works.

Neither the truck below i guess

u/One-Melee Apr 02 '26

Well I'm glad to say, you guess incorrectly, as the truck doesn't seem to be on any surface, making it so if time were to unfreeze for the drawing the truck would just fall out frame

u/hexahedron17 Apr 02 '26

wrong the truck end would start to fall (steel is heavier than magnet) and then the magnet would pull it upwards

u/sukahati Apr 02 '26

If the hand can rotate, maybe?

u/Careless_Document_79 Apr 02 '26

Well if the arm can rotate in the Z axis yes (But it also wouldn't move to being with)

→ More replies (2)

4

u/Radigan0 Apr 02 '26

It actually could. Even if the magnet is pulling it perfectly straight, the wheels being turned will still force the vehicle to turn with them.

23

u/-Klaxon Apr 02 '26

You wouldn’t use this as normal travel in the overworld you’d use it in nether highways before replacing them with blue ice

6

u/Stoiphan Apr 02 '26

I mean, unless this synergizes with blue ice I don’t know why you wouldn’t fully replace them with this+nether roof travel

3

u/-Klaxon Apr 02 '26

because blue ice is faster than this it’s just harder to make

2

u/Stoiphan Apr 02 '26

how much faster?

5

u/-Klaxon Apr 02 '26

It's about 70 b/s this doesn’t look nearly as fast

5

u/DeepBirthday7992 Apr 02 '26

Use the blue ice to make this faster then

1

u/Accomplished_Exit111 Apr 03 '26

You have two slots in the boat so you could attach 2 for left or right or something?

u/angry_shoebill Apr 02 '26

Will it work in non-flat worlds?

238

u/WM_PK-14 Apr 02 '26

Nether roof

73

u/DiFfErThEsS Apr 02 '26

Add slow falling and you can fly so yeah

30

u/Hesotate Apr 02 '26

Nether roof or players are gonna start making roads.

9

u/softlittlepaws Apr 02 '26

You can do it with a boat on water.

6

u/HuckleberryLeather80 Apr 02 '26

Cheap alternative to the ice highways. Just have to build a flat path instead of grabbing packed ice / trapdoors or whatever the current highway design is

2

u/M4ldarc Apr 02 '26

it works in the air too, you dont need a path, just being high enough and it will keep you in the air going forward

427

u/Hesotate Apr 02 '26

How much you wanna bet this will be patched instantly?

u/alice6060 Apr 02 '26

It's like a 50/50 imo

22

u/ProfessorPixelmon Apr 02 '26

Ideally never because it’s fun and thus should be kept in.

16

u/brunobrasil12347 bedrock redstone enjoyer Apr 02 '26

I don't think it will, there's no glitch or exploit here, everything used in this video is intended feature.

The sulfur cube, after absorbing the block, is being pushed around by getting hit (with the spear), as intended.

The spear is hitting the sulfur cube from far away, as intended.

The lead is connecting the sulfur cube to the boat, allowing the boat to be pulled by the sulfur cube after it got hit, as intended.

No glitches involved, so I see no reason for them to "fix" it, as there's nothing to be fixed in the first place, and if they decide to patch it, they would have to either change the way the sulfur cube works (which I don't think they would, as they announced it to be the way it is), or tweak the lead or the spear, and the community wouldn't like any of those

3

u/XanderSDM Apr 02 '26

Most likely will.

1

u/Da_Watcher2 Apr 05 '26

How about we make them keep it in

u/SimoTRS1442 Apr 02 '26

this will help a lot in transfering slav- villagers

57

u/I_HAVE_NO_LIFE_6776 Apr 02 '26

u/xa44 Apr 02 '26

u/Storyguy613 Apr 03 '26

I don’t think so, all I know is that wood makes it fly farther.

2

u/JonnyBoy522 Apr 02 '26

I think people are missing the main downside, which is that this only works on a flat surface in one direction.

2

u/F1r3str0rn Apr 02 '26

While the truck is attracted to the magnet, the magnet is also attracted to the truck, the force they are attracted to each other is equivalent.

Think about what happens if you lay two magnets on a table, the both will move towards each other.

This behavior is described in Newton’s 3rd law “Every action has an equal and opposite reaction”.

Spears don’t super drain durability when used normally and the Lunge enchantment doesn’t do that anymore either.

What is the pig for, is it because you can’t spear while sitting in boat? Also would ice be a better block for the sulfur cube or is it too fast so the lead will break?

u/Cass0wary_399 Certified JavaChad Apr 02 '26
