The beginning of the adventure – the first opening of Lucky Block

Have you ever played Minecraft Lucky Block, but if you have – you know it's a complete lottery. You can get a diamond set, a magic sword, and you can... fly into the air faster than you can say "Oops".
And guess which option I got more often?

I start the game. I am standing on a flat meadow, the sun is shining, the birds are singing. In my inventory I have a wooden pickaxe, some food and... my first Lucky Block waiting to open.

"Okay, what could go wrong?" I think, then hit the block with my pickaxe.

💣 BOOM!

Suddenly, everything turns red, black, and then all I see is a big hole in the ground and the inscription "You Died". Yes, my first Lucky Block decided that my life was too boring and needed fireworks. I load the world again and return to the explosion site.

I look at the crater and sigh. "There is no turning back" – I think, I dig another Lucky Block and... A giant tower of chests falls from the sky!

Okay, that looks good. I try to open the first crate and suddenly I hear a hiss.

BAM! The tower explodes, and I fly into the air like a rocket launched. I landed in the exact same hole I had created five seconds earlier.

After a few minutes, I start to notice a certain trend: every time I hope for something good, I get a blast.

• Lucky Block Number 5: A pack of aggressive zombies on speed. Running away in panic, jumping into the water, forgetting that there is a drowned person in the water.
• Lucky Block Number 8: A Big Pool of Lava... right below me. I had time to think "No..." before I sank into the hot magma.
• Lucky Block Number 11: Super Powerful Sword! Diamond, enchanted, a real OP. I pick it up proudly, turn around and an anvil falls on me.

I have the impression that the game is starting to make fun of me. But I won't give up! Another Lucky Block!

I open another Lucky Block and... Diamond set! Full armor, the best you can get. Could it be that fate has finally smiled on me?

No.

Two seconds later, I hear a loud hiss and look around in panic. There are no snakes in Minecraft, right? But before I could think about it, a TNT cloud is falling from the sky.

Bum.

I look at the chat and see the inscription "Oscar ceased to exist".

I close my eyes. I count to three. I breathe deeply. I'm coming back to the world.

After so many explosions, I should quit this game. But not me. It's Lucky Block, so there's bound to be something lucky sometime, right?

I approach the next block. I dig it with faith in the future. And suddenly...
… the ENDER DRAGON falls on me.
Yes. Genuine. Alive. .

We look at each other for a few seconds. He roars. I roar. He is destroying the world. I smash the keyboard.

"Minecraft is a beautiful game," I think as the dragon sweeps me away with a single slap of its wings.

After an hour of playing and countless explosions, I learned a few things:

1. Lucky Block knows no mercy.
2. If something looks too good, it's bound to explode.
3. Never stand on the Lucky Block when opening.
4. If you know that Minecraft has an Ender Dragon, then never assume that it can't appear RANDOMLY ON YOUR FACE.

Will I play again? Of course. Because how can you resist a game where you can go from "I have everything" to "I have nothing" in a second?

And maybe next time I'll actually get something lucky...? 🎲🔥
