Changelog

All updates, new features, and fixes — newest first.

Practice update — right-click duels, new menus & LMS Sumo

A big practice update is live! Dueling is a lot quicker now, menus work much better on Bedrock, and there are new events and arena types to play.

⚔️ Dueling made easy

  • Right-click to duel — Right-click someone in the lobby, pick a kit and the number of rounds, and the request is sent. No commands needed. Party leaders get an Invite button instead.
  • Custom kit duels — Duel someone with your own custom kit using /ckd <player>.

📱 New menus (great for Bedrock)

  • Graphical menus — Turn on Graphical menus in /settings to get clean button menus instead of inventories for settings, duels, kits and rounds. You can even type a player's name to duel them. On by default for Bedrock players.
  • Invite popups — Get a popup with Accept and Decline when someone invites you to a duel or party. Press Esc to close it, and you can still accept from chat.
  • Clearer settings — Every option in /settings now shows ON or OFF right on the button.
  • Spawn items stay put — Your lobby items can no longer be dropped or moved by accident.

🏆 Events & gamemodes

  • LMS Sumo — A new hosted event: the last player standing on the sumo platform wins.
  • Spleef arenas — The snow layers crack and break away during the fight, faster as fewer players are left.
  • KOTH — When you die you spectate for 5 seconds, then respawn at your team's spawn with team-colored armor, a glow on your teammates and 5 seconds of spawn protection.
  • Juggernaut — Eliminated players now spectate, and the juggernaut glows so everyone can spot them.
  • BedWars & Bridges — A chat message when a bed is destroyed, and goal announcements in Bridges.
  • Party fights — Party leaders can end a party fight with /party cancel without disbanding the party, and party fights now pick an arena that fits your group size.
  • Killstreaks per kit — Your current and best killstreak are now tracked for every kit.

🛠️ Bug fixes

  • Fixed players sometimes staying invincible after a fight started.
  • Fixed some kits skipping the countdown before the fight.
  • Fixed the countdown cage floor missing in the first round.
  • Fixed arenas not resetting when a best-of match ended between rounds.
  • Fixed party members being able to open the kit editor.
  • Fixed spectators seeing the wrong team colors on nametags.
  • Fixed spectators of brackets and sumo leaving the arena while waiting.
  • Fixed the FFA reset timer in chat not matching the scoreboard.
  • Fixed scoreboard and tab values showing blank when no event or fight is running.
  • Fixed the bed status icons on the scoreboard.

🚀 Performance & stability

  • Leaderboards load much faster, including the 30-day ones.
  • Less lag when FFA arenas reset.
  • Fights and replays are no longer lost when the server restarts.
  • Fixed stats not saving in some cases after kits were changed.

Weekly Community Events!

We're excited to announce a new initiative for the Avesclub community: weekly weekend events!

From now on, we'll be aiming to host regular events on the weekends. Events can range from short competitions lasting just a few hours to larger events that run for up to 7 days.

Every event will feature its own unique gameplay, objectives, and prizes. We're starting with our new Survival Contracts event, but we have many more ideas planned for the future.

  • Weekend events ranging from a few hours to a maximum of 7 days
  • Prizes for every event winner
  • Possible rewards include free Minecraft servers, free HugoSMP Premium, free - DonutSMP Premium, and more
  • All upcoming events will be announced on Discord and listed on our website
  • Community event suggestions are welcome

Have a great event idea?

Send a DM to RobinAves on Discord with your concept. Whether it's PvP, Survival, Parkour, Building, or something completely unique, we'd love to hear your suggestions.

📅 Event Calendar: https://avesclub.net/server-events/

💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/x4sdkE7Dnb

We can't wait to see what ideas the community comes up with and look forward to hosting many exciting events together! 🚀

Custom practice bots (beta)

We built our own practice bot system from scratch. It supports multiple kits and practice modes so you can train solo when nobody else is online.

  • Works with several kits and practice setups
  • Built for CPvP, Sword, Mace, and more
  • Still in testing — expect tweaks and improvements as we gather feedback

New kits & gamemodes — Cave, Boxing, MLG Rush

A major content update landed on the PvP side of the server.

  • New kits added to the rotation
  • Cave Fight — netherite cave PvP with crystals, pots, and cobwebs
  • Boxing — classic boxing duels on the boxing map
  • MLG Rush — bridge rush / MLG practice as its own gamemode

Moved to a dedicated server

We migrated to a new host with a dedicated machine. Performance improved noticeably and we gained much more freedom to run heavier gamemodes, more players, and bigger events without hitting the old limits.

Legendary 7-day Cookie Collector event

Loxy hosted the Cookie Collector — a week-long SMP-style event where players teamed up and competed to collect as many cookies as possible.

  • Teams played together in a shared world for 7 days
  • The winning team's total cookie count was rewarded as in-game money on HugoSMP
  • One of our biggest community events to date

BedWars is live

We added BedWars as a full gamemode on the server. Queue up with friends (or strangers), defend your bed, and rush the other teams — classic BedWars, now on AvesClub.

  • Play with friends or fill a match with other players
  • Destroy enemy beds and eliminate teams to win
  • Available on Java and Bedrock

Loxy's first streamed SMP event

Loxy hosted his first SMP on the server and streamed it live. It only ran for a few weeks, but the community loved it — lots of players showed up and it became one of those memorable early AvesClub moments.

Welcome to avesclub.net

We finally got our first domain: avesclub.net. Huge thanks to Egapeater for sponsoring it — the server finally had a proper home on the web that players could remember and share.

Bedrock support added

Bedrock players could join the same server as Java for the first time. Cross-platform play was working — a big step toward making the server accessible to everyone, not just Java Edition.

First playable build — simple duels

We got something working on the server for the first time: basic duels. Nothing fancy yet — no big kit list or custom maps — but players could actually fight each other. A small milestone that proved the idea was worth pursuing.

Project kickoff — the server is born

Loxy and Robin started building what would eventually become AvesClub. At this point it was still early days — no official name yet, just two people setting up a Minecraft server and figuring things out.
