sharp thorn
1: Decrease the VIP level for playing the mode.
I feel like the VIP level 3 is sort of a massive wall in making the gamemode more popular. I'm lucky enough to have VIP level 3, but lobbies often either take the full timer to fill, or don't fill up at all. I feel that reducing the VIP level down to 1 would make the gamemode more popular.
2: Tridents
I've suggested this before on the website but I think it's a little more public here. Adding tridents like riptide will create some extra funny and chaotic moments. Just imagine flying at someone with riptide and using a full stack of explosive eggs on them. Or potentially, throwing a Challelling trident at some TNT, which then sets it off to hit someone off the selected map. Of couse there would be drawbacks to the Riptide enchant, in that it's only useable on maps that include water. I suggest adding riptide that works in any environment (not just in water), but with a 15 second cooldown maybe.
3: More combinable items
By combinable, I mean items that can be paired together to create some awesome new combat methods. There are some combinable items now, like the throwable TNT to launch yourself up and then using a hoarde of explosive eggs. But I feel like there should be more items which can be paired together, just so the gamemode becomes more strategic and chaotic at the same time.
I hope these suggestions come to reality, Thanks!
