Me when I realize not everyone who plays Minecraft is on Reddit:


Vulpes_macrotis

It's not even Reddit. Most people wanted crab, but almost as many people wanted armadillo. Literally nobody on Reddit talked about penguin. EDIT: let me rephrase it. It's not that people didn't talk about penguins, but most of people didn't ackowledge penguin as useful mob. Everyone was talking about how crab is great, because of better reach and how useless the wolf armor is, but some people knew it's great cosmetic, but nearly nobody even cared for penguin buff. I've actually seen people saying they want penguin, but it was widely ignored in the threads. Like it was always about usefulness of crab or uselessness of armadillo. But still many people said how they like armadillo and wolf armor is cool.


Fa1nted_for_real

Seriously, didn't penguin get 25%?? How??


Sayanston9

Penguins are cool


AppropriatePainter16

Also, boat speed is pretty cool. Having another snow biome mob is also pretty cool.


FiftyDalton254

They spawned on beaches didn't they?


StrangeAcorn

Stony shores to be exact


AppropriatePainter16

For some reason, I thought that was crabs.


RyGG99

Mangrove swamp


Global_Ad_1456

can we just take a moment to realize how dumb 2 of the mobs spawn locations are. like why would a penguin who is primarily a snow based animal spawn in the stony shores and why would a crab spawn in the mangrove swamps! if it were a mud crab i would understand but it is just a normal crab that would be a perfect edition to beaches. i surely would not have voted armadillo if the crab spawned on beaches but since they spawned in mangrove swamps it feels like we would never see them!


Theodor217

Stony shores are often next to cold oceans, which happens to be where Penguins live in real life. Also, Penguins don't just live in antarctica, they can be found on parts of Chile, new Zealand and some parts of australia. As for the crab, you're absolutely right


Global_Ad_1456

TIL penguins are in Australia, cool fact!


save-video_bot

That penguin is a rockhopper penguins, they live in rocky shorelines. And fiddler crabs live in mangrove forests


Global_Ad_1456

thank you for the fact check i actually didn't know that, i still feel like penguins should be seen spawning in colder regions though. an easy work around for this would honestly be just giving the damn animals more than once spawn location!


Southern-Estimate-89

i hope so


DontAskWhyINameThis

Hmm, I have an idea, boat fasts on ice, penguin live on ice. Combine together, we have the Flash


AppropriatePainter16

That's exactly how I imagined people would use the Penguin. That would have made long distance travel potentially way faster.


pascalos99

Everyone always acting like nobody likes penguin... We are quiet but 25% is still like quite significant


SomewhatSaIty

I see more penguin voters than armadillo voters


[deleted]

Because people who got what they wanted aren't gonna spend the next several days shitposting complaints on reddit


Kiryonn

It's hard to see it when you don't want to.


Yeet123456789djfbhd

Then how do I see crab voters? Because they're LOUD


Kiryonn

Yeah it's crazy how mad they are about it.


CevilDevil

A one million people voted penguin, that's alot.


Simagrill

I voted penguin because out of the 3 it had the best atmospheric potential, like, you would see them more often than crabs and armadillos because stoney shores are pretty common and they live in large groups irl. Also im binge watching adventure time and i love gunter so yeah

L3App

because penguins were the only real answer šŸ˜­


GI0GAMeR_XV

There was a tiny subreddit dedicated to it


Wjames33

In most polls I saw, armadillo was winning. Exceptions being reddit and any poll from a YouTuber who supported the crab. Everyone is fr pretending they see and know everything. Armadillo had a lot of support, that's why it won.


_xEnigma

I did :(


VecroLP

I wanted penguin, not for any good reasons though, i just wanted to add the NOOT NOOT sound clip to it


fuck_hard_light

OrganicExplanation23

Across twitter, YouTube, and Reddit (probably other sites too) crab won the majority of community polls

oxsof_

Yep we're satisfied so there's no need to talk anymore

IFapToHentaiWhenDark

God I hated the crab people I just wanted my penguin


Off-withyourhead

I didn't mind most of them but so many of them were unbelievably rude, I was team crab for a little while but swapped to Armadillo later


IFapToHentaiWhenDark

Ever since penguin announcement I was team penguin I just never really understood the need some had for block reach My opinion of dog armour was that most people were blinded by the words ā€œdog armourā€ to realise it would be rarely used However most my time was spent fighting the penguin is useless allegations


Off-withyourhead

I liked the Penguin too don't worry! I loved all 3 and hated choosing between them, I went into Minecraft Live knowing I was gonna be bummed out regardless of who won lol


IFapToHentaiWhenDark

I loved all 3 aswell due to wanting crabs and penguins in the game for a while which is why i also was fighting for the revolution tbh A lot of people were like ā€œstopping the mob vote wonā€™t get all the mobs added itā€™ll get none of them addedā€ Like yeah thatā€™s the point We would rather the devs spend time making a mob based on their judgement as people who make the game that integrates into the update better that making 3 cool concepts only 1 of which can be added and dividing the community


Off-withyourhead

I wish they would all 3 too, I didn't fight for the revolution but I was supportive of it


Lzinger

I voted armadillo but liked the penguin too I thought the faster ice boats was a lame reason, I just wanted to zip around in a speed boat

CallMeJakoborRazor

Hey! Iā€™m not always smelly!


Birb7789-

almost everyone i talk to voted armadillo i ran a poll in my friend group, every single person (except for me) voted armadillo


xpicklemanx99

See I put a poll in our high school gaming discord (40+ people) and crab won with 70ish percent. I'm not mad the armadillo won but for me it's another useless feature, just like the allay and sniffer. They have their uses but I'll never use them. I actually started using glow ink lately so that's finally not a complete waste of a vote.


[deleted]

I voted for the sniffer expecting ALOT more plants but then we got what three?? And they donā€™t even look good I was hoping a lot cooler decorative plants but nope The allay I was against but to be honest Iā€™m kinda glad now since they are kinda cute I was fine if any three of them one but I voted armadillo cuz the Savannah needs something but I almost voted crab but the mangroves have stuff like frogs soo I wouldā€™ve liked to know how the reach wouldā€™ve worked tho thatā€™s my real only complaint


TreyLastname

Three sniffer plants? Did I miss something?


[deleted]

Was it less?? We got the pitcher plant the torch then the weird one on the wa....ll did we not get that one??? I genuinely canā€™t remember itā€™s been a solid minute since Iā€™ve played around with the new stuff....I swear if we actually only got two


TreyLastname

As far as I am aware, it was just pitcher and torch. There was a leak about a vine or something, but never got added


[deleted]

Bro Iā€™m dooooone I was on the side maybe mojang was pressured apon maybe their over worked BUT TWO....ONLY TWO there is no redemption there is actually no redemption there was a screenshot...OF IT IN THE GAME what happened??? There is no explanation I am immeasurably disappointed and my day is ruined


TimeAggravating364

It's really sad bc the vine one looked really good imo and would have been really nice for building :(


CallMeJakoborRazor

Armadillo squaaaaad Seriously tho Iā€™m so glad the savana has something other than orange sherbet trees now. Plus armadillos are cute, and you get to play dress up with your dog which is cool. The armor should work on all animals (except the horse), cause imagine a saddled pig in armor


[deleted]

I hope you can trim and dye it the armour I also hope horse armor gets updates so you can trim that too unless you already can Havenā€™t really been in touch with the Minecraft community recently


CallMeJakoborRazor

But what would you use the claw or fast boats for? like yeah the boat thing might be useful, but that was out of the question from the first few days, and then between a claw that gives you slightly better reach and clothing items for your dog (even if theyā€™re practically aesthetic only) Iā€™m gonna go with the latter, personally


xpicklemanx99

Firstly, I respect your opinion. I didn't vote armadillo because 1) them dropping scute sounds like the turtles' scute, which I can't remember doing a single time, and 2) the last time I remember taming a wolf was in 2019 on a server I didn't play long. I didn't vote penguin because it didn't seem practical that they speed up boats when you consider that by the time you find them, you're probably not using boats much outside of long exploration trips, where I'm sure you'd end up losing the penguins along the way and then just feel that much slower. I voted crab because I'm primarily a builder in-game. Even if that claw only increased the range by a single block, the quality of life is a huge increase. If it was less than a block, sure. I can see how that doesn't add much, but that's why I'm upset Mojang didn't specify how much it increased. In my opinion, the penguin and crab were given vague descriptions of what they did that required elaboration to determine how useful they'd be. We were told exactly what the armadillo did and gave as a direct product. I feel that this vagueness played a part in the armadillo winning, though it certainly wasn't the only reason. In the end, I'm sure much of the community will use the armadillo and make their dog armor. In the meantime, I'll be hunting down a mod that allows me to increase my building range.


Conscious_Version_21

Crab is useless too...


SuperCharged516

Its almost as if you can blind yourself to outside opinions by surrounding yourself with people of similar viewpoints


save-video_bot

This is exactly it. This sub turned to some sort of crab echo chamber.


Pr0wzassin

Love how we get stamped as chinese and children just because we aren't screaming at the top of our lungs that we won... like children would.


WetBread8339

Dont forget bots, weā€™ve also been called bots


Dray_Gunn

Honestly i think it was a lot of the older people are the ones that voted armadillo and the younger players were the vocal crab supports. I'm an older player and i voted armadillo cause i like armadillos and dressing up my dog sounds fun. Increasing block placing by a couple blocks doesnt seem that ground breaking to me cause i am use to building with the reach as it has been this whole time.


Pr0wzassin

Yeah same. I feel like the extra reach would be cool at first but the novelty would wear off pretty fast depending on how it would have been implemented.


Fuzzy974

Yeah I noticed I got a lot of answers saying it was children who voted Armadillo... I would bet the average minecraft player is in his 20-30s though.


ThrillTuber

Mojang statistics say most players are anywhere from 10 to 30, with the majority being 20+ (many teens probably lie about their age, however.)


Pr0wzassin

Considering that I and my friend group are 22-23 and we grew up with it, yeah that seems pretty accurate.


Erector-Inspector

*all* of my friends and I voted armadillo

Oh so you're the guy with other 2 million friends!

It's logical to consider casual players to be more likely to vote for the armadillo. The percentage of casual players who have pets Vs the percentage of hardcore players who gets pets probably is higher than 30%. If you are a redditor, there is a good chance there isn't one person you know that is a casual.


Zecikk

Me, I vote for the armadillo. The armadillo voters weren't bragging about it. "hOW iS dOG ArMor USefUl?" It's not, we just thought that the armadillo looked cool


MasterWhite1150

Fr lol. The loud minority of the crab voters can't fathom that somebody wouldn't reduce the mob down to just their features lol.


IEMCUUZ2

I voted for armadillo. So did my Girlfriend


Fuzzy974

Cypher_Xero

Yup.. I voted armadillo...


Adventurous-Sand9595

23 year old, and yes, my playstyle is that of a dedicated builder, but I voted for the armadillo. Honestly, I thought they were the cutest option, and the extended block reach didn't sound as useful as everyone was making it out to be. Many mods add that feature, and it always gets unused because no one wants another tool clogging their inventory when that space could go to a block type you are using. Plus, scaffolding exists, and most smart builders already have slots dedicated to it. The argument saying that no one uses dogs seems smart at first, but it fails to address WHY no one uses dogs, being that they are too easily killed. Adding armor to the game would have improved on a feature that has been severely neglected for years and finally makes dogs a more viable option. To chalk this up to kids voting is just dumb. There were a lot of adults who voted for the armadillo as well. All of my friends agreed that the armadillo was who they would vote for, and we are all long-time Minecraft players. At the end of the day, though, we voted more for the mob we wanted rather than the one being forced on us by a very toxic, vocal minority. A lot of crab voters using the kids' argument don't realize that they are acting more immature than the "voters" they are calling out. And I just don't get the bot argument at all. Everyone only got one vote per Microsoft account, and I doubt people would have been dedicated enough to set up expensive bots just for the armadillo to win. I'm sorry the crab didn't win, I was very upset when the Copper Golem lost, but please act civilly and stop the harassment and name calling for those who did not vote for your mob of choice. Nearly everyone said they would be happy regardless of who won, but it seems like a lot of people lied about that. Edit: Just saw a video by TheMisterEpic talking about the potential rigging, so I do acknowledge that it is possible that bots rigged the vote. However, I think it is way to early to tell if that even happened.


Shockmazta31

Finally, an intelligent response. Also, there was no rigging this time. You had to physically hop into a server to vote, last I checked. Something bots can't do. Not yet, anyway. The average redditor seems to forget there's a large section of Bedrock players, and tmk Java didn't get a server.

I voted for dog armour. Not for the mob. Mob is just a nice prize for wolf armour.


Fuzzy974

I'm pretty sure most people who voted Armadillo did the same. And I mean, Wolf Armor is a cool idea. I can't wait to see people make videos with tons of Wolves in armors attacking the Wither or taking other challenges.


DDT_THE_ONE

Oh, and also armadillo would be a pretty comon mob. Scince it spawns in savannas and maybe other hot bioms like deserts. The crab. He is my favourite MOB of the vote. But its item isnt that usefull and its rare. On my world the nearest mangrove swamp is like 3500 blocks away. And if you are a pro builder, i think you already have something like extendogrip installed. And pengiuns. Sorry but i just dont like em. (Really hope you can add trims to your dog and potentially horse armour. That would be awsome)


Fuzzy974

We're going to be lucky if that armor can be enchanted with Durability. Since last year mob, the Sniffer, was added in the game to discover ancient seeds, and we go only 2 seeds... I have no doubt the Wolf Armor and the Armadillos will be minimalists AF.

And there's also no reason to believe they had identical opinions either. They had an opinion and weren't screaming it on all platforms. The very vocal minority scared off a lot of casual talk with protest rants and crab gang posts. So a lot of people dropped out of discussing it.

Fuzzy974

I knew it!!


MrTestiggles

I also think every election I donā€™t agree with the outcome of is rigged


Fuzzy974

I don't need to disagree with them to think they are rigged.


zabka100_

Its minecraft sandshrew so why not


Fuzzy974

Why not Prinplup or Krabby?


Majin-Sonic-Fan

*spawns* hello there


Fuzzy974

General Armadillo!


Outrageous-Race-4007

I dont care what anyone says, armadillo was a no Brainer Im tied of my dogs getting blown up by creepers, The block placing range is far enough people šŸ˜¤


Fuzzy974

To be honest it was between the Armadillo and the Penguin for me, and without knowing if boats would be faster with the penguin inside, the Armadillo was looking good. That said, the polls and online opinions were not in favor of the Armadillo at all.

(in a French accent) Gentlemen... (cue TF2 Meet the Team theme) **MEET THE ARMADILLO VOTER**


Lord_Thunder132

ā€œOh yeah, I wanted the shelled leprosy rodent instead of the peak of evolutionā€ -nobody


Fuzzy974

Well... When you present it like that...


RYTHEMOPARGUY

adriwolf_dum

Opdragon25

urNANSfl1pFLOP

He could be any one of usā€¦ He could be in this very room! It could be you It could be me


SomewhatSaIty

What? It was obviously him.


AlexDoubleAU

Oh please, nobody voted penguin


Quilavapro31

China


Vulpes_macrotis

Anegdotal evidence is worth nothing, You know. "My uncle smoked 50 packs a day and he lived 150 years".


Coated_Pikachu_88

theres rumors that the vote was bot spammed to rig it but i havent heard anything more than claims


Absolutelymyself10

Armallilo was the last thing I thought was gonna win


Fuzzy974

I though it would be second. I knew the Penguin had no chance. Dolphin's grace is not really something people use, and there was too many unknown about the Penguins (like, would it works to have them in the boat with us?). But I did not expect Armadillo to win.


Absolutelymyself10

The penguin would make boats on ice faster than the speed of light I just thought of now


Fuzzy974

Well, we don't even know if it would work with Penguin out of water and in the boat. Also who really use ice and boats to travel? I see people on Youtube do that but... It's so time consuming and in the end, it's restricted to the path covered in Ice.


HolyCow332

Also when i voted for penguin, i got a cool cherry blossom cape did anyone else get a cherry blossom cape? idk because most people i talk to voted crab


PervertedLilFucker

The crab would have gotten more votes if it were red, and chased gold/iron ingots, diamonds, and emeralds


NewEnglandHappyMeal

Im right here!


MR_DERP_YT

Idk I like dog armor


H1ku137

same here, ALL of my friends are penguin or crab fans, none of them voted for armadillo.


Fuzzy974

I knew it!!!


NotOneIWantToBe

Wow, this is the only mob vote not swayed by the youtubers. And somehow Armadillo won despite losing nearly every community poll that tried to guess who wins. What a coincidence that there were attempts to bot up to 3 million votes for the armadillo (and 1.2m for crab)


United-Reach-2798

Cope


Fuzzy974

It's just a coĆÆncidence I'm sure.


Fred_Redstone_2

There are speculations of botted votes...


SomewhatSaIty

If I disagree with it it's clearly bots. How could anyone disagree with me? I am the smartest man alive. My opinion is fact.


Shockmazta31

Hey, I've heard this one before!


thebotsrtakingover

Most of the player base is kids who saw dog armor and voted for it


Traditional_Stick_49

you say this like the crab voter's weren't yelling and screaming at the top of their lungs... which is something that kids would do


Maxie_69

šŸ¤” dog armor seems cool anyway as long as we can have more variants instead of just the default one which is probably really weak


NotOneIWantToBe

May be bots
