I sure did claw through some content. Sorry, that joke was made in a pinch. Mojang just announced the new crab Minecraft mob for the Minecraft Live 2023 Mob Vote! So... I ruined it. Will you vote for the crab, the armadillo, or the penguin?

This crab will go up against other mobs in the Minecraft 1.21 mob vote, which may include a Minecraft penguin, or a Minecraft armadillo. Yes, this is based off of supposed 2023 mob vote leaks.
The best part of the mob vote is we finally get a better upload schedule.
bro who the hell are you?? why are you everywhere?
Tick guy
BRO UPLOAD VIDS WHERE R U?
THE OFFICAL SEED ACCOUNT???

I love that you’re probably going to do this for every single mob vote
Me to
At this point I feel like it will be every mob vote
this answer has no purpose other than to take up space (this as in mine)
Pretty sure it’s every mob vote at this point
Why not
fun fact, the sheering of claws is actualy something that happens irl, some crab species are harvested of claws then released to regrow them
I heard something about crabs missing 1 or 2 claws will die more often. Not sure though, feel free to correct.
@@squareguy5353I mean yeah they have less defense
@@squareguy5353when crabs only have 1 claw removed they are still aggressive and will actively fight and lose against other animals. When both claws are removed they are forced to hide until both are grown back.
Rofl
@@squareguy5353 To quote Patrick: "MAKES SENSE TO ME"
The idea behind getting crab claws is that crabs shed the old big claw because it gets infected or damaged during a fight. they break it off and a new one grows back. Its probably be like an egg laying mechanic of chickens where they drop it time to time.
I would love to see a crab fight lol 🤣
Or like the turtle shell, you have to breed and take care of them
Or you'll have to take a bunch of them intro the pit to make them CRAB FIGHT! YEEEEEEEEEAH! And then they'll drop the claws. Ok no, it's Mojang so they wont...
@@darklion98 has mojang ever elaborated on why they won’t do things like that?
After a certain amount of attacks it sheds the claw
Should've made it so the crab death message changes the players name to Amelia Earhart 😊
No way is that luxintrus from the hit smp content smp
when the person with an anchor as a weapon dies to a silly goober who has schizophrenia
Didn’t expect an Amelia Earhart being consumed by crabs joke in a Minecraft comment section, but here we are
hi Lux :)
@@cadettrev762Really? Like really? You don’t think this joke was at all predictable?
You should call the potion "Potion of evolution" because it simply evolves everything it touches into what it rightfully will become.
Thats what carcinization means
Rofl
Yes but what will the crabs evolve to?
After seeing this, anything that Mojang does with the crab (if voted) will inevitably be a disappointment in comparison.
I fucking hate how thats accurate
If they added all three mobs every year without a vote but rather just instantly unannounced, there would be problems like... like... like... yeah no they could've so easily made this game better by just releasing all three mobs every year (which is generous to do considering they have a whole team on the job compared to this chad who will most likely add all of the mobs in 3 days)...
We all need to expose how an extended reach will literally be useless, please, convince your friends to vote for the armadillo, we can't let them take our chance to use equipment on dogs
It will be much better. This crab isnt realistic at all and he had no idea what to do so he just added random stuff.
@@Kattenbdid you read the title of the video
make them spawn with different claw sizes, increasing the damage and making crabs with bigger claws discriminate crabs with smaller claws.
Crab racism
Ah, yes... *S E G R E G A T I O N*
Ah yes, crabism
In real life there are species of crabs which fight for females and the males with the biggest claws win these fights and get to mate with the females.
@@dibershai6009 and I thought humans are the first species to make love
i just realized that according to their logic, they can't add crabs because according to mojang, if they're passive or neutral, it will encourage kids to touch them and get hurt, and if they're hostile, kids are going to actively kill crabs.
Dolphins also break this rule, it’s a moronic rule. If you go up to a wild dolphin, there’s a very good chance you will be raped and killed.
Cows, pigs and sheeps
imagine if you could use the crab claw to make a grapple hook
That would be awesome
GENIUS
:0 oh ma yess
Heh... Crabbling hook I'm sorry-
@@Vortical__ The Grappling Claw could be made from a crab claw and either two chains or a lead.
my guess for how you get claws without killing the crab is that the crab naturally removes its own claw and grows a new one like they occasionally do in real life
Like scutes!
I imagine the crab will either drop it's claw when it grows up, ala scutes with turtles, or the extra reach will be an AOE type thing, like dolphin's grace
If it's the second one it's gonna be so useless lmao
I'm hoping it'll be a drop you hold in your off hand and can also be used to reach mobs or players in combat
Its confirmed you'll get their claws as an item
ROFL
Regarding crab claws, they actually autotomize the claw if it felt threatened, or if the claw is a burden to them through either it is too damaged, or was trapped because of it.
4:25 The powers of 2 are the coder's best friend, after all!
2:48 crabs can drop their claws when stressed so maybe sneaking up on them or having a hostile mob sound nearby could make them drop a claw
Crabs doesn't drop their claws when threatened by predators, they're showing defensive position with their claws. They will only drop it when they got injured on their claws
I love how earlier today a person I know was like "they should add a potion of carcinization" and then you do in your video. Amazing coincidence, and good work on the mod, that was insanely fast!
nice mob mod
Cant wait to see what mobs are in the mob vote other then the crab and to see what you will do with them
others are seagull and jellyfish..if the leaker was right. maybe..idk
I'm probably just voting for the crab
Duck maybe
@@GI1Tch1 mojang themself leaked it, it is seagull and jellyfish i believe
@@rdaug3110 they showed the videos accidentally i think
I don't get why Mojang doesn't just add all those mobs, like seriously they're more than capable.
the stupid reason is cause they have to worry about the community's liking the mob so if one is hated then that sucks but if they make us vote its on us
it's marketing
The mob vote is for community engagement
Option 1 those are extra mobs that wouldn't be added to the game otherwise (crossover mobs like the glowing squid or the allay) Option 2 we wouldn't be aware of the mobs and would complain about mob bloating (if the mob vote started earlier the stray, husk, and polar bear would have been a mob vote for sure) Either way it would have a negative impact on the game because these mobs are not designed to be all added at once
It's because they want to include the community. It's good marketing to say "YOU can vote for the mob that gets added". It's just something to get the community hyped about.
HOW DO YOU MAKE THESE SO QUICK DO YOU HAVE LEAKS?!!? Anyways love the videos keep it up 😄
Magic
It's because their mobs are so simple to add that modders can do it in less than a day and include more features.
@@mnbvcxz9385 I don't think you understand just how long coding takes
@@ElectroTigerI don't think you understand how little effort Microsoft/Mojang puts into their game
@@mnbvcxz9385 6 months later and the point still flies right over your head every time, doesn't it
Not gonna lie, would love it if Eight makes a full-on tutorial series on how to mod but that would take like a year to finish lol
I'm glad you eventually added the crab rave. Crabs dancing is just nice to see :)
Eight back again, making the mob vote more enjoyable
I remember when he did the allay, it looked so weird. I wonder how weird this will be in the future
Oh wow, so fast! Eight would never fail to destroy the next update lol
If you drink a potion of Carcinization will you just become a crab yourself🦀🦀🦀
i mean crabs sometimes shed their shells to get bigger, so maybe the player can just find discarded claws laying around crabs. maybe when you breed two crabs abd make a baby crab, the baby crab sheds its claw when it turns into an adult.
jesus christ this dude is a faster coder than the combined effort of the entire team of mojang
Kingbdogs, one of the developers of Minecraft, made a great response for people like you who don’t know what it’s like to design a game. In his statement when people asked him why they can’t add all 3 mobs is because they’d have less in the core update because time is a limited resource. Also people forget that bedrock edition exists when they make this statement, theres a reason all of these “i made the update before mojang” videos take place on java edition. Bedrock is coded in c++ so they have to rewrite the code in that language and have to make sure that every platform of minecraft, even the mobile version, can run smoothly without any problems in the update. The developers work long shifts to make sure that the update comes out for a reason.
@@mainframe1608 i know that its really freaken hard to code a game. but this dude made an amazing looking mob within a day of it being announced. I just wish that mojang did more with its game. btw mobile sucks ass
@@helow8714you want them to add the mob before the vote even happens?
The crab randomly stealing items is a fun idea. They should make it so that killing the crab is not an option if you want the item back so you have to trade another item with it or something, maybe even obtaining their claw through that process
The commitment of this man is admirable
The sword feature is what amazes me the most. 10/10
I love that this is my first time seeing the first option for the mob vote
Ah, the Minecraft mob vote! The only time of the year where we can approximate your upload schedule!
This is actually great, you should make this a mod so that we can get the armadillo or penguin as well
AND ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO FROM Eightsidedsquare!! Love the videos, please never stop posting!
the crab rave part was awesome!
YEAH! I thought maybe you weren't doing it this year, I'm glad I was wrong. You've inspired me as well - I'm also taking a shot at coding these in each day. WAIT we both made basically the same joke with the claw!!! I made you have to swap it with an artificial metal claw. That's really funny.
bro uploads every 2487 months and uploads faster than sonic can run when new mob vote mobs are introduced
I hope the dance will be an actual feature
i was expecting this from you, but its a really nice mod! keep it up
The fact he probably did this in a single night
and mojangcrasoft a AAA studio with hundreds of staff members take a whole year to add this shit
ngl your rendition of the crab looks really good
As a paleontology lover the potion of carcinization got me there
the fact that this guy made one of the mobs from the mob vote in a matter of a day makes me wonder how much work and effort mojang actually put in making an update
The update isn’t only the mob, there are many other things in the update. They also have to make sure it would work in bedrock edition, which is probably the longest part as they have to rewrite the code of the entire update because bedrock uses c++ and its on many platforms which they need to make sure the update works ok on without lag like mobile devices. So anyone saying that mojang is “lazy” doesn’t know anything about game design.
@@mainframe1608technically the initial comment is correct. Mojang itself doesn't want to hire more developers to work on the game.
With crabs we can finally display every employee of the krusty krab
Could've just made the crab shed the oversized claw and the other claw will grow to replace it after several minutes.
Now make one for the armadillo. Make him an arms dealer.
Bro really spent the whole day making a Minecraft crab.
"another mob that has a 33% chance of existing!" - eight sided square
They won’t let you swear but are planning on letting you brutally rip of a crab’s claw to use to extend your reach 😎
This year I’m not spoiling myself about the mob vote, I want to discover each option through your videos
I love and missed this type of video. Sadly, it'll be gone again after the third mob has its video done, just like last time... :[
Hi, how did you make the extra reach work? did you use external mods?
i think you should of made the crabs ruthlessly kill eachother if any song gets played in their vicinity
6:06 this is actually realistic as a lot of animals either evolved from or into crabs (like a lot a lot), or so I heard…
I was gonna save that Crabs do actually just drop their claws. They are capable of self amputation. But the grabby extendo arm thing is really hilarious.
i think crabs being able to pick up and use tools would be awesome actually kinda like an enderman but just for everything
Missed opportunity too make a crab name Hello I like money into a mr krabs 😢
This is perfect. You didn't make it worse... you made it BETTER.
No
@@Kattenb Can't take a joke I guess...
@@lasercraft32 its just not better.
Ah yes crabs, the final form of evolution.
We back at it again with this mob vote
2 videos in less than 2 months? This Halloween is going great!
The double upload lets gooo 😭🙏
If the crab wins the mob vote its sure gonna be a crab rave alright
well done, just a little fact about nature that I learned 2 minutes ago, that when crabs are in danger, they cut off their claws but they grow back.
Something that would make this mob a W is if you can use a shell remover to remove the shell making it weaker but then dying the turtle’s scute to re add a shell with ANY color!
Can’t wait to see you ruin the armadillo!
He added the final form of evolution
This is actually amazing
he started with a floating crab. then he suggested this dietetic building archetype design that cleverly builds upon the very vague original idea. I want this one. like not whatever mojang has planed, but THIS one.
Perfect. Now we have to see what else turns up.
If I remeber correctly crabs shed their shells so that's probably how you would get a claw
Finally thank you for making more videos
bro you made this in like 24 hrs nice job
You must do this for the next mob vote.
2 Eight videos in less than 3 days this is insane.
0:25 god i wonder what's gonna happen at the end Edit: Yep, knew it. Would've been funnier if it didn't happen.
his on it again, nice grind eight!
I love that every Minecraft live you pop up on my feed
The reach distance improvement could be done through enchanting rather than crafting
Oh boy, i cant wait for the ruined armadillos
Legend says the crab is still going
glad the crab rave is in, it's a good one
You get crab claws like that one gif of a crab angrily tearing off his claw and throwing it on the ground. I don't care if crab rave is overdone, i think every mon should have a dance animation. Zombies can do Thriller, Skeletons can do Spooky Scary Skeletons, cats can do catJAM, etc.
How did I know that you would add the crab rave at the end hmmm🤔
I can't wait to see the bad armadillo!
the second mob hasn’t even been announced yet and someone already coded the first one, wow
This video would be PERFECT if you made a Spy Scrab that spawns with the iron sword
Been waiting for the day for a while
that's the thing that bug me about mojang... they are a company and their updates bearly add stuff in.... like the sniffer didn't let us make ancient blocks from it's flowers, just a few flowers you can make. it's not the crab+water biome remake it's just ONE mob
Didn't expect that biology class at the end
I love the way the crab dances
This year's mob vote is gonna be hard... All the mobs actually look good, who are you voting for? | \/
Crab, the penguin has no hope and I’m never voting armadillo
And here is eightsidedsquare making mojang employees sad
Love the eyes of the crabs it reminds me of OG minecraft noob
if the crab ends up winning we still dont know if we voted for the right mob until i see a crab rave
This is the best version of the Crab so far!
you upload this right when I'm bout to go to school
The legend is back🎉🎉🎉
The crab could also be useful for combat to reach how far
the fact that i will probably take 6 years for mojang to make a worse version of this is a bit sad
