Welcome to Jacob_'s Minecraft Capture the Flag! We are one of the first Minecraft CTF servers and still add new features regularly.

This server is made for the original version of Minecraft (now called Classic) so it's completely free! Minecraft Classic is no longer updated, but a group of players and developers are now working on ClassiCube, an updated version with more features and better compatibility. To play on our server using ClassiCube, download the free client and search for Capture the Flag in the server list.

Solid. Another thing teams should practice on is timing.

e.g. in a 4 man team that's attacking where 2 are using Brute Force and 1 is Sneaking, the ideal play would be a sandwich: the 3 of them coordinate a push that forces the defenders to keep diverting their attention.

Let's take arena as an example: 2 defenders vs 3 attackers, 1 is Sneaking and 2 are using Brute Force. All trap mines have been defused. The best way to get the flag would be to have the Sneaker slowly go for the flag. When at least one defender focuses on that solo play, have the other attackers advance as much as possible. When the 2 defenders focus on that, have the Sneaker go forward as much as possible. Rinse and repeat until you're all near reaching distance from the flag. At that moment, choose one attacker to go for the flag. When the defenders finally commit to chasing one target, clean up. 

Easy to say but it takes good coordination and awareness to not flop the attack by blindly rushing at completely different times. Spreading out in the field as well as voice chat can optimize these kinds of attacks.

One situation you should always aim for during your attack: outnumber your opponents. The more you are, the more you can divert your opponents' attention. At the highest level, the win goes to whoever has the better attacks.

One situation you should never be in at the highest level: don't go solo against multiple opponents, except if it's to delay your opponent's push after your failed attack. The more people you're against, the more they can divert your attention :P

The rest comes with good practice. Hopefully everyone (including me ^-^) gets enough of it for this Winter Tourney!

PS: Speaking of I saw sthg about a team looking for a sub. I'm down, just don't have the perm from @XenonMan to reply on Discord. Halp!
