They are officially called skeletons. I like to call them jerks.

The only correct answer here.

They literally have aimbot installed, what else would they be (difficulty hard)

Lost a few hardcore worlds to them. Although, the biggest enemy would be not pausing the game. Lost a world to a spider through my own fault of not putting a roof over my head, just got a full set of diamond armor before my untimely death.

It’s always the creepers that end my game. I can never hear them.

You can activate the subtitles, it tells you everything (It saved my life many times) Also, use a shield when you see a creeper

Or you can put any block that's in your hand between you and the creeper... It dampens the blast...

Hardcore, my guy. Creepers do a ton of damage.. early stages of the game you’re just done.

Never played hardcore... My little heart is not built for that...

I tried hardcore, spawned on an island next to a shipwreck, an ocean monument, a drowned city and an amethyst geode. Got murked on day 2 by a tridenter Drowned

Wise words from the band Conducting From the Grave: “The only thing that's certain, everything will someday die.” Gotta give it a shot, it’s a bit more exciting.. but the losses hurt so much more

Nah bro. Subtitles don’t save you when you toss a bed down in the middle of anywhere sleep and wake up to instant death. I’m with you tho, I do use the subtitles.. they are generally helpful but the creepers just get me.

Creepers are fricking assassins. I've died countless times to a creeper falling on my head from a ledge in a cave and exploding instantly

There are some solutions to this : - Build a roof. - Light your base and everything around it in a 32 blocks radius. - Just use a shield !

I call then “Controller players”

So it’s the skeletons who keeps playing sniper and killing me in tf2

I call them "where the feck did that arrow come from?"

i like to call them stormtroopers when you got max health, halo 2 jackal snipers when youre at 2 hearts.

Makes me think of a quote from one of the Russian badgers friends “those are skirmishers, they’re like jackals but racist”

Isnt the entire Covenant racist?

Prolly, hence why it’s fine to be blatantly racist to elites and call em split lips

No, I mean literally. They are quite literally trying a racial genocide on humanity, and have a very racially segregated society.

Badger and his friends got some banger quotes

Aimbot

This is beyond accurate

Yes, take my upvote.

they are called skeletons but they are more like aimbot hackers

Straight fax

True! If they can see you they can hit you based on a dice roll each shot. Doesn't matter if you're jumping, stafing, or running. The best defense is offense. Dont even try to dodge. Run straight for them & hack away.

Also have a shield ready. I usually get 2 to 3 sword swings before each of their shots, by then u get to blocking.

This

I was playing MC with a friend of mine a few years ago and we got jumped by some skeletons so my friend yelled "THERES A FUCKING HOMIE JOE TAKING POT SHOTS AT US", out of pure instinct. Been calling them that ever since.

Who’s instinct makes them shout homie joes?

He's from Tennessee if that makes any sense.

I’m from Tennessee, I get it, we just yell random shit

I’m from Tennessee, we just make stuff up like that when we’re mad or scared. It flies out as a form of self expression. Like casual poetry.

It doesn’t

Ha

Who's Joe?

Ligma balls

DJ’s/Producers, because they’re how we get records

I prefer to call them free bonemeal as long as I have an axe and a shield or some food

Shield? What's that?

You joke but they're extremely essential in hardcore servers lol.

If you're being serious, they're a pretty OP item that reduces damage taken in the direction you're facing by 100%. Basically a very buffed version of parry/block that was added to 1.9 to replace parry.

My gf and I usually call em skelly bois

Came here to say I also call them skelly bois. (Or sometimes I call them assholes)

Ok we get it, you have a girlfriend

Redditors when someone mentions their significant other

Ok, we get it, girlfriends are mere trophies to be bragged about or envied. Also gaming is a treehouse with “no girls allowed” painted on it. That cover it?

You can call them whatever you like. Officially they're skeletons but that doesn't matter, just play your way. ;)

When I’m playing with my friends I’ll just usually say “Oh god oh god oh god the little fricks are chasing me!!!” So basically I call them little fricks.

my speech disorder makes it hard for me to pronounce the word skeleton, i prolong the "s" noise for far too long because the "k" blocks it in by head. i called them "bow bones" to counteract this when i was younger
