EPIC Upgrade: Transforming Your Minecraft World!

My subscribers sent in their Minecraft Builds so that myself and one other Pro Builder could upgrade them to the Max from the hundreds of submissions we’ve handpicked these 10 builds that will get the ultimate makeover each round will’ll be making the builds bigger and bigger and the upgrades more and more extreme

Got it okay round one thankfully gray and I had a pretty smooth ride with this first build which was the stump of the 10 selected builds gray and I each chose five that we would be taking the lead on one round’s going to be led by him and

The next round is going to be led by me after we had reshaped the log and I’d made a few more mushrooms I spent most of my energy adding to whatever Grayson put down this was his round after all I was just there to expand on his ideas we

Were able to crank it out in just a couple hours and the outcome was amazing one down n to go the next upgrade was this tavern that was sent in by Max this time it’s my turn to lead the build so here’s the plan gray is going to be starting with

The roof and working his way down to the foundation and I’ll be doing the opposite this way every part of the build gets edited twice and we won’t be stepping on each other’s toes I started off by giving a little bit more detail to the foundation once that was done I

Decided to add in a wooden deck to wrap around the base it’ll break up some of these flat wall sections meanwhile Grayson started to revamp the roof but when he did he discovered something unsettling shovel what look huh even numbers who would do such a thing I think I’m going to be sick

Okay I might have milk the drama there but having a single block Center makes things way easier thankfully with just a couple commands it was a pretty quick fix with that sorted Grayson focused on texturing the roof while I went back to the detailing I added an extra bit

Hanging off to the side and then I reworked a lot of the trim with a little bit more detailing on the outside I was ready to move on to the inside this tavern was built for a civilization event and it clientele are mainly Pirates and bars so there’s obviously

Going to be a bar and a bunch of tables and a stage for the BS to play the second level is mainly just rooms for rent so I just did a quick renovation to clean up some of the mess from all of our commands after a few more finishing touches looks like it’s

Done since these builds are mostly survival builds I tried the next round in hardcore just for fun but then this happened uh-oh oh no did you see that my frames dropped like crazy there stupid Chrome taking all my power oh okay well still this is your fault you should have

Warn me so I switched to oper GX the sponsor of today’s video with oper gx’s CPU and RAM limiting tools that’s not going to happen anymore and with its quick import tool I won’t lose any bookmarks browser history anything it doesn’t just solve performance problems

It adds a ton of new tools for easy access over here I’ve got chat GPT at the ready to help me brainstorm I can customize pretty much anything in the GX store there’s a ton of mods that change the entire browser sound effects wallpapers everything it’s even got this

Minecrafty background music and if I don’t like it one click and it’s gone personally I feel like I don’t spend enough time in Minecraft so this is a good way to make me feel at home when I’m not building what’s up it’s a free way to support the channel if you

Download it from my link in the description oper seeds me do a good job I can hire an editor and make videos faster cuz everything you’re seeing right now it’s all me baby huge thanks to oper GX for sponsoring today’s video use my link to download oper GX today

Back to building these first two were easy mode I had the exercise some self-restraint during these first two builds but with each New Creation that limit’s going to gradually Fade Away here this next round is a good example this build was senten by Steve wolf but you might notice it’s a little

Little look at the little guy so here’s the plan we’re going to make it bigger a lot bigger and we’re going to make the house on top a lot more complex to polish it off we’re going to add steampunk elements like gears and Machinery let’s get

Started I began by shaping the hole but Grayson well he had his own technical difficulties all right buddy n don’t worry about Mel just all right Deuces truth be told this part’s more of a oneman job anyway have you ever tried building a ship if you have I bet about

20 minutes in you realized oh crap this is a lot harder than I thought it was going to be don’t worry you’re not alone but to save time I will tell you the ultimate tip on how to build the perfect boat right here you ready practice sorry but there’s not really a

Cheat code for this unless yes oh yeah that’s nothing worth a shot making curved organic shapes is one of the hardest things in building it might look easy when it just materializes in a video like this but I’ve got a graveyard of abandoned ships from when I first

Started if you want to build like this do yourself a favor practice in Creative first you’re going to save yourself a lot of time and heartache all right I’m liking that shape with the hole finished gray could finally hop in and lenda where to go well guess I’m on my Own I think we need a little bit more up top and now the middle looks really empty all right perfect I love that house yeah I’m going to have to redo that whole freaking hole aren’t I Tomorrow get up what hey how long have you been there um I’m a figment of your imagination uhhuh don’t worry about it get up it’s time to build hold up a second if you’re on my head how do you sell dad breath with the both of us on board day

Two was a breeze I revamped the hole again while Grayson sprinkled in the fine details as things started to come together I started adding in more of the mechanical bits Grayson even added in this awesome telescope up front to really sell it hey shovel yeah is this telescope accurate you think maybe you

Could do some research what no it’s fine come on could you please just look into it after some quick texturing and some more details this is what it looks like this is a huge upskill but I love the way that turned out that really really looks straight out of a gibl film

I honestly thought that this was going to be my favorite upgrade of the bunch but the next one blows this house booat out of the water did you get that joke cuz it’s a boat and it’s in the water the next upgrade was this church that Grayson chose it was this really cute

Cathedral with a burst tree growing right through it gray took the lead on the structure and I was in charge of making a much larger version of the burst Tree I spent a really long time time smoothing and texturing it but I’m really happy with how it turned out it looks great when it’s all put together there’s a lot more to tell you about this build but if you want to see the full story you’re going to have to watch

Grayson’s video of this project over on his channel on to the next round when this submission landed in my inbox it almost got lost in the shuffle but then I read the story behind it this is golden mammon’s first ever Minecraft world and he lost it to a broken Xbox

This is just a recreation of one belt he lost and to me that hit home think back to your very first Minecraft world I remember mine like it was yesterday I was 13 I must have clocked a 100 hours exploring mining farming but my crowning Jewel was the very first house that I

Ever built it looked like this all right I’m just kidding to be honest it was a bit of a mess but it was mine that world’s where I fell in love with Minecraft the game that’s now my job and I freaking lost it years later

The old PC was long gone and no backups could be found I hadn’t visited it in ages but the loss still stung the world was just gone but for Mammon I have this chance a chance to take his Lost World and breathe new life into it so let’s

Get started looks like this build has two major components The Treehouse and a blacksmith below this upgrade is going to look a lot different from the original but I wanted to keep it soul I started out shaping and smoothing the main tree while Grayson established to

Style for the house we wanted it to have a thatched villager type look so Grayson went for a bamboo pallet unfortunately while he was plugging away on the houses I was facing some major roadblocks with the tree let me explain Minecraft Builds that are sculptures not structures are

Called Organics they’re the mark of a truly skilled Builder I’m okay at them but I’m still pretty much a rookie I know enough to see that something’s wrong but not really how to fix it I don’t know how some of these Builders do it it’s like the build speaks to them

After 4 hours of painstaking effort smoothing out the branches and baking in the texturing the tree was pretty much as good as I could get it it could always be better but I was happy with it until Grayson pasted in the treeh house ooh the tree’s a little small H 4 hours

Of work directly and promptly flushed right down the crapper I was going to have to redo everything what the what’s up you didn’t hear that it was like a note there it is again no why don’t don’t hear anything man I think you’ve been starting to make your brain go all

Fuzzy I mean I can take over if you need a break actually hold On I got it it wasn’t a complete loss we just needed to make some smaller versions of the houses and then add a few more branches and the large house didn’t need to be scrapped either it worked perfectly on the ground as the blacksmith then just a few more hours of

Connecting the houses with Bridges putting in the leaves and ooh yeah that’s too dark one sec I’ll get it after just a couple minutes of punching holes through the canopy it was finally done it’s looking incredible I honestly think that this is my favorite one so far

So uh Mojang if you ever need a couple of Treehouse builders for say I don’t know a jungle Village you know where to find us this build took me back man it reminds me of all those bills I made years ago on Instagram back when I first

Met Grayson a little story I’ve never really shared about gray he started out as a viewer just like you he commented on every video for months and before I knew it I was teaching him how to build that was almost 2 years ago and now just look at him he’s doing content creation

Fulltime he’s got his site set on YouTube so do yourself a favor go check out Grayson’s Channel hit that subscribe button trust me you’re going to want to say that you were part of this journey from the start and just like that the tower shaped up nicely that’s a really good

Upgrade it took a while but that’s not really a big deal the next build hardly took any time at all the next upgrade was sent in by person 321 a member on the public Bakery server and oh my gosh this is nuts dude look at this portal

This build’s already pretty good but it can be improved first of all this portal isn’t functional at all it’s way too big the max size for nether portal in vanilla Minecraft is 23x 23 blocks but it’s a square not a circle unfortunately the laws of Minecraft physics dictate

That every nether portal needs to be a square but I’ve got to work around I’m going to build a circular frame around it on both sides it’ll give the illusion that it’s circular hey nice that’s actually pretty convincing and now that that’s done gray and I can start work on

The fun part the Tory gate I’m not sure if it was the size shape or style but this build was a walk in the park you know that feeling you get when you’re really into something and the rest of the world just Falls away and then you

Look up at the clock and hours have passed that’s what was happening right here Grayson’s very focused on making things survival friendly so he normally doesn’t build on this type of scale he was a little out of his element here but he said that watching me was like

Watching a fish in water in a few short hours we had produced a pretty stellar looking Tory gate and this is probably my favorite portal that I’ve ever built look at this well maybe my second favorite but this one’s actually functional I think the real test is

Going to be if it actually lights up in Survival cuz these yeah they’re just blocks so I brought it over to a survival world unlit to test it but first we got to get up there should be simple Enough first try and here we go just light it up and aha one of the coolest functional portals out there I wonder if this is going to work with this mod that I saw well oh holy cow it does wa that’s cool man I wish I knew this mod existed

Before it’s called immersive portals mod look it up I felt a little bad for gracon though he had felt completely out of his wheelhouse and I didn’t even slow down to point him in the right direction make it up to him on the next build and I’ll let him take the

Lead gray might have been a little out of his element on the portal but this house was his bread and butter even though we started from scratch gray and I have built hundreds of houses just like this after a while doing these kinds of builds kind of just feels like

Second nature pretty quickly gray found his rhythm again and in just a few hours we had absolutely nailed it that wind set us up perfectly to tackle Grayson’s final project which was this Castle this project was a bit of a slow Bur burn but

Gray had a master plan so I was all in my task giving this building right here a facelift I knocked it out in just a few hours and by that time the rest of the castle had been finished by gray and our other friend vahan then pretty quickly I

Whipped up a bit of terrain and then I pasted in the castle pieces I added my finishing touches with a bridge and a bit of texture and then Grayson took over to wrap things up while I moved on to the next upgrade I saved the absolute

Best for last this pyramid was senten by Santi Sandy Santi we’re going to go with Sandy since you know pyramid Santi was inspired by my map building series to create their own fantasy world only this one’s built in survival they wanted to see what the potential of this build

Could be with it in my hands and fear not dear STI I shall give you a pyramid fit for gods don’t go overboard shovel survival friendly man why you got to take the fun out of everything all right I might not be able to go overboard but

This can still be epic and survival friendly in fantasy worlds immersivity is key so we need to look at the actual pyramids they’re remembered because of their size and the improbability of their existence they’re epic but this one is too small to be as imposing as

The real ones so I’m going to try and upscale it to give it a little bit of that effect there’s literally a pyramid generation command in world edit so I thought I could just bang this thing out in a day or two this was going to be an easy

Build yeah that didn’t happen turns out out it’s a lot harder to make a pyramid look cool and original while still making it look like a pyramid it’s basically just a big triangle I had to find something in the middle of all of that and that was probably the toughest

Thing to achieve first I tried this weird Triforce thingy M it’s not there yet guess I got to try harder and then I tried giving it a magical shattered top but it didn’t really look like a pyramid 3 days into the build and I felt like I had made

Absolutely zero progress it looked okay but this was the last upgrade it didn’t really give off that epic feel I think it’s too small too small you say feels a little underwhelming for the last one h no shovel survival friendly let’s go with survival possible no you’re a bad influence on him yeah

Fear not dear Sandy I shall give you a pyramid fit for gods this is the last build I’m doing level 10 even if it kills me I’m going to make that pyramid into its most epic version but it will probably be really hard to build in survival you’re cool with that right you

Know what forget I asked I’m not going to water it down this time the first pyramid was 75ish blocks tall but I’m going to Triple that number I’ll just add some more platforms and staircases to add a little bit of depth and since I spent 3 days on the

First pyramid I repurposed it to serve as a pretty ornate entrance it felt different this time my energy was starting to return I was still facing a lot of the technical issues I was having with the other one but this time the inspiration trumed the obstacles I was

Following my vision speaking of which I’ve got a moral dilemma here I want to add in a bunch of these luminescent blocks to make a glowing stained glass window but I hear that blocks like frog lights might be a little tough to acquire in survival not exactly

Practical but it is possible H sorry Sandy the next few days were a blur I originally thought that this pyramid was only going to take me a couple days tops but it ended up taking me an entire week but it was completely worth it I got the

Shaping and detailing all done and it was looking sweet only thing missing was some texturing I decided to make some patterns along the walls and then I moved on to renovating the interior this is just going to be pretty barebone stuff I’m going to be doing the

Floors walls and ceilings I want Sandy to be able to to adapt this themselves I like this so much I might even fit it into my adventure map speaking of which if you follow the map building series I always want your lower ideas in the comments pause the video here for some

Information on how this pyramid fits into the world to get started your idea might even show up in a future video it took me a full day to clean up the interior and deck it out but with the interior cleaned up I could step back and truly take it all In this is epic it might be a stretch to build this one in survival but saying I’ll send you both versions of this build and you can use them however you like huge thanks to everyone who sent in their builds for consideration we could not have done it without you make sure

You go watch Grayson’s video on his channel after this one thanks for watching
