wattles – Blackstone + Basalt Delta Biome! OVER 20 NEW BLOCKS! | Minecraft 1.16 Nether Update Snapshot 20w15a

Builders tiger kings elites house ago and it’s me your guy Watterson welcome to one of the biggest minecraft 1.16 update snapshots this morning April 8th 2020 the 20 W 15 a snapshot released and have I said yet it’s gigantic it’s really really big especially if you’re a

Builder today we’re gonna dive into the snapshot check out everything new if you enjoy this video if you enjoyed the breakdown do me a favor drop a like a subscribe and remember the notification about I post a video every single day lots of cool content now there are based

Off new series you know all of that cool stuff but with that we should not delay any longer because we have a lot to talk about today oh boy so when I say today snapshot is big I mean it’s actually gigantic and when I say is gigantic I

Mean it’s actually massive we have a lot of new things and some things that I would have honestly never expected to be added to minecraft today we have a brand new banner pattern our new campfire lots of new building blocks a brand new biome even some new music which is always

Amazing we also have some changes to other things and those changes or at least some of them are equally as massive but let’s actually switch things up and start with a pretty small change so I’ve been calling minecraft 1.16 the whole update and this snapshot confirms that official name even more because the

Hose uses have been expanded yet again as of the snapshot the hoe is now the official tool for breaking leaves kind of an interesting one I just figured the hand would be fine but I guess to the devs don’t agree with that one so if you’re breaking leaves use a hoe now

Because of certain things the devs have said in the past I thought this next one would actually never happen but oh boy I am super super glad that it actually did end up happening welcome to the brand-new nether basalt Delta biome take a look at this place it is insanely

Creepy it’s burnt up there’s a new block inside of it and tons and tons of basalt for all of you builders out there this is a May now this biome is actually the remnants of ancient volcano explosions according to the changelogs which is really really cool I always

Love when the devs put some lorem here in the basalt Delta biome you’ll find terrain generation that looks like this right here definitely burnt up and the remnants of an ancient explosion for sure it looks really really intense and it’ll definitely be hard to navigate inside of this biome you’ll also find a

Lot of magma cubes now the reason you don’t see them here is because I’m unpeaceful to prevent the gasps sounds from the nearby soul sand valley biome but yeah magma cubes spawn in this biome which means magma cube farming could and should actually be a thing theoretically

At least now currently I have night vision so you can see better so let’s go ahead and get rid of the night vision to check out the natural haze of this biome which is really really dark and creepy for sure the particle effects just everything about the basalt Delta biome

Is really really airy and honestly maybe my favorite new file I don’t know though maybe that’s just because it’s new but the biome is really really awesome looking lots of the fancy new block here is well black stone but I will talk a little bit more about that in a minute

Overall just another absolutely on point biome from the devs I really really love this place and I love that the devs actually decided to add another biome to the nether because I thought poor biomes was just not enough so five is a little better I’m super excited about this one

The twenty w15 a snapshot brings a brand new banner pattern to minecraft which is always cool to see the banner pattern is the brand new piggelin banner pattern now I could not find a crafting recipe for this banner pattern which makes me think though this thing is probably

Obtained through bartering I haven’t had the chance to test it but that would probably make a whole lot of sense grab some dye grab a banner grab the pattern itself going to a loom and boom you have yourself your very own piggelin banner it’s a piggelin knows I I love it

That is really cool and I feel like this is going to be super useful for banner art actually it alone sort of looks like a face I think this is a nice addition Sol torches got a whole lot easier to craft in the snap shot NASA the snapshot players can

Actually use soul sand as well as so soil to craft soul torches to crap the things this is the recipe that you’re looking for right here while we’re talking about soul fire take a look at the beautiful blue brand-new soul fire campfire this is going to be great for

Decorating now if you’re trying to grab something in survival this is the recipe that you’re looking for just like soul fire torches you can interchange soul Santa and soul soil here and any log variants will work now this thing is pretty much just a blue campfire there doesn’t seem to be any

Difference you can cook things at it it’s smoke signal it’s extended when it’s placed on hey it’s it’s yeah literally just a blue campfire but hey I mean I’m having with the blue campfire it’s really really cool okay personally I’d love to see something maybe wrong or

Different about food cooked at soul fire campfires because I mean soul fire that doesn’t sound like the safest fire in the world right it’s kind of weird sounding so I don’t know but as of right now yeah the food is just normal cooked food which is nice too overall this

Thing is probably going to be most useful for decoration so I think it’s finally time that we talk about this brand-new block right here this is a game changer when it comes to building or at least I think it’s going to be black stone is obtained in the brand-new

Basalt Delta bio now the stuff is mined with a pickaxe so pickaxe you mind it it’s sort of just like stone you know the basics with a efficiency five diamond pickaxe this is the mining speed and then if we step things up even more efficiency five nether right this is the

Mining speed right here from the looks of things this should be able to be insta mined with a Stu beacon efficiency five nether a pickaxe maybe even the diamond one not too sure though haven’t had the chance to test it but it’s really really cool looking this is what

The block itself looks like you can play this stuff in one direction sort of like cobblestone and stone blocks like that so if you’re a directioner I’m sorry it can only be placed in one direction but don’t worry there is a big thing that makes up for that lack of directional

Placement and those things are all of these things right here this is huge this is amazing when I saw that this was added in the snapshot I was really really excited I think this block or these blocks in general are going to be amazing in so so many

Bill pallets and honestly the dark tones oh I am a big big fan of these blocks already and I haven’t even got to mess with them with other blocks quite yet so let’s go ahead and take a look at all these new blocks right here is the black

Stone block just plain old black stone you can cut this stuff down into slabs walls and stairs or you can go ahead and take the stuff and polish it up into polished black stone polished black stone is clean looking it looks nice it might be useful for building you

Actually do have a pressure plate and a button option as well which is nice but you can then turn that polish black stone into polished black stone bricks which is where the big stuff comes out take a look at the Polish black stone bricks then polish black stone cracked

Bricks and then finally polished a black stone right there chiseled that actually reveals some stuff but more on that in a minute we have slab wall and stair variants as well four of these blocks which is really really big these are maybe the new big brick block look at that that’s

Gonna be really really cool to build with I am super excited about that it almost looks like there’s the green tones in there too which is really really cool now we will whoops my bad we will come back to that in a minute because we have another block to talk

About sort of related to black stone this stuff right here so take a look at it it’s got some gold in it it’s got the black stone block this block is called gilded black stone a gilded black stone is basically black stone with gold inside of it no your guy here has been

Doing some testing I’m a little confused about this block if you mine it with a normal pickaxe the block drops itself actually which is kind of weird so there we go normal big axe we got the block but if we mine the block with a fortune pickaxe will actually get gold nuggets

Yeah interesting now out of the tests that I’ve run I’ve received two gold nuggets and forth and forth and for than four I don’t know this block is really really interesting it behaves definitely differently I’m not too sure so I guess if you want the block normal pickaxe and

If you want gold from the thing a fortune pickaxe you don’t necessarily need to have fortune to find the stuff head over to the basalt Delta biome and start digging out the black stone maybe you’ll find some of this stuff but just a warning be ready to dig a lot because this block

Does not seem all that comment at all at least from when I’ve been flying around and looking around I haven’t seen a whole bunch of this stuff so yep good luck good luck now going back to the black stone blocks for a minute to get all of these variants you’ll need a

Stone cutter basically you can craft these in a crafting table but a some cutter is probably just going to be the easier way to go if you place blacks on the side of a stone cutter you have all of these blocks right here there’s lots of options there no scrolling though

They’re all right on screen but if you want the pressure plate in the button first you’ll need to craft polished black stone then you’ll need to slide back over to a crafting table place to polish black stone blocks just like that for a pressure plate one for a button

Just like the normal pressure plate some buttons so before we talk about the other new blocks and the other things in the snapshot one final thing about black stone take a look at the chiseled polished black stone this block right here you notice anything right in the middle

Two big ones snout oh boy I think bastions are finally coming soon and I have a pretty good feeling that black stone is going to be one of the big building blocks on these bastions so maybe soon maybe there’s no confirmation on it but I mean there’s a piggelin

Snout on this block there’s no way there’s no way in the world that it doesn’t end up being used on the bastion builds over all black stone is super super cool looking next up some big small dispenser changes dispensers got a whole lot more uses in the snapshot

Dispensers can now saddle up horses and pigs dispensers can now equip horse armor on horses dispensers can now put carpet on llamas dispensers can shear snow golems and mushrooms and dispensers can place chests on llamas donkeys and mules so the dispenser it’s even more useful

As of the 20 W 15 a snapshot all of the nether plants these things right here are now compostable back to the blocks even more new blocks have made their way into the game in the snapshot this thing right here cracked another bricks this thing right here chiseled nether bricks

And take a look at the skull on this block right here wither skeleton skull for sure that is really really cool I love this that’s that’s definitely evil now crafting these blocks is pretty predictable if you’re looking forward to cracked and other bricks go to a furnace

Play some nether bricks in it fuel those bricks give it some time and you’ll get cracked in other bricks just like making normal cracked stone bricks if you want the chiseled nether bricks slide over to a stone cutter with some nether bricks and chisel them inside of the stone

Cutter just like that you can’t use two slabs to craft these things as well but who crafts things like that anymore seriously yeah and you see over here crack nether bricks nice another big big change two walls in the snapshot the nether update is seriously leveling up

Walls completely and making them way way way more usable take a look at these walls right here they’re actually attached to the iron bars and the panes that is huge we could actually build buildings out of wall blocks for once which is really really awesome I think

This is going to be sweet look at that the panes on the walls that they connect which is really really cool again they do the same thing with the iron bars and apparently they do with sea pickles now I’m not too sure I’m basing everything off of the changelog

Here I guess they didn’t do this before and I guess this isn’t exactly it now unfortunately walls do not connect with fences still kinda bummed about that one but at the same time I guess it makes sense but does it also I mean fence gates connect the walls right so why not

Fences maybe next snapshot I don’t know I guess we’ll have to wait to find out 20 W 15a has another new block take a look at this block right here it’s beautiful it’s amazing it’s going to be crazy useful for building this is the quartz bricks block so get this block

Grab some quartz block slide into a stonecutter and crap the block just like that oh wow a white brick block I mean we got the black bricks now we got the white bricks now we can make good castle bad castle evil castle this is amazing the texture it’s great quartz is already

Beautiful course bricks are even more beautiful the javis have really went out of their way to spoil the builders in the snapshot I am so excited this makes me like ten times more excited for the nether update easy the final big thing that the 20 W 15 a snapshot brings is

New nether music there are three brand-new nether songs that you can find by going into the nether and exploring these songs are pretty nice sounding from what I’ve heard so far they’re definitely creepy there’s a new song that we’ll play in the nether waste pile a new song that we’ll play in the

Crimson forest biome and a new song that we’ll play in the soul sand Valley in basalt Delta biome now aside from those changes we have some nice accessibility additions in this snapshot lots and lots of bug fixes and some technical changes as well but that is actually going to be

Just about it for my twenty w15 a snapshot breakdown what do you think about the new black stone blocks definitely share your thoughts down in the comments below what blocks do you think black stone is going to work really well with I am honestly still shocked I’m sorry if the commentary has
