The minecraft 26.4 snapshot cycle has recently started showcasing many new features like the new ice caves, freezing potions, and ice bricks! Those new ice brick blocks were something that I never really realized I needed, but they got me thinking about some of the other block families that I think deserve to be updated. There are many families of blocks that are bizarrely missing variants that other similar block families have had for years. Alternatively, there are also plenty of blocks that feel incomplete as they don’t have all the functionality you would expect them to have. So today I chose 10 block types that I feel need to be improved by either getting new variants or having new functionality. So join me as I try my best to improve Minecraft’s most forgotten blocks… Also I had to delay this video so if my comments about calcite become outdated I will cry.

You all are NOT allowed to make fun of me for what I said about snow bricks.
Us still not getting polished granite, diorite, or andesite walls is why I have beef with mojang😭
1:55 It might seem crazy what I’m about to say
My theory behind there being no Terrocotta building block expantion is that theres the mesa update going on behind the scenes and their preserving it for then
14:30 explosive arrows would be legendary
Hate to break it to you, this is outdated.
What I'd do for like, a real Redstone Lamp block
Heh guys, snow
Hot take: almost all blocks should NOT have stair and slab variants
Concrete should have slab but not stair variants
But quartz, basically marble before we had "discount marble" should have all variants, because its a "fancy" building material, but things like terracotta should be full block only, maybe slabs and walls
15:41 i think it would be cool as hell if you could dye leather armor with potion effects, not entirely sure how that would work or be balanced but it could give it a use beyond the part of the game where it’s the best you can get, because even then it’s not always used, most people i’ve seen skip straight to iron or gold
also why fireball and slime ball arent trowable?
0:37 block knowledge
“Every Koopa Track in Mario Kart” has lost its crown
The arms are so ugly on the armour stand i can't lie
One of my biggest asks is that we get a way to make oxidized copper lamps give off full light. I love using it in my builds but the lamps are so dim you cant use them
14:21 Prismarine shards?
What’s with the soyjak vaults?
17:18 – so there's alot more you cna do on bedrock, but yet all the java players claim it is garbage? Ohhhh the irony.
I think they should definitely complete the nether brick fences by including a fence gate and red nether brick stairs.
So… go play bedrock and you'll fix like 50% of these blocks
2:55 blue found dead in a taiga
The big video he’s working on is the Bowser Video???
I'd love calcite to get some expansion. its one of my favorite blocks since it released. very pretty white while having not too flat but not too harsh texturing
To add on to your point about colored lighting, the whole lighting definitely needs a rework to allow for colored lights. Stained glass and cushions don't count, those don't actually change the color of the light. I'm just saying if Doom 64 could have colored lights in 1996, Minecraft has no excuse anymore.
17:46 what about using shears on placed armor stands
18:52 hey did you guys see that
1:57 saved yourself from being immediately out of date by covering something else lmao
Edit: nevermind you forgot the copper bulb exists during the redstone lamp portion
This has got to be a world record for how fast one has gotten outdated
as a fix for the redstone lamps they should add a new redstone component that resets the redstone strength (like from a low level 14-1 or even 0) back to full strength, so they don't have to copy a whole bunch of differently colored lights just so they can dim a little. But for now we can only dream🐦🔥
18:51 AHHHHHHHHH DID YOU SEE THAT
And thus the cycle of Odyssey Central videos being outdated before they release continues
10:46 what is the name for the soyjak texture pack you are using? I need it badly
WE GOTTA BRING
SPONGEBOBCALCITE BACKKKKKKKKKKFinally someone else is bringing up the wall inconsistencies.
It's been one of my biggest nitpicks with the game as a builder, and it just doesn't make sense
10:34 why are they like that
What I'm hearing is that we need a stone/hard blocks update
U sound like ls mark
0:22 Just like him…….
Insert cool bowser gif here
