In Bed Wars, players spawn on an island and collect resources to obtain items such as swords, blocks, tools, and other special items. Players also have a bed that they must protect, as the bed breaking results in players no longer being able to respawn. When all players of a team are killed without beds, the team will be eliminated. The last team standing wins. This article will teach strategies that can be used in order to secure victory!

Part 1 Part 1 of 3:Joining Bed Wars

1
Join a server. In order to play Bed Wars, you will need to join a server. One of the most common bedwars servers for java edition is Hypixel. After you load up Minecraft, click on "Multiplayer", and then click "Direct Connect". Then you will need to type in "mc.hypixel.net".[1]
- For Bedrock Edition, "The Hive" is a provided server that has bedwars game in it, but "Nether Games" is a better server, to play in The Hive, press "Servers" tab, then scroll to find The Hive. To play Nether Games, press "Add Server" at the most bottom of the server tab. then enter play.nethergames.org.(Port:19132) Enter the server, click with the compass then click bedwars.
2
Right-click with the compass once you join the server. This will open the game navigator, then click on the bed to go to the Bed Wars lobby.[2]
3
Find one of the NPCs that will allow you to join a game. You can join Solo, Doubles, 3v3v3v3, or 4v4v4v4, based on how many teammates or opponents you want. Other versions such as Dream Modes (which rotate weekly based on a set schedule) or 4v4s also exist.[3]
4
Wait in a lobby while the other players join. You can engage in friendly conversation with other players in the lobby by pressing T to enter the chat. You may make a new friend, as well as a potential teammate on your team.
- If you're a beginner, join 4v4, where you play with 3 teammates and are against a single team. If you play in teams at the start, you can boost your stats which will help you in later games.

Part 2 Part 2 of 3:Playing Bed Wars

1
Learn how to speed bridge. Speed bridging is a method of bridging where you sneak (also known as 'crouching' or 'shifting') when at the edge of the block, then unshift when placing a block. You can bridge while sneaking the entire time, but it's a lot more effective to speed bridge. It also gets you to other islands before players can knock you off!
2
Learn the nicknames of certain upgrades, bed defense styles, game techniques, and blocks. The most common slang terms are:
- Def - Defense/Defend
- Pot - Drink potions
- Invis - Invisibility/Invisible player attacking
- Obi/Ob/Obby - Obsidian
- Sweaty/Sweat - A try-hard player
- Stacked - Having good gear
- Mid - Middle
- Dias - Diamonds
- Ems - Emeralds
- Rush - Target a certain team very quickly before they have time to defend their bed well
- Inc - Another team is coming to your base to kill you or destroy your bed
- Prot - Protection for the team's armor
- Sharp - Sharpness for the team's swords
- Strat - Strategy for winning the game
- Gen - Resource generator
- TC - Team chest
- EChest - Ender chest
- Teamwipe - Breaking a team's bed then final killing all of them
- Camp - Stay at your base for a long time or the entire game
- Clutch - Winning the game without a bed and/or placing a block to prevent falling into the void.
- Carry - Having your teammates help you win or win for you with you doing little to no work
- Butterfly - A bed defense where you surround your bed in a layer of endstone, with a layer of glass on top
- Sandwich - A bed defense where you surround your bed with wood, adding a layer of wool and topping it off with wool
- SG - Split gen (see tips on how to do that)
3
Look for a party in the Bed Wars lobby, found on Hypixel. Parties are groups of players that play in a team, but are chosen to be in the party by the party host. Players looking for parties are usually found in the Bed Wars Lobby #1. Type in the chat that you're looking for a party, then wait for a request. Accept it and read the party chat. Use /pchat to tell the party members if you want to defend, rush, etc. Then, wait for the party host to warp you into a game.
- Most of the time party hosts ask for a certain amount of stars, given when you win games and get kills. These hosts preferably want 400+ stars, which can take around a week worth of constant playing to get. You might just find a nice party host that will invite you, though!
4
Join a game. Go into the lobby for Bed Wars and choose a mode, or wait for your party host to warp you.
5
Go to your resource generator. This is located at the back of your spawn cave, where, hence the name, you spawn. This generator gives you iron and gold ingots, which can be traded for blocks, weapons, armor, and spawn eggs.[4]
6
Buy wool. This is very cheap and doesn't cost much at all at 4 iron ingots. It is extremely important you get wool early on so you can defend your bed, build to other team's bases, collect more resources, and so on.
7
Buy blocks to defend your bed. The blocks you should use are obsidian, end stone, wood, wool, and blast-proof glass.
- Avoid using hardened clay for this step.
8
Build a defence your bed. If your bed is destroyed, you won't be able to respawn. Then, if all your team dies, you lose![5]
- The area around it should be big with plenty of layers; and not hollow. Try using endstone first, wood second, blast-proof glass third, and another layer of end stone last. This is optional, when you get good enough, you can only use wool though. Beware of tools, they will mine certain blocks quicker.
- If you collect 8 emeralds, you can add obsidian to the bed as well!
- Don't build a cube around your bed. Instead, put one block on each side of the bed, not including the corners, then sneak to put 2 blocks on top of the bed. Add from this first layer by putting blocks on the side and on top of any visible blocks on the previous layer.
9
Add water to the top of the bed defense. A bucket of water costs 8 gold and prevents TNT explosions and pushes enemies away from the bed. You don't need to do this because people deem water annoying and unnecessary.
10
Save up Iron and Gold ingots. Use these to buy iron armor and a stone sword, buy these as soon as possible but don't waste time getting them at the start of the game. These cost 12 gold and 10 iron respectively, but it will keep you protected from enemies. Be sure to buy the armor first, though.
11
Build a relationship with your teammates. This is important because if you communicate with your teammates, they are more likely to help you out or even play more games together in parties!
12
Build over to diamond generators. You'll need diamonds for Team Upgrades, which help defend your team from your enemies. The best ones to buy are miner fatigue trap protection 1 and sharpness.
13
Build to the middle and collect Emeralds once you have at least 1 trap. This is really important if you want better like speed, jump boost, and invisibility potions, obsidian, and ender pearls. Invisibility and pearls are the most expensive, invisibility cost 2, and ender pearls cost 4.
14
Buy and eat a golden apple. This gives you 4 extra health points and absorption, so you have a better chance of winning fights. A good strategy is something called "pre-gapping" where you eat the golden apple (gapple) before the fight, to tank more damage.
15
Target a team and kill them. Try to kill the entire team as quickly as possible so you can complete the next step without them respawning in time to stop you.
16
Destroy the other team's bed.[6] You can do this in multiple different ways, but the main strategy is to kill the team, mine through their defense while they're dead, then kill the team again when they respawn. If you can't do that though, try these methods:[7]
- Build up and drop TNT on top of the bed defense. This is good if they don't have blast-proof glass, water, or obsidian on the bed. After you drop the TNT, wait until it explodes, then drop down and break the bed,
- Throw fireballs at the bed defense from far away. This will keep them distracted while you run over and break the bed.
17
Kill the team/player again and repeat the previous step for all teams. Usually, you kill them with a sword, by knocking them off the edge, throwing fireballs at them, and/or using bow and arrows.
18
Save up resources to buy expensive items later on. Save iron, gold, diamonds, and emeralds. Use iron for blocks and tools, gold for bows, arrows and the last upgrades of the tools, diamonds for protection and sharpness, and emeralds for potions, pearls, and if appropriate, bridge eggs.
19
Camp at your base and shoot arrows at the dragons if you reach Sudden Death. Sudden Death is the phase after Bed Gone, where team's ender dragons swoop down and break everything in sight, including blocks not placed by players. Using bridges of any kind isn't worth the risk because of fireballs, bow and arrows, players, and the ender dragons. Instead, to go to another player to kill them, buy a lot of ender pearls and pearl wherever you want to go. Avoid getting to this phase at all costs!
- During this phase, use up all of the previous items you saved. The most important items are ender pearls, dream defenders (very annoying if used against you), and bow and arrows. Place all of your dream defenders about 30 seconds apart.
20
Say "gg" and "gf" in the chat at the end of the game. "gg" will grant you 5 karma, but "gf" won't (which does absolutely nothing except look cool), plus making you a good sport. Say this no matter if you lost or won. Note: the higher your rank the more karma you get every time (VIP=10 karma VIP+ =15 karma MVP=20 karma and MVP+ = 25 karma).

Part 3 Part 3 of 3:High Level Bedwars

1
When building bridges, make sure to build up a block around 7 times. This will make it so that enemy teams will have to build up to get to your base; you can also attack them while they are stacking up.

Community Q&A

Question

How do I speed bridge?

Jakanader

Community Answer

To speed bridge, place a block and then un-shift until you reach the end of the block, where you shift again. This will take some practice, though; until you get really good at this, try moving to the side of the block and holding "S" and a strafe key to go a bit faster than normal shift bridging.
Question

How do I get in a game?

Elektrosonix

Community Answer

Go to Multiplayer, click Add Server, put "mc.hypixel.net" and enter this server. Right click the compass, click on the anvil, and left click on the person wearing pajamas with a tag saying, "BED WARS, CLICK TO PLAY."
Question

How do I get the game Bed Wars?

Community Answer

You need to buy Minecraft first. Bed Wars is a mini game on Hypixel not a game in itself.
Question

How do I get the best protection for my bed?

Community Answer

You need to save up for obsidian, or build several layers around your bed in order to have sufficient protection for your bed.
Question

Can I disconnect and then reconnect?

Community Answer

Yes. Click /rejoin if you are disconnected.
Question

How do I start playing?

Community Answer

If you mean what should you do from the start, you should establish with your teammates your position. You can either build around the bed, go to diamonds, or go to mid. If you are new, the best thing to do is build to diamonds using wool. If you mean how to actually get to the game, download Minecraft, click Multiplayer, click Add Server, and under the IP put mc.hypixel.net. Once you join, click on the compass and then the bed.
Question

Why do I need to wait for iron gear?

Community Answer

You don't have to wait for iron gear, but it helps if you do wait to get iron gear.
Question

How do you get on the Bed Wars to play it with people?

Community Answer

You can either go into the mini-game and play with new people you don't know, or you can use the command "/p invite (username)" before you enter a game. This will spawn with your friends/people you invited.If you want to play with random Minecrafters, just join bedwars in the server.
Question

Should I go to mid, or get molten forge?

Community Answer

Both are great options. Mid spawns emeralds faster, but molten forge gives you more privacy if you haven't built a bridge to mid yet.
Question

Can I speed bridge to mid straight away?

Community Answer

Yep! Make sure to bridge up, though, as other teams will use your bridge to middle as a way to your base.

4v4v4v4 Strategies

Have three rushers and one defender on your team. This strategy mainly involves the rushers buying either tools or TNT and wool, then quickly rushing enemy teams. Rushers can throw iron or gold to each other, thus making it possible to have one or two people bridge while the others have TNT and are following behind. The rushers can attack enemy teams through diamond generators or through emerald generators before the enemy team is ready. If the rushers bridge through middle, one rusher can collect 2 emeralds to buy an invisibility potion. The defender may toss gold to rushers to speed up the process. The defender will create a butterfly defense, which requires 12 endstone and 16 glass. An outer layer can also be added; this will require 32 blocks. After finishing the butterfly defense, the defender puts the extra two glass into the team chest, where it can be accessed if the defense needs any replacements.
Try IYN strategy. This strategy is used by very high level players, and it has a specific role for every player on the team. In this strategy there are two rushers and two defenders. Each rusher is paired up with a defender. The rushers save up to either 24 or 28 iron, and they drop all of their gold to their defender and spend all their iron on wool. Rushers will quickly bridge to left and right diamond generators and then build up above the enemy beds that are in those directions. The defenders save up to 36 iron. At this point, one of the defenders will buy TNT, 12 endstone, and 4 glass, and the other will buy TNT and 12 glass. They will construct the butterfly defenses quickly then rush and follow behind their rusher with TNT. After the defenders TNT the enemy beds, they and the rushers drop down, break the bed, and fight. If they die before finishing off the adjacent enemy teams, they will keep trying to eliminate them. Once the adjacent enemy teams are eliminated, the whole team attacks the last team. The reason this strategy is mainly used by high level players is because if one player messes up, the whole strategy is screwed. The strategy focuses on breaking enemy beds as soon as possible.

Doubles Strategies

Give one player two gold and the other player 4 iron. The first player saves up to 12 iron total, then quickly buys 48 wool and rushes (bridges) to the closest team (some of the maps only need 32, such as solace, and lighthouse). Once the second player has acquired 4 gold, they buy TNT and spend the iron buying as much wool as possible. They create a 1-layer wool defense, then they quickly follow behind the bridger with their TNT. They TNT the enemy team, break their bed, then eliminate them. After the first rush is eliminated, the pair will split up and attack enemy teams in a circle, one going clockwise, and the other counterclockwise, collecting emeralds if necessary.

Clutch Strategies

Use 4v4v4v4 or 3v3v3v3 clutches. The whole team stays in their base to prevent from being knocked off, and each of them gets decent gear (iron armor and a stone sword at least). They travel to the middle island, and as a team, they collect emeralds. Once they have 2 - 4 emeralds for every enemy team remaining, they head back to their base and buy an invis potion for every enemy team, and some extra jump or speed potions. The players with the invis potions rush the enemy teams and break their beds. After the enemy beds are broken, the team collects more emeralds then uses potions to defeat the remaining enemies.
Solos or Doubles clutches. These are basically the same as 4v4v4v4 or 3v3v3v3 clutches, except that they don't have to stay together all the time, and they can move from base to base to get to the enemy bed.

Bed Defenses (bed is in the center)

Use Butterfly Defense. This is the most used defense by seasoned players and is only used in 4v4v4v4 or 3v3v3v3. It requires 12 endstone and 16 glass, which adds up to 72 iron total. An extra layer of wool and wood is added sometimes. The extra layer requires 32 blocks, which is 8 iron (wool) or 8 gold (wood). The butterfly defense is useful because the enemy team cannot easily break the defense with TNT. If they do, it is still extremely difficult for them to break the bed and it is easy to block off the opening with wool. Using endstone makes it hard for the defense to be broken without a pickaxe.

Use Wood Defense. This is a decent bed defense in Solos and Doubles, but not so much in the other modes. It requires 16 wood and 10 wool, which, in total, costs 4 iron and 4 gold. This defense is useful in Solos and Doubles because it doesn't require too many resources and enemy won't be able to void kill you with tier 1 tools (void killing is the process of knocking a player into the void, and then mining the defense and breaking the bed before they die, so that they die as a final kill).

Tips

The best tip is, if you want to be good at Bedwars, watch Bedwars YouTubers.
If you have high-cost items on you, such as an axe, pickaxe, TNT, or Emeralds, try to make that life count. Dying in that situation would cost you some high-level resources!
Golden Apples can help you win fights when you have an armor or weapon disadvantage. They are also useful to regain health quickly when rushing an island.

Do not cheat.
Follow all of the server guidelines.
If you try to go to the emerald generators, be warned that players that go earlier are not as good as the ones that have killed a team, so chances are the ones who have will decide to rush and break your bed if you build to the middle.
