# RevivalPVP<\/p>\n
**Competitive 1v1 PvP duels with cross-server matchmaking.** Press **Y** anywhere
\n in Minecraft (title screen, your survival world, your friends’ server) and
\n the RevivalPVP hub opens. Pick a kit, queue, fight a real opponent on the
\n RevivalPVP duel server, return to wherever you were when it’s over.<\/p>\n
No alt account, no extra login. Signs in with your Minecraft account via the
\n standard Mojang session protocol. Same trust model as joining any online server.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

## Features<\/p>\n
– **9 kits to duel with**: Sword, Archer, Crossbow, Mace, Crystal, Spear,
\n Trident, TNT, Fist. Each kit gets a balanced standard loadout AND a
\n customizable variant picker so you can tune your gear (Sharpness V vs.
\n Sharpness III + Looting III, Power V vs. Flame I + Power IV, etc.).
\n – **Ranked + Unranked queues.** Ranked uses OpenSkill rating. Complete 10
\n placements, climb through Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum,
\n Diamond, Master, Grandmaster, Challenger.
\n – **Map vote** before each duel. Multiple arenas in rotation, both players
\n vote, finalized after a short window.
\n – **Spectator mode.** Watch live duels from a Live Matches list, with proper
\n vantage cameras and side-isolated WorldBorder so you can’t bleed into
\n someone else’s fight.
\n – **Friend duels.** Send a duel invite to a friend, skip the queue. Friend
\n list with online presence (idle \/ in queue \/ in duel \/ offline), persistent
\n WS keepalive so invites land reliably.
\n – **Match history + leaderboards.** Per-kit rankings, your match history
\n with kit + opponent + LP delta, opponent profiles + sponsor coins.
\n – **In-game web sign-in.** Generate a 6-character code in the hub to sign
\n into revivalpvp.net without leaving the game.
\n – **Auto-update notifier** *(coming with the next Modrinth release)*. The
\n hub will surface “Update available” if a newer version exists on Modrinth.<\/p>\n

\n 2. Drop `revival-pvp-mod-
\n 3. Launch the game. The first time the mod starts it’ll connect to the
\n RevivalPVP backend in the background.
\n 4. Press **Y** (default keybind, rebindable in Options, Controls,
\n RevivalPVP, Open Hub) to open the hub. The first time you queue, the
\n mod authenticates you using your Minecraft session. No extra password,
\n no separate account.
\n 5. Pick a kit + Ranked\/Unranked, click **QUEUE UP**. When a match is found
\n you’ll be transferred to the RevivalPVP duel server automatically.
\n 6. After the duel ends you’re returned to your previous server (or the title
\n screen if you joined from there).<\/p>\n
\n No. The mod uses your Minecraft session for auth, the same protocol
\n Minecraft itself uses to join an online-mode server. You can also create a
\n website account from the in-game hub by generating a one-time login code.<\/p>\n
\n No, the mod works on any vanilla server. There’s an *optional* companion
\n plugin (`RevivalPVPServerMod`) that lets server admins expose `\/pvp` to
\n players who don’t have the mod installed, useful for partner servers.
\n Modrinth listing is for the client mod only.<\/p>\n
\n Your Minecraft UUID + username (to identify you in the duel system), match
\n results during a duel, and queue\/kit\/scope preferences when you queue. No
\n chat logs, no inventory contents from your own world, no telemetry beyond
\n match-related events. The default backend is `api.revivalpvp.net` and is
\n configurable in `config\/revivalpvp.json`.<\/p>\n
\n Yes. Open the hub on the server you’re on, send your friend a duel invite,
\n and the mod transfers both of you to the duel server when accepted. Both
\n players need RevivalPVP installed (or the server-mod must be installed on
\n their server).<\/p>\n
\n The Modrinth release is free to use. Source-code availability is documented
\n on the project’s website.<\/p>\n
\n Default is `Y`. Change in Options, Controls, RevivalPVP. The same hub
\n also opens from the pause menu via an added “RevivalPVP” button.<\/p>\n
\n – **Java 21+** required (Minecraft 1.21+ already enforces this).
\n – Tested with **Geyser\/Floodgate**. Bedrock players on Geyser-enabled
\n servers can use the companion server-mod’s `\/pvp` chat-clickable hub.
\n – Works with standard performance \/ QoL mods (Sodium, Lithium, FerriteCore,
\n Iris, etc.). Mixin surface is small and conservative: title-screen
\n button, pause-menu button, Y keybind. No hooks into combat\/movement code.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
