Episode 10 ended with Team B.S. falling back from the spider pit and their gear scattered through it. Episode 11 opens back in the middle of that mess, with the deaths sidebar at Scoti_Garbidis 20 and BasketMC 13. Within seconds chat reads "BasketMC was slain by Scoti_Garbidis." "Oh, God, I just killed you! Oh, God, oh, I'm sorry!"
Falling back to the tower
Nothing about the pit has improved. One of them is "down to a heart," and "there's a lot of bad guys that spawned." The call is to grab what they can and get out. "We need to fall back to the tower."
They take different routes through the marsh, and one of them ends up stuck in the water. "I'm gonna die because of this stupid water." "Keep on swimming!" Both make it. The coal and the torches are gone, but there's one hope left. One of them had jumped into the hole, "saw the chest, and just started chucking everything into it." The plan is to wait for the mobs to despawn and go back.
The second trip
They go back with half a wooden sword, a whole wooden sword, and "an almost broken knockback shovel." This time they hug the side of the marsh. It doesn't help. A horde comes down from a spawner above them. "I'm in a pit. I'm gonna die. I don't have any weapons."
From here chat fills with death lines: "slain by Zombie" for both of them, then "BasketMC was blown up by Creeper." "We're doing really good. And then all of a sudden something happened." Part of the problem is that natural spawns are picking up their dropped stuff, so they need to let those mobs despawn too.
Sprint and grab
The new tactic is to sprint in, grab whatever is on the ground, and loop back out. It sort of works. One of them comes out with 48 torches and asks how that happened.
Torches and a crafting bench
On the next pass they spam torches, put one on a spawner and set up a crafting bench right there. "We can make more torches. Because what we need is more torches." One of them makes two pickaxes, and the other grabs a "cool pick." A little later, Basket's hotbar shows a Dead Miner's Pickaxe.
By now the sidebar has flipped: Basket has caught up to Scoti at 25 apiece. A stone sword helps a little.
One more emerald
A chest stuffed with cobwebs holds a single emerald. "Go ahead, leave it." "No, I took it." Skeletons keep finding them, and one of them is "aggravated by my lack of torches and my lack of supplies and these jumpy skeletons." After a long chase, the emerald reaches the tower. "We have four emeralds."
There's also a lesson: "We've learned our lesson about setting up our base far away from places where you spawn." One of them starts securing spawn with torches and a one-way ramp so mobs stop piling up there. On Basket's screen, one of the chests also holds an Antidote.
They end with almost a stack of potatoes and a melon farm that is "gonna happen off camera."
That's twenty deaths this episode: fifteen for Basket and five for Scoti. The sidebar ends at BasketMC 28 and Scoti_Garbidis 25. Basket now has more deaths than Scoti. No wools or emerald blocks are placed on screen.
