Pigmen in the Tunnel: GopherCraft UHC S6 Episode 4

  • Published on

The same team cards and "Day of the Dragon" title open the episode, with no episode number. Then it is back to the Nether, where Basket is alone in a narrow netherrack tunnel with two hearts left and a full hunger bar.

End of Day 4

The server posts "End of Day 4" and lists eleven players: BasketMC, FriarNurgle, TChels, xzosimusx, momofminers, Th3pooka, Frank_n_Honest, Sayulily, Gopherboy, TopStiGearGaming and SodaShaman. Team Hungry is down to two, Basket and SodaShaman. Under the list, BasketMC has typed "sure, bring food."

The cake is a lie

Chat gets going while Basket digs. FriarNurgle posts "I've got cake." Th3pooka answers "the cake is a lie," Gopherboy repeats it in capitals, and momofminers adds "we win." TopStiGearGaming follows with "dont trust cake! Its Portal All Over Again!"

Pigmen at the end of the tunnel

Zombie pigmen show up at the far end of the tunnel, gold swords in hand. The tunnel is only one block wide, and Basket swings at them with a stone sword as they come close. The hearts stay at two the whole time. With no natural healing in UHC, there is no getting them back without a golden apple or a potion.

Digging on

Basket checks the inventory, then switches to a stone pickaxe and keeps cutting through netherrack. One wall breaks open onto lava, glowing past the blocks.

A little farther on, the tunnel opens into a wider cave.

Out of the match

Moments later the screen turns red. "You died!" Score 164. Chat posts "BasketMC was slain by Zombie Pigman." The gg lines pour in from TChels, Gopherboy, xzosimusx, TopStiGearGaming, rePeteD, SodaShaman, momofminers, Frank_n_Honest and Sayulily. Th3pooka adds "GOOD GAME!!!!" and momofminers writes "i'm so excited" and "and i just can't hide it."

That is Basket's run in Season 6. Basket is out of the match. The episode does not show how the rest of the match went. After the credits, a black card reads "This text is to prevent spoilers. Nothing more to see. Thanks for watching!" and stays up to the last frame.
