Minecraft Live 2022: Vote for the Tuff Golem!

Meet the tuff golem, a statue with a twist – it comes alive! When the tuff golem awakens, it will walk around, pick up, and hold any item it comes across. Don’t worry, it will return to the same spot that you’ve placed it when it turns back into a statue. It may be a work of art, but you’re the designer!

Between this and the copper golem, I get the impression someone on the team wants to have a cute player created mob that moves around randomly. Btw! There's lots of information about these mobs that's isn't stated in the trailers but is important to know before voting :)

[MayoChuu]

With so many cool mobs over the years of voting; it’d be nice if one year we had a vote between some mobs that didn’t win. Like a second chance to get them in the game

[ColeyMC.]

Can we just agree that mojang REALLY wants to add a golem to the game?

[WildcardGamez]

Important note: You can customize their colors. This isn't in the video but is mentioned on the page that their color can be customized by using different colors of wool while making it.

[KriskitTheSignGuy]

Something tells me they aren't gonna give up on having some sort of golem until it's voted into the game

[TheB]

Can't wait to vote on the gilded blackstone golem next year!

Art exibit is just one of the potential aesthetics you can pull off with the tuff golem. With its customizable clothes (poncho?) you can make them match the various environments and roles in a number of ways. They can be part of a factory lineup, walking around with various ores in hand, be store clerks, waiters at a restaurant, servants of a castle holding weapons for a knight, villagers assistant... and probably much more.

Even without a clear utility they bring in a lot of liveliness to the world being able to move items around as if they were other people carrying things. in some ways its just a display pedestal, but its also a blank slate type of mob that you can use to populate the world to simulate numerous scenarios.

I honestly think aesthetic mobs are underrated. We have so much in the way of automation and utility I think we could do with a little more focus on making world builds more alive. Of course there plenty of potential with some utility if there were a way to get tuff golems to deposit their items, or retrieve things from a dispenser... but im sure plenty of others will have their own thing to say on that.

Would they act as a solid block when they sleep? could we walk on them if that happened? could another golem sleep on another golem? You could probably make an interesting totem pole of Golems if they can stack on one another. Totem Golem confirmed? It would help if we could right click the golem to control when it wanders and sleeps. Since it returns to sleep at the spot it was originally made then spawning multiple in the same spot would be one way to make them stack on each other (what a wild platform that would become). Imagine the guy who'd go out of his way to make a secret platform out of golems that are locked away and only reveal the path when they are allowed to go back to their sleeping spot.

I'll stop dreaming as I have a bad feeling Tuff golem wont be winning :(

[sniffersweeps]

I do think a new type of golem is a nice addition to the game, but I feel like the sniffer is just too unique as a concept to just ignore it, and if it loses the mob vote I doubt they will ever add it in future updates (unlike golems that come in every shape and form)

[cobaltbluesky]

Basically, they saw how conflicted everyone was between the copper golem and the allay, and decided to combine them.

[axsRock]

i love how this mob was entirely forgotten about after the mob vote

[iDeactivateMC]

I think Mojang might LOVE Iron Golems

not sure though

[Brinkalski]

Make sure to read about it in the news section of the minecraft launcher! It looks like you can also determine its color by incorporating wool into its construction, and it won't throw away items you give it. It'll just keep holding it, and if it doesn't have anything, it will find an item on the ground to hold. It seems perfect for a museum

[yampiretx]

Now the options are:
1... more seeds/plants
2... hide n seek for enchanted items
3... art exhibition

[RaysWorks]

This golem actually has more uses than the Copper Golem from last year. But still lacking redstone wise. :(

[AnInternetMod]

So here are our options: More plants, a game of hide and seek, and living item holders.

[tommasomaruffi]

Jeb screaming has sent chills of pure fear down my spine

[bendymine]

Rest in peace, kid, from the rascal team.

[Firextravasate]

Someone should just make a mod pack with every vote mob, it’d be nice to have more then one.

[Bebu]

All the mobs are great. Why not add all of them?
Of course, add the winner first, and then in the next update add the other two.

[tuckerricklefs]

I am 100% ok with purely cosmetic features being added to the game, but I do still feel the other two mobs have stronger reasons for existing. Actually, none of the mobs seem like they are going to add A LOT to the game. I think I am going to vote for the sniffer just because it has the most interesting mechanic and idea behind it. Also if an archeology update is coming, the Sniffer would be a perfect fit.
