It would be cool if when you use a name tag labelled “William” on a warden it becomes a dancing warden

that is absolutly brilliant
Now try placing a name tag on it without getting killed :)

I'm really glad they didn't do the trypophobia design, even as someone who loves body horror. If they did do it I'd hope they'd allow for an alternative for those who suffer from tryophobia.

combat is fine imo, but I love them poking fun at the controversy.
love the combat system, you shouldnt just be able to spam click and win in any fight.
I think it’s better than before. I know people have so much nostalgia for simply being able to spam and spam the weapon, but I think the way you can now get critical hits by timing it well so your attack is charged and you’re jumping and falling down while hitting someone makes it more challenging and fun.
@@Luka1180 And it gives the feeling that your actually fighting and having a strategy with it rather then just running up and spamming with no strategy at all.
@@jacksonbloodmoon3787 What strategy lol. The strategy is just jumping up and critting them, running back a little bit to wait out the cooldown, and doing it all over again.

The reason they called it the “warden” is because of its purpose. What “warden” means is somebody in charge of protecting something or to take care of something.
Well, it seems to be protecting the sculk.

If you place a jukebox with a disc, Warden will dance, and then you can explore the dark biome.
Can't wait for the update Minecraft.
No, please
Please, no.
That is way too easy and would loose its humor very quickly
nah, you have to craft a mossy cobblestone guitar.
Please yes, I want to be able to distract the warden with music, it seems fitting since it's first sense is hearing and you have to get diamonds before being able to do this; you'd also have to get a disk.
I actually had a dream this night about the 1.19 update. I was just mining for diamonds and found the biome, i fell down and the sculk sensor went off and i ran to the biome. There were like 5 wardens and i hid, found a chest, and found 40 enchanted iron ingots, an enchanted diamond chestplate and some nice iron boots. (don't ask) it was a double chest (again, don't ask) and i created a perfect distraction when they ran after me. I just placed down a jukebox and played chirp on it and ran away... Then i woke up
i wonder why they would consider designing the sculks after a phobia. then, the people with the fear might not want to interact with the sculks since it triggers their phobia.
And triggers the warden.. wait is it just me or is it designed to be scary edit: if they trigger the yelling thing
Seeing the Warden rise up from the ground in the Minecon clip was the scariest thing I've ever seen come out of Minecraft. You literally can't hide or run which makes it so scary

If the skulk used the trypophobia design, it would genuinely become a true horror game.
Honestly, someone should make a texture pack that keeps it
I hoped they would use all 4 designs and generate them randomly for some variation... it would be cool
I hope not. I have trypophobia and looking at that design is horrible. It would be irresponsible of them to keep it in. It is hard enough to have to look at coal ores as it is.

We had Jean for the Ender Dragon, Simmons for the Wither, and now William for the Warden. Nice.
THE WITHER IS NAMED SIMMONS?!
Simmons?
Since when?
The problem is that their is no one specific Wither or one specific Warden unlike Ender Dragon which there can only be one of at a time.
Don't forget the question mark as part of the name for "Jean?" And I think that "Simmons?" have it as well. At least, it's safe to say that WIlliam doesn't have any.
What about the elder guardian?
The old Warden design look's so creepy like, imagine seeing that at a dark abandoned mansion.
The smiles and jaws , creepy.
its pure nightmare fuel, and they come up with that for a game with the majority of its playerbase being kids, i get why they toned the nightmare fuel down abit, imagine being a little kid that just got the game and played for afew days, without much info about the game, then stumbled upon the deep dark city, and to meet some scp nightmare fuel monster that rushes at you with a a razor sharp mouth and eerie look, along with the darkness effect,
They should have 1.20 be the Warden update where they add every developmental version of the warden spawn at the surface and terrorize the player

Something I wanted to suggest about the Warden is that if the player is X number of blocks above the warden (Ex: in a 4 tower) he can hit the ground breaking some blocks, or throwing the player backwards causing him to fall from the tower with the knockback.
I'll be disappointed if the Warden doesn't magically get a bow tie and cane whenever you play a music disc near it
There'll be mods, I'm sure >:)

Hi Animation
Bro, it's "William"... not "warden"
@@bolacha1429 It looked like Siren Head lol
Something I’ve noticed
If you look within the mouth or holes of the beta Warden, the same texture for the End Portal/Gateway can be seen.
The Warden and the Hollow it was supposed to be affiliated with could’ve been connected at one point with The End.
Some of the other beta designs look like concepts for the Watcher from Minecraft Dungeons, an Enderman littered with eyes on its body.
Just some things to think about as I’ve been studying Willia- I mean.. the Warden.
Idea, if you play a Jukebox near a Warden, it grows engraged and begins smashing down all the blocks around it.
However, if you manage to nametag a Warden as 'William' and then play a Jukebox (in that order) it will dance. Once.
It's official, it's canon; Alan Becker's "instrument-taming the warden idea" is a real thing
I KNOW RIGHT I LOVE IT!!!
Ikr!
yes
hear me out: the goat horn doesn't have a use yet
@@rueisabelle8765 perfect match
This makes me wonder if they are teasing that the Warden might be soothed by music from noteblocks, jukeboxes and maybe a future instruments item. Maybe a goat horn could be used in a way to interact with the warden
the warden ignores you if you wear a goat head you got with a charged creeper explosion
Imagine they did something similar to what happened in the animation vs Minecraft episode with the warden where the flute (which would obviously be a goat horn in actual Mc) kinda calms it down, opens up a whole lot more room for lore too
I really like the design of the hollow mob (especially it's crystal and moss varients)
and those trypaphobia designs ought to be part of whatever the next dimension is. they're very unique and i can totally envision them being part of a more unique dimension in order to distinguish itself from the other 3. A "rot" dimension sounds absolutely amazing.
With this new update coming to Minecraft, I feel a Minecraft dungeons Deep Dark DLC would be amazing seeing how much structure is being put into the caves and having so many cave themed mobs! If this doesn’t happen, then I’m still happy we’re getting this in the main game!!!
I hope so, Dungeons has gotten really boring recently.

My theory is that this ancient city had an ancient civilization living in it (ancient builders) and the warden was like a protector or golem (hence the name Warden) .But the sculk infection infected it killing everyone but the warden survived but corrupted by the sculk.

Mobs like William, frogs have special animations. Frogs have a slow step and their feet movements are more detailed to match it's slow movements. William gets a buncha new animation, especially walking one. Unlike the other mobs just walk with just army and leg patterns the same. Is the developer team planning to update their animations? Could be a simple fix of how the Vindicator, Piglin and Brute have a unique sword holding arm when they spot a target. About the breeding, turtles lay eggs on sand, frogs lay eggs in water, and bees just pop out a tiny bee? Doesn't really make sense isn't it? Because this is the caves and cliffs maybe it's time the bats deserve some love. Those are some of my ideas for the game! No, this is not some sort of complaint or criticism to the Minecraft game. Thank you for understanding!
Exactly!! I feel exactly the same way and these things have always bothered me! I'm sure they'll do something at some point (with the animations), I'm just excited to see another person other than me point it out.
....-Frogs- Toads are a bit jarring that it walks than hops.
You see…. the old mobs are kinda like, nostalgia. There is a crowd of the player base that RALLIES at the mere THOUGHT of changes to preexisting features.
That, and keeping echoes of Minecraft’s kinda janky and quirky past is a nice touch imo. I like the preexisting mob animations as is.
And…. not everything needs to benefit the player directly. Bats add value through atmosphere and character. Not everything needs a use.
@@BigMastah79 hey! You could always go back to the old versions!
@@SileyCone Really? I’m talking from a game design standpoint on why changing the animations would be to the game’s overall detriment. You say that to classic fanboys crying over new cave generation
The warden be like when it kills you: Hippity Hoppity, Your Soul is now my PROPERTY!
I think I understand why it's called the Warden, the souls from other mobs are prisoners, trapped in the sculk and the Warden is a prison guard who captures new prisoners who trespass the deep dark.

Early concepts are just ok but albino teeth face is basically a Shambler when designed by mojang. First ones that appear just screams "Hi, Im Siren Head but for Minecraft!"
3:25 they should add that vined up version as as lush caves mob that would hide with the growth and sthlk you! In other cave areas it’d have camouflage there as well. That version looks so awesome.
yes! that was my favorite design of them all, but it probably wont happen tho :(
@@Veilwing it won’t lol
It would be cool if it was neutral, since they seemed to be pushing the idea of not forcing their player base into a stealth experience.
I think that there should be something similar to villager types! Like if there's a lush cave that's interlapping with the deep dark, boom, lush warden

“The Warden” is an interesting name choice, and i’ve got a theory for that.
Wardens, like wardens of prisons, are built to keep things in. To protect something and make sure it’s preserved, like prisoners in their jail cell. A warden in this context would want to keep their inmates alive and in order, in check. In Minecraft’s context, i propose the Wardens purpose is to protect whatever’s in the Deep Dark- which could be extremely valuable seeing as there’s an entire creature(s) to this cause.
An ancient civilization dwelled long ago beneath the ground and harnessed their surroundings, or the power of the Skulk to their advantage. They manufactured and created protectors (the warden) and other systems for their civilization. Much like how Villagers create Iron Golems to protect their village. As the last of the Deep Dark died, their creations were still left behind and thriving from their remains. This is what the Warden protects.
This civilization must’ve been adapted to the dark since it’s so hard to see and it’s tech is based on smell and sound rather than sight… I’m curious to see more lore and detail put into the Deep Dark soon!
that’s such a cool theory !
one could also theorize that the warden IS the remains of people who had fallen there.
since skulk absorbs exp, the life essence used in magic. who is to say it didnt gather the souls of explorers and animated a golem using them as magical fuel.
i mean, if you look at the different versions of the warden, you can see they they are always made of skulk. or at least part of them was.
now, idk how this ties to the name, but its an interesting theory to me.
perhaps, the warden exists to keep creatures who wander in from leaving. to die and give their exp/soul to the skulk.
wait... isnt that how it spreads? i could be remembering wrong but...
This is almost the same theory as game theory you should watch that episode and expand your theory
5:28 I really think this was inspired by Alan Becker's Animation vs Minecraft Shorts
Maybe the warden was a beta Iron golem
1:19 how bout this. If the warden successfully defeats a mob (for example a zombie) maybe it can do that dance?
_"Perhaps it's called The Warden because they meant to call it "William" and spelt it wrong?"_
MatPat : *STARTS THEORIZING ON HOW WILLIAM AFTON SOMEHOW AND SOME WAY IS CONNECTED TO MINECRAFT*
So we have the Warden, but will he also dance when he will be Released in the game?
it would be cool feature to see a Warden dance while going to the deep dark
like piglin dance
Dude. Juke box, can it cover the sound of footsteps? And can you overstimulate the wardens senses?
@@OrkOfOhio maybe who knows...
but it will be funny putting ton of juke boxes around its spawner

Gonna have to leave that one to Phoenix SC
now more than ever, there's need to be a feature where you can "befriend" the warden with music blocks. like the note blocks, or do like what Alan Becker did in one of his recent minecraft shorts
@Ocean Sky
Nah, it’s episode 13 about dolphins
@Ocean Sky yeah.
Nah the warden was made for the purpose to make people fear the deep dark
nah that would be too op
My idea of the stalker is that it could be a mob that hunts you down under a condition (like not sleeping, entering a specific territory or looting something). The player would have an effect that would allow the stalker to find them no matter what. It would be very agile and able to traverse any environment such as water, lava or small spaces. It would only stop after being killed or if the effect stopped, where it would just sit there motionless until the effect activates again.
I have trypophobia and am so grateful you chose the design you did. Thank you Mojang!
I like how Minecraft cares for their game a lot but also makes their content serious and funny to show that they care for their fans too.
I'd love if they were to reuse these designs and concepts
They're stellar.
what would REALLY be cool is for the game to have % chances of what the warden ends up looking like when it spawns.
similarly to how sheep and rabbits can spawn different colors and patterns, the warden's model could be randomized from a select "pool" chosen from the scrapped designs we saw here. that way, everyone's happy, because there's always a chance it will spawn as the one you liked/feared the most.
@@hobomike6935 That would be cool. But it'd rather see orher ideas bei g given this look rather than a reskin of the deep dark. Some kind of hive maybe? Or towering spire, a variation on treasure towers, so popular among the community
especially that trypophobian warden! it looks like something that minecraft would make in collaboration with don't starve.
i hope someone makes a mod that adds this wardens and maybe they spawn in different places, they look so cool
I do love how all of this is cannon. can't what to meet William and play my mossy cobblestone guitar to make him tap dance.
seeing on of the old designs showing the smart design with the patches like the end portal gives out its cover
THEORY: i now believe the the deep dark absolutely has no ties to the end but it’s actually the devs way of preparing to make a entirely new dimension for the next update! from the way the warden and the Sculk were designed and described in the concept art, this new dimension could possibly be a horror/elderich dimension that is heavily tied to undead aspects and it’s name could be the hollow. The dimension could be the entire reason of how the undead and souls came to be, from the Sculk catalyst being confirmed to be made from bones, the warden actually being a rotting corpse reanimated by the Sculk as well as it containing souls in its chest, the previous halloween-like name deepslate had that is a part of the deep dark, grimstone, how Sculk is spread through the death of a mob or player!
Skulk is likely not bones but the repurposed, infected flesh of creatures of the caves
I hope they will add a new type of trader/villager-like mob that will sell any kinds of random stuff (not like the Wandering Trader.) but with lapis lazuli.
Maybe diamonds?
Maybe potions.
Because lapis lazuli doesn't really used that much in this game. Except for enchanting.
I don't see a reason to add a new dimension. The sculk likely dosent come from anywhere else, it's just like some dark force that absorbed the living like a fungus or something. That's my theory
@@alexchamov5961 Considering all the void motifs in the concept art and proximity to the void - it might be that the Skulk is "nothingness" - the Void - taking living form
@@starsilverinfinity that's an interesting idea!
