Setting Up an Attackers vs. Defenders PvP Match

Preparing World Rules and Teams

Since the indoor desks, furniture, and walls are built from vanilla blocks, start by protecting the build from accidental damage. Make sure cheats are enabled, then set everyone to Adventure mode with /gamemode adventure @a so stray sword swings cannot break blocks during fights. Run /gamerule doMobSpawning false to stop hostile mobs from wandering into dark hallways or the outdoor yard. Next, split your friends into two groups using vanilla team commands: create teams for Attackers and Defenders, assign players, and optionally turn off friendly fire with /team modify <team> friendlyFire false.

Equipping Gear and Starting Rounds

Before switching out of Creative mode or opening starter chests, hand out matching combat gear to keep the standoff fair. Give each player a sword for indoor rooms, a bow with arrows for long sightlines, and equal armor or food. Send the Defenders inside the building to take up positions across the multi-room office layout and watch the entry points. Gather the Attackers outside in the snowy parking area. Count down in chat to start the match; Attackers must breach the building and clear the hallways, and the round ends once either team is completely eliminated.
