July’s Gates competition is complete, the votes are in and have been tallied, and it’s also the end of the first Emerald Points season!

We had some really interesting entries this month, asking players to build a gate for the coming boss battle world. Unfortunately we’re still waiting on a few things for that to work, but the gates was the first step, so we’re on our way!

On to the results.

1st Place: ShaesWings

ShaesWings created a brilliant looking striking cobra, with the gate hidden in the mouth. This is super cool!

2nd Place: Minxinspace

Minx built this volcano, which would fit in superbly with any Nether build.

3rd Place: Arsomegirl

Finally, Arsomegirl went to the End with this imposing portal building, complete with two End towers.

Honourable Mentions

Here are the other builds that scored votes but just missed out!

Tapukoko888 went big with this End gate design.

EvaLPS built an awesome EnderDragon head.

MrsMood designed an underwater build with some excellent symmetry.

And _xXDedukKingXx_ also went tall with this unique build.

Here’s the results:

Congratulations to _xXDedukKingXx_, Tapukoko888 and Xx_Aidan_xX for taking out the first season! We had a really close result, with third place coming down to the total votes received during the season. Congratulations to the rest of our points scorers. We’re all really looking forward to Season 2!

I’ll be in touch with the winners this week to tee up some prize collection times. Bring on Season 2!
