Introduction & Authors note
Given that due to... well this year, I have too much time on my hand I have decided to make a guide to Lucky Blocks.
Yet, most things this year, it has proved to be more difficult/complex than one would guess. Therefore, this is just part one. I will go through each phase of the game chronologically and talk about the does and don'ts.
As you can see by the title this is only part 1, as I don't want to put effort into something that maybe no one is interested in.
Index
Before we get started let us do some little theory – it will not take long. I play with the idea of a priority system for each typical situation I may encounter. However, it boils down this:
This is the very base for all that follows. Almost every action, every decision, every thought is made according to that list. Let us take a look on how this looks practical.
Kit Selection
These are all the kits we have:
Let us look at them one by one and apply our little list.

Before we get started let us do some little theory – it will not take long. I play with the idea of a priority system for each typical situation I may encounter. However, it boils down this:
- Be mobile
- Be invisible
- Protect yourself
- Deal damage
This is the very base for all that follows. Almost every action, every decision, every thought is made according to that list. Let us take a look on how this looks practical.
Kit Selection
These are all the kits we have:
Let us look at them one by one and apply our little list.
- Chef
Hence, food is such an abundance, I neglected it in my priority list. Making this kit next to useless (in this mode at least). - Healer
Healing and more HP plays into protecting yourself. This kit can be quite helpful on ranged 1v1s. You need some time to consume the items, time the enemy can and will use to deal some damage. This means that in close quarters this kit will not be much of a help. - Builder
Personal favorite: It gives you mobility with the blocks. Bridging, towering etc... you know the drill. Said blocks can also be used to protect yourself by barricading yourself especially on narrow bridges. The leather chest-plate is also quite useful in the early game, especially when unlucky in terms of items. - Warrior
Almost as bad as the Chef-kit, even though Point 4 is applied the damage is so low and better items so easy to get that it doesn't matter.
For reference: These tools deal the same amount of damage and are rather frequent.
