  • Minecraft name sniping has been revolutionized in the past few months, but prior to changes on Mojang's end, name sniping was in a very dark place. For years, just one name sniper was able to consistently grab names; chearful.ninja. However, they didn't do a perfect job, so in todays episode of Minecraft Uncovered, we see where they fell short. From turbos, to handsnipes, to Mojang bugs, to complete sniper failure, this is the dark age of Minecraft name sniping.

    great video man, for the fan base you have your quality is absolutely off the charts. i'm brand new to the sniping community and was wondering how exactly chearful ninja works. like does a name i buy go directly onto my account and how? Thank you very much

    • @mcbyt
      @mcbyt  3 роки тому +1

      Unfortunately, chearful.ninja shut down shortly after this video was released.
      Back when they were on top though, usually you would provide an account for them to snipe the name on, then they would block the name until they could put it on your account.
      With the current state of sniping, it seems like the best snipers will be spamming name changes on random accounts instead of blocking on one account.
      Glad you enjoy btw

      Not really sure; as far as I'm aware, as long as you aren't using proxies and you use less than 30~ accounts, you'll be fine. I've tried to snipe probably about 20 names with the same set of 5 FA accounts on the same IP, never had any issues with them.

      No. When a player changes their name, it drops to the public in 37 days. "Name sniping" is when a player tries to take that name as soon as it can be claimed, usually because it's a very cool or valuable name. Stealing accounts isn't needed.
