What is a canon death in Minecraft? – Sportskeeda

With the Dream Minecraft SMP gaining traction, lots of players are wondering what a canon death actually is.

Dream’s SMP has implemented a system called the 3 Lives System. This basically means that whenever a player dies, that is not the end of their journey. Players have three lives to spend, so if they die twice, they still have one life left.

Resurrections may also occur in the 3 Lives system. However, this has been tweaked on the Dream SMP. On Dream’s SMP, only deaths that occur during important events take one of the lives away.

Canon deaths do not only take place on Dream’s SMP but on other Minecraft SMPs as well. It is quite common for SMPs to follow a specific storyline, and any deaths that occur within the storyline are considered canon deaths.

Canon itself, by definition, means material that is officially accepted as part of a story or a story’s universe. The word has been used in pop culture for a few years now.

Having said that, canon deaths are not an official part of Minecraft. They only occur in storylines that people roleplay on Minecraft.
