Make a Sumo knockback arena

A tiny platform, a big drop, and one goal: knock everyone else off. The composable engine builds a sumo arena over lava or void with the win logic wired up — pure, fast PvP that a whole lobby can cycle through in seconds.

Installation and verification
- Back up your Java world and confirm the target Minecraft version in pack.mcmeta and README.
- Place the zip in that world's datapacks folder. pack.mcmeta must be at the zip root.
- Run /reload and /datapack list enabled with permission to use commands. Follow the pack's README for its start function and gameplay controls.
Generated entry point: /function sumo_knockout:build. Read the README before running it; map/build functions can change blocks.
This file inventory is produced from the example prompt by the repository generator. Structural checks do not prove every gameplay interaction, performance level, device or future Minecraft version. Generated assets can conflict with other packs.

Questions people ask
How do you win?
Knock every rival off the platform — last one standing takes the round.
Can I give players knockback weapons?
Yes — mention it in the prompt and the kit is set up for you.
Lava or void?
Either — say which in your description, and repaint the platform in the 3D editor if you want a custom shape.
Capabilities and limitations
Arena Forge generation and exports require a paid plan. You can explore the studio before upgrading. Start in an empty test world: build functions place blocks, and players should playtest spawn safety, team balance and win conditions.
Generated files pass structural checks, and representative packs have automated runtime tests. Test your particular creation in a copy of the world. Read the validation methodology.
