Minecraft Redditors discuss which blocks or items are iconic

Recently, a Redditor posted a simple outline of a Minecraft sword. The picture did not explain much, but in the caption, they talked about which block or item could be considered the most iconic. They mentioned diamond swords, dirt blocks, and even creeper heads.

The caption read:

"What do you think is the most iconic item in Minecraft. It could be the diamond sword or probably the creeper head or maybe even the dirt block!"

The original poster wanted Minecraft's playerbase on Reddit to discuss the most iconic block or item in the game.

Since it was an interesting topic, many members of the subreddit commented on the post. Within 12 hours, the post had accrued over 1,000 upvotes and comments.

Some commented that the grass block is the most iconic block or item. They discussed how it is easily recognizable and is also the game's official logo.

Every time a player spawns, they do so in the Overworld and are usually surrounded by grass blocks.

A Redditor also commented that a crafting table can be an iconic block or item since it is the first important block players craft after entering a new world.

Creeper head or face is another instantly recognizable visual. The mob's face is also one of the logos for the game and is used as the official launcher's icon. Furthermore, creeper is a mob that is popular amongst many gaming communities, mainly because of how annoying it is.

Other Redditors argued that the diamond pickaxe is the most iconic item since it is the first major tool players craft. Ever since the game was officially released, a diamond pickaxe has always been a special tool to have, particularly because of the diamond's rarity and the fact that a pickaxe is extremely useful.
