Classic Survival is a Semi-Vanilla survival server that was founded in February of 2020. We feature simple commands such as /tpa and /home while having no claims and no rules against pvp/griefing. The server has reopened and players have been enjoying a new map since March 10th, 2023!

Spawn is a protected area where players can safely trade but once you leave the protected spawn area there are no claims. We have a great team of moderators and admins to ensure fair play across the board with no unfair advantages allowed.

The map was recently expanded to 600K meaning there is more than plenty of space for you to start your own journey, whether it be by yourself or with others.

Anyone interested in PVP will be excited to see that we frequently host PVP events with rewards along with building events for any builders!
