You're using Nether Portals Wrong

Isn’t a boat on blue ice in the nether far better than a dolphin tunnel?
Of course there’s always that ~16 second portal time… but 600m/s (75m/s times 8 due to nether travel) is unmatched over long distances.

Dolphin tunnels are extremely expensive and one of the most annoying things to build. Nobody’s using “Nether portals wrong”… Blue Ice boat nether hubs are just way better than Dolphin tunnels.

You made an 8 minutes long video with lots of shots and editing and voice over to tell us that nether portal is only worth it if you're travelling long distances. Else use elytra with rockets.

You're welcome everyone.

I just use nether Portales to get from my base to the neather to the end faster

you missed a chance to use some linear graphs for the more mathsy viewers but still cool

My nethwrbpoetal is giving me damage and drowning

im sorry how do you know we'r using them wrong what give you the right to tell players how to play minecraft?

what is a dolphin tunnel???

This is very good post. Would watch again. (i wont)

well produced vid but the thesis is just really obvious to most people and isnt really necessary or entertaining to hear about something that is so self evident

dolphin tunnels in the nether be like

IMHO this is unfair, that minecarts is so slow

thank you for such useful information, without you, Id still be traveling 32 block via a nether portal 4 blocks away, but now that I know how slow it is I wont do it anymore <3

So would rails through the nether be faster than rails in the overworld?

I thought everyone knew not to take a flight to visit your local walmart.
its the same idea.

Does anyone use the nether to travel less than like 500-1000 blocks?

That cap

This is the type of research they should be doing in schools 😤

Amazing video as always! Now i just have to replace the hundreds of nether portals with just a couple of dolphin tunnels...


This will be a pain, but it's fineee

Just make a dolphin tunnel in the nether and you can have light speed travel

Thank you so much for making this bro!!! I was actually thinking about the in depth details of travel in minecraft and thinking about making the same calculations you did. Thank you so much again!!

Nether travel starts to be good when the travel distances get 4 or more digits long.

This video is about to blow up. Glad I'm early!

You can easlily make a chunk loader with a portal and minecarts as well

BROOOO, get this man more consistent viewers. you deserve it. this video was great.

It would have been really helpful for the demonstration if you just made a graph, the sheets and picture works well, it would just have been a bit more clear, but it was still a great video!

i only liked the video to make it 70 :)

I was sure this channel had 100k+ subs... but damn....
well deserved man! Worth a sub!

I did not expect this to be how your voice would sound, 👍not bad, also thanks for the info

me hit like button. me press subscribe. me SMASH the notification bell

I think I won that fight

As always, another AMAZING video! Thanks so much for all the good content so far!

hey nice video, but the same could be said about ice boats or other methods that dont stop your movement, but slow it. its less of an effect, but it still effects shorter distances

n00ber portal

thank you man now i am going to go build a dolphin tunnel that let's me travel 6900 blocks in 20 seconds 👍
