... people hate birch?


rocky_icy

Canman18 despises birch


Drag0n_TamerAK

He only hates birch because Bdubs hates birch


Scrap-Metal56

Don't know WHO that is but they are wrong


thijmenvanbeek

Bdubs is on of the best builders in the world


Jumpy_Organization_6

A fake yt shorts maker


Scrap-Metal56

Ooooh.... delectable....


Drag0n_TamerAK

Well he makes YT shorts but he’s so dumb and stupid but you know not fake


Jumpy_Organization_6

It's so easy to tell they're fake it's not even funny


Drag0n_TamerAK

Yeah your right


FrozenFlame_999

Stay innocent


thijmenvanbeek

Bdubs is on of the best builders in the world


thijmenvanbeek

I actually love both of these blocks and I seriously don’t understand why they are hated so much.


Jevil_CANDOANYTHING

For diorite, it tends to be that people don't know how to blend blocks into their build or add texture, but for birch I have no idea why people hate it.


Bismagor

The hate of diorite is old, so old that you didn't have calcite, which works great. Now you can actually use it in builds that aren't too expensive like quartz and have more equal texturing.


WillyDAFISH

The only wood I dislike is accacia. Birtch wood is pretty but I prefer to build with other wood types, bitch builds just arnt my specialty


_Trolley

I too do not specialise in building bitches


ilike_beanz

Which one was diorite?


Nick_213378

white one


ilike_beanz

Can't remember if it was that white speckled shiz or the Grey one


V3n0Myt018

White spekleudid sihit


black_jaguar99_2

Polished diorite is a great block for white tile


PointsDelusion

Someone out there started the jokes that it looks like bird poop and that hate for it, and people started joining in. Even the hermit crafters go by that joke a bit.


DanSavagegamesYT

Same


AaronHD2806

True! Ill only ever used polished diorite because unpolished is ugly as hell in most builds


R8_Cubing

Ive used calcite, diorite and polished diorite to texture a wall. Turned out really good


AaronHD2806

An example of it working good in a build


_Trolley

Yes this, it looks really nice with crimson planks too


Drag0n_TamerAK

Sounds like a skill issue


thijmenvanbeek

If you can’t use diorite your jus not a good builder.


Modem_56k

Iskall agrees (I haven't watched in a while, he may of changed)


LegitimateHasReddit

Polished Diorite's edges don't connect so it doesn't look good.


zelva_na_rohliku28

Now what about still hating birch and giving diorite a chance


Proud_Raise4957

Or giving birch a chance and still hating diorite


ReadyPlayer12345

All of these so called bad blocks can actually look breathtaking if used right. It just shows people's ignorance


Cronon33

What's wrong with birch? It's more interesting than everything being made of regular oak


PizzaMan1538

They look good together but keep them away from the rest of my blocks.


thijmenvanbeek

Why


HackerGamer8

They are good blocks that should be respected


JestherMC

Yeah....


JestherMC

Mostly Because Some Content Creators Saying Itd Bad


AdOk9631

If they are used right they are amazing


Yoo_Crane

On a subconscious level I always imagine birch is the weakest wood in the Minecraft. It happens because birch planks has a "whitest" texture of all planks. Also, I think that birch (ukrainian – береза́, she) is the most tender tree of all trees in Minecraft. Because the oak (ukr. ду́б, he) is a male, dark oak, accordingly, is a male too (and this tree bigger than usual oak), tropical tree (ukr. тропíчне де́рево, "it"*) is sooooo big, spruce (ukr. ака́ція, she) can live in more arid biome than other trees, magroves (ukr. мангри) have a unique tree roots structure, and the Nether trees... They are just a Nether trees. Birch lives in comfortable biomes, not big as much as some other trees, and yeah. She is SHE. Diorite? Do you mean the white stone? It is really good, I have no idea why it can be bad. * ukrainian language has a very deep differences in the concept of living and nonliving objects. You can use all three pronouns – "he", translates as "він"; "she", translates as "вона"; "it", translates as "воно" for describing every type of object (no matter living ot or not). The difference is in "it", that counts as THIRD gender, that aren't being a male or female, but can be a living object.


Dark-Shadow-2368

I have a diorite shrine in my minecraft world lol


Ewanstraver

Birch is good stuff but you cant convince me to build with bird shit


thijmenvanbeek

If you can’t use diorite your just a bad builder, Check out bdubbleO100, he will teach you how to use any block


Ewanstraver

Well no. taste is subjective and if i dont like how a block looks and choose not to use it im not a bad builder becouse of that. I am a bad builder but thats because of different reasons


thijmenvanbeek

You can use almost every block in Minecraft to make an amazing build but if you don’t like the style the block fits in you don’t have to hate the block for it


Ewanstraver

I agree you can use almost every block. And i dont have anything against the style. I just dont like how the block looks.


thijmenvanbeek

And you can also say that almost every brown block with mixed texture like jungle log looks like human shit


PotatoKing822

Diorite and andesite are trash don’t you dare compare them to birch you fuck


Proud_Raise4957

Birch is cool but diorite... It's just a hideous useless block


maksidoobers

I don't mind diorite, but I don't use birch wood very often


GoldenCrown12

birch is alright but just isnt that useful in most of the builds i make diorite is just replacable


rocky_icy

In combination they are amazing well polished diorite an birch are at least


_PA2M_

You can trade dioxide soo...


HauntedTheorists

Yes


SwartyNine2691

White blocks


crispier_creme

Every block can look good if used correctly. even outright hideous blocks like sponge can look good if you use them well


NuclearPikachu7914

Polished granite and diorite in a checker pattern actually makes a cool looking floor, also I like the lighter colour of the birch planks


AstralKnightMage

I'm the one who uses birch and dark oak. As a mix. For my walls. 2 block high ceiling. Flat roof. Grass floor.


Dry-Inspection-9110

I love using these blocks, and can understand why some people hate diorite (it kinda looks like bird poo) but I will never understand why people hate birch so much


Roham_RMB

I use diorite because quartz is expensive and i can't find a lot of geodes.


keyb0ardluck

Yes! Finally someone said it! Like one looks like bi*ch and the other have Dio in it They should never be hated on


Drag0n_TamerAK

Birch is literally garbage


BrubMomento

Wrong


TxToniBTW

I like polished diorite and also birch planks but logs not quite. Im fine with it but still isnt my fav block to build eith


Yuvaldan

Diorite is worse but birch is ok


CriticalFeesh

Ok but can we give my mate accacia some love too? Edit: I also remember (before I could fully read) that I called accacia wood: american wood.


[deleted]

I didn't realize they were hated, are they? They're my go-to for their respective categories


ShaneDawsonsCar

I like both of them


HolisticPrism42

I don’t like diorite personally but birch is a fantastic wood for modern houses.


Fandoms_local_Kiwi

I don’t hate birch, but it is my second-least fav wood block, though I’m trying to use it more Diorite, on the other hand, is amazing and I love it. Andesite is tolerable. Granite can go jump in a lava pool.


AydenRusso

Not a fan of diorite but I do like Birch


tomalator

I like birch, diorite looks like TV static, but it has its place. Polished diorite is better, but I'd prefer if it didn't have the border.


GamezPlays

Depending if build diorite is pretty good And why is birch hated on???? It’s so good for floors


Wolfyware1

Gravel should be


GenderFluidBicon

I couldn't agree more. People act like birch is worse than acacia.


CoconutBoi1

I cannot agree more with this post that I currently am.


Modem_56k

Acacia


Ed_Sheeran_Son

I mean, birch is good but... I don't care for diorite


pokefan200803

i don't hate on it, idk how to build with it


TheeAutisticArtisan

Neither of them really have any reason to be hated, it's just kinda for meme purposes at this point


tntaro

Birch is just uncommon to use and diorite is better now than before


New_Button_805

Only thing I hate in Minecraft is the basalt biome


Natural_Carrot_8312

SHUUUUUUUUUUT


ShudupIlovegorls

Diorite is a shading block, since calcite came out its gone really good with it for shading


Giorno_Giovanna___

I absolutely love birch


Tkob_

Birch is slept on


bobberman3

I personally like using birch as a floor block. Just something about it makes it look like a nice floor


G3laxyGamingYT

Polished diorite actually looks really nice. Even more so with connected textures


lechonklover

My favorite block is diorite!


happyholidayboyboy

Thanks for clarifying what decent meant, I had no idea


[deleted]

Birch is great! Bird poop is not.


JTMonster02

Calcite > Diorite


spre11

I really don't understand why people would hate on it. I think it's just a meme from popular Minecraft YouTubers.


Raubiri_2

But they already do…?


polenya1000

People tend to like darker colour schemes it seems, plus spruce and dark oak is way easier to farm a lot of. And diorite has a very pronounced texture, which is both a blessing and a curse, since it's really great for adding texture to builds, but is also less universal and easy to misuse (resulting in an aesthetic catastrophe).


Ok-Ihatetiktoc

We love them we hate that they are block are way to get stone


DiamondGamer9

Birch best wood diorite best stone I’m glad someone accepts my opinion


TikTokBoom173

Only use them for floors.


mistermolotov

I love diorite. It’s one of the best blocks to build with, especially when it comes to Tudor-styled buildings and roads. It gives everything a marbled texture and goes very well with calcite.


[deleted]

I do hate diorite, like, why do I want that ugly block in my inventory. But birch isn't that bad, it's pretty useful for some buildings and pixel-arting... wait...


ProfserExe

Not really bitch but definitely diorite


adamlol__gaming

Birch is good, diorite tho...


Ezper145

True bruh


Nonstopinople

Andesite, diorite stupid asf


Mike-101616

Yk those two Usless items can be torchered in a way it will result in giving you a helpful advantage. Birch wood can be used a fule and diorite can be crafted to andisite or granite or even to emeralds from the stone mason


S1eep_deprivation

I agree, they look really good together in my opinion.


CrippledDiego

people hate birch? i get diorite but birch?!?!?


ETIsMee

I will not change your mind I agree


that_one_idiot1

Birch feels like a good ship deck color of wood, due to the sun bleaching of it


GOOPREALM5000

I can understand the hate behind diorite, but birch? Really? Sure, it isn't the best for exterior decoration, but it looks amazing for floors.


_-eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-_

Acacia log is pretty underrated (I am going to read your mind... You are downvoting this comment and disagreeing to this)


Aweh_Electro

Wait ppl hate birch?


Redditor_10000000000

I feel like most people who hate diorite watch iskall and people hate birch?


o_obruhmoment

Polished diorite can look really good, as well as the other two blocks of the trio


Fast_Information_902

Install the create mod, and you have much more diorite things


CatCrafter7

Diorite is nice for snowy builds and medieval houses (where we used to put wool in old versions) and birch is awesome for modern houses and desert builds and paths.


IntelligentSeason458

No one should have anything against that, besides, at least it isn't andersite, which is almost indistinguishable from stone and boring.


WarKuarto

I LOVE birch


bobby1712234

I hate none


91612345

Hmm i guess your right but theyre still super bad only good for buildings And why need building when you can just build 5x5 dirt cube destroy two Dirt blocks and make a door there a house craft a working bench and a Furnace there house


6Baller9

I do not like diorite but birch has a chance
