Our researchers have once again thoroughly tested all the anarchy servers again to deliver another roundup of the 5 best servers to play on this year. This list comes following the downfall of 2b2t. How have they done it?
Unlike the results luckily, the method is kept secret.
Once again, if you wish to only know about the ranking:
- avas.cc | ★
- 6b6t.org | ★
- 9b9t.org | ★
- constantiam.net
- phoenixanarchy.com
AVAS is our #1 pick for 2023 due to it's strong development team, balanced economy, solid performance, and playerbase. You can join their Discord at https://avas.cc/discord, or you can join the server and get started at avas.cc.
#5 - PhoenixAnarchy
IP: phoenixanarchy.com
A small community still deserving an honorable mention is this server running the addon “mcMMO” with a map of almost 2 years age and a fair donation system. While it’s not pure vanilla anarchy like 2b2t, it is nonetheless a good server in the anarchy landscape.
Pros:
- A unique experience with a MMO-like feeling
- Modified world generation, making finding structures a challenge
- Easier for beginners
Cons:
- Small (but active) playerbase
- The lack of a dupe means it can be difficult to keep and obtain items on the server.

#4 - Constantiam
IP: constantiam.net
Before we start off, this one has one big catch. It’s a mostly whitelisted server, you will have to apply for access to this server on their website . Otherwise it’s a place where quite a lot of 2b2t players flock to now, becoming a popular alternative to that server.
Pros:
- A large player base gives you more opportunity to create or join groups
- A history similar to 2b2t, giving you more chance to explore
- Zero admin interference policy (though, this has been debated)
Cons:
- Often whitelist-only; this means you may not be able to access the server.
- A strict anticheat means that there are very few modes of travel
- The lack of a dupe means it can be difficult to keep and obtain items on the server.

★ #3 - 9b9t
IP: 9b9t.org
A popular alternative for those who don’t want to sit in queues all night long. Made to be a slightly altered variant of 2b2t, 9b9t is still running 1.12.2 but with several caveats enforced through plugins. It’s around 7 years old now, belonging to the older servers on this list.
Pros:
- Very similar to 2b2t without a queue.
- Old server with a relatively long history, which is available on their wiki
Cons:
- Unlikely to update past 1.12, and if they do, it will likely be like 2b2t
- The complete lack of a dupe and deletion of duped items means items are extremely difficult to obtain, and hinders the completion of large projects.

★ #2 - 6b6t
IP: 6b6t.org
A special entry to this list as it’s the only cracked server, accepting unverified copies of Minecraft. Many cheats work here, there is a stable playerbase and has a few additions for convenience like teleporting enabled.
Pros:
- Cracked server, meaning you won't have to pay for Minecraft to play 6b6t.
- Runs the latest version of Minecraft
Cons:
- Based in North America, which can mean bad ping for those located in Europe and Asia.
- Teleportation and home commands take away from the values of traditional anarchy servers like 2b2t.

★ #1 - Absolute Vanilla Anarchy (AVAS)
IP: avas.cc
With a long history, the server’s name “Absolute Vanilla Anarchy Survival” fits. A lenient anti cheat, allowing all cheats with movement speeds up to 48 blocks per second make the lack of 6b6t’s teleportation commands acceptable. Features a dupe with 3 uses a day while always running the latest version of Minecraft. here.
Pros:
- An administrator with development experience means an extremely stable server.
- A smaller playerbase means more opportunity to make a name for yourself.
- A consistent, well-designed dupe system means items are easy to obtain and keep, while keeping the economy unsatured.
- No anticheat means travel is easy, while still keeping the server stable.
- Running on the latest version of Minecraft means that there are more things to do on the server.
- A democratic process means the playerbase is able to make major decisions on how the server is ran, keeping everybody happy.
Cons:
- The server's location in Europe means potentially bad ping for those in Central & West North America.
