1.9 Minecraft Servers

1.9 was quite a significant update that really contributed to shaping Minecraft into what it is today!It featured a new, quite controversial at first, combat setup completely re-engineered from the ground up! Shields, dual wielding and elytra were some of the new features it offered. Servers took a while to catch up and implement software to support those new features, but once they did, it really changed up all PvP and PvE aspects of the game! Check out the best 1.9 servers out there in our carefully assembled list below!
