The best Minecraft servers are buzzing with heated debates. All the discussions are around the first entry of the next Mob Vote, and it's none other than an agile Crab.

Crab in Minecraft Mob Vote (2023)

The content in our guide relies on the information from the official Minecraft blog post. But, it also includes a few speculations to fill in the gaps about the same.

What is the Crab Mob in Minecraft

The Crab is the first mob entry for the Minecraft Mob Vote 2023. This small and probably neutral mob has a distinct blue body with large orange claws. According to the reveal trailer, Crabs will spawn in the mangrove swamp biome.

But what really sets Crabs apart from other mobs is their ability to climb mangrove trees. It is unclear, at the moment, if they will be able to climb other trees or blocks in the game too. Moreover, if Crab mobs are like their real counterparts, they might be faster runners.

Crab Claw: New Building Tool

If you encounter a Crab in your Minecraft world and attack it, the mob will likely fight back. But, if you defeat it, Crabs drop a unique item called a Crab Claw upon death. This Crab Claw is a new building tool in Minecraft, which allows you to place blocks at a greater distance.

Currently, players can only place blocks up to 5 blocks away from their position. But, with the Crab Claw equipped, this block placement distance might extend by a few blocks. This tool is great for building tall structures. There is no information on whether you can use it to break blocks or not.

How to Vote for the Cab in Minecraft Live

The voting period for the Minecraft Live 2023 Mob Vote will begin at 1 PM EDT on Friday, October 13. Then, you will have 48 hours and fifteen minutes to vote for the Crab or the other two mobs. There are three ways to cast your vote in the Mob Vote:
