14w20a is the twenty-third snapshot for Java Edition 1.8, released on May 15, 2014,[1] which adds the /title command.
Additions
Command format
- Can make text display on a players screen in the form of a title and/or subtitle.
/title <player> times <fadeIn> <stay> <fadeOut>- Set the fade in time, the stay on screen time and the fade out time for the title.
/title <player> title <raw json message>- Set and start showing the title.
/title <player> subtitle <raw json message>- Set and start the subtitle.
/title <player> clear- Clear titles immediately.
/title <player> reset- Reset all title parameters to defaults (fade times).
General
- Added the following splashes:
- "Run, coward! I hunger!"
- "Blue warrior shot the food!"
- "Warning! A huge battleship "STEVE" is approaching fast!"
- "Rise from your grave!"
Changes
Blocks
General
- Blocks no longer have bits for metadata, the freed up bits are now used for block ids (dynamically).
Mobs
- "Slime sizing was moved to a post-spawn method, so the slime's canSpawn() method would report spawnability based on the initial size, not the final size. There is an added secondary check which fixes the issue."[2][3]
World generation
- Now generate on the surface of desert, mesa, mega taiga and mushroom biomes.
- If a player is stuck outside the world border, it is possible for them to freely fly/walk around (not possible to freely walk through the border).
Command format
- Now has a
selectorargument.- Allows to print player's names.
- Example:
/tellraw @a {selector:"@a[team=TeamRed]"}prints everyone who is on TeamRed. - Also works with
/title.
Gameplay
Spectator mode
- Adjusting fly speed in Spectator mode now works vertically too.
Player list
- Made tab-list more consistent and a little prettier when using health display objective.
- Now groups together teams.
- Now sorts players by name.
General
- The 'Towards Positive/Negative X/Z' was re-added.

Trivia
- 14w20a was previously removed from the launcher for some time, but was added back in September 2018.
- "Warning! A huge battleship "STEVE" is approaching fast!" is a reference to Darius, a series of games with the same sentence, showing before boss fights.
