Datapack Death Count

Death Count, a clear death counter for Minecraft servers

Death Count is a lightweight Minecraft datapack for Java Edition that tracks how many times each player has died. The result appears directly beside player names in the tab list, making the information visible whenever the list is opened without adding a permanent screen overlay or changing core survival mechanics.

Designed for quick use in any world or Minecraft server, it suits survival challenges, minigames, and friendly competitions where every mistake matters. The counter relies on Minecraft’s scoreboard system and keeps the experience simple and unobtrusive. At BoxToPlay, we recommend it for communities wanting an easy way to add extra social feedback to multiplayer gameplay.
