The Scoreboard command lets you create objectives, save player scores, and show tracking boards on the screen. It is the foundation for setting up minigames, rank systems, counters, and much more.
To get started, create an objective:
/scoreboard objectives add points dummy
This creates an objective named "points" with the dummy criterion, meaning it will only change value when manually edited via commands.
Scoreboard Command Examples (Java)
Display on the sidebar
/scoreboard objectives setdisplay sidebar points
Add points to a player
/scoreboard players add @p points 10
Test a score using execute
/execute if score @p points matches 10.. run say You won!
Copy scores between players (operation)
/scoreboard players operation @p points = @r points
Change display name (Java, after creation)
/scoreboard objectives modify points displayname [{"text":"Points","color":"gold","bold":true}]
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you create a scoreboard objective in Minecraft?
Use the command: /scoreboard objectives add points dummy
What scoreboard criteria work in Bedrock Edition?
Bedrock Edition natively only supports the dummy criterion. Java Edition features several additional criteria, such as health, xp, deathCount, and trigger.
How do you remove an objective from the scoreboard?
Use the command: /scoreboard objectives remove points
How do you test a player's score?
In Bedrock Edition, use /scoreboard players test. In Java Edition, this command was replaced by /execute if score, which tests the score before running another command.
Is it possible to change an objective's display name after it has been created?
In Java Edition yes, by using /scoreboard objectives modify <name> displayname. In Bedrock Edition this is not possible; you must remove the objective and create a new one with your desired name.
