Copper Golem vs Iron Golem: Which is better in Minecraft?
Minecraft has now officially announced the new Copper Golem for the game, which players can craft. With this, the game will now soon have three different types of golems. Initially the copper golem was introduced as a mob vote candidate that lost to allay, and now the copper golem is making its way back to the game.
The Copper Golem will soon be released with the fall game drop of Minecraft.
Difference between
Iron Golem
and Copper Golem
The very basic difference between the Copper Golem and the Iron Golem is the appearance; both golems look different and also have various purposes to serve. The only thing they have in common is that they help players to survive in the game.
Key difference between Iron and Copper Golems:
1. Crafting recipe:

Iron Golem:
To craft an Iron Golem, players need to place 4 iron blocks, 1 on the ground and 3 horizontally placed on top of it. Then players need to place a pumpkin mask on top and in the middle of the iron blocks. Apart from this, iron golems also can spawn naturally when there are villagers nearby; they spawn to protect these villagers from mobs.
Copper Golem:
Like iron golems, the Copper Golems cannot naturally spawn; they can only be crafted by players. In order to create a Copper Golem player, you need to place a copper block onto the ground and place a pumpkin mask above it.
2. Purpose of both the Golems:
Iron Golem
: The sole purpose of the Iron Golem is to protect the players and villagers in Minecraft from various kinds of mobs attacking. But players need to understand that the witches who were naturally spawned will not protect them and will only protect the villagers. For personal protection, the Iron Golem needs to be crafted by players.
Copper Golem
: It is a new mob that will soon be released to Minecraft. The Copper Golem is a very peaceful mob, and the sole purpose of the Copper Golem is to sort items that players drop in the copper chest. When players drop random items in a copper chest, the Copper Golem picks those items up, up to 16 stacks at a time, and transfers them to either empty chests or chests containing similar items.
3. Appearance:
Both the Golems are different in appearance. Since the Copper Golem is only made with a single block, it naturally looks quite small and stubby, while on the other hand, the Iron Golem has a huge appearance. The Copper Golem has a glowing yellow light and a lightning rod on its head.
These were the basic differences between Copper and Iron Golems, but still, both have a single purpose of helping the players.

Divya Deshmukh's emergence and Koneru Humpy's resurgence: 2 takeaways for Indian chess evident at FIDE World Cup
The two India vs China semifinals — Koneru Humpy vs Lei Tingjie and Divya Deshmukh vs Tan Zhongyi — ended in contrasting draws on Tuesday at the FIDE Women's World Cup. Both contests are evenly poised heading into the second day of the two-game battle at Batumi. While Divya's draw was short and quick, Humpy pulled out a new trick from her hat to unsettle her opponent before settling for a draw. Such are the high standards that Indians set for themselves; even a draw against the world's best is now unimpressive in their own eyes as was evident from Divya's body language. Asked by FIDE if she was happy, particularly since she had the black pieces, Divya only offered: 'It's okay, I guess.' 'It was quite a short draw, so I don't really have many thoughts about the game,' shrugged the 19-year-old, who's yet to become a GM, after going toe-to-toe and holding her own against a player who was the women's world champion eight years ago. In the three previous games between the pair, the veteran Tan has won twice with Divya salvaging a draw in the final battle. Ask GM Abhijit Kunte, who has seen Divya's rapid rise from close quarters, what that unimpressed reply says about Divya's mindset, and he says: 'In these kinds of mini-matches (games of two), you don't express anything. Because any positive or negative expression is bad for you. You have to remain neutral. And this kind of maturity at 19 is not easy to get. It's very rare.' Kunte, who was the captain of the all-conquering Indian's women's team at the Chess Olympiad last year where Divya was one of the stars, traces her lightning-quick journey to the top: 'Just last year, Divya was a world junior champion. She has always been very brave, someone never afraid to experiment. But she had very limited exposure to the top brass of women's chess. Then she played at the Olympiad last year. This year, she's played in the FIDE Grand Prix events, which has helped immensely.' So far, Divya has had a barnstorming FIDE World Cup, taking down the veteran grandmaster Harika Dronavalli in the quarters, and World No 6 Zhu Jiner in the previous two rounds. Divya has also shown other stand-out attributes on the board. GM Shyamsundar Mohanraj, who is the head of delegation for the Indian team in Batumi and has given the country its last two GMs, points at her victory over the veteran Harika Dronavalli in the previous round via tiebreaks. ❓Who's your pick for the finals? Game 1 of the semifinals was played today — and both ended in draws! 🇨🇳 Lei Tingjie ½–½ Humpy Koneru 🇮🇳 🇨🇳 Tan Zhongyi ½–½ Divya Deshmukh 🇮🇳 #FIDEWorldCup — International Chess Federation (@FIDE_chess) July 22, 2025 'I say this as an outsider, but Divya's endgame skills and her defensive skills have improved quite a lot in a very short span of time. In the first game against Harika of the tiebreaks, she played dynamic chess to win. But if you look at the second game, she defended very well in a minus position (a position where she had a disadvantage). In Game 2 of the tie-breaks, Divya defended very well despite being low on time. She was barely playing with seconds on the clock, and Harika had like 4-5 minutes. There was pressure because Divya was in a don't-lose situation,' says Shyamsundar. At the other end of the spectrum is the veteran Humpy, who has already accounted for Alexandra Kosteniuk, one of the strongest players in the field, and the up-and-coming Chinese prodigy Song Yuxin. While Divya has stunned higher-rated opponents to script a fairytale story already, Humpy has been clinical: only once in the event has she needed tiebreaks to beat her opponent. In the first game of the semi-final against Lei on Tuesday, Humpy played the Berlin Defence, which she has rarely employed over the course of her lengthy career. In fact, one of the only times she's played it was against Kosteniuk in the previous rounds. On Tuesday, it had the desired effect; it forced Lei to think for about 10 minutes after 4… Ne7, a well-known trap door. 'Three years back, I thought Humpy looked like she was on the verge of quitting. But in the last year, she has come back so strongly. Winning a medal at the World Rapid Championship, then being among the top places in the Women's Grand Prix. Her game is also very positive now: she doesn't agree to quick draws. At this age, many people try to make some quick draws and win some easy games and try to finish in the top. But she's fighting it out. That shows her positive attitude and aggression. It's like seeing a very young Humpy again,' says Kunte before adding with a smile: 'I think Humpy is trying to match Divya's age. And Divya is trying to match Humpy's experience and maturity.' What makes Humpy's resurgence and Divya's emergence at the FIDE World Cup even more remarkable, points out GM Shyamsundar, is how tricky the World Cup is for any player, thanks to the treacherous format of two head-to-head battles and then tiebreaks if needed. 'The format is quite intense and very exhausting for the players. It's a best-of-2 battle. It's a dangerous format in a way and tricky. It's not like other Swiss tournaments (where you don't get eliminated) where even if you lose, you have an extra game to come back. But here, it's not like that. You never know when you will be leaving the tournament,' says Shyamsundar from Batumi. Besides Humpy's resurgence and Divya's emergence, there have been other moments to cheer for Indian chess in Batumi. Like Vantika Agrawal taking down former women's world champion Anna Ushenina. Or four Indians making it to the quarters (R Vaishali and Harika beside Humpy and Divya). He looks at the Indian players' performances and predicts a golden era like the one that men's chess is seeing in India. 'In India, despite the population, we have only had three women who have become GMs. But after seeing the results of these two players from different eras at the World Cup, players of any age in India will get inspired. This will definitely inspire and motivate many women players to take up sports,' says Shyamsundar. Amit Kamath is Assistant Editor at The Indian Express and is based in Mumbai. ... Read More

Peps Industries' new campaign asks India to ditch bad mattresses
Peps Industries , India's spring mattress brand, has launched its latest campaign 'Some Breakups are necessary' to raise awareness among customers to upgrade their mattresses on a timely basis. Staying true to its reputation for combining storytelling and science, the brand has rolled out a witty, relatable film that captures the emotional toll of poor-quality mattresses, positioning spring mattresses as the long-term solution. The multilingual series focuses on helping Indian consumers realise one simple truth: if your mattress isn't supporting you, it's time to move on. Peps' Pan-India campaign '#Some Breakups are necessary'' features three ad films centered around a "breakup" narrative with old mattresses. The first series shows a woman voicing her frustration in what seems like a breakup conversation with her partner only to reveal, in a surprising twist, that she's addressing her old, unsupportive mattress. This highlights the issue of false comfort claims in the industry. The second series released today continues this theme, which will be followed by 'Sorry, But Not Sorry," to be released next week. Characters in these ads amusingly explain why they're "leaving" their old mattresses, whether due to outgrowing their comfort or finding better sleep elsewhere. Together, these ads cleverly use relatable relationship tropes to urge consumers to upgrade to a Peps mattress for genuine support. The Peps campaign continues to bust myths about coir and foam mattresses through simple narratives that connect emotionally. By narrating that Spring is King, Peps repositions Spring mattress range, which is powered by advanced features like the Marvellous Middle Advantage and Zero Disturbance Technology, as the true ally in delivering deep, undisturbed sleep and full-body support. In an age where sleep is often sacrificed and misunderstood, this new campaign brings attention back to the real hero of rest: a well-engineered mattress. From supporting spinal health to adapting to every curve of the body, Peps Spring Mattresses address everyday consumer frustrations while promising consistent sleep quality and no more partner disturbances, sagging. G. Shankar Ramm , managing director and co-founder, Peps Industries, speaking about the campaign, said, 'At Peps, we've always believed that sleep is personal and non-negotiable. Unfortunately, many people don't realise how much their mattress affects their physical and mental well-being. Our new campaign reminds them, humorously and honestly, that if your mattress isn't supporting you, it's time to say goodbye. For Indian sleepers, Spring is still king.' The campaign was conceptualised by Brand Consultant Renuka Jaypal in collaboration with South-based filmmaker duo Athreya Arabbhi and Avinash Hariharan. Renuka Jaypal, brand director, said, 'We wanted to dramatise a universal frustration: staying stuck with something that no longer serves you. And that's where we came up with this relatable messaging to the audience' Launched across Hindi, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam, the ads are currently live on Peps' official digital platforms including YouTube and Instagram.
