Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

Mirror Block / Mirror World OMG!!

A MIRROR BLOCK could be a reflective block that does not have a boarder when connected to other mirror blocks. Adding a feature that the player could somehow turn it into a portal to another world... not the end, not the neither, maybe something new, and when the player activates the portal feature it liquifies the the mirror surface and gives it a slight ripple that is amplified when the player walks through the portal. The mirror world could be a world that is a mirror image of the base world. Good mobs would be evil, evil mobs would be good? Changes in the base world are reflected in the mirror world. Blocks are different in "MW" dirt in "MW" could be stone in "BW" and vice versa. Build a stone home in "BW" and its a dirt home in "MW" 

Items that are crafted in the mirror world and placed in a frame or a chest or something cross over into the base world but now they have some special new perk, also crafting in the mirror world would somehow be more challenging than in base word. items created in mirror world cannot cross through mirror portals, they return to the normal version of itself without said "perk" they can only be crafted and placed in a special chest or frame (which would come with its own challenges to craft), that would transfer the "perked" item between worlds.

    Some of the blocked placed in the mirror world could reflect in the base world differently, say if you placed water in the mirror world it would reflect as lava in the base world, yet when you place water in the base world it will still reflect as water in the mirror world, making players have to think about their actions both in story mode and creator mode in order to solve puzzles and also create builds that involve the dynamics of both worlds... 
    There could be accompanying blocks that could act as shields from this effect, possibly a block that only appears in the "MW" (replaces diamond blocks in MW), that you use in the build to create a parameter that is not affected by the mirror effect when built in the MW, ie water placed in the parameter in MW will be water in BW, and when the block is used in the BW it will add the mirror effect the the builds built in the BW to the MW (Water placed in the parameter in BW will reflect as lava in MW), adding a complex dynamic to possible builds. This could add a new level of redstone dynamics that is beyond my ability to come up with. I'll leave that to the professionals lol. 

    The MW could be a place to use different dynamics/physics that have not been put in to the game because of continuity issues... Maybe its like "Wonderland" over there (Mirror World), and things are just a little bit different...

    Possibly a new set of mobs??

    This could be called
    "A Time to Reflect"

    Anyways, that's my take on a mirror block. Please add any ideas that this may have inspired. It would be amazing to see something like this come to lite.
