I think it would be incredible and extremely fun to play in a skyland map, where you could fall out of the world without being careful, scale down the sides and under floating islands to retrieve chests, and have many fun parkour challenges to get around. There would be a more fun and challenging PvP as you would have to watch where you are standing, and you would also have to go over greater risks to get chests. The idea would be that the chests would be in houses, and towers scattered around the island, but the masses of them would be underneath the floating islands, which you would have to get to by broken bridges, gaps and protrusions in the sides of the island to parkour down, and take waterfalls to the bottom. It would be a great environment as there are still caves, forests, lakes, but all floating in the sky with the danger of falling into nothing always looming over your head...

I'm currently working on something like that but I don't put chests at the edges and I keep the parkour that is above the void down or else there will be less PvP, which is my favourite part about the survival games.

This would make bows and fishing poles better than diamond swords. Not sure if like...

Bows are already better than diamond swords in damage, so people still use them. Everyone uses fishing poles as a long range weapon if they don't have a bow, so not much will change.

I meant for pushing/pulling people off sides of the world

I know what you mean, I was just saying that bows and fishing rods are already commonly used. And this can be done on all maps, you fishing rod/bow them into a lava pit or something.
