Lava would be nice to smelt huge bundles of resources for large projects, but for something small or practical, coal and blaze rods are more effective.

on the contrary, while u can't just make a 3x1 ditch or a 2x2 ditch and take infinite lava, if you just cause it to fall and spread in all directions you'll get about 4 new source blocks. it's not exactly like water yes, but the end result is the same.

NathanialJones:
Ate you sure those are SOURCE blocks? Can you pick them up+ you couldnt place the lava to make it drop any way.
I do like this idea though

Morrison1996:
the lava that falls down does not turn into source blocks. It may seem that way since it wont go away but it is a kind of bug. You can take try and pick it up all you want but you can't since it isn't source.

i suppose you're right, guess they changed it and i never noticed.

of course that doesn't change the fact that the nether is full of lava..... i'd just fill up a double chest worth of buckets and use them at my leisure.

would take about a year of everyone farming it to clear it all out

Making a 3x1 or a 2x2 would involve placing the lava so you cant do that. and....
