Louder than “iron golem” (~16k) on the same main-term list.
A main-term search comparison: copper golem vs iron golem vs ender dragon. Need the build steps? Use the copper golem FAQ. I’m not competing with the wiki recipe box here.
A mob that lost a public vote can still out-search older icons once it ships. Search heat is curiosity and how-to demand, not a “favorite boss” poll.

2. Debut timing (vote → ship)
- 2021-10-13. Announced as mob-vote candidate.
- 2021-10-16. Lost the final round (~45.7%).
- Java 1.21.9 (snapshot 25w31a). Added to the game as a chest-sorting golem.
- Bedrock. Experimental in 1.21.100, fully implemented in 1.21.111.
On these main terms, copper golem out-searches iron golem and the dragon. Lost the vote. Still won the search chart later.
How I calculated it
Volumes from my keyword list (Ahrefs-derived main terms, 2026-08-09). History: Minecraft Wiki Copper Golem. Ratios = 44000÷16000 and 44000÷19000.

Search volume is not the same as players who own the mob. These rows are not Google Trends scores. How-to variants (“how to make copper golem”) add more demand on top. I keep them out of this chart on purpose.
