Inserting a | custom datapack created by the Mojang developer boq into an official datapack such as the Caves and Cliffs Preview datapack allows for a player's head to be dropped when they die. The player must die in 18w44a, as the drop command that the datapack uses was renamed to loot after, and using it before then will result in an error. This will only drop the head of the player who was killed.
