Ok, they are two different games, and I also dont know why they are compared every now and then.

Combat= Terraria takes it -- definitely

Community Creativity (creations from fans)= Minecraft, 1. its more popular, 2. redstone + 3d enhances choices.

Amount of blocks/mobs = Terraria, definitely

Player Thinking and AI = Terraria, it has more events, and most are sudden so you have to act quick

Multiplayer = Minecraft

Overall = none wins :p. They're both different games. I usually switch moods between Terraria and Minecraft, and currently I'm in Terraria mood. Usually controlled by updates though.
