In my minecraft map, I have a scoreboard, mainvars, that I made by running /scoreboard objectives add mainvars dummy, that has 1 player called var I made by running /scoreboard add players var mainvars 5.

I tried to test if var = 5 with /testfor var[score_mainvars=5], but it doesn't work.

EDIT:but /testfor @p[score_mainvars=5] works? I'm confused. Any help?

You cannot use a player's name in place of an @ selector. If you want to test for someone with a certain name, use the name argument:

/testfor @a[name=var,score_mainvars=5]

Keep in mind that @a selects player entities that exist somewhere in the world, not every single possible username. e.i. this will only work if there is actually a player called "var" currently on the world.

If you're wanting to test for a scoreboard objective value, rather than an online player, then you should use the /scoreboard players test command. The syntax is:

/scoreboard players test <player> <objective> <min> <max>

Scoreboard assigns the value of a variable to each and every player. Take for eg- There is a variable called money. Now, it has no central value corresponding to the game, but it has a unique value for each and every player. And hence what you wrote later was correct.
