Hi, in this thread I will showcase 2 bridgetraps I often use in Eggwars and which are pretty successfull.

Trap 1.

So this first trap is super simple and a lot of fun as you, the trapper actually detonates it.
I'll show the 2 pictures first:

Fase 2 Brug 1.png


As you can see it's really quite easy :D You just mine a hole in the bridge and place a block on the block behind the hole (on your side of the hole) and take a bit of distance, then, whenever a player jumps or is about to jump over the gap you place a block on the 1 high block you placed earlier, the jumper cant jump over 2 blocks unless he has a jumping potion so he'll fall down the hole. I use this method a lot and I can assure you that you'll get a great feeling of success when you complete the trap and you'll probably laugh too as it's really fun to pull this off.

I suggest putting the block in your offhand and a sword in your main hand to make it look like you want to fight the guy, if you just hold the block in your hand the opponent might get suspicious. Its also possible to make a little room on the side of the bridge so that the opponent will not be able to see you at all but you can still reach the block you need to place your block on. This is however a little harder to pull off as you will have to time the placing on your opponents nametag, instead of his player model.

You can also try to be really fast by not placing a block behind the gap but spamclick your mouse whenever your oppenent jumps, this however has more room to failure although it is waay cooler to pull off and your opponent won't expect it as much as he would with a block already being there.


Trap 2:

The second trap takes a little bit more time to set up but still works like a charm, and this time you dont even need to be around for it to work :D

Once again I will first explain the basic concept of the trap using images.

Seems like a lot of steps but this trap is really easy to make. You just dig a hole in a bridge and then place blocks on top of adjacent blocks and on top of the gap. Now you build a tunnel around the entire thing and you're good to go. Whenever a player walks into the tunnel he/she has to mine the bottom block to move forwards, the first time the player might be careful with mining the block but after that most players just rush through it, when they get to the gap they fall in :D

This trap works best if the opponent has a fast pickaxe because that makes it easier to run through the tunnel.

Tip: Extend the tunnel to the end of the bridge or at least a couple of blocks away from the part where you can't walk through so that players are in the tunnel already before they start mining. If they see that the tunnel is closed before they enter your opponent might just build up to the tunnel.

Tip 2: This trap works really good on the map City for some reason.


Thank you for reading :D Good luck trapping!

Although these traps are cool, they wouldn't work well on players with a decent amount of experience. I always follow people on a bridge JUST sprinting (not jumping), and as soon as they turn around I'd make a wall infront of me & then pillar up from where I'm standing so I can bypass any traps they may have planned on setting. This also works well to avoid being spleefed.
As for the tunnel one, most people (with experience) would go over the tunnel to avoid traps too.

I really like the amount of effort you put into this with all the armour stands, though! Good job!

Trap 1 is good, but trap 2 will only work against the worst players. Who doesn't shift when they're mining blocks on a bridge?
Surprisingly a lot of players don't xD most of them shift for 1 or blocks, but after they realise that there are solid blocks underneath they'll get impatient and rush through. I do prefer the first one too though as it's quicker to setup :D

Thanks! Yes if you've played for a while these traps won't work on you but there are a lot of players that will fall for it. At least 1 in every game I'd say.

The first one is pretty useful, I've used it myself a couple of times actually (it does work). The second one though I know won't work on as many players, since most players shift / sneak while mining: in case it'd be a trap, or just in case they'd accidentally walk too close to the edge. Nontheless, nice traps. ~

I use the trap 1 often, but you need good timing!

On diagonal bridges if you time placing 2 blocks adjacently, then they slide right off, and stack them even higher for the next person who tries to jump over it xD

That works really good when they are chasing you! Just look down, sprint-jump and spam those blocks all over :D
