Once they separated, Luke and Cervantez began setting up the traps they had purchased throughout their guardian rooms.
With their prior knowledge of the event, they had made sure to prepare well in advance, purchasing many traps in bulk.
Luke, in particular, felt like he had hit the jackpot as his lava room, with its limited maneuverability for his opponents, was the perfect place to lay traps.
He strategically placed explosives around the floating platforms where players would eventually land, as well as on various walls throughout the room, ready to be triggered when necessary, creating the perfect set-up to rattle his opponents.
Cervantez on the other hand, filled entire sections of his tunnel labyrinth with explosives and drew reference lines to mark safe zones.
His idea was to now lure his opponents into a tunnel section and blow it up, killing dozens of rankers at once.
