SypherPK hopes Fortnite traps return in Season 6, but with some changes Epic Games \/ SypherPKSypherPK was once known as the trap king in Fortnite, and although he understands why they were vaulted, he hopes they\u2019ll return in Chapter 2, Season 6 with some changes. Traps once played an essential role in Fortnite. They were a creative, innovative, and versatile tool, and before they were nerfed and eventually vaulted, they dealt an absurd amount of damage. However, it\u2019s hard to find someone who used them better than Ali \u2018SypherPK\u2019 Hassan. Formerly known as the trap king, he would find all these incredible and crazy ways to eliminate players using traps. Still, even though they were his speciality, he understood more than anyone why they needed to be vaulted. However, as Season 5 wears on, Hassan explained that he doesn\u2019t want them gone forever and hopes they\u2019ll return to the game but with some changes. \u201cI loved using [traps], especially because when a player wants to rush into your box without thinking, you can throw [one] down, and they\u2019ll run into it,\u201d he said. \u201cYou\u2019ll get a really easy quick elimination.\u201d \u201cBut it started becoming a problem,\u201d he added. \u201cPeople would panic and throw a bunch of traps down, and [they] did a lot of damage. Before they got vaulted, they were doing 150 damage.\u201d \u201cAnother problem [was], let\u2019s say you got somebody weak, and they immediately threw down a trap before they died,\u201d he said. \u201cEven though you got the kill, you end up walking into their trap and dying or being severely hurt, and you feel kind of cheated.\u201d \u201cSo even though it was my all-time favorite weapon\u2026 a lot of times, it was just a spam fest,\u201d he said. \u201cEspecially once they implemented auto trap placement, which made it very cheesy. Overall it was way too powerful and caused a lot of frustration.\u201d \u201cI really do hope they eventually come back. I do miss trapping people. It was one of my favorite things to do in Fortnite. [However], if [they] were to return, [players should need to] place the wall then place the trap. Also, if [they] end up dying, [the] trap should be disabled. SypherPK knows Fortnite like the back of his hand, which makes him the perfect person to comment on these issues. His ideas on how to make traps less overpowered seem reasonable. Only time will tell whether Epic Games decides to give them a test run once again. However, it could be an ace up their sleeve and an excellent way to turn the meta upside down if it ever needs it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
