never trust your "teammate"

This is Sharpness, and he's my greatest enemy. He's the best PvPer on the Strength SMP, and is responsible for more than half of my deaths. And honestly, I don't really blame him for killing me so much, considering the horrible things I've done to him. But what if we weren't enemies?

What if we teamed up? It seems like that question crossed both our minds, because honestly, we would be unstoppable. Although Sharpness lacks a brain, he can swing a sword really, really well. And with the combined power of good PvP and good traps, we could take on literally anybody in the server. So, here's the plan.

Sharpness would grind trapping resources for me, help me fight other teams, and train me to become a better PvPer. In exchange for these services, I would build traps for him to use on his own. That way he could get some trapping kills for himself without my help. But the most important part of this team up is the fact that I actually have a teammate I can use as bait. Most of the traps I've used on Strength SMP are solo traps, meaning I have to be the bait

and the puller. But since Sharpness is on my team, he can be the bait, and I can be the puller, meaning I can unleash a whole new arsenal of massive traps on the server. And I don't want to spoil the video, but holy shit we pulled off some insane stuff together. But before we get into any of that, I gotta hold up my end of the deal, and show sharpness where a bunch of my traps are, so if he gets jumped, he would be able to try and use them for himself. Alright, follow me. Alright, let's go.

Here? No, what?

You made one here?

Yeah. I got you at the start of the server with one of these, I can know.

No, you did not, bro. That was not me. Bro, you can't trap me that much like you think you can, bro. I can trap you whenever I want, Sharpness. No, you cannot.

I could've trapped you 30 seconds ago I could have trapped you 30 seconds ago That's a ladder This trap right here. Oh my god. You were following me. I got you. I got you. I got you I didn't know you were following me. I'm sorry That wasn't even my fault I I was showing you where it was and you just happened to follow me up there. I'm sorry.

Oh, okay. The next one is pretty far. Pretty far, pretty far. Right here. And after showing him where a few more traps were, I decided to log off for the night. And when I woke up the next morning, I got a DM from sharpness while I was offline He got jumped and got an opportunity to try and use one of my traps

Got one I'm the best I'm the best I'm the best what what do you mean you got one? Oh

You're trapped. Yeah Got one? I'm the best, I'm the best, I'm the best. What? What do you mean you got one? Oh you trapped it?

Yeah.

What's up? I'm J-Blow! I'm J-Blow baby!

Now this was more than just a trap kill. This was proof that Sharpness was good bait, and this clip gave me so much confidence that Sharpness would be able to perform under pressure, so I got to work on a giant 9x9 sand trap. That way, if Sharpness was ever in an outnumbered fight, all he would have to do is fight over the sand trap. That way, when I pull it, everyone falls in, and me and Sharpness are easily able to knock them into the kill holes and then drop some dripstone to finish the job. Now all I had to do was wait for something to happen, and after hours of sitting afk in my own trap, Sharpness finally joined my call and gave me some good news.

A player named CoSy was about to get attacked, so Sharpness went over there, knowing that it would turn into a 2v1 against him, which is exactly what we want. And sure enough, a fight broke out. Sharpness was 1v1ing Swizu and was absolutely shitting on him. And because he was losing, he called shark kills over, turning this fight into a 1v2.

Hello there.

Oh, the 3v1. I knew it.

But this is exactly what we wanted. Now all Sharpness had to do was run.

Okay, run, run. B.

I can't believe it.

Oh my god, they're here.

What do you say if you had a trap?

After baiting for over a thousand blocks, Sharpness was now inches away from the trap. All he had to do was make a run for it. Keep going for it. He has a disability. for it. Sharpness choked, just inches away from the trap. And although I was disappointed, I wasn't gonna let this trap go to waste. I decided I was gonna try and solo bait this trap, since Sharpness proved to be unreliable.

So when I left my base and saw a massive team fight in the distance, I decided to go try and annoy someone to the point where they would chase me. But as I pulled up, I realized something. This wasn't a team fight this was an execution. Alright shark I'm sorry you're on your own now I'm leaving.

Wow!

Wow! Wow!

Leo?

Leo?

What's up Julo?

You do not want to go over there!

They're killing everybody!

Wait wait wait did Julo drop his mace? And that's when I realized this wasn't a 4v1, this was a 5v1 and I was about to be the next target since I had a mace, cause there's this giant team of goonballs ganking anybody that has a mace on them. Okay, I'm on him WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE ON HIM?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN?! Oh, it's okay, Leo Come chase me, see what happens Come chase me, see what happens

This was no longer about getting a sneaky drop kill This was about surviving Alright guys, this is just crazy Like, really?

The master trapper, bro

I dropped my- you guys are just a bunch of liars

That's what you are

Whatever, bro That's what you are. Whatever bro.

What?

Okay, I killed one. With Dolphin trapped in something blue dead, I decided to dig away before the rest of the team pulled up. And as I dug away to avoid confrontation, I've realized something. I need to get good at PvP. Cause if I run away from every fight, people are gonna anticipate my traps.

And this is where Sharpness can actually help me for once. If he teaches me how to PvP, I'm truly unstoppable.

Alright guys, unfortunately the audio for this lesson got fucked. can actually help me for once. If he teaches me how to pvp, I'm truly unstoppable.

Alright guys, unfortunately the audio for this lesson got fucked. OH MY GOD THAT'S SO HELPFUL. OKAY OKAY. So I'm just gonna commentate over it. The first thing sharpness taught me was how to reset someone's auto crit ability. On the strength SMP, there's tons of different weapon attacks, and one of them is the sword. If you combo someone with the sword, you start automatically critting them, even on regular hits. But if you get hit by a wind charge, you lose that combo. The next thing he taught me was the importance of attribute swapping. You can easily disable someone's shield by swinging with your sword and then switching to your axe. That way,

if they don't put their shield up, you still hit them for full damage, and if they do, they lose their shield. And after hours of practicing my new techniques, I was actually able to beat sharpness a few times in pvp. Now I felt like I was ready. I was ready to take on an actual fight on the strength SMP and not use any traps at all Mean sharpness, we're gonna go wreak havoc But as we picked out our first fight we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into

Fuckin we ball It's funny, that's what it is.

Oh kill him!

What is that? Why is he blue? Oh my god, they hurt. He's wasting all of our healing. Oh!

Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh

Nubus nubus nubus nubus nubus jumping in nubus jumping in Easy easy, it's just too easy. It's just too easy Oh my god, I'm so good at this. I'm so good at this. I'm so good at this. I'm so good at this. I'm so good at this. I'm so good at this.

I'm so good at this.

I'm so good at this. This is literally a 2v8

No

Just fucking kobe the hell spotted you I fucking real I kobe the hell spotted you nah, fuck you luigi

You tried to kill my boy? Zombie, zombie, zombie

He's so dead

Go go go, chase

Dude, I'm stuck in a fucking block

I might be in trouble, hold on

Nice, he's dead, he's so dead I webbed right at you, yep, good job

Let's go dude!

Good job, good job, good job

Dude, you're insane We just survived like a 30v10, bro After shitting on the entire server, me and Sharpness were rich, but we wanted more, and the perfect opportunity was delivered right onto our plates. There was a 2v2 tournament being hosted on the Strength SMP, and it was being hosted in this coliseum right here, which gave me a devious idea. What if I waited until everyone logged off, and then secretly built a gigantic 8x8 trap

in the arena? That way when we were fighting in the tournament, we could have someone from the crowd sneak away and sneak into the trap, then pull the trap when an enemy was over it. And I had the perfect candidate, Parker. Parker recently got added to the SMP, so I made a deal with him. I would let him live in my base, and I would give him gear on the terms that he would help me in sharpness

trap players. And of course, he agreed. So at 1 in the morning when no one was online, we logged on and got to work on the 8x8 trap inside of the Coliseum. And after 3 hours of building, it was done. We were ready. The plan was simple, Parker was going to pull the lever when he saw both of their name tags above the trap. But there was an issue.

Who's this?

They're invis-ing.

Oh. But unfortunately for us, our opponents decided to use invis. So I quickly told Parker the code word to pull the trap.

I think we're ready.

Yeah, we got this, we got this. were to pull I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. Don't worry

Don't try don't get me. Oh, what's up with your axe? Oh my god. I got you dude. I'll put it you

Help me. Help me. Help me. Nice. Okay, go go go go

Go I win shot. I got him, I got him! I got him!

I'm here, Parker.

We got this. They can-

Bro, what the fuck? Did I trap you on accident? Yeah, so it turns out I hit the wrong guy in because of the invisibility. And Dolphin just course rooted out. But Sharpness taught me how to PVP, so we could still win. We advanced to the second round. Got him! Oh no he didn't! Got him! Huge! He's nice!

Oh my god that was beautiful!

Woo!

Good job! We advanced to the second round. If neither of us choked, we had this in the bag. And if I was ever getting fucked up, I could run away and place a pressure plate, causing them to back off. Trap right there! Trap right there! Trap right here! Trap right here! If I was ever getting fucked up, I can win this.

With Sharpness dead, there wasn't much I could do. But the thing is, they wouldn't come kill me. They were too afraid. Look at this, look at this, they're scared of me. They can't fight me.

They can't fight me.

Is this a forfeit? What do you guys think? Is this a forfeit?

Is this a forfeit?

They won't fight me.

They are too scared! This is a forfeit!

This is a forfeit!

I'm kidding, I'm very scared.

This is a forfeit, bro. This is a forfeit. If they won't fight me, this is a forfeit.

Careful, careful. Stay away, stay away, stay away.

Look at this! This is a forfeit! This is a forfeit! He's going into his own trap.

He can run, he loses, so it doesn't matter.

P to the U to the S to the Y.

That's, oh wait, that's not, oh nevermind.

But yeah, he was lowkey right. I was being a gigantic pussy by hiding. So I decided to just go die like a man. I'm just gonna go die, I'm gonna go die like a man.

That's my team mate, that's my duo, that's my boy. I'm just gonna go down. I'm gonna go die like a man

But it seems that fate had other plans

Because as I was spectating the event something happened a player dropped out of the 1v1 tournament, and I jumped at the opportunity and entered myself in. I wasn't gonna use any traps, so this 1v1 tournament would truly be a test to Sharpness's training. Good luck, fella. It's no... it's nothing personal. Dude No dude What the...

What the...

Sharp skills man Oh my god, dude, you're the GOAT! Oh no Danny!

Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, Oh no Danny! Squeeze! Squeeze! Squeeze! Squeeze! Squeeze!

Squeeze!

Squeeze!

Squeeze! Squeeze! Squeeze! Squeeze! Squeeze! against none other than Swizu, the player who had eliminated me earlier. I wasn't about to let sharpness down. This is where I proved myself as a good PvPer. Oh Oh my god. Oh, oh, you're up to fight, yo. Oh my fucking god I'm nervous bro Don't be I had done it. Using Sharpness's training, I won the 1v1 tournament. Now this seems like a good spot to end the video, but I'm not going to do that. Because honestly, me and Sharpness have still not really trapped anybody.

Sure we trapped people individually, but every time we were close to achieving something cool, Sharpness would choke and ruin it. But now that Parker was on the server, we could give it one last try. Me and Parker spent a couple hours building a 6x6 trap in the middle of nowhere, and Parker would be on a lever pull this time. That way, me and Sharpness can bait together. And now, it's finally time to get the perfect trapping clip. And my audio got fucked again. God damn it. Okay, well I guess I'll just use some of his POV and some of my POV. Let's do this. HE'S FLANKING I have nothing. Get out of here Spongs! Yo I need to know what you're doing.

Spongs is swinging at me! I just killed Spongs.

Nice!

Hold up for a sec I know I got new I got new We We had done it, and honestly, it was all thanks to Sharpness. He baited the trap perfectly, causing both players to get trapped in the same pool. Now this really upped my confidence for him, so I decided to show him a few more of my traps. for me. Sharpness had other plans. This one I mean I feel like this is in a good spot because it's like by the water so it's not really you can't really expect it.

Oh yeah yeah yeah.

Yeah this is so this is such a good spot.

Yeah.

They'll never know. You can be running towards the water and then it's like bang.

Oh oh shit!

Oh!

Oh!

I swear to god dude you always do this shit.

No! I swear to God did you always do this? Oh?

Move oh my God. I'm sorry no stop

I I don't I don't know how that keeps happening, but look there's more row like

So there's a secret button do you see it? Oh?

What is that? Oh? there's a secret button do you see it? oh what does that do? oh! back up trap

also I didn't even put armor stands in there

just so you know

oh my god

so yeah once you if you get someone with this

oh my god

they have back up

well it's kinda oh wait there's more?

well I mean if you trap someone with that you gotta go down here and kill them obviously right?

oh yeah yeah yeah that yeah, that's true, that's true. Okay, but.

I need to add armor stands to that still.

Oh my, all right, but.

Wait, what does this do?

Oh, fuck, goddammit. Now I've gotta redo this.

That's what pushes them in.

Really?

Oh shit.

Do you have more? I think I low key. And as I slowly fall into my own backup trap, I thought to myself, why? Why would Sharpness do this? Why would I willingly stand above my own backup trap? Well, maybe because I knew this was gonna happen.

Why would you do this?

Why? Why would you do this?

Sharpness, why, bro?

It's over.

Why would you think I'm that stupid?

Wait, what?

No! No! No!

No way! Dude! no no no I knew it this snake ass was trying to betray me oh my god thank God Thank God! Thank God! I fucking knew I- oh.

There is no way. Oh my god and it worked. HOO! His ass was trying to betray me this whole time? Really? That's right, the whole thing was a test. I stood above the backup trap intentionally because I wanted to see if Sharpness would use the opportunity to betray me, and he did, which is why I set up a calibrated skulk sensor inside of the wall which detects one sound and one sound only, the swapping of armor. inside of the wall which detects one sound and one sound only, the swapping of armor.

So even though I was inside of my own trap, I could activate it through the wall as he
