The Finals players have discovered ways to deceptively trick their enemies with fake ziplines and jump pads, resulting in chaos and unexpected squad wipes. This lethal strategy is making waves in The Finals meta, as the tricky fake jump-pad trap claims numerous unsuspecting victims.

The combat sandbox of The Finals encourages creative gameplay and rewards players for uncovering new strategies to gain a strategic advantage over their enemies. Players have found opportunities to exploit lengthy treks to objectives in Traversal, making opponents drop their guard.

One trick involves using jump pads to mislead unsuspecting enemies. Deploying a smaller player-made jump pad in front of an existing one meant to propel players across the map. Savvy players can cause their enemies to fall short of their intended landing spot, creating confusion and chaos. The small, easily overlooked jump pads add an element of surprise to the game, catching opponents off guard and resulting in unintentional plunges.

Another trick is to sabotage the zipline. The zipline may not be the most popular equipment in the game, but stealthy players found ways to manipulate it to their advantage. Tampering ziplines while opponents traverse them can sly players deceive enemies into zipping directly into it, which turns into a fatal journey.

The latest discovery was shared by a Reddit user. This deadly trick has already claimed many unaware players' lives, sparking excitement within The Finals community. While some celebrate the brilliance of the tactic, others acknowledge the potential for future patches to address these unconventional strategies in the pursuit of a balanced gameplay experience.

Despite the lack of in-game credit for executing these cunning stunts, the thrill of victory and the knowledge of having outplayed opponents prove to be reward enough for most players. As the meta in The Finals continues to shift, these devious tricks add an extra layer of unpredictability, keeping players and spectators on their toes.
