The Explosive Mine is a gadget available to the Medium and Heavy Builds.
Overview
Explosive Mines are lethal devices that can be placed anywhere and detonate when an opponent comes within close contact.
Uses & Interactions
The primary use for the mines is anti-personnel, and are surprisingly deadly when triggered by an enemy contestant. Furthermore, they have large blast radius and do moderate damage to surrounding buildings. When paired (2 mines), their destructive effect amplifies significantly.
Creative use of mines can lead to impromptu breaching charges, as the mines stick to whatever surface they are thrown onto, not just floors, but also walls, ceilings and other objects, afterwards you can manually shoot the mine for it to detonate and potentially destroy the wall. The premature detonation of mines can be used offensively as you can throw a mine near an enemy and shoot it to detonate it quicker making it more effective in an active battle
A maximum of two mines can be planted at the same time.
