AITA For using someone’s trap against them and also killing them? (WAIT FOR CONTEXT PLEASE!)

Now before I tell you this story I need to provide some context. I (M) (you call me J) and many other people have been placed in these death games where your goal is to be the last one alive and every time we participated in another ‘game’ there would be something different about the game. This was the 6th time we were doing this ‘game’ thing and this time the special addition to games were these ‘wildcards’ that would happen every once in a while and they would change some aspect of the game while starting on 6 lives. For example, one wildcard was if we crouched we got smaller and if we jumped we got bigger, another was having an immortal snail follow us and if it touched we would die but those are irrelevant to this story.

(By the way if you're curious, when this ‘incident’ occurred the ‘wildcard’ was that everything sped up over time going from time being pretty much frozen to going really fast but that isn't very important)

So to the actual story, A couple friends we’ll call them Sc (M), L (F) and I/J (M) have decided to team up and there are also another team of 3 nearby us, we’ll call them G (M), M (M) Sk (M). At this point a few of us had lost a lot of lives and were almost eliminated from the game but we could get lives back for ourselves if we killed someone with 4/6 or more lives left. To do this the 3 other guys made this deadly contraption thing where a cart filled with explosive material was being spun around really fast and once launched would deal MASSIVE damage to a certain spot or to someone standing in a certain spot and this was benefited by the fact that guys had set this contraption high up on a mountain allowing them to more effectively kill someone without the person noticing. Now this is the part where I may have been a little bit of a betrayer because the guys had let me know about this contraption too, probably not expecting me to use it against them. So 2 of the guys were going down below the contraption to demonstrate where the cart would land and at this point the trap was set up and all someone had to do was pull a lever to send the cart down towards the ground/victims, as the guys stood at the spot where the cart with deadly explosives was supposedly going to land I saw an amazing opportunity to get a life back. The G guy had 5 lives and the M guy had 3, the 3rd guy (Sk) had 1 life and so did I. Once the 2 guys had been standing in the spot for a while, I pulled the lever. I waited a bit and BAM! Both of the guys were dead, I got a life back from it and I was the happiest I’d ever been in a while! Of course this action had its consequences, the entire team of those 3 hated me but at that point I didn't care I was just happy that I was able to pull that off.

I know what I did was wrong but then again, it's a death game and when you're close to being eliminated shouldn’t you take any opportunities that come your way especially if they come so easily? AITA?
