Jack-in-the-Box

From the Information codex

Cursed toy boxes slam down among the players while a music box plays. When the tune ends they POP in a blast, and the grinning jacks lunge at the nearest player along marked lanes.

How to survive it

Watch for the warning markers before it lands, keep moving between plates, and don't stand where the trajectory lines cross. In Hardcore rounds the warnings are switched off.
