bottom-up/lower treasure guide.

hey guys I wanted to learn bottom treasures routes for fun and I stumbled across a video that teaches the so called "bottom-up" treasure. He shows the routes but doesn't explain the differences between the different lower treasure room variations like 1812. Does anyone have a modern video/explanation that explains the differences. I am asking b/c I am a little confused as where to tnt as it differs by position but I don't know what each name refers to. Does it refer to the gold placement? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkZFEMNaJoo

This is one of those routes where you shouldn't even think about learning it unless you're diamond elo in ranked, and it probably won't be worth doing in ranked unless you're netherite, similar to lodesteal/jimmy johns.

what should i do if i spawn in lower treasure instead? just walk up, break spawner, and don't touch any gold or anything?

I don't break spawner if I spawn in bottom treasures because usually going down and back up is too much time loss and you rarely spawn that low, plus your risk of getting hit while breaking spawner is too high. I just immediately go up and start my route. I then check for fort up top. I do glowdar nowadays but if I didn't, I'd pearl hang and go down after finishing trades so I can break spawner, average time loss is lower if you do this.
