Anub1ss rules DM-Cath with a crushing Ultra Kill finish

hemeroid opened the scoring, but after the match's only lead change Anub1ss turned DM-Cath into an 85-second display of control before adding a ruthless finish.

DM-Cath needed only eleven seconds for its first verdict: hemeroid hit Trajbalajka with the Stinger and claimed first blood. The opening lead did not live long. At 0:24 Anub1ss answered with a Rocket Launcher kill on hemeroid, tying the score at 1:1, and at 0:35 he hit Trajbalajka with the Ultra Instagib Rifle to move ahead 2:1. That was the only lead change of the entire match. Behind him the exchanges stayed violent, with revenge kills, multikills and constant pressure, but first place never changed hands again. In 224 seconds, a fast Deathmatch became a precise run toward the 30-point goal.

First blood, a rocket and the only change at the top

hemeroid started exactly as an early leader would want: at 0:11 he sent Trajbalajka to respawn with the Stinger and put 1:0 on the board. Then came the longest quiet stretch of the match. It lasted thirteen seconds and ended at 0:24, when Anub1ss dropped hemeroid from just 0.9 meters with the Rocket Launcher. The leaders were level, and it was also the final appearance of a weapon other than the Ultra Instagib Rifle.

At 0:35 Anub1ss hit Trajbalajka from 26.3 meters and took a 2:1 lead. The recorded lead_changes value is one, so this frag was the definitive flip at the top. Trajbalajka, hemeroid and Jano all scored in the seconds that followed, and Jano even completed a Double Kill at 0:56, but Anub1ss kept answering before the chase could become a real attack on first place.

Eleven kills without dying: the gap takes shape

Anub1ss's kill on hemeroid at 0:24 was more than an equalizer. It started the longest spree of the match: eleven kills without a death, stretching all the way to 1:49. During that run Anub1ss repeatedly found Trajbalajka, reached 11 points by 1:43 and built a margin nobody managed to close. At 1:31 he added a Double Kill against hemeroid. His average life lasted 22 seconds, the best among the active players, and that ability to stay alive gave his scoring pace unusual stability.

Jano finally stopped the spree at 1:49 with an Ultra Instagib Rifle shot from 25.9 meters. It mattered symbolically too: Jano recorded four revenge kills and repeatedly punished Anub1ss after he gained momentum. Ten seconds later hemeroid also killed the leader. Then, from 1:59 to 2:02, hemeroid produced his own three-kill burst, ending with a headshot on Jano and a Multi Kill. The race for second place suddenly became much hotter.

The third minute: 21 kills and no time to think

The 2:00-2:59 segment was the busiest of the match: 21 kills landed there, after 10 in the first minute and 14 in the second. Trajbalajka shot hemeroid from 50.1 meters at 2:05, Jano linked kills on hemeroid and Anub1ss at 2:17 and 2:19 for a Double Kill, and Anub1ss immediately began stacking pairs again. The pace became a carousel in which the challengers' scores moved one point at a time while the leader protected a double-digit cushion.

At 2:49 came hemeroid's long-range signature: a 53.8-meter hit on Trajbalajka. It was the longest kill of the match and part of a Double Kill. Interestingly, Trajbalajka had the highest average distance on his own kills at 26.4 meters; Anub1ss averaged 21.5, hemeroid 20.7 and Jano 19.2. These fights were not only point-blank chaos — the rifle also decided exchanges across longer corridors and open sightlines.

From 20:10 to thirty: a finish with no brakes

Anub1ss reached 20 points at 3:02, and in the final incomplete minute the 30-point target was much closer than any realistic change of winner. Trajbalajka still assembled a Double Kill at 3:03 and 3:05, hemeroid held second place, and at 3:24 Jano dropped Anub1ss after the leader's four-frag sequence had reached Mega Kill level. Anub1ss returned with the hardest response of the night.

From 3:35 came five Anub1ss kills in eight seconds: Trajbalajka, Jano, hemeroid, Trajbalajka again, and finally Jano. The multikill escalated from Double Kill through Multi and Mega to an Ultra Kill at 3:43. The final 39.3-meter shot set the scoreboard at 30:13:11:10. Anub1ss closed the match not only with the win but with the highest multikill level, four, exactly on the goal score.

DM-Cath ended after 224 seconds with a lopsided score, but the route there was anything but sterile. hemeroid took first blood, Jano ended the longest spree, Trajbalajka owned the highest average kill distance, and the third minute turned the server into a conveyor belt of respawns. The difference was Anub1ss's ability to turn chaos into uninterrupted blocks of scoring: the 11-kill spree created the gap and the final five-kill rush converted it into a 30:13 result. When the last Ultra Instagib Rifle shot caught Jano at 3:43, there was nothing left to calculate.
