Blood Money without a turn: hemeroid takes thirty frags

hemeroid opened the scoring after five seconds and never lent the lead to anyone.

Blood Money made it clear from the opening seconds that UltraInstagib had no time for formalities. Flakjack opened the log after three seconds with a self-inflicted minus point, but the first blood came at 5 seconds: hemeroid hit Jano with the Ultra Instagib Rifle from 11.1 meters. That started a match in which the top of the table never changed hands once. hemeroid built his margin steadily, while Jano and Trajbalajka fought to stay in contact and GabrielLove reminded the leader that comfort was not part of the rules. Across 314 seconds, the pace felt less like a calm duel and more like a shower of sparks.

Five frags and the first escape

hemeroid did not stop after first blood. By the 38th second he had collected five kills without dying, and his longest spree ultimately stood at five. On the way he dropped Trajbalajka twice in a short burst, turning the second hit at 28 seconds into a Double Kill. Jano started more slowly, Kropic managed his only kill of the match on him, and Trajbalajka stayed within sight, but the leader already had room to breathe.

The first brake arrived at 43 seconds when GabrielLove hit hemeroid from 5.6 meters and ended the five-kill spree that had begun with first blood. Five seconds later, however, hemeroid answered with the longest kill of the match: he removed Jano from 39.7 meters and completed another Double Kill at the same time. The opening minute produced 15 kills and one clear message: on Blood Money, every hesitation was punished almost immediately.

Second minute at full throttle

The second minute was the busiest of the match with 17 kills. hemeroid moved into double figures at 79 seconds, then three seconds later landed his only headshot, again on Jano, to finish a Double Kill and reach 11 points. Jano replied with a two-kill burst of his own at 84 and 87 seconds, first taking GabrielLove and then Trajbalajka. Trajbalajka kept scoring steadily and remained close enough to influence the order behind the leader.

hemeroid still never lost first place. Jano killed him at 104 and 128 seconds and later completed a Double Kill by hitting him again at 144, but the scoreboard remained under the leader's control. At 144 seconds hemeroid had 15, Jano 11 and Trajbalajka 8. The gap was not mathematically unreachable, yet every attempt to close it seemed to be paid for with another precise beam coming back from the other side of the map.

Midgame: the chasers fight each other

Between the third and fourth minutes the match finally took a little air. The third minute contained only 9 kills, the lowest total of the first five full minutes, and after 162 seconds came the longest pause: twelve seconds without a kill. When the shooting resumed, hemeroid made it 16 by taking Jano at 174. Soon after, Trajbalajka and Jano were increasingly pulled into a direct fight for second place, with GabrielLove regularly stepping into their paths.

The fourth minute exploded back to 17 kills. At 203 and 204 seconds Trajbalajka first killed hemeroid and then Jano, earning a Double Kill and reaching 13 points — exactly level with Jano at that moment. hemeroid was already on 18 and immediately widened the gap with kills on Jano and Trajbalajka to reach 20. The chasers were taking time and points from each other while the leader converted their collisions into a growing safety cushion.

A finish with no change at the top

The fifth minute added another 15 kills and hemeroid kept moving toward the target of thirty. At 226 seconds he killed GabrielLove, but in the same second Jano answered by killing hemeroid. Trajbalajka then dropped Jano twice and at 235 seconds moved to 15 while Jano remained on 14. The fight for second was therefore much tighter than the fight for the win.

Jano found another burst at 266 and 268 seconds, completing a Double Kill and reaching 17, but hemeroid was already on 24. At 290 and 291 seconds the leader produced another Double Kill, reached 28 and opened the final lane to the finish. Trajbalajka still landed a headshot on him at 296, Jano scored his final point one second later, and GabrielLove headshot Jano at 300. hemeroid then killed GabrielLove for 29 and at 313 seconds closed the match on Jano: 30:19.
