hemeroid breaks Stomp and races clear to 30 points

Kropic exploded out of the gate, but one lead change was enough for hemeroid to turn Stomp into his own firing range.

DM-(ITC)UG-Stomp in UltraInstagib skipped the warm-up entirely: after only four seconds Kropic hit Naboj for the authoritative first blood. The opening belonged to him — by 50 seconds he had six points, a Double Kill and a Multi Kill, and he remained ahead of the field. hemeroid did not begin as an untouchable favorite; Naboj dropped him at 41 seconds and Roznetka did the same at 63. Yet while everyone else traded small advantages, hemeroid quietly built a steadier rhythm. When he reached seven points at 96 seconds, he took sole possession of the lead for good. From that point on, the only thing that changed at the top of the table was the size of his cushion.

Kropic strikes like lightning

Kropic opened the scoring after four seconds against Naboj and produced the sharpest start of the match. He reached three at 27 seconds, then removed Naboj, Roznetka and Naboj again between 44 and 50 seconds. The last shot completed a Multi Kill and put him on six. Roznetka refused to make it easy: her kill on Kropic at 38 seconds completed a Double Kill and pulled her level at 3:3.

hemeroid advanced more quietly. He killed Kropic at 14 seconds, Roznetka at 24 and again at 55. Once Kropic stopped adding points after 60 seconds, the lane opened. Kills on Jano, Roznetka and Naboj carried hemeroid to six at 84 seconds, level with Kropic. Twelve seconds later he hit Jano, moved to seven and became sole leader. The official data records only one lead change; this was where an open brawl became a chase.

Seven points become a real gap

After taking the lead, hemeroid accelerated. At 97 seconds he added Naboj for a Double Kill, then Roznetka at 101 and Jano at 105 for another Double Kill. Trajbalajka stopped him at 112, but only briefly. hemeroid answered with Jano, Trajbalajka and Jano again; by 125 seconds he had 13 points and a Multi Kill. Then Naboj produced the distance shot of the match, hitting hemeroid from 50.3 meters at 128 seconds, the only kill beyond 50 meters.

The longest quiet spell followed. After Naboj killed Trajbalajka at 134 seconds, nobody scored for 17 seconds. When shooting resumed, hemeroid widened the margin: Jano fell at 151, Trajbalajka from 39.8 meters at 160, and Jano again at 169. Trajbalajka kept getting under his skin with kills at 133, 172 and later moments, but none disrupted the leader’s overall pace for long.

Eight kills that shut the door

The decisive phase ran from 200 to 262 seconds. hemeroid killed Trajbalajka at 200 and started the longest spree of the match: eight kills without dying. Before 241 seconds he added Trajbalajka, Jano, Naboj, Naboj again, Jano, Naboj and finally Trajbalajka. The sequence around 217 seconds produced a Multi Kill and his twentieth point; at 224 he also registered his second headshot for point 21.

The spree had a tactical fingerprint. hemeroid averaged 18.3 meters per kill, the highest figure in the lobby, and his average life lasted 26 seconds, roughly twice the 11-to-12-second rhythm of most chasers. Trajbalajka finally ended the run at 262 seconds with a shot from 4.7 meters. It was a deserved stop, but with hemeroid already on 24 it was more damage control than a true reopening of the contest.

The fifth minute becomes a storm

The ending was paradoxically the busiest part. The computed pace was 13, 17, 14, 16, 18 and 8 kills by minute, making the fifth minute the peak with 18. Trajbalajka, Naboj and Jano tore into one another: Naboj reached 15, Trajbalajka 14 and Jano 11. hemeroid died three times to Trajbalajka between 262 and 290 and once to Jano, but the cushion was already too large.

From 286 seconds he switched back on. Jano fell for point 25, another Jano kill made 26, then Naboj was hit from 36 meters; at 308 Jano became point 28. Trajbalajka still found points 15 and 16, Naboj reached 16, and Palic added two late kills. hemeroid closed it in character: Trajbalajka fell from 29.7 meters at 316 for point 29, then from 2.7 meters at 323 for the winning thirtieth.

The final 30:16 score looks emphatic, but the route there had two different halves. Kropic lit up the map with first blood and an early lead; then hemeroid took control and converted longer survival, greater average kill range and an eight-kill spree into a decisive gap. Trajbalajka and Naboj both finished on 16, Jano on 11, while the shorter appearances of Kropic, Roznetka and Palic added a chaotic edge. None of the 86 kills was a suicide: every point came from the Ultra Instagib Rifle. The final word went to the player who had owned the top spot since 96 seconds — hemeroid.
