Vulgarus Rules DM-Deck with Rockets and Reaches 30

Vulgarus took the lead after 18 seconds, never gave it back, and turned DM-Deck's chaos into a controlled march to thirty.

DM-Deck was not decided by a last-second swing or a desperate exchange of leaders. It was decided in the most uncomfortable way for everyone else: Vulgarus drew first blood after only 18 seconds with a Shock Combo on Ampjunkie, took the lead, and never surrendered it during the entire 632-second match. That does not mean the arena was quiet. Deckrat met the slime almost immediately, Ampjunkie kept returning for revenge, and Vybuch, Municak and Bourak later increased the density of fights dramatically. The final 30:8 score looks like a demolition, but the route there still included self-inflicted mistakes, two clean headshots, a late six-kill counterattack by Municak and one Double Kill near the finish.

First blood and a lead that never moved

Vulgarus opened the scoring at 18 seconds with a Shock Combo on Ampjunkie, and two seconds later Deckrat complicated his own start with a Slime suicide. By 72 seconds Vulgarus already led 4:0 after kills with the Rocket Launcher, Sniper Rifle and Stinger. Deckrat stopped him for the first time at 91 seconds with a rocket from 4.9 meters, but in that same second also killed himself with the Rocket Launcher. Ampjunkie added another kill on Vulgarus at 111 seconds, yet the leader remained comfortably ahead.

From 143 to 244 seconds Vulgarus regained full rhythm. He headshotted Deckrat with the Sniper Rifle from 23.8 meters, then later produced another sniper headshot on Ampjunkie from exactly the same distance. In between he rotated through the Rocket Launcher, Flak Cannon, Shock Rifle and Shock Combo. After killing Ampjunkie at 244 seconds he stood on 11 points with nobody close. Then came the longest quiet spell of the match: 33 seconds without a kill, a rare moment when DM-Deck briefly remembered that footsteps also make noise.

Vybuch arrives, slime punishes, the gap grows

Vybuch ended the silence at 277 seconds by sniping Vulgarus from 39.4 meters, then added Deckrat six seconds later. His momentum was checked by Slime at 295 seconds. Vulgarus answered with a Shock Combo and, even after his own Slime suicide at 319 seconds, immediately rebuilt: Flak Cannon on Deckrat, Rocket Launcher on Vybuch and Shock Rifle on Ampjunkie. At 367 seconds he killed Municak with a rocket and also caught himself in the blast, but the match remained firmly tilted in his favor.

Municak then produced the oddity of the night. At 371 seconds he hit Deckrat with the Bio Rifle from 49.5 meters, the longest kill of the entire match. Vulgarus kept moving: Stinger on Vybuch, Rocket Launcher on Municak, Flak Cannon on Bourak. At 452 seconds a Shock Combo on Vybuch pushed him to 20 points. The lead had still changed zero times. While everyone else was working out who might finish second, Vulgarus was already counting how many rockets he still needed to reach the limit.

The eighth minute erupts and Municak answers

The most violent stretch came in the eighth minute, which produced 12 kills. Deckrat sniped Vulgarus from 45.2 meters at 459 seconds, but the more important development started immediately afterward. From 460 to 552 seconds Municak assembled a six-kill spree: Vybuch, Deckrat, Vulgarus, Vybuch again, Ampjunkie and Bourak. He used the Bio Rifle, Flak Cannon, Enforcer and Slime, creating the strongest counterweight to Vulgarus's dominance.

Even that run did not change first place. Vulgarus had 21 points at 481 seconds and 22 at 499. Ampjunkie dropped him with the Link Gun at 513 seconds and Bourak did the same at 536, but the margin was simply too large. The key response came at 552 seconds: Vulgarus killed Municak with the Shock Rifle, ended the six-kill spree and moved to 23. That was the moment when the last serious surge was stopped without the scoreboard ever needing a dramatic lead change.

Rocket finish and thirty on the final second

After 552 seconds Vulgarus shifted into closing mode. He took Bourak with the Shock Rifle; Vybuch then killed him with a Rocket Launcher at 583 seconds, but Vulgarus answered almost instantly, killing Vybuch with the Flak Cannon one second later. That ability to return fire defined his match: the computed data credits him with nine revenge kills, comfortably the most in the field.

From 25 points onward he went straight for the target. Deckrat fell to a rocket at 593 seconds, Ampjunkie to the Link Gun at 603, and Bourak to another rocket at 607; that kill registered as a Double Kill. Six seconds later Vulgarus rocketed Ampjunkie for point 29. Vybuch still managed a Shock Rifle kill on Ampjunkie at 631 seconds, but the last word belonged to the leader. At 632 seconds Vulgarus killed Bourak with the Rocket Launcher from 7.8 meters and closed the match exactly on 30.

Match moments

• First blood came at 18 seconds when Vulgarus killed Ampjunkie with a Shock Combo.
• Vulgarus led from the opening kill to the finish and the match recorded zero lead changes.
• Vulgarus scored two Sniper Rifle headshots, both from exactly 23.8 meters.
• Municak owned the longest kill: a 49.5-meter Bio Rifle hit on Deckrat at 371 seconds.
• The eighth minute produced a match-high 12 kills and became the most chaotic stretch.
• Municak built a six-kill spree from 460 to 552 seconds before Vulgarus ended it.
• Vulgarus recorded nine revenge kills and added the match's only Double Kill late.
• The final point came at 632 seconds when Vulgarus rocketed Bourak to complete a 30:8 win.

The final table is emphatic: Vulgarus 30, Municak 8, Vybuch 7, Ampjunkie 4, Bourak 1 and Deckrat -1. The winner did not rely on one lucky spree. He stayed involved, survived an average of 52 seconds per life and used almost the entire arsenal. The Rocket Launcher produced ten of his kills, but the Shock Rifle, Flak Cannon, Shock Combo and Sniper Rifle all mattered. Municak owned the strongest uninterrupted run in the computed data and the longest single hit; Vybuch punished from range, while Ampjunkie and Deckrat both managed repeated kills on the leader. On DM-Deck, however, there was never a real question about who was ahead. The only question was when Vulgarus would reach thirty.
