Timestamp: Started at exactly 02:42 and abused it for the rest of the game.

The abuser was fully aware of this 5x damage glitch. They intentionally rushed the Splitshot build extremely early (at 2 mins in) just to exploit this broken mechanic and instantly delete players, completely ruining the competitive integrity of the match.

Devs, please look into this Match ID, fix this absurd interaction ASAP, and issue penalties to players who are actively exploiting this for rank.
