Speedrunning[edit]

MAP30 earns its reputation as a difficult slaughter map.

Three speedrunners have completed the very difficult D2all UV max of this mapset. Daerik did it first in 2020 with a time of 4 hours and 23 minutes. Then Nevanos took the record the following year in 4 hours flat. In 2023, KineticBeverage set a new record of 2 hours and 57 minutes.

Current records[edit]
