The recurring theme defining the April skirmishes in 'Vampir' is, without a doubt, the server migration craze. It has become a common sight to see clans that spent months grinding for points suddenly vanish or jump ship, leaving fresh faces to scramble for the top of the server rankings and tournament brackets. The third week of April was no different. With server transfers reshuffling the hierarchy, the winner's charts and overall standings have been flipped on their head. Let's dive into the wreckage of these results, and keep an eye out for a particularly historic milestone reached by the clan GinyohanSaramdeul.

Standard Server Skirmish Results

The Diamond League in the standard server group delivered some genuine drama. In Group 2, Abigail faced off against GinyohanSaramdeul, and it was the latter who walked away with the win. Both clans are seasoned powerhouses we’ve frequently highlighted in our Vampir coverage. Abigail had been riding a 14-game winning streak, standing as the last undefeated clan in the entire Vampir skirmish scene. That was until the 11-win squad, GinyohanSaramdeul, decided to play spoiler. History has officially been made.

Groups 1 and 4 turned into a battleground for veterans and newcomers alike. Regarding the latter, the situation is rather fluid: last time, Lilis 1 saw the GinyohanSaramdeul clan rise to the Diamond League, while Nell 2 did the same with Nunsupdal. However, with those clans migrating, the top spots were left wide open. April has been a month of seismic shifts due to veteran transfers, and these servers bore the brunt of the chaos.

Getting back to the details, KkabuneunFamily secured a victory in Group 1, pushing their tally to 14 wins with a 5-game streak, while Cheohyeong took Group 4 with 8 total wins, including a 6-game streak. They’ll be heading into the next Vampir server shuffling as Diamond League contenders. Meanwhile, Diamond Group 3 featured two entirely fresh faces in the finals. As we predicted, former powerhouses like GongjeongGeoraeWiwonhoe and Seon-guja have migrated away. In their absence, We stepped up, securing a swift victory and cementing Kizia 3's stay in the Diamond League.

The Platinum League is singing a similar tune. We have a mix of established Vampir names—clans with deep pockets of experience—and newcomers trying to carve out their own legacy. Naturally, the veterans are still doing most of the heavy lifting. I’m particularly keeping an eye on the Poame 2 server in Group 4. Athena held the fort from February through March, but they jumped to Duncan 3 in April. The mantle of server ace has since been passed to the GinyohanSaramdeul clan.

Speaking of GinyohanSaramdeul, they are another clan that loves to travel. They claimed victory in Lilis 1 during the first April skirmish, then packed their bags for Poame 2 to win again. That’s three straight wins now. One has to wonder why they keep hopping around when they could easily hold their ground in the Diamond League.

As for Duncan 3, where Athena landed? The Sparky clan, which first brought glory to the server back on February 8, has snatched the trophy and bagged their second consecutive win. They’ve now earned their ticket to the May Diamond League skirmishes. They haven't let the sudden influx of rivals rattle them, holding onto their pride as the server's only point-holders. I’m quite keen to see how they perform next.

In the final Vampir standard server chart, we saw Seolhwa (Platinum Group 9), JeontuMinjok (Group 10), and Death (Gold Group 4) add to their point totals. Seolhwa seems to be sticking to a pattern of winning every other round since late February. JeontuMinjok is on a two-game streak, hitting 9 wins total. As for Death, this is their first win in about two months, finally pushing them into the multi-win clan club.

Streamer Server Skirmish Results

Finally, let's look at the Vampir streamer group results. Since there are fewer servers, the usual heavy hitters like Sashin, SpartaA, and Sinhwa have had an easy run to the finals. However, Platinum Groups 2 and 3 brought news of first-time victors: Wolhadan and RomanticFamilyA. Notably, Ridel 3 has been a weak server in the skirmish meta, but after ReturnD marked their first win at the end of March, Wolhadan has now added another feather to the server's cap.
