Mini challenge #3: "Lucky shot" <closed>

   This time you have to kill this imp spiral dropping only one bomb. No other attacks are allowed, (like DJN trains or imp-gates), just the right bomb in the right place. The use of SPL is forbidden.
   A perfect 100% wins is not possible (really?), so you have to score minimum 99% wins, (10000 rounds will be played).
