Fastest stalemate in each variant !!

Hello everyone, few days ago, i've tried with a friend to find the fastest stalemate in each lichess variant.
Here's the result :

-Classical : 10 moves (not by me)


-Atomic : 13 moves


-Racing kings : 7 moves !!


-Horde : 12 moves


If you manage to get a fastest stalemate, just post and i'll see :p
Thanks for reading !
I can beat your atomic one by half a move, although further improvements are probably possible.

[Variant "Atomic"]

1. g4 c5 2. Bg2 Qc7 3. Bxb7 a5 4. a4 e5
5. d4 d6 6. d5 h5 7. Bh6 f5 8. Bxg7 hxg4
9. e4 f4 10. Qh5+ Kf8 11. c4 Kg8 12. Qf7+ Kh8
13. Nf3
@Illion After some 13 movers, I found this 11 mover:

[Variant "Atomic"]

1. c4 b5 2. cxb5 Bb7 3. f4 Bxg2 4. Kf1 g5
5. fxg5 Bg7 6. Qc2 Bxb2 7. a4 a5 8. Kg2 e5

Fastest stalemate in a real game is Sibilio - Mariotti, Ravenna 1982, according to Tim Krabbé.
