If that, the first medic onto a spawn would win

Ah, clever observation. What I meant to say was this: The only way, I can imagine a true stalemate is if both players block each others Spawn Space with a unit and the only other units on the field are two medics, one for each team. Neither player will want to leave the others Spawn Space and neither can destroy the others unit. The Medics can then go on to play hide and seek.

Umm the first medic onto a spawn would still win (assuming the unit on the spawn is an attacker). For example you could have a soldier on his spawn and your medic is nearby. On your turn, move soldier away, put medic on instead. Use soldier to kill opponent, match over.
