This was later checked by {{dani}} for the completion count.</ref>The match progression is largely sequential. Previous rounds more often used to segue into new sequences rather than on top of older sequences, comparatively "horizontal" construction compared to "vertical" construction. This creates a progression very similar to games such as [[ApolloBoy vs. SeductiveBaz]] (2007-2011). Each round's title also follows this pattern, where a story is given as the match goes on (Joker gets a Hot Sundae in Round 1, only for it to be Melted by Superman's Heat Vision in Round 2.)

Largely due to the popularity of both players, of which both are held in high regard in the era of early [[YouTube Poop]], each round (as well as the match compilation) amassed tens of thousands of views per video, some even into the hundreds of thousands.

The match is an early example of a tennis match not only being archived but compiled; in 2011 user "ThatHomestar" combined all twelve rounds together because "...while they're fucking hilarious, it's tedious to find them all and watch them in order"<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5BrND2CnQ4</ref>, also shortening the intros that begin each round.
All rounds continue to survive in their original uploads. It was first compiled into a single video by ThatHomestar, a fan of the match, in May 2011; "...while they're fucking hilarious, it's tedious to find them all and watch them in order"<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5BrND2CnQ4</ref>. The intros that begin each round were also shortened for this compilation.
 
It was the 4th match played by Deepercutt<ref>No roster exists for Deepercutt, but YouTube and YouChew history show that games were completed against Arufonzu/roboaru, milkr0und and captpan6 (first match) before this</ref> and the 10th match played by Captpan6 (9th completed) <ref>Roster provided directly by Captpan6 himself: "MahsuginaChicken, LakituGuy, xTheCommodore, {{theHappyFungus}}, GreatBritishTurd, MahsuginaChicken (2nd match), Deepercutt (GTA), toadomos, {{Nuthead}}, Deepercutt (Superheroes/supervillians), MeiAIDS, CptNameless, electricthecheese, DaThings, and currently BatHunterofDevon."
