Considered to be one of the highlight matches of the entire tournament, it is well known for, in the words of {{trepmaws}}, the "sheer creativity" of GameBop's side and for the "sheer entertainment" of AjaxCubed's side. Round 1 of this match, "Sid is not a BATTLE AXE" (2009), has gone on to become one of {{GameBop}}'s signature works, consisting of its initial sources edited in musical syncopation to the song "Feeling Good!" from the Squaresoft game ''Threads of Fate''(PS1, 1999). Additionally, Round 5 is remembered for the entirety of the previous round being chroma keyed inside of the otherwise minimally edited intro of ''Kukori Es Kotkoda'', and AjaxCubed's Round 6 is remembered for being a sheer comedic and energetic adrenaline rush, having become fondly embraced by newer generations of the tennis community. | Considered to be one of the highlight matches of the entire tournament, it is well known for, in the words of {{trepmaws}}, the "sheer creativity" of GameBop's side and for the "sheer entertainment" of AjaxCubed's side.
