It was the 28th match played by Luioigi<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/1#post-934759</ref>, the 51st match played by {{GameBop}}<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/1#post-934763</ref> and the 31st match played by {{MycroProcessor}}<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/1#post-934814</ref>. The match is known for having an eerie, concentrated and at times apocalyptic tone, similar in some ways yet entirely distinct from the other match played in this tournament set. Luioigi's style had by this point reached a stylistic apex, and essentially set the tone that was to follow for this match with his serve, "Ernie Summons Turtle Monsters from the Moon". {{GameBop}} approached this match with the most visually intense style of the three players, as signified by their impressively complex Round 2 and their very musical Round 5. Their Round 8 of this match, "? Rain fails to dampen the Boards Bill Created for the City's Pole Position ?" was later the subject of "Puzzle Pieces -4", part of their own series of "puzzle piece" type videos that showed the deconstruction of the video into the individual rendered segments that were used to eventually arrive at the final product. | It was the 28th match played by Luioigi<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/1#post-934759</ref>, the 51st match played by {{GameBop}}<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/1#post-934763</ref> and the 31st match played by {{MycroProcessor}}<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/1#post-934814</ref>.

This was {{MycroProcessor}}'s second match played after a significant stylistic reinvention undertaken halfway through this competition(if one doesn't count the unfinished matches concurrently played with Massivezephyr14 and ArtichokeSpades alongside it). Each of his three rounds in this match took bold, exploratory directions apart from the work he had been previously known for while still being playful and synergistic with ideas and progression hints present in {{GameBop}}'s rounds. One such example is a drastically sped-up audio and video sample of "Sid is not a BATTLE AXE" (Round 1 of [[GameBop vs. AjaxCubed]] from the [[Grey Tennis Tournament]], cited as one of {{MycroProcessor}}'s favorite ever YTPs) making an appearance in his frenetic Round 6 of this match. Mycro's final round was the first of three videos by them to be titled "5". It is the most experimental round of this match, and one of the most avant-garde videos made within the YTP idiom period at the time, serving to have a vast influence upon the shape of tennis that was to come. One of the more well known aspects of round 9 is the very beginning: a solid white background save for a single horizontal line and a ominous drone. These various directions and daring creative choices ended up making the largest impact, and it was {{MycroProcessor}} who became the winner of this match, and the third and final player chosen for the tournaments final match.
