[[Kurkop vs. superkoffee]] was a [[Youtube Poop]]/Video [[tennis]] match that took place between March 11 and 14, 2010<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/66312-kurkop-vs-lesuperkoffee/1.html It isn't entirely clear from the data of this thread, but these dates are determined from the date of the OP and the date of Kurkop's request to move the match to completed; {{GameBop}}'s only post indicates the rounds were edited into the OP, rather than posted as they were made, in a generally atypical method of documenting the match on the [[YouChew]] forums. There were also only 7 of the 9 rounds posted originally before they edited the two missing rounds into the post.</ref>. The first of 9 different matches in which the two players took part in together throughout their time in the tennis community, and the first of three directly between just the two players, the only source to be used throughout the match from the serve onward was the music video for "Elektronik Supersonik"(2004) by Zlad!(Santo Cilauro). The match features an abundance of editing techniques and visual response ideas that were rare and unique for the time, featuring multiple simultaneous keyframed layers, oblique and unusual shapes masked out of the previous footage, editing techniques such as cookie cutting and stuttering over a TV Simulation effect executed in an offbeat fashion, and the visual construction or manipulation of faces throughout select rounds. Responses get shorter as the match progresses, indicating naturally diminishing energy between the players, with the match's final round being only 1 second long, and featuring a single visual gag of a masked gun firing a masked bullet.

It was the second match played by both Kurkop and superkoffee.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/3.html#post-2902295 Kurkop never made a roster on the YouChew forums, but the only match listed in the Tennis Subforums before this under his name was with Bikeman48837.</ref> Initial confusion was had over the players' mutual decision to end the match on an odd number, a move considered atypical as it was generally assumed that complete matches consisted of an even amount of rounds.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/66312-kurkop-vs-lesuperkoffee/1.html#post-2616658</ref> Kurkop deleted all of his early tennis material in late 2010, leaving this match to exist in an only half complete state for about a year and a half before the initial launch of the [[TennisFacksJr]] account; Kurkop's surviving rounds for this match became among the earliest uploads to the channel in June 2012, having been archived by superkoffee. It remains the earliest of Kurkop's matches to survive intact and among the only evidence of him as a tennis player before late 2010. superkoffee would later prove to be an enduring influence on Kurkop's output for the next few years, referencing him or including him multiple times in various creative works, and both players would subsequently play a 4 round rematch, of which 3 rounds survive, a 2 round second rematch, from which no rounds survive, and a Black and White themed three-way match with mutual friend SynaMax/SynaMaxMusic. {{dani_phantump}} was influenced by the match and listed it as a favorite as early as May 2012, subsequently adopting a few of the match's editing techniques into their own style, most initially visible in a match they played with guitarrocker100 around this time. Round 2 of this match, superkoffee's "YipTipPup Tennis RUND**This Many Astericks**): KURKOP ElektronikinkortklE #Music Stylings#"(2010), was one of the 33 Round 2's sampled in {{GameBop}}'s "Seconds, Anyone?"(2010), their serve for [[GameBop vs. Sploltoen vs. MycroProcessor|their match with Sploltoen and MycroProcessor]] in the [[3-Way Tennis Tournament]].
