<small>"a ground-breaking, tremendously impressive match. If Stegblob vs. TyrannosaurusReich was a duel between Zues and Odin, this match was surely a duel between Odysseus and Achilles. To my knowledge, it is the longest two-player match in history. The last two poops of the match were my favorites of the whole game, since they seem to be the culmination of all the memes and consistent techniques of the match. In good tennis matches, running gags are established often, but never have I seen such effective use of them, built further in each round. This match, like a handful of others, should be carved into [YTP] history as classics."<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/56-archive/75516-tennis-review-unclechuckth-vs-wikiwow/1</ref></small> | <small>"...a ground-breaking, tremendously impressive match.

The match today is mostly only viewable from UncleChuckTH's side, with the exception of "AND TAILS"(2007), Wikiwow's Round 7, which was the only round from his side that was archived following the loss of his videos in 2012. | The match today is mostly only viewable from UncleChuckTH's side, with the exception of "AND TAILS"(2007), Wikiwow's Round 7, which was the only round from his side that was archived following the loss of his videos in 2012. | ||
