| − | + | Match 1 of the first draw created '''lordbababa vs. metroid998''', and the first predictions of the outcome of the match were virtually unknown. The serve was delivered late and lordbababa claimed he "fell asleep before clicking the render button", and due to his very odd and seemingly misunderstandible style set an interesting tone, resembling more of a MLP AMV than an edited video that could built off of easily. metroid998 throughout this match played straight and responded how he knew with lordbababa continuing to respond late with more videos that seemed to avoid editing the previous round as much as it did presenting further MLP-oriented ideas that in nature almost seemed pretentious. At the match's conclusion the winner would eventually come out to be metroid998, a rare first for him. | |

The next match was '''CaptainStringCheese vs. superkoffee''', by the far the most humorous match of the first set which can be attributed almost entirely to the latter players completely unserious approach, a noticable change from his earlier work. It resurfaced a concept dating back to Superkoffee vs. MycroProcessor vs. TheChutley of a "secret chroma-keyable image" that koffee would insert somewhere into the round via an on-screen link that would redirect to an unlisted video with the image layed upon a green screen, with the comical proclaimation that the player had "managed to successfully manage to locate" it and that they now must used it in the next round. The hidden location was made obvious in Round 2 but in Round 4 it was actually hidden quite well, within the "Like +3" in the bottom of the tombstone proclaiming the death of Espeon(the running joke starting in round 2 was of Espeon being killed and then staying dead, he is killed hanging by ballons in which arrows puncture them causing espeon to fall into a giant spinning pocketknife, followed by a mustachioed Chowder proclaiming his demise. Espeon would reappear and then be 'killed' many times throughout the match). At one point koffee took notice that the chroma keyed image within Round 2 was not used, and after declaring he would "End this Rhonda with some color stuff" told Captain he had to use the image next time, which Captain did to follow the theme. | The next match was '''CaptainStringCheese vs. superkoffee''', by the far the most humorous match of the first set which can be attributed almost entirely to the latter players completely unserious approach, a noticable change from his earlier work.

Another highlight is a tribute to an odd video called "I love michael cera" in the form of "I love CaptainStringCheese" within Round 2 in which island chanting music assumably from a 1994 computer game called Fisher Price Pirate Ship (although its actual source while similar may be different) is synced with a humorously botched montage of individual photos of CaptainStringCheese and superkoffee mashed together in an absurd way as to idiosyncratically imply a kind of romance. Many fans of koffee's work consider this to be one of the greatest things he has ever created hands down. | Another highlight is a tribute to an odd video called "I love michael cera" in the form of "I love CaptainStringCheese" within Round 2 in which island chanting music assumably from a 1994 computer game called Fisher Price Pirate Ship (although its actual source while similar may be different) is synced with a humorously botched montage of individual photos of CaptainStringCheese and superkoffee mashed together in an absurd way as to idiosyncratically imply a kind of romance.

While the match was incredibly entertaining, tennis-wise some people believed that koffee had an unfair advantage over Captain seeing as how he seemed to produce better rounds almost effortlessly even though he had already lost interest in the match and deliberately ended on a low-par note, with a video consisting mostly of Fats Waller singing "Ain't Misbehavin'" overdubbed with him singing about how the video is the last round and that Espeon is dead and how everyone can now vote, with Espeon repetitively exploding on screen annunciated by Ganon's "DIE". Captain throughout this match considerably edited as his most technical up to that point, and people such as dewmann lobbied hard in support for him to advance onward. Despite this though koffee still emerged from this match as the winner by a landslide, which held up that he still had a very loyal following, advantaged more by the 3 penalties that Captain had accumulated even so. | While the match was incredibly entertaining, tennis-wise some people believed that koffee had an unfair advantage over Captain seeing as how he seemed to produce better rounds almost effortlessly even though he had already lost interest in the match and deliberately ended on a low-par note, with a video consisting mostly of Fats Waller singing "Ain't Misbehavin'" overdubbed with him singing about how the video is the last round and that Espeon is dead and how everyone can now vote, with Espeon repetitively exploding on screen annunciated by Ganon's "DIE".

'''dewmann vs. Diosbabilonia''', the players of which having recently played each other a SMBSS match that both still think very fondly of, were estatic at the chance to play each other again and promptly initiated an updated sequel of the first match, bringing about much more high-level editing than previous(the original match was for a revival effort in classic style matches). The match was the first in the tourney to both start and finish, with dewmann posting the serve the minute all the first rounds were officially due. The finished match was thought to be just as high of quality in both its consistancy and its energy, and special note was taken of Dios's highly original tricks done with simple editing. dewmann came out as the landslide victor of the match with 19 vs. 3 votes. | '''dewmann vs. Diosbabilonia''', the players of which having recently played each other a SMBSS match that both still think very fondly of, were estatic at the chance to play each other again and promptly initiated an updated sequel of the first match, bringing about much more high-level editing than previous(the original match was for a revival effort in classic style matches).

'''trepmaws vs. 2nnt''' would be the first 1v1 match that trepmaws would have played since the Tennis Season, and he entered into it with a highly humorous serve both in title and nature involving mostly a norwegian death metal music video by a band supposedly known as Dimmu Burger. 2nnt responded to every round competantly but was lacking confidence in his ability even before his match started. A short but definitely fun match to watch, trepmaws would eventually win despite gaining a penalty in another landslide. | '''trepmaws vs. 2nnt''' would be the first 1v1 match that trepmaws would have played since the Tennis Season, and he entered into it with a highly humorous serve both in title and nature involving mostly a norwegian death metal music video by a band supposedly known as Dimmu Burger. 2nnt responded to every round competantly but was lacking confidence in his ability even before his match started.

The players of '''djninjalovemistake vs. ChrisGendo''' had previously played in other in an audio tennis dating back to early 2010 and for a time seemed to be seperated from each other on the tennis front, but at this time they got the opprotunity to play each other properly in what ChrisGendo has considered to be one of his favorite matches. The styles and the senses of humor and source of the two seemed to clash together flawlessly and each round seemed to spill into the next with great progression, with both making good use of their dreamcore influences in the creation of each of their musical segments. While both recieved an equal penalty, djninja was the eventual winner, to which ChrisGendo promptly congratulated him claiming that it was the first time he had ever been disqualified from a tournament, also revealing he too had voted for him. | The players of '''djninjalovemistake vs. ChrisGendo''' had previously played in other in an audio tennis dating back to early 2010 and for a time seemed to be seperated from each other on the tennis front, but at this time they got the opprotunity to play each other properly in what ChrisGendo has considered to be one of his favorite matches.

Moogle famously commented that it was too early in the tournament for a match like '''TheRazorEdge vs. Gamebop''' to be listed in the first lineup, as this was made up considerably the two most respected players in tennis at the time going head to head, so naturally all critical attention was focused upon this match. TheRazorEdge's serve, with a title borrowed from an early Genesis lyric, was considered simultaneously by ChrisGendo and AshcrmentVII to be the best in the tournament so far. Gamebop responded to each round just as competantly and the match became a grand tour de force between the two of them that eventually resulted in an unexpectedly predictable tie of votes between the two. DaftPunkYoshi would make a cameo appearance as the holder of the tie-breaker vote, which won the match to Gamebop. The match would serve also to further cement TheRazorEdge's critical respect within the tennis field as being a player of both incredible youth and incredible sense of technicality and intensity of atmosphere in his videos. | Moogle famously commented that it was too early in the tournament for a match like '''TheRazorEdge vs. Gamebop''' to be listed in the first lineup, as this was made up considerably the two most respected players in tennis at the time going head to head, so naturally all critical attention was focused upon this match.

'''uwilmod vs. GreatBritishTurd''' was actually a rather fitting match-up as both the players in this match were known for their highly unusual styles. While uwilmod was known for a highly delinquint combination of unconventional editing and somewhat-forced humor, GreatBritishTurd was, at a technical level, highly seasoned, and this enabled him to respond to both of those aspects of uwil's style with as much grace as he had done in his golden years. The match was a particular highlight specifically due to his return and his updated way of editing, and would continue to be a subject of focus in later matches after having won this one. | '''uwilmod vs. GreatBritishTurd''' was actually a rather fitting match-up as both the players in this match were known for their highly unusual styles.

'''ZACHTOMCAT vs. theFXexpert26''' was a rather dysfunctional match of short rounds that took the longest to complete, holding the tournament back from moving on for at least a week due to theFXexpert having to request multiple extensions in order to be able to focus on school. ZACHTOMCAT initially made a serve that was too short that he later extended within his remaining time, and theFXexpert's last round became a brief subject of controversy when it was speculated that he accidentally used his own round 4 instead of ZACHTOMCAT's Round 5, a dispute that was never completely confirmed. Despite this theFXexpert ended up winning with the most votes recieved by a single player in the tournaments first set, beating ZACH 21 to 2. | '''ZACHTOMCAT vs. theFXexpert26''' was a rather dysfunctional match of short rounds that took the longest to complete, holding the tournament back from moving on for at least a week due to theFXexpert having to request multiple extensions in order to be able to focus on school.

| − | + | In '''smokutusofborg vs. CorruptionSound''', CorruptionSound was faced with the unique challenge of playing someone who not only hadn't tennised before, but seemed to have never made any videos period. His resulting rounds were an interesting excercise for both players; him for getting an idea of how tennis works by doing it hands-on, and for CorruptionSound in working in a more basic style than he was known for to respond to them, in some aspects considered to be the start of his love for making more humor-oriented rounds. The win for CorruptionSound was almost natural, but he would be tested greatly in his next matches. | |

Many of the newer players were excited to see TheChutley play tennis again, with TheRazorEdge saying that his new match in the form of '''TheChutley vs. SuperChops''' "was going to be something very special". And to the many people that kept themselves updated on it, even Superchops himself, It very much was. TheChutley's trademark audio editing was in top form and his eccentricness in his humor was as great as it had ever been, with his Round 6 even hinting back to the legendary superkoffee vs. MycroProcessor vs. TheChutley match with his inclusion of the Monty Python theme song. This match echoed TheRazorEdge vs. Gamebop in that both players played very strongly and also ended in a surprise tie, with the tie breaker vote being given to TheChutley by MycroProcessor, given that TheChutley would have essentially still won without the penalties he earned. | Many of the newer players were excited to see TheChutley play tennis again, with TheRazorEdge saying that his new match in the form of '''TheChutley vs. SuperChops''' "was going to be something very special".

FullCap claimed that he had a dream that he was tennising AshcrementVII in this tournament but was panicking at the idea of sufficiently making a good serve and having enough time to actually make it, and when revealed he would indeed be tennising him in '''AshcrementVII vs. FullCap''', called it a complete case of Deja Vu, though was very thankful that he wasn't serving. More YTPMVer than tenniser though, he had very much his own idea of how he thought he was supposed to play, with much of his rounds consisting of added sources which contrasted greatly with the techincal aspects of Ashcrment's responses. It was noted during this match that Skrimpish, a here-today-gone-tomorrow tenniser considered to be a visual effects revolutionary in his brief time of making videos, was watching and liking Ashcrements rounds in particular. | FullCap claimed that he had a dream that he was tennising AshcrementVII in this tournament but was panicking at the idea of sufficiently making a good serve and having enough time to actually make it, and when revealed he would indeed be tennising him in '''AshcrementVII vs. FullCap''', called it a complete case of Deja Vu, though was very thankful that he wasn't serving.

A bit of controversy developed over FullCap's last round, which did very little to actually edit the Ash's Round 5 rather than making a professional looking YTPMV using the same sources that Ashcrement used, relegating what he used of the actual round as just a backdrop. | A bit of controversy developed over FullCap's last round, which did very little to actually edit the Ash's Round 5 rather than making a professional looking YTPMV using the same sources that Ashcrement used, relegating what he used of the actual round as just a backdrop. | ||
Ashcrement stated he felt "almost offended by it" which instigated critical analysis by trepmaws who provided a more liberal explanation of why the round got that kind of response, assuring him that since it was his first match it was okay if it didn't go perfectly the first time, since tennis is all a learning experience. This sentiment was backed by ChrisGendo, reflecting on his own harsh treatment when he was very new to tennis. Ashcrement subsequently went on to win the match, and FullCap, despite the reassurance, disappeared never to play a game of tennis again. | Ashcrement stated he felt "almost offended by it" which instigated critical analysis by trepmaws who provided a more liberal explanation of why the round got that kind of response, assuring him that since it was his first match it was okay if it didn't go perfectly the first time, since tennis is all a learning experience.

'''BSP666c vs. Combuskenisawesome''' was a rather unique match in that it was one where Combusken's lower technical level of editing was actually incredibly compatible with BSP666c's style of highly-controlled chaos. Ashcrement commented on Combusken's rounds calling them "rather inspiring", and other positive comments were made on his efforts. Still, in the same fashion of the other "simple vs. complex style" matches that happened in the first set, it was the complex style that won here too under BSP's name. | '''BSP666c vs. Combuskenisawesome''' was a rather unique match in that it was one where Combusken's lower technical level of editing was actually incredibly compatible with BSP666c's style of highly-controlled chaos.
