The Triples Cup
The Triples Cup was a Youtube Poop Tennis Tournament that was the last to be hosted primarily by ChrisGendo, but for the majority by trepmaws, from February to September 2013. The Tournament was a further extension of RAKninja's original Doubles Cup idea, extending the teams from pairs to groups of three and also incorporating team names for each group. The eventual Winning Team of the Tournament was a team made up of MycroProcessor, Gamebop and eletricalmonkss under the name of The Complex Triangle. This would be signifigant in that it would be the first tournament that MycroProcessor would finally win after having made it to the final match in two previous tournaments, and Gamebop would become the first tennis player to win for a second time.
Origins
The Triples concept had been a pet project of Chrisgendo's since 2010, and there was in fact a previous attempt to turn this into a tournament in June 2011, which would've originally been the follow-up competition to The Three-Way Tournament, following a 4 month period of competitive inactivity within the Tennis Section (Gamebop's Tennis Shuffle was put into place to alleviate this wait, but it proved overall to be ineffective as the only matches that really finished took most of the rest of the year to do so). The teams that signed up for this incarnation of the tournament would have been:
MAD MACHINE ZETTAI RYOUIKI, made up of Chrisgendo, AshcrementVII, and djninjalovemistake, potentially the first tournament for the latter two players.
Team Q T Q, made up of Metroid998, superkoffee, and dew, largely organized through skype and potentially dew's first tournament.
TFALL ZONE ACT II, made up of Gamebop, MycroProcessor and TheChutley, which some people beheld as a combination of such power that it could almost be considered a holy trinity; 'The Big Three' if you wish.
The Computer Jesus Refrigerator Tennis Team, made up of all banned members, DoctorEggman, NESfanboi and RobochaoXX.
Splolteon FC, made up of BSP666c, CorruptionSound, and pokruk, regarded similarly in combination to that of TFALL ZONE ACT II, since all three of them by this time had made the tennis community highly aware of their abilities.
Weeaboo's From Hell, made up of CaptainStringCheese, BMATF, and trepmaws, potentially Captain's first tournament as well.
therazoredge, vvaluigi and sanemurzu potentially also formed a team, although a name was never chosen and participation between all three was never officially confirmed. It would have been the first for therazoredge and sane at this time.
The official 8th team to sign up was one made up of members who had mostly been active on other parts of the forum, and had all collectively tennised very little; a moderator, Intermission, and two other older members, RidetheCatfish and cantflyman. Upon realization of two then-recently banned members having joined the tournament Intermission suddenly and unexpectedly became very vocal, essentially ordering them to be removed. His reasoning behind this had largely to do with the Oz incident still having been a very recent occurrance, and this was a time when paranoia and concern of site safety was high and the moderation staff had become a lot more quick to jump onto things than usual as a result of it. They were under the suspicion that both of those people had associated very heavily with Oz during his historic siege of the Youchew forums, and were currently considered still dangerous due to the fact that superkoffee's account had been hacked very recently by them.
Chrisgendo very naturally countered with the notion that this was his Tournament and his section of the Forum and so the decision of what was and wasn't in this case were up to him. He stated that everyone involved was here to "play some damn tennis and have some damn fun, and i'm not gonna take that away from anyone who wants to have some fun. they haven't done anything wrong yet as far as the tourney is concerned, so i see no reason to kick them out. " He would also bring up the fact that banned members have played before and not being able to post or interact much with the forum itself would keep it from being under any attack.
It was at this point that RideTheCatish, who wanted no association with them, decided to leave, to which Gendo famously remarked "don't let the door hit your ass on the way out, then. " In which tensions began to escalate.
Further arguementing took place about their participation with Chrisgendo stating that tennis itself had absolutely nothing to do with the forum in this case, that all it was just making videos and having fun, which many people in this case sided with. Intermission however refused to back down from where he already stood, stating that as a part of the Cafe Staff, working in conjugation with the Writing Staff, Mods, and Admins, that this was a site-supported activity, which recieved much criticism due to the fact that nothing that was happening was what was desired to happen for this event, that it was essentially being hijacked ironically by those who had severe ill will toward banned members. Eventually things came to a heat in which lordbababa suggested that it just be a regular tournament on another site, in which Ride replied as if to say that whats what should happen, when really Intermission and Ride both didn't want this happening, that they wanted to continue on and still make videos despite the bias already established. Eventually the thread was closed down following magmalord posting a video of King Harkinian saying "ENOUGH" for 10 minutes. A number of noncontributive posts were deleted right before.
The dispute carried over out of public sight and it was at this time that some tennis regulars/staff members left in protest towards the way the moderation staff was thinking, creating a social divide between the two staffs. This would go on for a couple of months, and during that time the tennis section would return to business as usual, although with a noticeable amount of less people present. A settlement would eventually be reached, in which DaftPunkYoshi, then still a Cafe Staff member, would be promoted to Moderation status in order to provide a positive link between the two staffs and help to resolve the differences and effectively end the feud, which would later see progression in the regular presence of some moderators in the Cafe like Probo, Whelt, and to-be moderator Smonge. The original Triples Tournament thread would however never be reopened, and in it's place a Doubles Cup II, with primary input from a recently returned RAKninja, would unfold, followed by the Tennis Cup IV that further pushed the Triples Cup to a later date.
Finally in February 2013 the Tournament was officially reannounced for signups, starting with a clean slate due to the community having majorly evolved, with a number of players having either left or gone on a competitive/complete hiatus from tennis. This version of the tournament would see success through its end, though at this time be hosted majorly by trepmaws.
Players
The first team to sign up had dubbed themselves Super God Masterforce, and in addition to Chrisgendo and trepmaws, would also be the first time since The Three-Way Tournament that RAKninja would take part. The second team to officially join was The Aphotic Trio, made up originally of therazoredge, CreepahWeegie, and MattVariety, formed together through skype. Gamebop, JacobketronCT, metroid998,eletricalmonkss, AshcrementVII, Cornflakes, Rillion, MAZZ0Murder, ZACHTOMCAT and CorruptionSound would all sign up unnassigned, and out of this group of people would eventually form the teams of Cornflakes Murdering Ash Cream(with AshcrementVII, Cornflakes and MAZZ0Murder), the original lineup of The Complex Triangle (Gamebop, eletricalmonkss, and an off-site player named LoveForLogos), and the original lineup of The Superb Optimistics (JacobketronCT, metroid998, and ZACHTOMCAT). imoutofideas would join in his first tournament and team up with CorruptionSound, who would eventually select cyclejunkie, also a newcomer, as the third player, naming themselves Fredryx's Caremel Gang. dew at this time was originally taking a hiatus and didn't plan to play in the tournament or any tennis for a time, until approached by Bloodis on Steam about the opportunity of finally forming the team Triple Baka, concieved by the two of them under the vocaloid concept of dew playing Hatsune Miku, Bloodis playing Kasane Teto, and a then unknown third player being Akita Neru. trepmaws was approached first and sanemurzu was considered, but Rillion would eventually become this third player. Magged Rat signed up mentioning the possibility of him and ArsenioGut forming a team, eventually selecting FishTitan64 as their third player to form Fox Box Ang Clan, the only team made up of entirely newcomers. lordbababa would sign up as replacement for later on.
Matches
Set 1
Fredryx's Caramel Gang vs. The Superb Optimistics (with cyclejunkie, ZACHTOMCAT, imoutofideas1, JacobketronCT, CorruptionSound and metroid998 volleying in that order) was the first match up to be listed. cyclejunkie had an initially humorous reaction to finding out that he would serve for his match, but then seemed to completely forget about it, apparently getting distracted with school. The serve was as a result already delivered late, and was of his usual display of mostly static colored visuals throughout the video. trepmaws described this video jokingly as "jumping straight to the final round" and adding that it added to the interesting variety of serves that the Tournament was starting out with. ZACHTOMCAT's Round 2 presented a considerable effort to try to volley this video which was of such a strange variety, but only really succeeded in giving the round some more movement, as much of it only really touched the surface of the previous round. imoutofideas1's Round 3 was reminiscent in part to pokruk's early style, being that much of the previous Round went untouched except for slow gradual After Effects movements topped with a variety of color alterations. The audio was also unusually muted, which further served to hurt the video's overall presentation.
JacobketronCT seized an opporutinty with Round 4 in that both many new sources and a distinct atmosphere were now added into the match which made his performance come off incredibly strong. Comedic elements such as sentence-mixed segments involving David Bailey were also introduced, as well as a segment reminiscent to the "mini-games" of superkoffee's work. This began with two images of Nintendo Power magazines being distorted in two different ways over the edited previous round, which was then interjected by JacobketronCT's own voice proclaiming:
"Congratulations! This is the YTP TENNIS QUESTIONNAIRE. What will happen in Round 5 to the Nintendo Power Magazines? Will it be:
A. Issue One will Defeat Issue Two
B. Issue Two will Defeat Issue One
C. Hulk Hogan Will devour Both Issues
D. The Issues will perform the "Harlem Shake" and annoy everyone who hates 4chan memes
Tune in next time to Round 5 of this exciting tennis match!"
The actual Round 5 as made by CorruptionSound first responded to this questionnaire to by having Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka loudly interject with "NOTHING!" and proceeding to a distorted clip from a skit on adult swim. It then responded in a more serious way by going with option C, in which the Nintendo Power magazines were masked onto a hamburger that Hulk Hogan promptly eats during his Ultimate Grill infomercial.
The rest of the round was done in the style that CorruptionSound had become known for, beginning with a VHS tape intro that has characterized nearly all of his work and a Milton-Bradley "Gong" logo video that was absurdly distorted for comedic effect. Everything else was proceeded in his quick destructive style with static-like audio and intersparsed with a sequence from the Benny Hill show throughout amongst other small appearances by added sources. Metroid998's Round 6 had its own take on what happens to the Nintendo Power magazines, having them beaten to a pulp by The Escapist in a video titled "The Jimquisition Story". The following rest of the round was also edited in Metroid's own usual style.
Round 7, the collaborative round by the Fredryx's Caramel Gang, maxed out in the time limit but while visually very impressive, suffered from being drawn out for so long and in places feeling monotonous. Audio from the previous round was only heard for less than a minute(from mostly Corruptionsound), while the rest was either incredibly low or mostly silent (from imoutofideas1) or completely different audio entirely (cyclejunkie). Much of the video also did not respond as well to the previous Round although presumably in CorruptionSound's parts it responds to the fate of the Nintendo Power magazines by now having them hit out of the park within a NES baseball game, in addition to making the previous added sources the most recognizable. Due to the lengthy time spent by both cyclejunkie and imoutofideas the round was also delivered very late. The variety of approaches the round took however was praised by some viewers, TheRazorEdge calling it his favorite round of the tournament so far along with djninjalovemistake's serve. eletricalmonkss called the round "relaxing", saying that he "let himself drift off into the visuals".
Round 8 by the Superb Optimistics finished the match with lots of energy and better responded to many of the areas of the previous round, although the Nitendo Power magazines concept was surprisingly not continued. Much of ZACHTOMCAT's parts continued in the similar atmosphere of the previous round while both Jaco and Metroid's parts worked to give the round some more flavor by their addition of music into many areas, including Jacob's readdition of Scott Pilgrim versus the world, which he had first used when playing TheChutley. The Round once again was proved to be a much stronger effort than that of the opponant, which was reflected in the matches final results, where the Optimistic's beat the Caramel Gang 7 to 6, or 7 to 4.2 when adjusted for penalties.
The Complex Triangle vs. Fox Box Bang Ang Clan (with eletricalmonkss, Fishtitan, LoveForLogos/lordbababa, ArsenioGut, Gamebop and XxRobotchaoxX set to volley in this order) Would have a rather interesting turnout in that it would be the only match to have failed in this tournament due to the unstable organization and eventual collapse of the volleying team, amongst other errors that occurred. The match began with a serve by eletricalmonkss, who was now using a much different editor outside of Vegas resulting in a style radically different from what he had done in The Grey Tournament, his most recent previous competition. Rillion commented that he loved it on the basis of how nostalgic it felt in how more basically edited it was, using primarily an adult swim source through most of the video.
HollowTheGuy/Magged Rat, originally slated to make Round 2, ended up leaving without making a single video and was replaced by FishTitan64, which responded with a very musical Round 2 that worked really well in following up the pace of the previous round expertly. At this time, LoveForLogos would now step up for Round 3, responding very quickly with a video that almost immediately was discovered to actually be Round 9 of Luioigi vs. Funnaccceptable vs. NESfanboi from The Three Way Tournament with a generated title intro stuck into the beginning. Gamebop as a result would give LoveForLogos a stern talking to, in hopes that he would be would be able to get him to make something similar to what he had seen him do before, which he was now just discovering may have also been stolen as well and sadly nothing more than a false representation of LFL's actual video editing skills, or lack thereof. Lordbababa would now step in as a replacement player for the real Round 3 of the match.
Round 3, which he has said he made while drunk, took the match in a radically different direction from the first two rounds, beginning with the intro song that was barely edited and ending in an explosion, then transitioning to a segment which treated the title of the video "Automated Scat from the Bunghole!" as the name of a TV show featuring voices overdubbed by himself, primarily those of the announcer and the Pony character which appears prominantly throughout the video. 3 or 4 frames from the Adult Swim source of the previous round would appear here digitally redrawn and colored and would be the only part of the source used aside from the audio, which was used in seemingly random amounts a-la RAKninja. The video's ending segment would feature the previous round edited slightly more, with the aged woman from the intro masked onto the front and cookie-cut-animated to sing, before ending one again, the entire pace of which was starkingly slow. Opinions on this round were incredibly mixed. Some regarded it as a daring experiment, while others didn't have any idea what Bababa was thinking, as he commonly would advertise his rounds in-progress as something rather phenomenal and upon presentation would almost always be something MLP-centric, usually very detracting from the previous round and the match itself. ArsenioGut's Round 4 however would serve to in the self-opinion of it's maker to further detract from Round 3, as it added a lot of new sources and also served to be greatly shorter. He would end up incredibly late with the delivery of this video, and it was reported that on tumblr he had subsequently publically expressed a very scathing opinion towards competitive tennis in general, essentially saying "Don't EVER play in a Tennis Tournament". This created scorn amidst a number of tennis regulars.
Round 5 would be finished and be another strong response from Gamebop, doing such things as turning the Pony into a 3D-layered object and also featuring a sequence in which a character from the Adult Swim source would have the head masked onto Mario from Super Mario Bros. gameplay footage, and upon gaining a "Yu-Gi-Oh powerup" would chroma-key out the screen featuring a visual segment using the singing masked head from round 4, which had now become an extensive rave segment, while also adding in bits of the previous round as additional instruments. The round from then onward would be excessively corrupted, which would be positively noted.
At this point everyone now wondered what was to come of the match, as no third player had still been found yet, although initially the match had progressed far beyond the others and was therefore ahead of schedule. Eventually Fox Box Ang Clan selected XxRobotChaoxX as their third player, a user who was known to be a famous MeiAIDS impersonator. As time went on however, all the other matches of the first set eventually finished, and still no Round 6 for the match was ever made within the deadline, and it was eventually verdicted that The Complex Triangle automatically advance, which formerly dismissed what was left of the other team from the tournament.
By complete surprise, several weeks into the next Set XxRobotChaoxX would famously finally upload Round 6 of the match, then long since declared failed, much to the bemusement of many. Lordbababa and eletricalmonkss would vouche for a proper completion of the match, but this sadly was never undertaken.
The Aphotic Trio vs. Triple Baka(with djninjalovemistake, Bloodis, therazoredge, Rillion, CreepahWeegie, and dewmann volleying in this order)
saw itself following an interesting concept of roleplay with Triple Baka playing under their vocaloid guises and The Aphotic Trio playing under the guise of a number of clown-faced children from a self-image film titled "If Mirrors could Speak", dated from 1976. The serve displayed a trademark example of djninjalovemistake's hybrid of a both atmospheric and musical style, making prominant use of a drum loop sample that had come to characterize several of his videos. Featured in this video was a source of a man welcoming you "to the Wonderful World of Tennis" for what would appear to be an instructional video on the actual sport, and this would become prominent as an ongoing derivation throughout the match. Bloodis's Round 2 was relatively minimal, though did have the interesting gimmick of running djninjalovemistake's song from the previous round through WubMachine, remixing it into a dubstep version of the original. therazoredge would respond very strongly with Round 3 with the addition of a section of songs by Radiohead and Boards of Canada, with an audio selection from a video called "Drugs Are Like That". The reimplementation of IMCS and the Triple Baka visual made another appearance, and this was considered overall to be the best round of the match as of that point.
Rillion's Round 4 would cycle back methodically to the beginning of the match's concept, and be a rather contrasting take on the previous round that was nevertheless positively noticed by AshcrementVII and RAKninja, who mentioned that the way it was edited was in his favorite style. Much of the round was taken up by an anime sequence involving tank warfare, in which the previous round was cut into it to simulate a beam of energy being blasted out from one tank into another. Aside from this part of the round, much of the rest of it edited the previous round very minimally, with Rillion making mention that he didn't like working with "flashy tennis rounds". due to having difficult with adaption. Round 5 was much longer and edited in a very bizarre way that almost seemed like a hybrid of the last two rounds being neither too simple or too complex, extending many parts and adding in numerous audio sources for an interesting presentation. The end of the video would have the Triple Baka faces (of Miku, Teto and Neru) pasted onto three of the characters from an inside view of the tank in the anime source, which would become a key factor of the round that was to respond to this.
dewmann's Round 6 saw him scaling back noticably from the approach he had used for the bulk of his previous tournament, using this round to mostly experiment with new sources and new approaches. Prominant throughout the round was the song "Dogs a Best Friend's Dog" by Tears for Fears, at the time one of his favorite songs, with the appearance of "Going for the One" by Yes also making an appearance and a documentary of Steely Dan's album "Aja" also making an appearance, very clearly marking his musical tastes at the current time. He would employ an instance of "window-phasing" by using the three vocaloid heads as the windows to the various sections of the round, which eletricalmonkss described as if it was "a look into each of their minds".
Section 1 which peered into the "mind" of Akita Neru featured largely of footage from the PS3 game Journey, with also a snippet from Mulan with the previous round cut into the background. which then proceeded to work with specific instances of the previous round following it in a wide variety of different tricks. Section 2, which now went to Kasane Teto, chroma keyed another source onto a clip that had a source from previously chroma keyed onto it, which here was the Thief and the Cobbler, then cutting to working with the tank anime footage while was argueably the round's strongest moment. Section 3, now at Hatsune Miku, was almost entirely musical, making YTPMV's using the previously mentioned added songs and then featuring a scene with the previous round chroma keyed into more Journey footage. The round would then end zooming into the manwith10toes frame ("I DID IT!") signaling the round 7 that would then take place. While reception of this round was not clearly identified, it was suspected that it was very likely mixed.
Round 7, with CreepahWeegie, therazoredge and djninjalovemistake altogether, provided a powerful fusion mix of of slow and heavy editing with ambient and harsh noise driven paces that overall was an excellent combination between the 3 of them. djninja's parts were by far the most standout, working primarily in his use of free-frame plugins and his continuation of the "Wonderful world of tennis" source and its musical alterations. therazoredge and Creepah however fused together particularly well and worked through the round splendidly, implementing an audio source that said "Were listening huh? Alright, well listen to this...this is FUCKING CANCELED(partially indistinguishable at the end, could use clarification)" and proceeding to carry out a mixture of atmospheres that made the round present itself very strongly and coherently.
Round 8, from the other team, was more a video where the sum was less than its parts, as all three players went more in their individual directions and all were for the most part not inherintly a stronger response to the round that they were presented with. Bloodis had the smallest contribution, appearing mostly only at the beginning and end, and for the most part only worked in surface texture editing with pieces of the previous round in his heavy usage of displacement compositing, though did make interesting use of a peice provided by dewmann that he made for the intention of being overlapped on different parts, as he rendered that with his other footage with a green screen. dewmann contributed the video's beginning joke and proceeded to volley with the most direct approach, using unique audio filters on djninjalovemistake's parts and also contributing a small YTPMV segment set to "I.G.Y" by Donald Fagen(using the "LISTEN TO THIS" from the previous round as its intro), and also adding in Mickey's Trailer over the parts of the previous round that featured music without visuals. Featured in this video was game-play footage from OFF, one of his new favorite games, and an animated frame from Homestuck, which he was also greatly into at the time. Rillion's parts edited the previous round very minimally and mostly added over it mostly unedited anime footage (from a such one about tennis in fact) with distorted audio and satirically pointing fun at the supposed excesses of tennis that were a common opinion among most outsiders ("layers and effects fucking EVERYWHERE"). His parts rather surprisingly seemed to make up most of the video, which didn't help it much. The round ended with "do you still remember which round is whose?" showing brief snippets from the first 6 rounds, as if to poke fun at the match's progression to becoming unrecognizable from everyone's individual input. The Aphotic Trio would win the match by only one vote, with 5 to Triple Baka's 4. This would ironically be the first non-Season competitive match that Rillion would ever complete, and at the same time this would also be dewmann's 50th match.
Cornflakes Murdering Ash Cream vs. Super God Masterforce(with MAZZ0Murder, ChrisGendo, Cornflakes, trepmaws, AshcrementVII and RAKninja volleying in this order) began with a serve using entirely Godfrey Ho's ninja's along with Power Rangers Footage, which immediately set the tone for the match, especially among the list of players, that was to unfold. Chrisgendo in his Round 2 unveiled a noticeably stripped down version of the style he had become known for, breaking away from the density of his earlier videos in favor of something more simplistic, only selectively using more than one layer to proceed with his edits throughout the volley. His musical abilities, which had also undergone considerable development over the course of his last few competitions, really shone at this time too, making for a video that worked off very well from MAZZ0's style and continuing to prove his strength even under new tactics. Cornflakes' Round 3 would edit the previous round sufficiently at the beginning of the video but then some time in the previous round would become mostly lost under a destructive visual, which made much use of chroma-keying and light rays with a Newblue earthquake effect with classical music set in the background.
trepmaws' Round 4 was much shorter and utilized a lot of added peices and was naturally much heavier, made in what trep referred to as "late spurts of inspiration". The "I love Anime" bit was expanded upon to now include "I love TURTLES I love CANDY I love TRAINS" which would be further continued in subsequent rounds, in Ashcrement's Round 5 it became "I love ANIME I love SNAKES I love NINJITSU ASS I love *cheap keyboard music*" (borrowed from the serve). The round also acted both as an enthusiastic anticipation for RAKninja's forthcoming volley, which would be his first tennis round after a number of years hiatus, and seemingly as an ethusiastic reaction to the opprotunity to volley a round of trepmaws' again, as they both had been itching more or less unsuccessfully to play each other in the past. The addition of Metal Gear footage, the theme from "Ninja Protector", Sailor Moon and the famous Godfrey Ho "Silent Asassin" dialogue furthered the notions of the former, while also featuring the sentance mixed dialogue "It's quite an honor to meet the legendary RAKninja...","That's just a code name""Then perhaps I should call you.....Megatron" which served to help bring a close to the video.
Round 6, in characteristic fashion of RAK's work, was a drastic departure from the rounds that preceded it. It served to be a very quiet, slow, and in some aspects meditative round that focused on a darkened mirrored background of bits of the previous round with small clips of other parts appearing in minimally edited forms on top of it in a somewhat repeated cycle. An interlude in the middle of the round features Transformers G1 footage of conversing deceptagons with overdubbed dialogue from Ninja: Silent Assassin once more, ending with a golden Megatron emblem with the phrase "You're Welcome" printed on it which became the videos thumbnail, almost completely identical to that of his previous video which was simply the film SOLAR ADVENTURE with commentary from himself. Barely visibly appearing throughout the entirety of the video was a thin outline silhouette of the Ratigan image from Round 5.
The Collab Round 7 for Cornflakes Murdering Ash Cream was presented rather cohesively as if all the team members made the same video at the same time, with each persons contribution still signifigantly present. Cornflakes's part was mostly relegated to background visuals as his was the most visually intense while Mazz was apparently a combination of source addition of more Ninja footage as well as a middle peice involving some editing of RAK's megatron segment. Much of Ashcrement's contribution appeared to be a series of further dialogue segments this time including Haruhi Suzumiya and Black Lagoon, with a thin silhoette of Megatron this time appearing over the video on at least one instance, along with a brief musical segment hinting towards that of Chrisgendo's response. Round 8 was more classically organized; RAKninja largely worked in responding to the conversational segments while also providing oblique visual and audio bits, trepmaws worked similarly except used animated touhou characters to contstruct the entirety of his scenes, using the previous round to create backdrops for the setting(in once instance the players of the match entirely were given their own characters. Ashcrement's was given mouse ears and tail, MAZZO the signature red hair and eyepatch of his avatar, RAKninja in a silver robot suit, Chrisgendo as essentially a recreation of Hitagi Senjōgahara as close as was possible, and trepmaws as his own character, sporting a very devilish grin and expression). Chrisgendo handled the majority of the heavy editing and also created the videos ending altogther making the round diverse in its pacing and atmosphere and to many a great conclusion to one of the best rounds of the tournament so far. This would however be the only time that the lineup of RAKninja/ChrisGendo/trepmaws would ever be present in one video during this tournament. Due to the nature of the match voting was definitely considered a tough choice, but in the end it was Super God Masterforce that took the win with a score of 8.1 to 1, making it the first tournament match that RAKninja had won since 2009.
