	[[Kurkop vs. Metzgorrre]] was a [[Youtube Poop]]/Video [[tennis]] match that took place between sometime before July 27 and October 7, 2010. The players agreed upon the common rule that no sources were to be added after the serve (though Metzgorrre briefly included a picture he presumably created himself in Round 2) with the match overall being fairly condensed in length; every round created was between 15 and 35 seconds long. Kurkop played this match from his then-alternate account "pokruk", several years before it was rebranded into his current main account "Graham Kartna". The exact list of sources used in the serve are unknown, but include a 2009 Seseme Street sketch about octagons featuring Elmo and Jack Black, a Billy Mays infomercial, and sprites from the game ''Punch-Out!!''(NES, 1987). While the [[YouChew]] thread that Metzgorrre made for the match documents 6 rounds, the match in fact lasted twice as long, with 12 rounds made in total.

	It was the eighth match played by Kurkop and the sixth match played by Metzgorrre. The full match has been left in a presumably permanently incomplete state since late 2010 due to the deletion of Kurkop's Round 1, 3, 5 and 7; it is surmised that Kurkop may have had perfectionist tendencies in this era that necessitated the deletion of only these rounds -- along with all of his tennis material before late 2010 -- as his Round 9 and 11 continue to survive unlisted and were able to be archived with the rest of his surviving tennis work.

A frenetic, intense and effect heavy style is exchanged between both players that arguably showed Metzgorrre reaching his full maturity as a creative voice during his brief year-long foray into the tennis world; among things traded between rounds include words masked out of the previous rounds in the early rotations, the fourth and fifth rotation (Rounds 7 and 8 and Rounds 9 and 10) featuring heavy use of generated sample text, the atmospheric nature of the final two rotations, and a usage of After Effects on both sides across the entire match to greatly expand the visual scope of what is traded. Metzgorrre's Round 6, "Cricetinae pelote faex makarona רעסאַפּיז", is sometimes misattributed to rapskallionxyz/mYZterbattyX due to an error by Peskeh, who archived the latter's work, mistakenly including a file of the round in their archives when restoring rapskallion's surviving videos to an archival YouTube channel despite the original upload still being public. The match has, despite its fractured nature, continued to be an enduring influence on subsequent generations including {{dani_phantump}} and {{VerityLarsen}}, who created public reuploads of Kurkop's Round 9 and 11 to YouTube in March 2024, and has achieved a degree of myth and speculation around its missing content into the present day.

	[[Kurkop vs. Metzgorrre]] was a [[Youtube Poop]]/Video [[tennis]] match that took place between sometime before July 27 and October 7, 2010. The players agreed upon the common rule that no sources were to be added after the serve (though Metzgorrre briefly included a picture he presumably created himself in Round 2) with the match overall being fairly condensed in length; every round created was between 15 and 35 seconds long.
