This was DaftPunkYoshi's only full match played after he had left behind [[Windows Movie Maker]] following the [[3-Way Tennis Tournament]] in 2010 and shifted to [[Adobe Premiere]] Elements. Many of his familiar stylistic hallmarks carried themselves over well in his handling of this new editor; as he was already known to pull off keyframing and layering tricks in the former software, here he was able to do this with ease, no longer needing exterior plugins nor needing to navigate software jank in order to make such editing possible. Aside from some new effect embellishments and greater use of extra video layers, the stutter/repetition heavy style he had made himself known for was still very much intact, as was his preference for video game-related material, vintage anime and house music as his preferred source pool. SergeantBacon's rounds are ambitious in their intent and arguably unintentionally set the stage for the rounds that were to happen following his departure, with his Round 2 attempting to create a YTPMV syncopation to "Flight Tonight"(2000) by The Avalanches and Round 4 opting for an extreme avant-guarde approach, mostly featuring a great selection of artworks by the legendary surrealist painter Salvador Dali, including ''Autumnal Cannibalism''(1936), ''Spider of the Evening''(1940), ''Metamorphosis of Narcissus''(1937), ''Uranium and Atomica Melancholica Idyll''(1945), ''Tuna Fishing''(1967), ''Soft Construction with Boiled Beans (Premonition of Civil War)''(1936), ''Geopoliticus Child Watching the Birth of the New Man''(1943) and ''Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee Around a Pomegranate a Second Before Awakening''(1944). Round 4 was his final tennis round until “10VISION_ROUND1_2017_06_07”(2017), a collaborative doubles serve made with Dozzyrok for the [[Doubles Cup 3]].

With Baycun becoming replaced by ChrisGendo, who regarded DaftPunkYoshi's musical Round 5 as "perfectly up my alley to volley"<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/19-tennis-completed/76145-daftpunkyoshi-vs-sergeantbacongendo/1#post-3848634</ref>, the match becomes almost fully musical for the remainder of its length, driving all of its edits around selected music for each response that include "Fallen Angel feat. Aimee B"(2010) by Mitsunori Ikeda, "Spaced Invader (J Majik Remix)"(2001) by Hatiras, "Untrust Us"(2008), "Pap Smear"(2010) and "Year of Silence"(2010) by Crystal Castles and "The Spirit (DJ Sneak Mix)"(2008) by Gene Farris. The disjointed nature of the first half of the match thusly becomes resolved by a much more thematic and consistent second half, with the visuals of the match working in tandem with the music to deliver an ethereal, synesthetic experience from both sides.

It was the 52nd match completed by ChrisGendo<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/2#post-1946658</ref> and the 22nd and final match to be completed by DaftPunkYoshi<ref>https://ftlfw.net/archives/websites/youchew.net/archive/forum/16-poop-tennis/30906-poop-tennis-roster-thread/2#post-1662758</ref>; he attempted to restart another unfinished match originally with LieutenantMiles as his opponent (who was replaced by {{dani_phantump}} for Round 4) but no further rounds were ever made. Only ChrisGendo's rounds survive in their original uploads - SergeantBacon's original account was terminated in late April 2011 with his rounds for this match eventually being reuploaded, and DaftPunkYoshi's account was terminated in September 2016 but fully archived ahead of time, along with his own reuploads of his rounds of the match on his subsequent account "DiscoNRG Lucario". It was first compiled into a single video on the YouWouldBeWelcome account in September 2025.
