As soon as only a matter of months after the match's completion, it was being celebrated, documented and discussed in detail not only for being the first match ever played, but also as a match of fantastic quality and entertainment value in its own right. Round 5 and 6 in particular continue to be praised and remembered for the earth-shattering precedents that they set for the visual, energetic and musical editing present across both videos. Round 5's audio was originally intended to be edited properly by Conrad, but he subsequently left it as he originally heard it, stating that it "blew his head off" upon playback.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/72915-poop-tennis-retrospective-the-first-match-in-history/1.html</ref> He would also praise Misselaineous10's Round 6 as "a benchmark of extremism", further adding in retrospect “I think that last round is beautiful and amazing and perhaps one of the reasons why people wanted to try tennis out for themselves.”<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/72915-poop-tennis-retrospective-the-first-match-in-history/1.html</ref> {{RabbitSnore}} summarized the match aptly as "a paragon of [video] tennis, the [rounds] superb, the editing never lazy. This is the way [video] tennis ought to be played." He also around the same time referred to it as the best tennis match he had ever seen, going on to give particular praise to Miss10's Round 6 as a favorite and highlight.

This match is often seen as setting a template for much of the tennis that was to follow after it, with Round 5 and 6 of this match in particular being seen as a gateway to many matches that would rely on increasingly intense visual and aural editing to the extent that it would become the dominant image of tennis entirely. This was among the handful of matches that received reference in RabbitSnore's early tennis document ''The Observational Guide to [YTP] Tennis'', which also named the matches [[Stegblob vs. TyrannosaurusReich]], [[BMATF vs. UncleChuckTH vs. Wikiwow]], [[Wikiwow vs. UncleChuckTH]], [[Thereisnospoon303 vs. RabbitSnore]], and [[MilkR0und vs. Y2Zero]]<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/56-archive/75585-an-observational-guide-to-poop-tennis/1.html</ref>, and was one of few to carry over into the revised versions published on [[YellowTealPurple]] in 2025.<ref>https://yellowtealpurple.net/forums/threads/the-revised-observational-guide-to-video-tennis.1962/</ref> In 2026, UncleChuckTH observed: | ||
