From the jump, it was clear both teams were there to have fun, trading intricate punches for wild, off-the-wall personals.

Dumb and Sahtyre's relentless barrage of height jokes against Illmaculate and their seemingly intoxicated energy made the battle a comedic masterpiece, while Saurus and Illmac's sharp multis and clever flips kept the battle fiercely competitive. The clash was so evenly matched it spilled into a sudden death overtime round. There, the endurance and focus of the WRC champions, The Saurus and Illmaculate, allowed them to edge out a victory against a gassed Dumb and Saht.
