They decide to have a rematch, with Rick switching to Mechanica; Dustin wins again, but in a much closer fight. Rick loses a further two rounds, but is able to finally defeat Dustin on his fifth and sixth attempts. They switch to a new map and characters, with Rick playing Twintelle and Dustin playing Kid Cobra. Rick wins in an extremely close round, and goes on to win the fight after that as well. Finally, they have a tiebreaker on another map, with Rick as Master Mummy and Dustin as Spring Man, in an inversion of their first round; Rick wins the first round easily, and the second one narrowly.
