Brought together by Crow during the draft of Supercard 6 -- SubMan799 & Casselman went beyond their Team Crow origins, exploding onto the scene as one of the hot prospects of the Duo Division in the middle parts of 2011! With the enthusiasm and potential typical of "The Next Phase," the tandem wasted no time challenging some of the biggest pairs for the League, setting themselves the lofty goal of hunting down the likes of Scott-Howell & Murdoink!
The pair achieved the impressive feat of defeating seasoned arch-rivals Scott-Howell & Murdoink at Supercard 9, but continuously struggled to convert their success into Championship gold, remaining on the fringe of the top teams as contender bouts slipped through their fingers. The pairing saw their status dramatically downgraded by 2012, going from #6 to Challenger 7 contenders, between Tower of Powers III and IV.
The stress of a losing streak that included the Tower of Power IV C7 loss created irreperable tensions between Casselman and partner SubMan799, who began appearing more steadily in solo competition. A crushing loss to newcomers, Oozaru & Banging, set about the final demise of the pair, who could clearly no longer co-exist by the time of their final defeat at Supercard 21: The Long Hard Road -- decimated at the hands of m0s & knickxasawrrrr!
Casselman makes it official by challenging SubMan799 to yet another emotionally charged grudge match at the biggest event of the year! It will be a true Test of the Best when this longlived team-up splits in two -- the solo spawning culmination of an intense rivalry for 2012!
