* In mid beta, LordZeloxy and Cronotious conducted tests involving the [[Prototype X-1]] and the '''Prototype X-2''' and which ship would come out on top in a battle. One test was purely DPS and the other was an actual battle, however these tests went to Zeloxy's head, and he later lost his ship. Since then, as of 7/31/2021 seehyadued52 and greenninja010 have done an updated battle.
