Holy shit this was a bar fest. Row, your first scheme in the first half was dope. The Chopper line, the donkey kong line were we'll executed and I liked the concepts and the way you worded them. I felt that the dad plays got s bit redundant and at sometimes, mediocre because of the predictability. The gandi punch was well executed but the concept was basic. I liked how you strung everythig together to form multiple punches in a single scheme rather than a single heavy punch. The "tentacle" wordplay was nice and I get the Pokemon reference with it but I felt that "ten Ta cool with" sounds a bit awkward. I liked how you setup the smokey punch with the setup (the Chinese love) supporting the build up to the punch with the choppy English bit. I think the concept in itself was basic but the way you framed it was dope and required a lot of thought. The waffle line was dope. And like I said earlier about the Dad flips, you did try to flip it creatively with the Stephen curry line but the main core flip (about Dad being the root of the concept) was still basic. I felt that the prom/punch line is dated and the "Cap hook" was filler. Other than that, this was a decent verse. I really liked how you stringed in the setup to the build up and then stringed the build up to the punch in a smooth way without forcing it or making the wording sloppy. Daddio, that opener was funny as shit, the needing an extra hand line was funny. Plus the ten with the bars/bringing chicks line was well executed even though like Row, the concept was a bit predictable. The transparent line, I had used it before but the way you flipped it with (came out as in coming out the closet) the build up was dope. Moreover the fact that you did it in a single scheme was marvelous. The Eazy E line and the straight OUTTA comp punch were well connected together in terms of punches and setups and the analogy was clever. The new era/fitted in with the Bulls was clever as a punch too. The second scheme was straight fire and that Mascot line and the fire cracker line were two sick haymakers. I felt the coring contractors/boring setups line was a decent concept on its own but I felt you could have had a relevant setup to it. It was more of a jab. The mortal Kombat scheme was decent, I liked the Baraka,Sektor and the Shang Tsun line. I felt that you had dope concepts for those characters to string in within the Scheme. Sub see row/subzero felt a bit forced but overall it was a decent show of scheming and props for conceptually scheming with the same rhyme scheme too. Overall i felt your verse was undoubtedly dope and had four or five haymakers and some really good punches which were well setup. I feel that my loser focused too much on predictable nameplay even though he had some dope punches otherwise. If he had used the space to craft some more creative punches with some more clever analogies, he might have gotten the battle. My winner was well polished with relevant setups and wording with haymakers every now and then which is tough in a 32. Fair is in. Really good battle. Voted: DaDDiO /

Rohaan's already dropped a hella long expo, so I'll be brief. Row: Your scheming was mismatched in some places. It flowed fluidly. The concepts though were mainly contrived. They were funny and well-executed but not especially creative. DaDDiO: The scheming here was great, although slanted in some places. I was impressed how well you strung obvious shit together to make strong punches. The bring home a 10 bar was excellent. Overall: One dude was cleaner, more creative, and more effective. No hate to either though. High-Mid. Fair's in. Comment Only

Barnanas.....Like the transitioning fro Both, multies were a stalemate. my winner had the fresher concepts overall. my loser had the better flow and personals but Some of hia concepts were awkward at times. leaning a tad more this way tossing 9's though. Voted: DaDDiO /

This was *dope*. Don't really feel I can add a lot to my expo other than that I thought both came with it, so I edged it to the one who I thought had the best individual bars. Crazy stuff! Voted: DaDDiO /

Wow what a dope read here yall. I quite had a hard time finding which verse I enjoyed more but my vote goes to the one I felt had the punches that strung out more for me! Return them Faye's to both. One. Voted: DaDDiO /

This was deffo an entertaining read from both here. Both had some real nice bars in this battle. One flowed smoothly from bar to bar, other had one or two issues w/ wording/readability but had some fresh concepts and executed a lot of them really well. The wp in this battle was nice also. Overall: a 32 that's worthy of the hotlist spot for sure. Fairs in, i'm out. (9-9) Voted: DaDDiO /

Ima jus keep my expo short & sweet, one came border-line elementary nd needs ta elevate on his concept game but the relevancy, on his punches to his setups, was spot-on, nd his flow was rock solid! The winner was a lil more complex nd hardbody, needless to say. The scheme he went the most with is rather played, but a side note; it never gets old. :high: I actually wanted to give this to the other, but I feel his highlights didn't match well against my choice's best lines in this.

Great battle. Both brought some proper hay makers as far as relevant set ups and hard hitting punches. Both had a few played concepts, wordplay, and multi stretches. On that note, this was incredibly even. One started strong, had some filler jabs in the middle, and ended decently. The other started decent, had a strong center, and some filler jabs towards the end that felt anti-climatic. Both each had at least 3 outstanding and complex set ups and punchlines that were very fresh, and that is commendable to say the least. This could easily go either way, but Im thinking one took this with just a tad more consistency in throwing effectively setup punches, but could have easily lost this to my loser if they had edited more to tighten up a couple weak areas of their verse where at least one punch that was good conceptually was poorly executed along with higher risk personals and "name flips" that were falling just a little short. This could go either way as a toss up, but I am leaning towards the slightly more solid build of a verse.... once again, despite both being somewhat anti-climatic with their finishers. MAD RESPECT 2 both these text vets. FV in. Voted: DaDDiO /

Fire from both the whole way through. Very impressive, guys. Winner had better set-ups that allowed his punches to connect more, but there was no real loser here, this is classic material. Voted: DaDDiO /
