KILLERS.

This was a very close battle, I felt both verses were very high quality but after my first read I thought I had a winner and my opinion didn't change on subsequent readings.

Lil Kilo had a whole lot of internal rhyming which was effective to a certain point and which did enhance your punches. However, I think it was probably overused a bit here, in that many of your punches weren't executed as well on the wordplay/metaphors/flips side because the abiltity to bring this to the table was compromised by the amount of rhyming going on. This also affected the cleanness of your wording and how natural your lines seemed at times. Of course this was only by marginal amounts, but in the LBT Title Match against someone with the calibre of Rai they become fatal.

Rai by contrast had a small amount of internal rhyming, but where it was used it was only where it fitted in really well and helped to expand on the wordplay instead of compromising it. Furthermore, I just generally felt the wordplay Rai brought was more consistent. Lil Kilo started off with some really interesting and varied lines, the "chores with mum" line stuck in my mind as amusing, but I felt this quality died off as the verse wore on. Rai meanwhile was consistent at a very complex conceptual level throughout the verse.

Finally, Lil Kilo had a couple of multies which just seemed a bit off to me. Specifically "take it with ya best lines cos/ated in a cell cycle", the "lines cos/cycle" bit doesn't work for me any way I read it. Rai pre-emptively called you out for your multies, which meant that this doubly hurt how much I could enjoy your verse and increased how hard-hitting I felt Rai was.

Good battle, not much in it, maybe an 8.1 vs an 8.5 or something like that. Good luck to both in the title match!

Good lukc, Rai.... It's EoA

EoA!!!

both did awesome here, both incorporated personals including "row" references in all due respect, but I think Lil Kilo takes this battle. He had great flow, wp, and delivery w/ complexity. Several rhymes didnt sound alike like " ones and loss" for example but other than that great job. Rai was cool too, put alot of effort to his 32 lines as well, dissed ur opponent, but the flow was a little off for me, but it was nice. i didnt know ur namewas prounoued 'ray' i thought it was like 'rye' but good job both of u, fvno h8

Expo...

1. Bridget Collins lives in a cottage in a movie called stranger things. Set as in movie set, & also as in multi sets. Bloops=bloopers which are between the set fails and funny mess ups.

2. Soldiar Boy came out with that "crank that" song with a dance. He also did his music out of a closet before the fame.  Stokers are a brand of cigarettes. Faggit as in gay, also as in slang for a cigarette.

3. Mantaray's are harmless.

Any further expo needed. PM.

Good luck, Ki.

Proof vote, Rai took it with better punches.

Proof vote. Rai had the better punches.

Ummm.....^

Wtf's a proof vote? Lmao 

Rai had the better punches on this here.

Impressive battle.

Positives - Kilos had a few with the claening with momand the medusa bit while rai had his moments with skateboarders, no weight bit, double sided coin and man ta ray.

Shortcomings - kilo had lows in the point of multis, his set ups were a little too long making the punchline seem faded and other than the medusa bit the greek god references seemed stretched and a little weak overall and average show but Rai took things way here, the times when he had the metaphors and all the creativity was pretty brutal and had the surprise element as well along with the humour as well which is what any punchline should be like.

Wordplays - Rai

Metaphors - Rai

Punchlines - Rai

Multis - Rai 

Personal - Tie

Overall, kilo's verse felt like a low 6 while Rai's felt like a mid to high 7.

fairs in, Rai gets this, congratulations to both the participants for am impressive showing too!

Not going to give a long drawn out expo challenger came wit a punch heavy drop extremely skilled couple shots are haymaker status got personal on both sides champ defended his title well with the same as his opponent but had some fresh ideas that really resonated with me two of the hardest working on the site today if either need a detailed expo hit me and I will provide it much RESPECT felt like the champ took this with a bit more finesse and style fairs in

damn this was a very solid battle but one as feeling one here had the edge for me. My fair is tossed fellas

rai had it for me

Good match Fair Vote 

Honestly good battle!

Both verses was well put together, multies, flow, etc. very clean..so for me it can down to punches and I felt Rai took this category with a few more harder & humorous ones. Kilo did his thang tho’ and really brought it with the little time he had to write..props to both.

Very close one but rai had more shots and i liked his multys more. 

I enjoyed both verses but a few of Rai's punches stood out to me and i felt Rai was stronger here.. i also liked how smooth his verse was.. Gb

Tossup becuase I don't know who was better. Might give the edge to
