#REBELSCUM

Good battle here. Gonna edge this one to EtH for the more creative use of his concepts from start to finish that really hit Rican in a fresh and clever way. Shining shoes punch was my favorite one along with prove he's not Stalin. Felt you coulda done more with the fake mustache line but overall your verse was very solid from top to bottom. Rican you had more of a variety of concepts in your verse and in a way I feel that kinda handicapped you because you weren't really building on your ideas in the way that Dave was to throw some real haymakers. The concepts you did have were pretty good though. I actually liked the Finnish Hymn line (although the setup was kind of a reach), and the suicide closer was dope for sure. Overall the deciding factor was how well EtH built on his concepts here and that got him the W.

amazing from both parties but one stood out for me it was smoother with creative punches and concepts...........................................................................................................................

I'mma Murder some Rebelscum in a bit. 

|M|U|R|D|A|

Just read Eth's bars... Nice and made me spill my midday gin, cunt. Now i'll read Ricans. Ok... After reading Ricans. Noway my over tired ass is breaking this down bar for bar, if you want it broken down bar for bar... suck my left nut. Dave has solid from start to finsih a solid flow, smoothness to his lines. There isn't anything complex, nothing in that realm at all but with the way he's straight to the point, he doesn't need them. He has a comicial air to his punches as his natural sarcastic character shines though. 

Rican: You lack the smooth fluiditiy that EtH has in his piece. But you have what he lacks, complex/more creative concepts. You also have some really good punchlines and some i don't get (American references). I feel if you had a smoother transisition from bar to bar you'd be doing far greater, in general. This really is a close one here guys. But i have to be hoenst and go with the bars that hit and made me kinda go 'Oh My' as well as laugh too. Dave for the win. Since it's a 32. I'm giving you both 9's. 

MURDAAAAAAAA

Very similar caliber here. The sort of "Talk you through the facts with backhands as i go" style from eth really intrigued me. Rican didn't come to play either but the punchlines weren't quite as memorable to me. I feel like he could have won this but underestimated the ability of his opponent.

this battle was pretty evenly matched here infact a certain contender for the battle of the tourney for sure other than the REZN and Celsius one. Eth had a solid opener and closer and that Lock bar esp was the BOTB for me he got a dangerouns hold with personalf flips and that showed in his verse here the mexican border line was funny as fuck too which made it 4 real solid hits from him for me while Rico had pulled out one of his best tourney verses till date !! at the top of hig game with those witty wordplays coming outta nowhere and surprisng the reader shit was nice and very entertaining loved the finnish hym bit while the dizaster flip was a nice flip on current events. Teppanyaki could be more appealing had it been somthing more common like candle light dinner or something but still imma half fux with that but hooter waitress shit was the LMFAO shit which surprised me and made up for it lolthe dropping tiers and grave sights were nice puns too overall imo Rico just had more punchlines in his verse which is making me lean towards him and if ETH had even a single additional haymaker punch like that lock one this would have gone to him thats how close this battle was and the very fact that you guys did this shit with such consistency in a 32 is admirable so extra points definitely for that man !! Dope showing bros!

This was a solid battle. I think both got pretty personal with eachother here. You can tell there's a history here. There's a couple bars from Dave that I didn't hardly care for such as the shining shoes but for the most part I enjoyed everything else. The Miranda rights bar made me lol and I enjoyed the Lockhart reference. My only issue with the verse was it fell flat in a section or two. Same goes for Rican. I think he had the better concepts but he also fell flat in a couple places. The closer in particular didn't resonate with me at all as a reader. The X reference and dead giveaway lines were my favorite. Overall these were similar. Both had high and low lights and I feel one just edged the other when it came to an overall verse. I only have the winner taking it by .1 due to the concept department. 7.2 to 7.3. 

Pretty good performance from both here. But, one edged this to me with the more comical verse, and clever concepts which outshone their opponent's efforts to a degree. My winner also added stronger creativity to their personal angles, which were more easily identifiable, and proven to be true in comparison to his opponent's. 

For the simple fact that you two both typed 32 lines earns both of you 10's in my book. I know how hard it is to craft a 16, let alone a 32...so respect for that. Now for my vote...I read the verses a few times each and on different days just to get a refreshed point of view on things, and I have Rican taking this one. Both of you started off strong. Both of you had a good amount of punches and both of you had highs and lows. I'm not gonna go through it because there's 64 lines here and I'd be writing an essay breaking down the good and bad of what I saw. What I can say is I feel Rican had the better overall verse because he remained at a higher level, more consistently than his opponent did. Eth did a hell of a job conceptually but his execution was poor at parts because of wording issues or simplicity. Such as repeating AWAY in his last few lines or the scheme before that being choppy because of syllable discrepencies. Those by themselves aren't too bad of examples of dropping the ball, but when your verse has a certain amount of them it can obviously bring it's impact down. Fair is in. Great battle guys.

I went with Rican, I just felt his rap had a deeper meaning through out it aespecially the middle bit. But it was a really  really really close one as I also liked EtHs multis. (from what my understanding of a multi is.) Sorry still learning about all this. So yes well done to both but Rican I vote for you.

good battle, i had it eth
