I thought this wasn't a bad bout at all, both verses neglected the punchlines a little but went hard out with the rhymes, which made this feel almost like the transcript of a song or something. The end result was great to read, and overall I saw Manhattan winning it reasonably comfortably with better punchlines, cleaner and more consistent rhhyming and some impressive scheming.

Mrs Ominific your closer was potentially your best line, really clever way of flipping what was originally self hype into a solid punch.  However your verse in general was held back by two things, firstly that the rhymes weren't always working ("matriarchy/whos scrawny"); and secondly that some of your multis seemed forced (what does "swayed for collision" mean?).

Manhattan overall this was a pretty solid verse, although I can see you were prioritising scheming and rhyming here in the 'throwaway bars' so I won't nitpick every detail of everything. One thing that stuck out to me as a negative was that the crows bar had a cool concept, but was worded weirdly and didn't really make sense to me reading it. I liked your closer, it really stuck with me the most because even though I could see where it was going it was fun to watch it play out.

oops I meant to give Manny a 7 there

Just had some throwaway bars to get rid of ;)

Alright nice lil battle here, one was a lil shakes for me, some of the multis were hella broken, had a few good concepts but ii feel as if they could've been executed better, the winner edged it here with a slightly batter drop, a bit more concrete, and some nice punching. Battle again try to amaze us.
