This was a dopeeeee spar gents! Dont wanna give too much away here but basically i felt one had a slow start and thats pretty much what decided it for me. Boths second half was cracksauce, but yeah ones frist 8 or so let them down. Title worthy battle here. 1/

Dope showing from you two. I got Cel after about 4-5 reads with a bit more consistency in his punches from beginning to end. You did have some weaker points in the verse (how much is Rai actually gonna be drippin off a raise working as a dishwasher? Like I get the concept flip, but the double meaning seems kinda farfetched, to me. This was your weakest bar, imo.). You started to really pick up some steam near the end starting with the Raisin Brand punch. Common Netflix problems was your best bar and also BIG FAX since it's hella true. Rai you had some real haymakers in this one like the working with the pigs personal flip. That was fire and BOTB imo, but you just weren't as consistent as Cel was. Laughable chat slang is a really weird multi to end a punch that had some potential to it and the whole drilled on the base bar was really convoluded, imo. Once again a solid showing from you overall.

Forgive Denton he's having problems voting lol

I thought this was a solid spar befitting of a THC title clash. In the end I thought Cel's punches were connecting just a little better with some cleaner execution, so I saw him narrowly winning this. I don't have time to go into as much detail as I'd like here because I need to get to sleep, but if either of you want more in-depth feedback feel free to IM me.

Rai I thought one of your weakest lines was the "Einstein's movements" one, it just seemed really unnatural to me for someone to say "Einstein's movements have been dead for years", also since there was nothing to specifically tie it to Einstein it didn't hit hard whatsoever, it was basically "his style has been dead like a random dead famous person". I really liked your Doctor Strange and Build-a-Bear lines. Your emoji/texting themed opener had a few issues (the cadence is off for "emo, g/emoji", and "laughable chat slang" is just such a weird and unnatural multi) but I actually really really liked the concept, I think if you'd fixed up minor details like that it actually would have been a potential battle-winner (which is pretty good from an opener).

Cel, I barely know Rai, and even I know that he doesn't work as a dishwasher. If you're going to bring up personal angles, either make them actually true, or if they're false at least make them something people won't immediately know is false. I really wasn't feeling your opener, I think it was one of the bars in your verse where the set-up didn't really make sense when read both ways. I really liked your Apple Pay and McLovin lines, and I thought your closer was quite strong.

Expo: Eth(Dave) fed Rai fake personals against his battle with puggz, he retaliated by hate voting eth in the tag tourney(voted for me even tho we in the same crew) He works as a dishwasher IRL, his old account on here was "Anonymus", In 2012 part of the NHLs season was cancelled due to a lockout, in the movie Superbad Mclovin presents a fake ID with no first name.

Good Luck. LoD!!

Rai: your opener had me worried to be honest but the working with the pigs line... damn that shit really came together nicely. thanos line and new era line were nice as well. your closing bars were just alright but your strong ability with setups and multis elevated it a good bit. solid drop

Cel: I appreciate you going personal in your openers. the overall ideas didn't connect with me but I did like the rip off the tag line. and maaaan that apple pay bar was pretty crack. the past interference like was good and I LOVED the mcloving bar. the netflix closer needed work but it was a great idea. great verse (sidenote: next time put the tag line NEXT TO the fake clothes line. MAN that wouldn't snapped being right next to each other.)

This was a really dope read but I'm personally edging it to cel because I felt one or 2 of his punches a bit more.

Expo. He often uses my real name, and that I used to work at a bbq place, so this is a play off that.

Edward is his real name.

Summit films produces the twilight movies. Edward is one of the main characters. 

 good luck Celsius,  real nice verse.

Works as a dishwasher? That is a fake personal man, common now lmfao, everybody knows I work at a plant.

Both of ya’ll snapped.LoD x2 

Feeling cell on this tbh.

KATZ IS MY LAST NAME,

SLASHED ON A BAD DAY!

BACK WITH YA GLAD FACE

LAUGHABLE CHAT SLANG!

These all feel slightly off as far as actually rhyming. I get exactly what he was going for here but i expected more syllables to actually rhyme with eachother. Someone with a lesser name than rai would have this pointed out but i feel like I'm gunna be getting a lot of dissagreement on this bit.

To start props on both for sick 32's. 

Rai - I thought the verse was consistent for the most part. Opening and closing bars were the highlights for me. I also like the build a bear bar. Thought the burgers on the pit/working with the pigs concept was slightly off. I mean there is a such thing as pork burgers, but lets face it you were talking about beef which is cow, but I get the idea and the bar came of smooth aside from that. I thought the new era bar was meh, seen to many of those, but other than that solid verse all around. 

Cel - I almost felt your verse was the polar opposite in the sense I didn't like your opening and closing bars and thought your best bars were in middle bulk of the verse. The dripping in the kitchen  bar right after the opening was fire though, as well as the minimum wage, apple pay, and raisin brand bars. 

Ended up having to read this twice and still was scanning over it as I was coming up with who my vote is for. Both of you were very consistent considering it was 32 lines. Close battle. 

wow this was a good battle . both showed level of skill and personals. but imma have to edge this towards Rai for a bit more harder punches and conceptsm Celsius did his thang too the Raisin Brand verse was predictable but was a nice idea. But ya I think Rai gets this one for me. fv noh8

one had harder punches. thats really all it kame down to. both have klean reads and nice flows. both had some dope koncepts. both had small hick-ups with tha scheming but nes punches jus hit alil bit harder to me. but fasho one of tha best battles ive read on here in a minute. 

Fuck this battle was dope. I'm giving 9s to both for the effort & length. I really don't have a complaint about either. Maybe one or two from both sides but for the most part, shit was lit. Both had pretty good punchlines and I was enjoying the set up process for each of them for the most part. I'm just gonna keep it simple with the expo. I was feeling ones verse slightly more than the other. Feel one kept it pretty personal which translated to a more aggressive verse in my eyes. Everything else was borderline equal IMO so it's hard to pick a critiquing point on either. Gave my vote to whom I thought had a more raw verse. Definitely could see it going both ways and expect to see votes for both sides. Good luck fellas and good shit. 

GODAMN that was sick - real talk, Thats the type of text battles i like to read, Okay, RAI - im voting for you because your from North Carolina LOL, i'm joking, - RAI sick shit bro, Metas, flow, punches, Multies all on point, Celsius same. The reason i voted 10 for both because it really is a tough ass choice. ((((When Dave gave Rai dirt on Puggz we saw 'Fam in trouble', he had his CONSCIENCE DISTORTED, And when I saw how "weak your structure became from how you were fed"" I went and SQUANDERED A FORTUNE to SPONSOR AN ORPHAN!/)))) That first bar is what really got me to go with CELSIUS though. FV in Fellahs, keep that shit up

Impressive read here from both. Concepts were nice on both sides. Execution of said concepts were nice too but ones wording was slightly off putting and the lenght between multi sets also hurt him & is what the winner was better with. Props on a good battle, fellas. 

100 -  Respect Tha Dons vote. 

This battle was solid. But, there were some pretty big downsides to both verses. Some of Rai's wording just reads as incredibly unnatural to me, E.G. "Bright white human." People don't really say things like that. And to me, instances in which wording seems unnatural in this way, really brings the verse down in my opinion. Cel, while I dug the personal approach, I feel like it could have been executed in a more complex way. But, the voting line really hit hard for me. That aside, I felt some of your other concepts were a bit basic, and could have been handled in a better way. E.G. the taking a bath line. I liked where you were going with it, but, the "punchline," or ending of the bar itself left a lot to be desired to me. Tough call here. One had smoother wording, the other had more creative and well rounded concepts. I gotta give it to the bars that landed more consistently to me throughout the 32, though. 

Straight up heater of a battle here. Both brought their A-game. I enjoy how much cel has improved the past year. Fairs in boys

LoD

Dope battle here fellas good to see you both putting on for the squad!  LoDshit.

rai had a maybe better flow.. it was close, but rai had the haymakers in the battle.. with the white human sci fi mutant line, and the working with the pigs line was simple, but set up really well.

great battle though

This was a really close battle for me, ii went with my winner cause ii felt he had more punches and constantly attacked. Where as his opponent started off defending himself of accusations. Over ii feel the winner had a more direct approach both pretty dope tbh came to preference pretty much.
