KILLERS...that blue gonna look good on you Z

KILLERS. 

Good shit Fiddy, GL!

The only stuff that might need an expo off the top of my head:

Ticket is considered one of the all-time great battlers on LB.

Rai (one of his crewmates in Killers) was blamed for biting a (shitty) joke from the internet a few months ago.

In his recent match against Lockhart he had a bar about liposuction, a plastic surgery technique where fat is suction out through a needle under your skin, which can cause swelling as a side-effect.

If anyone needs an expo on anything further hmu over IMs, PMs or Discord though.

Punk vote and comment deleted per his request.

Expo: Erykah Badu is a singer who recently released her vagina scented incense.

Arms = Weapons. Korean men walk leaning forward with their arms behind their backs.

Forefathers/ 4 fathers.

Clapping/Shooting guns…Trap drums consist of multiple kicks and claps lol

Wendy Williams took pictures at the beach and it was a horrible sight.

GL Kiwi, good shit.

KILLERS

Fidel: Absolutely fire drop here. In the entire piece there was two, possibly three punchliens i wasn't particually feeling but were still solid and creative. Smooth read.  Rest of your shit was dope, man. Props. Great read here. Hope Kiwi came with it, cause this is a tough set of bars to beat. Kiwi: Another impresseive set of bars here. Had a few punchlines i wasn't particularly feeling, creative, just, imo, didn't hit that hard. Had other bars that were solid though. A smooth read fro start to fiinish as well. This one really is a close one here. I think it comes down to persoanl preference as both brought some really good material and both had an enjoyable read here. Fairs in, fellas. Best of luck to both. 

amazing battle here shit was a heater tbh. two different styles at their full glory shit was a worthy final. both maintained a pretty high level with their punches an imm a be quoting only a few instead of all of them like the forfathers, korean men and 808 ones from fidel while kiwi's opening z lines and guillotine and letbeef in five years shit LMFAO were all haymaking BOTBS for me. what helped me make my decision was the consisteny that each had and even tho the difference was not too much i kinda got fidel edging it here. 

Dope battle. Nothing negative to say on rhyming or execution or anything from both. Just a fantastic battle (which is refreshing). I got this going to kiwi by a narrow margin. His schemework really impressed me at the start and I think he had a couple punches I was really feeling a little bit above and beyond. Could easily go to Fidel as well though. He had a great verse. But, I think Kiwi just hit a couple times extra on the top end and when both were so clean and consistent, that's what made the difference to me.

Fidel: I think your bars were good. Nothing too far out of the box cleverness wise and a couple iffy one (Deads Kin) or simplistic ones (don cerrone) but solid overall in terms of hitting. I think this verse is one of those where the ideas are good but would be even better if just push a TAD bit more in terms of flipping to make us hit that screw face ya know. lol but that closer was dope to me, fav of your verse. Even tho arm bars are a bit done I love the imagery of the Korean dude too. lol

Kiwi: your opener was meh but the rest was crack imo. Loved the ticket bar. You had some played stuff in there a (mike jack, 50, vegetable)but the execution was nice. 

Honestly i felt Kiwi take this with punches that hit harder for me conceptually. Both had great showings and good luck to the winnner. fairs in guys

Good battle from both but I had my winner after one read. Fidel Z had some good punches like blueprint, gambling type, and Erykah Badu's incense, but there was also a bunch of lines here that I wasn't feeling at all. Offside/offsite and 808/8 or ate both were reachy imo, quadruple faggots and Donald Cerrone didn't impact me at all, and a bunch of others I just thought were meh ("paul"bearers, old korean men, wendy williams... etc.) Kiwi I thought was coming with consistently harder hits couopled with a more readable, flowy execution.  Not all of it was great but there were no real low spots in the verse. Bars that stood out included the one about Rai, mail fraud, strip poker, tickets (very long and kind of obscure but worth it imo), tying the knot (even though it's really similar to something EtH had against Rant lol). Other stuff - like vegetable, catching Z's, guillotine, liposuction - was just decent but still nicely executed and kept the pace between stronger hits. So I've got Kiwi preserving his LBT title pretty clearly here despite a great effort from Fidel. Good luck to both. Fair's in.

Fidel: opener was nice. Blue print line was clever. Offsite wp was stretched so was dead skin..wording didn't work. Had a couple concepts in there we've seen before but overall not too bad of a drop.

Kiwi. Obvious progression since Rookie tourney. The catching z's/ rafter beams punches were nice. The rai line was dope. Middle of the verse could have used some more punch strength.

Man this is tough but I think I gotta give it to kiwi for bringing the more creative concepts and staying more consistent throughout.

Okay so some Thots for you guys. I am typically very forgiving of rhymes that might not fit perfectly if the flow is still decent, but Fidel you had several rhymes that I don't think were even close.  I also thought that a fair amount of the wording was awkward. The ideas generally ranged from pretty good to just okay.  I definitly think the fact that this was a 32 hurt you in the sense that it didn't feel as tight and consistent as I would have liked. for Kiwi I definitley thought that you had a solid flow and good wording throughout, that's hard to do in a verse this long. Idea wise it didn't always do that much for me. There were some alright bars in there, but a lot of ideas I didn't really feel were that impactful. I'm going Fidel as I think his verse hit harder. I thought it was pretty close. 

Straight barn burner heree. Appreciate ya'll for writing some 32 bars on ranked and being firee. Leaning towards Kiwii here my man flowed nice and schemes were hot
