Oh good gOd you gotta fix that left align...it wasn't showing up like that when I was writing it...and it won't let me edit it... btw I should add, I'm not gonna be too fussed about 'free posts' in here...in the sense it doesn't JUST need to be verses and votes...obviously if you take advantage of that then one of Scooter's henchmen will go in on you, but posts here and there are OK... for a nine-round battle that's gonna last weeks and involve 10 people, I'd rather not have a separate 'discussion thread' for it...so, yeah...enjoy

Casse-toi! You lonely cunt....  Just "Pardon my French" while I shit on your lines

Cause my 'shots'll leave you by your Nanna's side' like you should've been when she died

Your a miserable fuck, posting your birthday in hopes to get some wishes kid??

Even your grandmother missed the shit, so he had his sweet 16 with the syndicate -___- eesh!!

but You know my 'head shots have his sauce leaking' and staining up his noodle

Until I get this 'dugout to dissappear' quicker than Shea Stadiums Removal

Look at the difference.. If I get no sleep, everyone's concerned.. That's not the way you live it up
You post it... and even scotty came to say that... 'NOBODY GIVES A FUCK'!!
(so just leave and stay off)

Expo:

Bar 1 - Grandma/Nanna Death In OM says he was in 'french' when it happened.. 'Pardon my french' phrase reference, it also says he shoulda been by her side
Bar 3 - Dugout/Doug Out, Shea Stadium
Go my Minions!

ATTENTION. if youre a dumbfuck who can't slant rhyme then don't vote... Line 5 and 6 have a slant rhyme. 

Bar 2: He has trouble sleeping. 

he's got ammo in this BR? Nah... I'll buy him Halo 2
I'll quad shot law and leave chief sleepin without his cryogenic tube
Somebody hand this insomniac an ambien... but let the cameras film
Because in his dreams is the only time somebody ever cared for him
No labels made aware of him... I'm here to cause an uproar
Found his homosex traits and forced em straight, applause (up law's)
All his bars are average.. he's snoozin' with the cabbage patch
When he's robbing mickey D's is the only time he's packin macs..

Ok you opened with a raw gritty personal, i love it, no holds barred attitude as it should be. Thing is it weren't really a strong punchline, like i know the personal was hard but it could have been turned into an awesome punch with like a metaphor or something, still though because of the personal its quite a good opener. Referenced his grandmother again, maybe in the second bar move on from that topic, but i know that wasn't the main focal point of the second bar so it doesn't take too much away, the personal is another good one, but again maybe turning it into a nice punchline with a metaphor or something would have further increased its effect. Oh snap i love the 3rd bar, that's what I'm talking about with your punches that 3rd one is on point, the wordplay works, its a good nameplay which results in a great bar. The fourth bar was good, it had sick flow and again another solid personal hit, like the first two though i felt like it could have been turned into a sick punch, but the personal kinda makes up for it.

Overall: the personals are all solid and its a great verse. Would have been even better had the personals been worked into SOLID punches.

When he's robbing mickey D's is the only time he's packin macs..

I had to google cryogenic tube, something about keeping things frozen? The thing about video games and bullets/ammo/guns/shots etc is that its kinda played dude. It wasn't the best opener, i thought you would come out swinging but it didn't make me jump out of my seat. The second bar has a kool personal, the whole sleep thing, i just felt as though it could have been worked into a much better punch than what you dropped "in his dreams is the only time someone cared for him" it kinda sounds like a setup and a hard hitting punch is to follow. With the slanted rhyme the wordplay does work. But what has the word applause got to do with the rest of the bar? The point of wordplay is to have that double meaning, i can't see that here dude. Its an okayish bar but again I've seen better stuff from you. Ok i'll be honest, the macs and mcdonalds thing is super played man, I'm sorry it just is. And its usually used the way you used it "packin macs" "bring more macs" "put the mac to your face" etc etc.

Overall: its disappointing, i expected a lot more from you dougy and I've definitely seen better drops from you. Be more creative.


Verdict: i gotta give it to law, he came with harder personals and his punchlines hit harder.

Winner: The Law

Yeah, pretty clear advance for Law here...harder punches, sharper disses...Dougy didn't really bring any kind of tenacity in return.

I agree with a lot of what Arthur said, that said: 

Law: To be honest, I didn't think this was as hot as people have said. I like the fact that you jab and punch throughout the lines, which will be effective in a shorter battle. More hits will do more damage. The opener is pretty hard hitting for the personal fact, a death in the family. Though I wasn't a big fan of the play or the way you phrased it. Using what he said could be seen as quite fitting, but to me, it's just reiterating a statement. Next bar was okay, again it's personal, which is good, but he posted up his own birthday, so what? It has the potential for a good punch, but it's more like stating a fact. 3rd bar was probably your best for me as it's a nice play, though im a little unsure of the wording, 'dug-out to disappear' I get dugout as in baseball, but the other way I don't really see how it works? If his name was dugout, then fair enough, but the other way seems awkwardly worded to me. 4th bar again seems to be more fact stating. You have a straight forward style. Which I can see working well, but my preference is cleverness, humour, wittiness etc. You had nice personals and you know how to construct a good verse. To me it's obvious you know what you're doing, but I just thought you could have done a little more. I'm maybe being overly critical, as I expected a lot based on everyones expectations of you. 

Dougy: I think you had a decent chance here, but this verse wasn't enough to do it. Starting off by calling the potential voters, dumbfucks lol, isn't the best idea. This may sound stupid, but it seems to me the way people style their verses has an effect on the voters minds. If you look at yours vs laws in purely look, laws blows yours away, he has the nice expos, the centre text (lol) the brackets, the big ups etc, yours seems more slapped down. To me, it may seem ridiculous, but it can effect how someone reads a verse. Things like exclamation points and question marks can add to a verse. Putting emphasis on the right parts etc. In the future I would consider cleaning that up and putting more into that side, as it's the little things that make the difference. Apart from that: First bar, i would have swapped the two lines, I liked the first one and wasnt a fan of the second. Using BR is clever and is good material, but it's a very specific shot and not everyone is going to be able to get behind it. Second bar I don't get at all, this isn't really a personal, hardly a punch, unless i'm missing something? No one's gonna read that and think it's killer, the basic punch is: 'No one likes you', if thats it, then it's gonna fall flat. 3rd bar is okay, that stuff is pretty played out, applause/up laws, is clever, but it needs to be made into a harder hitting play. 4th bar is the same problem. So he doesn't pack guns? This is a forum. I doubt many people are actual gangsters who actually own and shoot guns. You have to think when you're writing a punch, 'is this gonna make my opponent look worse?' Two of your punches where, no one cares for him and he doesnt own guns. People are gonna read that and think, so what? It needs to be more personal, more creative and more unique. You have potential. You have the right ideas, but haven't developed them fully. You need to look at more top verses and incorporate more of their aspects into yours. You could have the sickest play ever, but if the punch is: 'you have no friends', it's still not gonna be killer. If you keep writing and take on board from other people, I think you can go far. But this wasn't your best effort I don't think. 

All that said, Law is the more experienced battler and it showed. Hopefully both come out swinging next round. 

Vote: The Law.
