rutt, I like the punchline a lot, but the set up could have been improved imo.

so this was a tricky one.
i liked what both had to offer and i think that each had specific wins within the criteria, but what is the sum?

all else being close to equal i went with the overall concept. to me the image of Rutter having a photo taken beside his slain opponent is just too good.

props to both tho.

This was a close one. Props to both battlers..Rutt had a pretty flawless bar, good rhymes good flow. Nice nameplay.

Con was also very nice with it. Decent flow, the punch was personal and related to this.. I think it could've been worded differently for more effect.

Very close battle between two of Las best..

Ruptured nose bled
Rut this was only OK in my eyes, couple things just didn't work for me. The snapped in half thing felt out of place and the end rhymes felt forced"homie will"....I did get the loose connection between set up and punch, overall it was statement more than punchy

Bonkers at conquered
Con not a big fan of this one either bro, you ain't of the hook yet.. guilty of much the same as Rutt here, so another decent at best shot that should have been better

Difficult one to call but I'm gonna go with Con cos I thought the bar was tied up a bit better from set to punch
Vote Con

yo rut i liked this bar it flowed well, homies will/ trophy kill decent multi
but you went for more of a nameplay thats bin played alot instead of a more personal approach

and con you also went for the name plays but you did add a personal touch to it 
i thought it was clever the way you put it altogether and made it work, real smooth

so for the over all better punch and cleaner shot

Both really well put together bars, both got the aggressive setups leading to decent punches.
It's to find original name flips for guys as battleworn as these - but even if by some miracle con/sealing hasn't been done before, I still consider it yet another prefix flip on him and therefore best avoided. Conversely, I know a lot of people do it, but I'm not a fan of flips that refer to RKB as "Best", or even worse "Knows" ... like it's his middle-name and surname ... always felt that was odd, maybe that's just me, I dunno

So very hard to separate on most categories, so for me comes down to -
Cons has a slightly better flow, and a cheeky little inner on the first line to spice it up a bit
Ruts, sorry if I missed any, but I think "concealing" was the only double-meaning in your verse ...
against "rutter knows best to shut it", "gonna 'punch Best'" and "you're out of your league!"

So great matchup, but MFVGT Con.
