[Incredible]

You got until 11:59 pm EST.

[slecht]

You want to take a no show win for 1hr of the same day?

[slecht]

He can't capture me, I run wild. I am slecht, the assassin of this dumb child.
No need to remain anonymous but I am exposing this fuck, no trump files.
Idiot chump thinks he's fun. All I need is one night...standing by him with the biggest gun
Then point it at him..getting smash till that body ain't seen no more...That's a hit & run.
I carry an eagle. Enough bullets to serve and have smash down.
Desert's with me, & I am firing it up quicker than staff at the burning man camp ground.
At first, his girl won't know when I kill him. She won't be around to check...
Might think it's a murder hoax till I give his miss information...about the death.
I am that gutter. His family will investigate it so I will need a fast cover.
if his siblings want to play games too, I will also get rid of Smash's Brothers.

[SMaSH]

Fuck you up in a timely source wit an unrivaled force, like what is he point in even surviving for? I'll hospitalize you...while playing Pokemon go... Then break in and beat you till your Ivysaur.

[Urban Dialect]

I thought both were pretty lame,

how am I suppose to vote on this shit, and justify one over the other...Trash vs garbage, which one is better?

Really? Eenie meenie meinie moe

[UserName]

I’m gonna vote - Smash but im doing so very reluctantly. Mainly because I really don’t like Smash’s wordplay. It’s just a preference. While it’s witty and creative one way, it’s forced if you actually read it normal. I’ve just never been a fan of that style of wordplay. Nothing personal.

Slecht you didn’t really have anything that seemed witty or creative, you went more for the cold and direct route but had nothing worthwhile that actually felt like an impactful diss. Closest was your Trump line.

So yeah, keep at it guys, both have some work to do but for now...

[Ajax]

Ugh. That wordplay style. It’s so hard to do right, and when it’s done wrong it’s sooo forced.

This was hard to vote on, I think both heads could use a fair amount of practice. The basics are there, but they need to be honed a lot. Smash ended up having better conceptual ideas, but concepts only work well if they’re executed cleanly (and they really weren’t here). Luckily for Smash, Slecht came with less wit... So, he took this one... but I wasn’t particularly impressed with either verse. Keep writing, fellas.

v - Smash

First off:

Cuz they sitting here all dishin (audition) like they trying to make it a show

https://media1.giphy.com/media/dX8RCDCzvb05YcqNEb/source.gif


That wp as forced as unwanted sexual intercourse. Please do not do this; I get depressed constantly seeing forced wp. The fact you even acknowledged how forced it is about to make me Kurt Cobain myself. I'm starting to need trigger warnings, because I'm getting PTSD constantly seeing this shit. All dishin in no way = audition. I tried speaking to myself with Orc's accent, lad. I tried to viva la raza it with Hush's dialect. I even tried to say this shit how Answer would and it ain't fit in no way. So as a reminder, forced wordplay is not good wp.

To the actual battle:

Both verses lacked a large amount of wit or interesting concepts. Both battlers wording struggled a bit too, as slecht elongated his first bar, which hurt a lot of his punches and came off more like filler. Smash had better attempts until that last one, where son thought he was MF Doom or some shit and combinedeveryfuckingthingtheresoitlookedlikethisto myeyes. All in all, this battle is tough to decide, because both guys are not really equipped to battling all that much, but I'd have to go with Smash here. His attempts were better and got a better response to me than slechts, although, I wouldn't say there's a LOTB for either or quotables. Both should spend some time in the archives and read up past battles to see what makes specific styles great to read.

[FGR]

Smash brothers been done alot...I even used it on him in our video battle... Miss informed was okay... Campground was alright..the rest didn't hit for me..nothing that carried weight... Not to creative either no hate... Termite doesn't work for me... Cuz it's ter-mite...not term..so came off forced.. all dishing works with my accent but you didn't go anywhere with it... Last two bars were a miss for me..closer was too wording..and ivy sore isn't a normal thing someone would say..
Vote.. Slecht flip a coin it could go either way but I think he got this

[Wanderer]

Slecht had the opener which needed a better set up & I woulda dug it more
Ur closer was also ok but coulda been real nice with better wording

Smash, Termite came off nice but overall, ur misses were worse than ur opponents to me.. wtf was that last pokemon bar (no hate)

A disappointing battle lads

He can't capture me, I run wild. I am slecht, the assassin of this dumb child.
No need to remain anonymous but I am exposing this fuck, no trump files.
....I didn’t like this . Nothing to sink my teeth into no pun intended . Just was kinda bland
Idiot chump thinks he's fun. All I need is one night...standing by him with the biggest gun
Then point it at him..getting smash till that body ain't seen no more...That's a hit & run.
...that’s not really how a hit and run works . Also u don’t have to feel obligated to rhyme twice in the setup every time . Formulas get boring and voters tune it out
I carry an eagle. Enough bullets to serve and have smash down.
Desert's with me, & I am firing it up quicker than staff at the burning man camp ground.
....ok this was better
At first, his girl won't know when I kill him. She won't be around to check...
Might think it's a murder hoax till I give his miss information...about the death.
..::again better but I mean that relative to ur prior lines . It’s low hanging fruit here in the sense that ur not doing anything new or wild wit a fairly obvious concept ... wit that being said u did execute it fairly well
I am that gutter. His family will investigate it so I will need a fast cover.
if his siblings want to play games too, I will also get rid of Smash's Brothers.
....this is the best line u had it fired on all cylinders


This waaayyy past the deadline fam...
U buggin wit no potential, But Im so gonna end u,
You're clearly nothing but a gnat to me n ion care if that termite offend u
.::this is really really played bro . U prolly don’t know but yea . This is bad
Please don't talk to me about cadence, I'll make sure the doubt faded
But you... You the type writers laugh at even on old machines because you outdated
....eh . Great wording bad concept bro . It’s really cliche
I got your girl... Sitting here ready to blow, but her friends talkin shit is the craziest tho
Cuz they sitting here all dishin (audition) like they trying to make it a show
....ok yo. I remember u being better than this unless ur a different person than who I’m thinking of non offense . This is bad bad bad u can’t explain the wordplay or joke bro . That’s like auto loss
And what the fuck is your name bro... Is it something tough, well I looked it up
And basically ima make u jump in between these 2 ropes... I'll double dutch
....no
Fuck you up in a timely source wit an unrivaled force, like what is he point in even surviving for? I'll hospitalize you...while playing Pokemon go... Then break in and beat you till your Ivysaur.



Nah man second guy really has a lot to work on . Ur really good at wording but the concepts are like a decade old


Sletch got this

The way this ends is terrible. You ain't rapping, you're battling
Idiot chump thinks he's fun. All I need is one night...standing by him with the biggest gun
Then point it at him..getting smash till that body ain't seen no more...That's a hit & run.
Cool flow, weak punch
I carry an eagle. Enough bullets to serve and have smash down.
Desert's with me, & I am firing it up quicker than staff at the burning man camp ground.
Meh enough gun bars gimme something clever
At first, his girl won't know when I kill him. She won't be around to check...
Might think it's a murder hoax till I give his miss information...about the death.
Could've done without the second ellipsis. Not the harshest concept
I am that gutter. His family will investigate it so I will need a fast cover.
if his siblings want to play games too, I will also get rid of Smash's Brothers.
So so

Closer had the best potential. Your wording isn't bad, I'd say work on cleverness. To be real, I could've said "how are you dissing him directly?" Under each line.

3/10

Ok
Please don't talk to me about cadence, I'll make sure the doubt faded
But you... You the type writers laugh at even on old machines because you outdated
Filler
I got your girl... Sitting here ready to blow, but her friends talkin shit is the craziest tho
Cuz they sitting here all dishin (audition) like they trying to make it a show
As much as it seems the majority of people here can't catch WP, never explain your shit in the verse. The real ones will catch it. The way this is written though, all dishin.. .what? We got different slang, I've never said somebody was dishing.
And what the fuck is your name bro... Is it something tough, well I looked it up
And basically ima make u jump in between these 2 ropes... I'll double dutch
Not the greatest rhyme. Not a good diss.
Fuck you up in a timely source wit an unrivaled force, like what is he point in even surviving for?
I'll hospitalize you...while playing Pokemon go... Then break in and beat you till your Ivysaur.
Meh

3/10

Unfortunately, no standouts in either verse.

Flipping a coin here....
