**The Final Step** ends with ya foot on their throat.
Woof.
BEFORE EXECUTING THEIR EXECUTIONS... please quickly comply with the following!! @Cashius @Utmost @Anonymous @Genocide @Jah Homie Share your quick thoughts regarding the other team members and their matches!!!!! PLEASE make this a priority. ACTION: for BOTH your match and their matches: 1. what do you think of their opponent? 2. what do you (or they) need to do to win? 3. any recent, or meaningful, personals you have in mind? MATCHES: Utmost vs. Malachi Anonymous vs. Witty Jah Homie vs. Sharp Nine Genocide vs. King Keith ** PLEASE CONSIDER THIS MANDATORY - just 3 quick answers for each of our 4 battles which will HELP ME HELP YOU SO YOU CAN HELP US!!! ** YOUR PLAN: please give a quick answer to this too: 1. When can you have a draft of something to show me?? --- NOTES: (1) please write a couple punches concepts BEYOND the line limit you agree too -- give me something more to work with in case a particular concept just isnt working out. (2) It does not need to be polished, we can be iterative --- but try to get me something ASAP so we can get going --- waiting until Monday or Tuesday night is cutting it close - I'd love to have at least 2 passes at it with each of you if possible!! Please PM your drafts to both me and @Cashius! (don't post them in here just yet) I really want to see a quick response here before we talk about any specifics for any one verse -- definitely not trying to make unnecessary 'work' for the team, but this is the most pivotal piece of our game. |

Personal Idea:
I think the "cross training" program flips I've seen have been ATROCIOUS (i even deliberately used a flip on it in a flex "didnt want my tutelage, coulda used the supervision / but didn't need the cross-training to receive this crucifixion" - just to get the concept out of the way lol What that means is --- it would have been VERY unlikely that I'd recommend you guys touch on that --- UNTIL I thought about this fact which makes it MUCH more personal: (1) EVERYONE YA'LL ARE GOING AGAINST SIGNED UP FOR MY CROSS-TRAINING PROGRAM (2) I TOLD EVERYONE WHO SIGNED UP THAT I CANT DO SHIT FOR IT BECAUSE I'M FOCUSED ON THIS FIRST soooo - that literally means you can flip it a few different ways to make fun of them. Ya'll have my undivided attention -- AND they aren't getting shit. You can even have a funny "slight on me" in the process -- since a couple of you never signed up for it yourselves (and/or were too late for the first go around). So a concept about "them asking for help, you didn't but got it any way" could be flipped into something pretty funny if you put a bit of thought into it.... Just an idea. I'll look at teams later and see if there are any other "common themes" HOLLA! |

Jah Homie vs. Sharp Nine
http://artofbattling.com/forum/showt...chi-S9-Collab) Sharp uses alot of current event punches, multis are a little basic sometimes Wordings not bad, he just has a lot of decent lines..havent seen many that screamed haymaker to me. his lines are short, almost 'too short for liking' what you should do. this site tends eat up good name plays..theres a bunch for sharp nine, also be creative as possible to offset the fact that hes probably gonna use a current event punch or just use one your self Quote:

Fuck yea Utmost!! much obliged bro - great stuff!
NOTE TO ALL - please do not quote the "benchmarks" directly, pull info out of them -- but please do not quote them, since they were deliberately intended to be in the password-only forum to avoid being used against them lol... please try to respect that, im looking to help the team however we can - but that'd just look like you were hurting for concepts more than anyone in this group needs to. feel me yo? (again - DOPE response/info @Utmost --- everyone else, please return the favor and provide your insights asap!) |

The only person I know is Malachi, who went by Prophet at NC. He's like 13 years old. He was always complaining he was too broke to buy a PS3 then he finally got one.
I know that's random but that's all I remember. I won't be much help here, but I can give feedback on concepts once you guys start that process. |

lol man that's effin great. those personals alone could fuel an entire series of verses. concepts like "young" and "broke" can be flipped just as easily as "fat", and few topics are as played out as 'fat' -- but combine "young and broke" together man, that's gold. Well at a minimum, you should have no shortage of things to pull from @Utmost! |
