Abstract react combat with no aim like murderers who dont use their Right Hand he'll
get LEFT SLAIN
kids lacking game so I'm at my Playstation wit your EXbox bout to put on a HALO(condom)
after I put the metal to your face something like Kano(Mortal Combat)

----------------

Abstract came with a solid verse, the multis/vocab/metaphors were fire, but he did lack punches in few of his bars. Keep your 'abstract' style, but start aiming up with some personals and direct punches as well and you'll be really good.

DT- I felt your verse was weak. Recently i've been reading/voting on a lot of your battles and ive noticed a huge flaw in your rhyme scheme, you will rhyme a bar than throw in 1 extra line to fit in with the structure, this throws me off big time, end your bars where they should end, dont drag them on.

i bolded what should have been the end of the bar, but than you added the extra line, which didn't rhyme with it's following line. haiti/lately rhymes, but lately doesn't rhyme with left slain, it gets confusing, you have like 3 lines per a bar rather than two, fix your structure and you' be a lot better. also every battle i read you have one stand out line that impresses me, but the rest of the verse lacks that fire, take your time to brush up your strucuture and come consistant man.

i spent a lot of time with this vote/feedback so hopefully you just dont brush it off and you take it to mind fam.

@ DT


And that's why you'll keep losing because you wont take constructive criticism (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rlz=1T4ADBF_enUS242US242&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=criticism&spell=1) .

whatever that's your decision for whatever reason you feel your to good to listen to what others have to say when they try to help you, i can see what piph was talking about now.

2-1 abs favor

Favorite line from Abstract-

Favorite lines from DT-

--Abstract react combat with no aim like murderers who dont use their Right Hand he'll

--after I put the metal to your face something like Kano(Mortal Combat)

I'm not much sure about DT's rep for being a poor sport and his inability to take criticism so I'm not judging my vote off that as no one should. I mean, if you're good, you're good, despite personality flaws. Personally, I felt DT's punches were more complex. Abstract was good, but I didn't feel he really had punches. IMO, he came with metas and wordplay strickly and I felt only his last line actually was a punch. A punch to me is something that hits hard, makes you sit back and say damn, that was hot and I didn't really say that with Abstract. It was more, aight, I'm feeling this, it's rhyming, the structure is there, and the wordplay is working.

With DT, I felt he came swinging with jabs. Did his rhyme and flow with metas like Abstract's? No, but I felt his complexity with the left slain, leaking worse than iraqi navy, and especially felt that metal to ya face like kano. That was sick. I have noticed something with DT though as in, I feel he's almost under-appreciated? I see his battles, and he always comes correct, but it seems people almost automatically vote against him when I believe he was clearly the winner. Like I said though, I dunno much about his attitude towards losing or if he rubbed anyone the wrong way because I'm just a newbie, but yea, DT took this one with all respect to Abstract's credible verse.

vote- DT

Shit's ridiculous, dude thinks he comes sick, just because he's a mother fucker like Oedipus!
^and to me none of these really connect. btw Oedipus complex is a theory, not a person(noun)...way you say sounds stupid. comes/cuums sick is a very weak set up.

V.S.

I'll put the shotty to your body and leave it leaking worse than the Iraqi Navy

^i mean i'm a little sour on this...i've kinda used similar ones already, so has people like DigitILL, Kataracks, eventhough their old school RW now.

^..i remember those. ok finish.

I see tragedy stepping up his metaphor game a bit here and there so that's good. Try not to think tho', just keystyle or freestyle it out until you get refreshed with something new...metaphors don't come from thinking about 'em, they come from subconsious shit you know or experienced.

I'm going with Divine on this one.

Oedipus was a mythical dude. He killed his father, so he could marry his mother. That is where Freud derived the theory of the Oedipus Complex from.

For sure, though, I appreciate everyone's criticism, I will try to develop some better punches. This was the first battle I've ever done.

3-2 DivineTragedy.

To Hans Solo:
Just giving some insight, Oedipus was a person in Greek mythoogy. The Oedipus complex, is named after him. The story happens so that he does not know it is mother who he has fallen in love with and when he does he pokes out his eyes.

-I thought this was the best bar of the battle. Really nice metas, complexity was there and the whole bar really worked together.

The battle was pretty even, but the flow of DT seemed a little off, and the wordplay and complexity of Abstract decided it for me.
