GTR's vote removed due to being blocked by Masked-Reaper 

Easy win. Its ard to explain because is was only one bar.

Thought Chode started off very strong, pretty decisive in his direction, seemingly...leading up to "ur mothers basement"...the setup was there, clean...which I felt, it would have been more impactful if you would have kept the same rhyme scheme and content...but you broke the balance of the bar and its intensity, by altering the scheme and subject matter mid-punch as you forced your readers to have to change their thought process mid-bar, to make sense of the latter than your initial thoughts.

Idk if its a cultural barrier, possibly..but where Im from we never regard to a mans penis..which is off putting while reading, which gives your readers an uneasy feeling...keep in mind, that everything you say...the consumer has to image it first, anticipating the punch...and some may feel uncomfortable with imagining a "dickless" Chode..as I do, but in reference to bitches that are obvious "dickless"...it makes sense, as for cohesiveness...and when I read "heart in a box", before reading it in its entirety...I immediately thought February, and valentines day punch...you lost me at "romance at Christmas"...as its many directions you could have taken...especially 'anniversaries'. Which would have made for more creative refs. Ive seen much better from you.

Overall, I felt as if Masked had the stronger bar...but by VERY little. If Chode would have changed his ending, and matched the syllables with his initial setup...this would had been a very different vote. The issue that I see here, and others..is that its a ONE BAR battle, and everyone is trying to compound punches in such little space...instead using that space reserved for your setups and than try to stack two punches into on bar...ONE BAR, one idea...to build on.

See one of you soon, fairs in...good luck to both.

masked felt more complex and meaningful overall. chode came with simple bars . not bad, but not better than masked. fv no hate

For those who missed it because it wasn't capitalized

" WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT / SHOULD LEAVE YOUR MOTHER'S BASEMENT." 

good effort from both but one's Punch was just hitting harder build ups both need work chode paralympics punch had nothing to do with your build up. reaper went for a double pun nameplay and a good punch on the end reaper 7/10 chode 5/10 

This is a tough one because the build ups dn't really go with the closing bar. Both kinda took it light on this aspects so based on multis and the closing bars I like chodes closing punch more and inner rhyme pattern along with the multi though Masked continues the longer multi the closing punch doesn't hit as hard. Though Texhnique vs Creativity on preference could be anyone's game here. it's anyone's game. FVNH and gl to whom progresses
