Battled peeped. Close one, IMO. However, I can see why those voted for the winner, as well. I think Conceptually, both of you were there but execution on your concepts varied. My personal preference when using a Simile, is to execute with some sort of harsh insult or a dope metaphorical insult/personal, because most of the time, a simile typically comes off statement'ish, rather then a punch & I think that's what cost you the victory there. I'm really not a fan of the whole "LB" structure/style in format because of this, lol. It's like writers try and CRAM way too much shit, which comes off "Complex" and kills the potential impact and/or effectiveness the concept/punch could've potentially had. Also, I tend to dislike punches that I must conduct research for, in order to click or comprehend, which a lot of punches on here require you to open up google and do some research in order to know what the hell the writer is referencing, lol... Anyways, I think V won that conceptually but lacked in the proper execution in which Dono or w/e his name is had a tad bit of a cleaner execution on his bar. Just my opinion, tho. It's all a matter of preference, my man.
