I hadn't battled in 2 years and beat MC-KG on RULE's card easily who is apparently a middleweight now. Even if you are rusty when you come back you shouldn't be losing to people way beneath your skill level. It's like riding a bike. When you come back from your break.. you still know how to do multis, structure a verse, come up with punchlines, etc.

RULE also didn't battle for years and came back and won a GC vs lockhart in the finals.
