Why do y'all do this
So Im looking over the top battle on the hotlist. And I'm amazed.
Why do you insist on putting those quotation marks around statements before the punch or rhyming words?
For example: 'I'll grab the hammer' like THOR IN AVENGERS.
Do you think your readers are incapable of understanding that Thors weapon was a hammer, and a hammer in another sense is referred to a gun?
It's common sense and an to me seems pointless.
And on some I've looked over the words in quotation have nothing to do with the punch.
So why? Even when I did battle here I always wondered that.
Idk maybe I'm just being a dick.

People feel the need to make their verses look as complex as possible to get more votes based on intricacy. It doesn't make much sense to put quotation marks around things so obvious, but if someone was daft enough to miss that simply wordplay it would have been as if it wasn't there in the first place, so I'm sure most do it just so it's blatantly put out there, not because they're like "OHHH THAT SHIT WAS FIRE MANEEEE BETTA QUOTE THAT BITCH!"

Hahah well if the reader is incapable of grasping simple wordplay and set ups then maybe a rap battle board isn't the best place for them.

1. Its LB style
2. Some people just do it coz they feel that makes their verse readable.
3. Some people wanna show how dope their concepts are and how faggots they are.
4. If you disagree to all three points above then you're just being a dick. thank you
