TOPICAL TOURNAMENT RD 2: Deep|Prose(Loser) vs Intricate skillz (Winner) 4-1TKO

[Mayneak]

Rhyming Scheme/Flow - Intricate...Both had a decent flow but felt I_S was a little smoother.
Vocabulary - Intricate...Felt he had more of a detailed verse in terms of Vocab, embraced me a little more also.
Topic/Meaning - Deep...Close one to call, but i felt Prose kept up with the meaning behind the picture a little better.
Storytelling/Progression - Deep...co-sign with wigsplit, both were good in this cat
Emotion - Intricate...Both had deep emotion involved but Skillz edged it with more detail.
Imagery - Deep...Good Imagery from both but Deep's was a little easier to follow and put the story behind the picture
Poetic Techniques - Intricate...Showed more versatility throughout his verse
Ending - Intricate...Possibly the hardest cat to pick a winner from, both had a pretty solid ending but felt Skillz was a little more in depth

Overall: Solid reads from both, two different approaches, liked the God direction Deep took, also liked the direction Skillz took. Deep had the more simplistic style which worked nicely & made the story a little easier to follow. Skillz went for a more complex style which he pulled off well. Close one to call but after counting up the cat breakdown. Vote goes to: Intricate_Skillz. Good shit.
