I suppose under that description you wouldn't be. You're literally like a triple² agent, lol.

When did you guys get so sensitive? Remind, this is a bar from probably the best Letsbeef live battler:-

And yet personals aren't impactful?

Hmm. While I also find name wp to usually be played out, I'm kind of forced to agree with you to an extent here. I suppose I just personally dislike a bit of the nature of this style, in the same way you highlighted a dislike for the impersonal bar style.

I also suppose that one could convey the same meanings of contrasting the abilities of your opponent as one does with irrelevant-to-the-person bars, but in a personal nature, so yeah. Fair enough ya fucker my stance is pretty demonstrably unfounded here

And to think you've been dropping those soundproof rebuttals in every thread all week

For me, there's a couple of reasons. Firstly, standard bars bore me. I like when something cuts deep and when you know that the opponent is gonna feel it. Sometimes you don't even need the voters to feel it, just know that the opponent does. But on top of that, I'm just not that creative. I've always been technically sound, but fell completely short when it came to having the creativity to generate concepts out of nowhere. That's why I can do personals (honing in on my ability to diss the fuck out of people ) and schemes (write down multis, write punches off of the multi instead of getting it out of thin air).

Yeah, maybe I'm starting to push it a bit with the personals, but fuck man I've had two battles back, give me a break haha. When I do one battle, and the personals were hard, I want to move onto the next one and push the boundaries even more.

Lmfao @ you noticing that. I began thinking its best to not hound in on something as much & simply agree when I find common ground with someone on here despite interpersonal experiences with em, lol.

I also believe to an extent that this boiling down of a style is negatively aided by the history involved and how we(maybe only I) create semi-concrete perceptions of an emcees approach along the years. As I created the thought stencil of you being the archetype of an almost strictly personals type writer over time, people are most likely doing the same with others and their respective styles. I guess voting objectivity is a tad more fleeting & complex than I previously understood lol. A testament to how we can all be if even slightly, guided & swayed by ego

Also, as a side-note that's still how I write bars too w/ the multi list thing lmao. I find it shortcuts the process a lot of the time. Mfw I realize chloro advice is still alive in my every-day process.

Twas all about giving the simple fundamentals.

I consider two major methods of writing punches:

"Top-down" (come up with the concept first and write the multis to match)

"Bottom-up" (come up with a multi set, then write a concept to use it)

Of course, since writing bars is a complex process, one bar can (and often does) originate from both of these (e.g. come up with a double meaning, find a multi set that matches another bar you've already written, rephrase the double meaning to fit that set).

I mostly use top-down for serious battles. In less serious battles I prefer bottom-up since it's less strenuous to write.
