The ability to sound clear, deliver a punch well and flow in audio are the equivalent of wording in text. Without that, the punch isn't hard regardless.

You make a good point. However, the crowd isn't going to laugh if the joke isn't funny, either, no matter how well they deliver it.
If the joke is hilarious but not delivered with the same kind of conviction, it's obviously not gonna be hilarious, maybe make people laugh a little, but it's still better than delivering something that just isn't funny at all.

here are the things i mark in a battle and in what order.
1. punches. (they didn't throw any, or had simple/broken punches)
2. wording mistakes, logic mistakes, bad wordplay
3. (for audio here is where i mark someone down for a boring performance)
here's the bottom line though. and a good example. edge vs guts first round, edge wasn't too hot on the mic, and guts was clearly more comfortable, but edge had stronger bars with better logic and flow. my vote? edgeworth no doubt. however, if i was battling someone and you could barely hear their audio, it sounded like they were talking, and kept repeating lines they fucked up, then it isn't even rap. auto loss. so yeah, obviously if someone bombs, it doesn't even count, but i think i've made how i view it clear.

GOOD EXPLANATION, THATS QUITE A PROCESS YOU GO THROUGH EACH VOTE DUDE LOL. THANKS FOR THAT THOUGH, THAT LAYOUT COULD ACTUALLY HELP SOME NEWER GUYS IF THEY HAVE THAT WAY OF THINKING..... NICE.

It can at times. No ones saying it goes alone but take me Vs Pugz for example. That dude can't write a punchline to save himself and I had a really really hard hitting personal verse. Still lost that trade off cause I cant rap and he was brilliant at it.

AGREE WITH ALOT OF THAT...... ONE THING I STRUGGLE WITH IN AUDIO IS THA LACK OF EXPO's. BEING FROM THA UK I DONT GET ALOT OF THA AMERICAN SLANG Y'ALL USE, IN TEXT PPL NORMALLY EXPO IT BUT IN AUDIO NOT SO MUCH, SO I FIND I HAVE TO USE GOOGLE A FEW TIMES TO UNDERSTAND WHAT SOME PPL ARE SAYIN.
GOOD EXPLANATION THO YOUR HIGHNESS, THANKYOU FOR THAT.

I'm pretty sure you won that battle, did you not? Or was this something different entirely? I only remember the text battle.

You ever seen the Brendan Schaub special? Not a single funny joke but a crowd in stitches.
Some comedians make people laugh just by the way they say "Hello" at the start.
Tim Vine made an entire career out of abysmal dad jokes and he's funny as fuck.
