Nah I don't think it's about who has the more basic punches. Then you'd just be actively trying to NOT entertain the readers beyond whatever little perverse laughs they get from reading "you'll get smoked like pot"-tier lines before the novelty wears off.
What it should be about is how entertaining the punches are while ALSO being way more basic than you would expect to be dropped in a serious battle between good battlers. The goal is to be clever while not being complex. Shoutouts to @ Captain Wackbeird.
If you were to use a math formula, it'd be, like, how much the bars made you laugh minus how complex they are. Or something like that.

i agree with edge here, where like, i find it super funny. it's a parody of an average verse essentially, and if you can't understand that, then you're just out of the loop in general.

To each their own. I’m not really a fan but I lmao at a BATS battle if it’s good while some people can’t stand em.
Was definitely disappointed at Edgeworth vs Rieper though..got excited when I saw it then I clicked, read, and felt like a little kid whose scoop of ice cream falls off the cone on the first bite.
