Both brought it to the table with solid wordplay, flow, multies. It was really close, but one had better personals and punched a little harder. 

Good luck my man

Same to you! Let's gooo

What a battle what a battle WHAT A FUCKIN BATTLE 

Ima start by sayin both were great here 

Bab your concepts and scheme pretty good here with a nice display of some vocab as well

Shots your wordplay shined here along wit your smooth flow and personal shots at bab executed well

Very tough decision but made my choice on who i felt had the greater impact

Fairs in

EXPO: drop tears, Misty eyed, in sighting the fog of war / Rep, set, carry his on weight, crunch time stomach to muscle, by, cept bicep, tendon / banking, key pad, safe pair of hands, combinations, on lock / last scheme was quite obvioua.

This was dope as fuck. Sadly I can't vote, but #High.edu

Fuck. I can tell that both gave it their all this battle and mad props for that. Bab - I prefered your style in this battle. Thought that "Safe pair of hands" bar was fucking insane. Shots - You came really fucking heavy. There was no jabs here. Just haymaker after haymaker. Also thought the personals added a bit more sting to your punches, so that was nice. 

Overall I thought my winner just brought that little more today. Being a tad more direct, agressive and personal got him winning this for me. Best of luck with this lads. 

Nice battle fellas

dammmmmn this battle was dope. 

This battle was fairly close, Leaning one way do to the haymakers constantly thrown. This battle was definately 1 of the better ones for the text GC. Good battle!

Loser was dope winner was dope...one had a better begining and in my opinion slacked later on in his verse and the other had a weak begining and picked up fire after his verse....i i liked the stomach through it line....no hate fair vote stay encouraged to both...peace 

This was pretty dope. Got one dude with a dope style that is fairly seamless and really enjoyable to read but the punch strength was occasionally lacking. Other dude has a more typical lb style but loads up his set ups with mini punches that allow him to keep up this jab jab jab hook type of style where the punches just keep coming. Good shit. Got a winner.

damn this was dope. multis from both were insane. punches were on point both had a few haymakers. ima go for the one with the more quotables. will not sway and good luck to both

Both verses were set up great , vocabulary was A1, punches were executed well from both ends a really hard decision but I feel that my winner's approach and slightly harder punches barely skimmed by this one , Very good read and good luck to both . 

I thought this was really close, i had to read it 4x, slowly...now that I've done that, i guess i've came to a conclusion...one had crazier setups, like every line had a metaphor or two leading up to a decent punch, plus it flowed well...he also had good themes & schemes going, along with heavy nameplay. I saw some equally good setups & mets by the other guy, and he seemed to get more personal than just nameplay...the punches weren't as effective as his opponent, but his intellect shined more...with this said, i have the score even, with one taking the W by a hair.

Fairs in. Salut to both. Both have come come a long way. Its good to see.  

One had a really smooth verse riddled with nameplay and some personals....The other was mainly focusing on personals but flipped them in a way that made the punches hit really hard...Cool little match here...Edging it to one based on punch strength the fairs in...

#GetSchooled

Idk this is fire. Different styles, both creative and dope here tho. One came across a little smoother conceptually with personals and other came with mad wordplay and punches. Tuff call, y'all went in. Both verses were nice reads. Gratz to the winner moving to final round. This is a good tourney and belt to win.

Badass battle, hella bars from both. My loser had a better closer but my winner had better content with everything before that. Good battle!
