I gotta go with Phe here. In general, for a 16 line battle, you’re expecting to see 8 punches on average, maybe 1-2 less if there’s a big haymaker that had a big set up or something. Korvus only had like 3 maybe 4 and they were quite basic in their nature. What Korvus was offering was a tighter flow, but he was also staying relatively tame in terms of syllables in his rhymes and didn’t have anything too crazy in the way of rhyming. Even if he did, rhyming itself with no/weak content just doesn’t impress me as a voter. As for Phe, while I felt he was forcing concepts a bit, he was way more consistent with his punches and won for that reason alone pretty much. His verse flowed decently in its own right as well.

Closer then the last battle just read. Winner had some dope wordplay here but the loser matched it with intense quality as well. This was a heater man wish more battles were evenly matched like this. Salute and good luck to the winner yo

Phe had some pretty dope punches in this. I liked that promises bar. Korvua shit was dope as well, but the way he structured his verse made it harder to read for me, cuz instead of just reading it, I'm also trying to find the part where the rhyme connects. Phe last bar was pretty tight, but also Korvus wordplay on Phe Open investigator bar..

Thought Phe took it pretty easily. KOrvus was actually spitting but wasn't saying anything, Phe just out barred him pretty comfortably..

Agree with Riep's & Orochi's breakdowns, winner was just on another level tbh. Loser was outclassed but this was a good showing for a tournament battle, in time you'll get better. Fair's in fellas.

Phe had the better material here. A better use of his concepts and the punches were quite good. Liked the verse as a whole, felt it was quite consistent.

Korvus I felt that you were really inconsistent here. You started off  with punches that could've been setup a lot better. Then you picked up and brought some nice punches but that wasn't enough.
