This is pretty close, both had some issues. Flat had more filler than 40's and openened with self-hype which instn't "that bad" if it were in a 32 or 64 but as this in only an 8 liner you need to utilise your space as effectively as possible (peep WarSand's latest 8 line drop for an example).40's WP though were reaches/didn't work correctly bother ways in their sentences, which hinders him in those areas, though he did show more creativity in his overall piece. It is a close one, to be fair. I've got 40 taking this by a slight edge. Best of luck to whoever moves on. 

both* lol typo

well this was pretty fire , great match up , ive seen 40 elevate him game over the last year or so and he has come a long way , he even managed to finally beat me ( after 3 losses :P ) 

flatlineFr has elevated his game fast in a very short period of time 

pretty close battle , i feel one gets the edge here for having a lil more punch consistency overall

TYPO: It should say Synagogue not Cynagaug

Expo:

40-Killa

Most men have their mid-life crisis in their 40's

A synagogue* is a place of worship.

When middle aged women go thru menopause they have 'hot flashes' that cause them to sweat profusely. 'SWEATIN 40'

Shape shifters can change their body to fit whatever person/animal/ect they would like to look like.

When the earth's plates shift it cause the crust on the top off the earth to shift as well and that litteraly caused the LAND to SLIDE. Causes earthquakes, tsunamis, avalanches, set.

Ayyee good shit 40! Good luck brotha!

Expo- Givin neck is givin head..."pussy layin still  =cat wanna pose  and his name is Flatline so he'll just be being himself when I flatline him

Good luck Flatline. Great battle fr

sick batrle between FlatlinerFr and 40killa..i felt ones verse had punches that lander harder so fv no hate..gl to both MCs peace! 

Honestly this pretty close, I felt flats verse flowed better, set ups weren't really the but there one or 2 decent ones. The others verse didn't flow as well, had some multis that didn't really connect, but overall came with them most complexity. Had Flatline made every bar a heavy bar he would've won this.

This one is close fr.. Theres ups and downs throughout each verse.. 1 had better wordplay the other was more consistent with punches.. Both had good concepts.. One had better multies the other had better flow.. Very tough call.. 

Flat-  i didn't care for the opener,.. i cut ya words in half, that kind of made no sense to me,.. i liked your punch about the mid life crisis,.. you don't pray on your knee's in a synagogue, you do it at a Mosque or Catholic church,.. at the pews,.. you had to 3 and 4 syllable rhymes where he,.. had more on average .. 4 to 5.. you rhymed shiftin with shiftin and.. ended weak,.. you were ok, you had punches,.. you talked.. but it wasn't enough or more thought than his,.. it was a bunch of name flips,.. with less bars and ended weak..

40-  i felt was more consistent and not ard to follow,..i liked the Killa in the Tourney but Pal don't Rhyme with Doll,..the Cat won't oppose was shakey for me,..felt like that was wack-ish but the Catch flat on the road,.. was the Capper and.. the whole opener with tey rift up in ya hourney,.. to the punch was all A level material,.. now add more multicyllabic similies,.. to build your punch up,..you also had more lines,..you rhymed his with his in the end and..closed a lil simple.. but i think you won.. clearly..

this is not close

Zulk said "this is not close"..  dont mind being voted against but no need for you to try to convince others that they should agree with you brotha

Honestly I liked the age reference punches from Flat, Killa the attorney line was hard af, but to me Flat had more punches that went together and hit hard, neck an neck. Imo winner had came harder

40 got this one for me, flatline was dope, but the 40 age/ mid life crisis angle has been done too many times " RECENTLY" for it to be effective

I usually don't stress originality, but this is the 4th age reference/mid life Crisis against 40 in the last couple months, I agree with Zul, this is not close

damn! both came with dope ass punchlines the first guy was using some good name flips . the second guy had some great wordplay. this battle was pretty close on the score sheets so for me it comes on the personal preference and I liked 40 killas verse better that Attorney bit was dope af

First read I had 40 winning but I went over it like 3 times and then had Flatline taking it. I felt his punches were a bit better. I liked how 40 started off but it seemed it went a bit down hill after the first few lines. Like Lucky Pal/ and Chucky Doll doesn't rhyme. Either way, I was still entertained by your verse, king. Flatline flowed his verse pretty perfect and had some nice 40 flips. Good battle though yall.
