Damn this battle was cookin yo . Way lyve showin he belongs in the top tier . Fine piece of work . Phro had a lot of nice wordplay set ups into hard punches. Took a risk with some of those slant rhymes tho.  This is fkn close af for me , my winner just about outjabbed his opponent GL 

great read guys, both did well with the scheme on this but my winner here also had the better concept and the closer helped seal it for me 

Good battle. Both did their thing. The winner took it on punch volume and density. Challenger had all the right ideas just got out-executed. Good shit. Votes in.

scheme: OFF WHITE KICKS

Expo: 

"Match and Purse / matching purse" a 'match and purse' is common terminology used in fighting. A purse is what you get paid for fighting in a match. I was running two concepts.. a fighting one and an equality in pay concept. While playing off the troll comment "equal lefts for equal rights"- women wanting equal rights and punch men then complain when they're hit back. So that bleeds into my next concept "hands".

"Frog eye lids - I/eye can see through covers" frogs have eye lids that are clear. Mimmicry (and other gimmicks) are terms used in evolution to describe traits that evolve to disguise or make an animal appear to be something else. It's an evolution /adaptation concept.

Both brought their absolute A-game to this, back to back punches and overall a solid grasp of the scheme. Evenly matched in nearly every category, what edged this for me was consistency. Both what plenty of hits, but my winner had less misses. BOTB goes to Lyve's closer. Biggest miss of the battle was dogs bite pricks. fair is in. true winner here is the audience. 

Phro got this clear. Way smoother scheme work and back to back punches did the trick. Way wasn't bad at all, just went up against a guy who had a great verse. Too much filler, though. Fair's in.

Good battle here, both stayed on scheme. One delivered slightly harder punches in this one & was more creative 

fairs in 

This was my favorite battle of the round. Both of y'all brought it. My choice was a little more creative and I felt the structure of his verse made his bars flow better. 

Nice drops here gentlemen. Was waiting for Phroxen to drop to see if this battles as hot as Tri vs Lockhart. Winner had a lot of punches between their schemes and didn't take a bar off when it came to wordplay 

Good battle one excelled in flow, execution, and delivery. The other was nice went with the more consistent verse.
