Oh and @Bleu you vs @Rai would be CRAZY!!!

Or just get feed from as many people as possible I guess. I've had people say lines are played with no evidence before so be sure to do your research. You can always use google to double check if a lines been used if you know how to search properly.

I love ya Bleu, but this is a load of bollocks. I get why you think this, because when you kind of started proper being a part of LB we were caught in the Murda Muzik bullshit spin of things. But guys like Manhattan and Lockhart were making their wordplay work before you came onto the scene (not that they were doing so as good) and that's just an example from the "new-gen" of guys. Wordplay was almost always one way until Rican and Pulse kind of started shifting it, and as far back as 2009 I used to post constantly in threads about Rican's misuse of wordplay. Here's a quick example:-

IAmFlow's vote comment. Kind of around 2011 is when it started to change. I'm not taking credit what so ever, but that's kind of why we made the crew. We wanted to kind of get everyone battling in a much cleaner way than all the bollocks of the time was. Eventually, the guys with the clean style outlasted the guys with the non-working wordplay style and it now seems to be the norm again.

Anyone before the Grizz/Dissizit/Rican/Godbody era made their wordplay work both ways.

Lol I just read my battle wit grizz in 2010. He swept me. Dam Rican, Dissizit, Lockhart. Them names nostalgic.

Dao, stop. If you're going to return and do the whole "I used to be here but I'm not telling you who I was" routine, stop fucking begging for attention by trying to act like you know all of us. We don't know each other son. I don't know people that are so bitch they need to hide their identity.

Routine? .Hide identity? Bruh I can't enjoy this shid, n my memories without dudes feelin some type of way lol. Gah damn this it ain't that serious bruh. Shid we all hiding our identity bitch boy.. Post ya real picture of ya self. How old are you. What school you went to??? Hunh??? Ok then fuck boy. That's the good thing about this site u can start fresh Iif u want

Man I'm done wit this thread y'all got it. I'ma just stay to myself n snipe dudes.. I'm just using this site to improve my bars for my songs any way.. Uneth1cal eat a dick lol

Other people did it here and there probably out of luck / coincidence. Those same people you say made their wordplay work both ways mostly had wordplay that DIDN'T work both ways so your point is invalid. I was the first to consistently make wordplay work both ways and set the standard / make it the norm. That can't be debated. I witnessed it / did it myself. Before me it was a whole lot of forced shit and no one had that standard for wordplay when they were judging / writing. Since my run you saw wayyy more focus / judgement / mention of wordplay working both ways because I pushed the narrative with my writing / critique / discussion and people caught on to an extent. Back in the day they let the most forced wordplay slide.. they probably didn't even have the term of wordplay working both ways.

I'd like to see you find someone other than me who consistently made their wordplay work both ways and pushed the narrative until it became the standard.

EDIT: I don't even see any wordplay in that battle. I'm talking oronyms / homophones at least.
