At the Top level it becomes less about skill and more about style. Plus I think it depends on who you first saw come up, like cars, clothes, movies, etc. you saw in high school just become the basis for cool. As you get older you focus less on cool / relevant and more on grown shit but you don't forget what it was.
For me LB Text Top 10 of All Time (by style preference):
iLLimit, UNKNOWN ARTIST, Jason, Real Talk, Lockhart, Bleu, Seul, RULE, DaDDiO & ILLoKWENT
As far as Audio goes it's LoD, M-Rock & then everyone else
If we're talking Best All Around Battler I would say Punk has to be considered #1, he's able to navigate all 3 formats (Audio, Tracks & Text) at the highest levels. While we've got plenty of great Audio & Text battlers and some who went on to Live Battle it's rare they worked on Tracks / kept working on them.
