we seen every angle by now. so anything new is something i'm looking for. also don't like to see 8 gun bars dropped as your entry in the tournament, i wanna see clever twists on old concepts, and new concepts all together.

this doesn't just refer to "punches" i want to see new styles emerge, new standards, and so on.

2. punch strength
whether or not you were creative is important, but if you can't get out a punch, then it was for not. there's so many other criteria to determine punch strength, so we can just leave it as "punches are what battlings about"

3. relatable
now this is where i differ from the crowd in a severe way. i don't relate to gun bars and sword bars, or clothes brand and what have you. so seeing a bar about some gucci belt, idk, does nothing for me. i have a lot of interest in fields i don't see touched upon in battle rap, like history and science, or even entertainment. i see a lot of bars relating to entertainment, like pop stars or movie stars, which is all fair, but i'm into some pretty weird shit so if i see an "angels egg" bar or maybe even a "captain beefheart" bar, it's just gonna click for me.

4. execution
nothing i hate reading more than a bunch of symbols thrown randomly around, everything misspelled, and wordplay only working one way (if that). if ya bars ain't clean, i'm not into it.

I Make Science Bars ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL The Time
