Grand Championship Round Two Review!

[RULE]

The second round of the Grand Championship had some great battles. Only one no-show for the entire round was a massive bonus, and a final-worth clash between GRizzEAT & ILLoKWENT led a fantastic line up.

So lets now lets get into the best (and worst) of the Grand Championship round two!




GRizzEAT Vs ILLoKWENT

This battle was supposed to of happened a few months ago for the LBT Championship. these two guys were considered favourites for the Grand Championship, with this battle being citied as a probable final. On this occasion the LBT Champion was in lethal form, and won by a solid margin, to head into round three with a huge amount of momentum.

---------------

Dean Vs Manhattan

This was probably the closest fought battle of the tournament so far. Both brought there own signature styles and put on a great clash. For Dean to exit in the second round after posting a verse like this is a terrible shame, but Manhattan can go on content that regardless of what happens now, he's already had a classick.

---------------

AmBitiousFlow Vs AfterThought

This all-MM clash was a banger, with the two trading punches throughout. The end result was a close one, with Ambo exiting a tournament surprisingly early, and AfterThought threatening to fulfil his potential at long last.

---------------

Deja Bleu Vs Dissizit

Bleu put in a great effort against one of the tournaments favourites. Bleu's strong performance made this an intriguing battle, and Dissizit was lucky he respected his opponent and dropped heavy, because this close battle could of quite easily been the upset of the tournament.

---------------

Dysfunctional Vs Lockhart

Despite the one-sided percentage result, this battle was nonetheless a hard fought and quality clash of bars. Lockhart was able to keep his verse a level above his opponents throughout to claim another strong victory.




Agonize Vs Fidel Z

The form of both these battlers prior to this battle could not of been more different. Agonize who had been in a massive slump since winning his JOB Championship, had struggled for months to defeat a really strong foe, whilst Fidel Z has been over-performing for nearly half a year, racking up a 5-1 LBT record and running through everyone put infront of him. However in a battle you are only as good as the verse you post, and Agonize pulled a victory out of the bag to score the rounds only upset.




The biggest disappointment without doubt was the no-show of Subreal. Sub, considered the tournaments most likely dark-horse, came into the tourney with a huge amount of hype, and to crash out on a second round no-show was a terrible way for his momentum to halt. The only other disappointment of the round was due to another unfortunate GC tradition: The bad loser. With both Rohaan and ET the Refugee letting themselves down by blaming anything and everything, besides there bars, on there losses. Lets hope this is a tradition that ends with the next rounds results.
