Can’t let you be the only one to trawl the archives so I just went back and I’ve made this list based not necessarily on my opinion but on what voters said about the battle being close or numerically close winning margins. Some are obviously better than others but I tried to draw a varied shortlist. (I’m aware a lot of my battles are in here I’m not vein being or claiming I was dope, to clarify, but based off the criteria above they match and just goes to show I managed to narrowly lose a lot)

Sf jack vs virb - a masterpiece
Wk7 virb and faq vs slayerr and Dave dilly (in name only) - most voters said it was fire
Wk6 jack vs faq - very close winning margin 3-2 if I’ve just remembered correctly
Wk 6 virb vs slayerr - voters said it was close and bags vote said it was a contender
Wk6 shaman vs mal - we got to see what shaman is all about and a very strong turn out from mal made a dope battle
Wk4 miracle vs slayerr - probably the closest vote wise 4-3 - honestly I forgot about this battle and assumed miracle no showed, was fuming when I realised I lost

Shout out week 6 that week was fire

Some good suggestions in there appreciate that @Slayerr.
agreed wk6 was fire I had daveDILLY vs Spree on my shortlist

@Jack Hallows @FaQEyeReddit you mind droppin your references in the thread plz? I'll feel like a bit of a cunt if i vote & miss stuff

Jack vs Slayerr was fire. I particularly enjoyed FaQ and I vs Slayerr and Dave. I’ll reread some more from previous rounds, there have been a lot of great battles.

Oh shit I didn’t really think much about that battle but just reread it and it was dope, feel the lack of votes on there made me sleep on it which is a shame really I was dead proud of that batter you in the mix bar I dropped - came up with it whilst flipping a pancake

Island shots was dope though but overall I feel like some of the word play didn’t work to me and threw me off your verse and your punchlines weren’t as well executed as usual. I feel like you’ve come better and I don’t know if it’s just me but I’m not fucking with this too much.

Jack - Again I feel the same as I did about faqs, not fucking with this too much. I like the nursery rhyme but the set up was needlessly long, Reddit bar was meh, mad coincidence you both had tourniquet in your verses. I really liked face paint the pavement and hare outta the hat was a dope closer.

Maybe it’s just the way I’m feeling personally when voting today but both these verses just fell really flat to me with the exception of jacks closer and face paint the pavement. Those bars were enough for the W but overall his verse was just more direct and attacking

Damn Slayerr. got his inner Tommy Robinson coming out haha "If they're not british, fuck em, who's got some gear?"
I know where you're coming from though. Back in the day I'd only seen Don't Flop battles then saw Lux vs Calicoe & didn't get it at all. Now I have a hard time getting through most uk battles. I think you got to keep up with the culture or it just goes over your head. the "who oppose" I took as "who-uh pose", kind of a colloquial version of "who will/would pose". Embrace it, it makes writing new shit way easier, "after I hunt em? the pray a rot like chinese gamers" wouldn't exist without it. Maybe not a bad thing. Wasn't long ago gun bars in the UK were pretty taboo tho.

Hahaha nah faq even said in his break down oppose/ a pose. O and A just sound different and that’s how I read it. I was aware I was being maybe a bit blunt but it was my honest opinion at the time nothing to do with uk/us cultural differences it just wasn’t resonating with me. Plus I kind of agree in love uk battling gun bars need to be good coz how many fucking guns do you come across in the uk, they’re hard to get hold of unless it’s one of those stubby little shotguns travellers use so it just screams fake for a uk cat to be preaching them to the audience but if it’s a good bar allow it init. but again that’s a tangent to the battle in hand

Nothing wrong with being blunt I can respect that, different opinions makes this shit what it is. Gun crimes relatively common in parts of the shit hole that is huddersfield, I'd obviously never attempt to do so due to them being illegal but they're pretty easy to 3d print & assemble nowadays too. Sucks for society but +1 for battle bar legitimacy haha

So you'd rather him bust the hardest rhymes about his backdoor encounters with "the throbbers", is it?

I think if you’ve just printed your gun off the printer you shouldn’t be able to use the bar coz that shits lame af

I need help. Help!
