Rebirth 2012: TOURNEY FINAL: Point Blank VS Swift

LMAO @ "Cuba swaying"...how the fuck can you say "I used a Muamba punch first, it was meeeee " and then criticise me in the same post for saying that I've used the same/similar concepts...my point was that, you can generically say "that punch is played", which is vague...but I absolutely know that I have used some of those concepts against Point before. It aint about ego, it's just me saying that he's used some playes that I know have been done before.

That applied to like 3 punches...if I'd came in the thread and said "oh that punch is played, and so is that one" then you'd probably criticise me for not backing it up.

The Muamba punch can hardly be deemed 'played'...it was a hot topic when I wrote my verse (3 days after it happened) and thats why I threw it in. I don't recall seeing anyone else use a Muamba punch apart from you in an open mic, and you used it in a completely different context (I actually used wordplay in my bar and it had relevance). I don't see how you can say that bar felt 'used', when Swift was pulling out avatar/rankings punches, which Gemos and Rameez had both done in the previous rounds of the tourny against me, and on top of that were all the lead/diss-a-point bars that have been used so many times before.

Don't get me wrong, I think Swift had a decent verse, but if you're going to bemoan 'played' punches then at least be consistent

I don't wanna seem like I'm bitching about your vote but I know for a fact you have seen some of those plays before (you voted in the Rameez battle in the first round, for example).

And lol, man I sent YOU my verse at 5:11pm on the 20th, and you dropped your open mic with that second Muamba punch in 4 hours later at 9:11pm, so don't be saying you used it twice before me when you technically never. And no, I'm not saying your bar wasn't a relevant play, but I'm saying mine did have relevance to Swift looking like he was going to no-show, coz he couldn't 'handle the beating' - like Muamba's heart. I fully acknowledge that my verse looks half-assed because it was a few hours before the deadline and I didn't think he'd turn up, but I worded my last couple of bars in such a way that they'd still be effective even if he did show, which thankfully Cuba picked up on. 

Anyway, 3-3

Ill wait lol. the votes are close, lets get the rest in!

Wait, wait...

Re-read my vote. I mentioned that the Muamba line was played - I didn't start yonnering on about how it was ME that used it first - or that I even used it? But you did. I wouldn't ave even mentioned WHO used it if it wasn't for my reply to your shady subliminal voting tactics - so miss me with that 'hypocritical' shit. You said it in your vote when you didn't need to. And your counting is pretty shitty for an accountant. You called him out on 5 used punches.

HAHAHAHAHAHA...that shady subliminal voting, the way I OPENLY come out and breakdown both verses & then give my opinion on which verse is better & then vote that way. That is some shady shit I am up to up, dam, I've been completely rumbled.

But to respond directly to what you said...since you aren't able to do the same thing yourself

I called him out on 5 punches where concepts have been used before...I called him out on 3 where I've used specific punches before: 5*s/3*s (that is ONE), PB/Lead concept (that's TWO), Diss-a-point (that's THREE).

Btw, that shit is arithmetic...not accountancy.

I've not read & I'm not complaining about your vote (because I haven't read it so I don't know what idiotic shit you've been saying in that post)...I was replying to YOU (yes, this is you, Manc, not me, Cuba) saying this:

Manc wrote: you failed to mention that the Muamba line was used by ME in an OM hours after the event had happened

So wait...you wouldn't have even brought it up unless it hadn't been for my reply? Even though my reply was in reply to you bringing it up? Do you know people can actually go back and read the thread and check?

Manc wrote: I'm not arsed who used it first second or third - but the fact it's been used now 5 times within less than a month of it happening, to me, constitutes a played bar.

That is honestly the most ridiculous thing I have ever read in the history of LA (and I've read a lot of posts by Scotty, KayB & Frank White)...so a concept that has been used 4 years ago is FRESH because you haven't seen it (but has been used before), but Point's punch is played because you logged online while Muamba was splayed out on the pitch to get in there first & other people dropped punches (including you) AFTER Point came up with his play. Shit, if it was so played then why did you drop your second Muamba punch?! If being second to something makes it PLAYED, why the fuck are you dropping TWO Muamba punches?!!?!

aha so yea, it was Kay then

sshh Cuba. You talk too much

Id like to point out that its the other way around for me, because you are british of course points verse is going to flow better for you, since I live in the U.S.A Swifts verse has a better flow for me. Just gonna throw that out there. Because I don't think voting based on the flow of 2 different accents is valid

spume corrupt wrote: Well Honestly I reckon you guys had about the same amount of successful hits in this battle. Swift had that Autobot shit his best punch I thought Point had that Wailing wall shit punch of the battle IMO I found Swft’s verse just felt uncomfortable and awkward at times plus some of the wording was sketchy/suspect Point came with that much smoother flow and the verse was polished, so easier reading

My reason for voting? Lol
Do I need one
My vote was the same as 50 percent others
Both was shit
Points less so
Now STFU Gemos
You had yo say now its sway

imo a punch/concept is only played when used in the same concept/worded the same...Points muamba punch wasnt
