I can see JC losing to DNA. He doesn't even try to get the crowd in some of his battles. He's kind of robotic with dope lines and then he's up against a guy with style and personality. JC always has the same look on his face as he watches some guy run away with the crowd. DNA can work a crowd better than JC so I can see a clear DNA 2-1as long as DNA doesn't get too corny.

That's exactly how it will go. JC will get one round, because his pen is so crazy. But DNA will run away with the crowd.
JC really got on Angryfan and said "You should NEVER allow your performance to overshadow your bars". Maybe I'm tripping, but it doesn't sound like something a battler striving to become top-tier would ever worry about. If your performance is crazy, you get the building, even if the fans didn't catch the whole bar. Then the people who watch it on video will see the performance AND catch the bar.
If he's happy doing what he's doing, then I respect it totally. But he's pretty much going to stay where he's at.

Is Trez in the beginning stages of getting his "Xcel" on for 2016?

I also saw his name on another flyer not too long ago. Can't really remember what league.

Is it safe to assume he won't be on the URL anytime soon?




I think that's what he's doing. He doesn't want to sit out and possibly get caught up in the URL "I'm not sure if this guy is ready for the stage" matrix. Flying all the way out here to battle on URL for free doesn't make as much sense for him as it does a guy like Scotty.
There are people like Danny Myers & DNA who are successfully doing what guys like Xcel & B. Magic were trying to do. JC had a run of killing Joe Shmoes. So maybe we should lay more blame on the battlers level of prep, than on their actual plan. If Trez can pull it off, more power to him.

Tay Roc the best nikka on URL.

I haven't given this category a lot of thought, but I would have to say Sug head and shoulders above Roc for 2015... but I've always struggled with understanding Roc's appeal. I'm not even as high on Sug as many are here, but he's doing everything URL dudes are supposed to do.. street shyt, real talk, aggression/tension, and most of all, consistency.

There's different kinds of schedules.

I would say if you want to battle everywhere, dna/clips & todd when he chooses to have the best schedules because they are all in decent platforms.
Url, kotd, df, ibattle, black ice, gw, etc.

Actually, xcel gets those platforms too. Seems like jc was on some of the shyttiest platforms during his run.

Chef will probably be on street style battle leagues only type of schedule. Youll see leagues I have never heard of like the video posted.
