[T-K-G]

nikkas is really making their opinions invalid with their top 5 lists




i wouldn't be surprised if the next nikka said brixx and bill collector are top 5 material with undefeated records

 

[Ghostface Trillah]

Lux is #1 but in a way he isn't.

He's undefeated from the DVD era,but it wasn't the amount of talent that there is now although even then his lyrics,performance,and presence was light years ahead of everyone else at the time and is still ahead of the cats now. You literally have to slow down a whole lux verse. He's the one everybody is gunning for,beating lux means more than beating anyone else. Lux is easily the most feared and the most respected battle and that says a lot seeing how he hadn't had a battle in years.

But....

He isn't really a active battler so its hard to justify putting him above all the dudes battling 2-3 times a
year. You can't really categorize him with them. He came from battling but is pretty much moved on.

With that said, of popularity,name buzzing, and all that other stuff y'all rate. Hollow is #1 whether you like it or not but even he knows he got the crown by default and that's why he wants lux so bad.

My top 5 right now

1) Loaded Lux (Best. Period)

2) Hollow Da Don (Most versatile)

3) Tsu Surf (Only battled twice in the last 12 months, and both were top 5 battles of the year)

4) JC (Can make a case he has never lost a battle)

5) T-Rex (Is he the most talented? Hell no. But you can't argue against consistency. He always puts on a good performance, battles anyone, anywhere, at any time).

 

[7PHX]

Hollow and Hitman the two best performers, Big T has the craziest bars (not counting Lux as active)

i'd def have all of them in my top 5 too,



rex does get points for showing up and being consistent but i couldn't put him in my five, have no respect for dude

i'd put yung ill up there too for now


but i really wanna see if b magic can snap on a veteran first

You're forgetting the bodybag of Brixx Belvedere but yeah, Tsunami always has one of the best battles each year. Thats why he's definitely in my top 5 fave battlers, but I cant justify calling him a top 5 battler period. He has a strategy that gets him debateable wins but not the respect of top names. His next battle he needs to really show what he's capable of if he wants that respect from his peers.

JC has literally battled NO ONE and Yung Ill hasnt even made your top 5 over Rex so how can JC be there?

Rex has a debatable loss to Yung Ill, a debateable win over Conceited, and a cheap victory over Verb who's only victory in the past few years is a CLOSE 2-1 over Hitman.

I dont think u can justify those last three breh

 

[JMurder]

I just realized tha Summer Madness 2 was a terrible card as far as positioning battlers on any kind of scale. Honestly, who's position has changed following the Summer Madness 2 card excluding MAYBE Calicoe. At the very most, all it did was add two names for consideration

Hollow and Hitman the two best performers, Big T has the craziest bars (not counting Lux as active)

Hitman is a top performer, but who has he beat that was actually good all around? Lost to Verb, got killed be a mediocre Hollow, and had to settle for a gimme victory over the Other Da Don. If he's in your top 10, he should be at the end of it. I personally think Tsu Surf is gonna try and show out against Holla so he can get battles against larger names...and I think he could do it
