**1. Verb vs. Hitman (3rd) -* No explanation needed *2. Lux vs. Calicoe (3rd) - No explanation needed *3. Thesaurus & Illmaculate vs. Syanide & Majesty (2nd round, 1st battle) – I feel like the WRCs don’t get enough love on these lists. Watching Thesaurus and Mac going back and forth on Syanide and Majesty off the top (or close enough) like this is something I don’t think I’ll ever see again. “Getting your Wallabys, written apology”/ “Barkley ain’t won a championship”/Lord of the Rings/ “Buck fifty” *4. Justice vs. Thesaurus (4th) – The build up to "a day late" and "Kylie Minogue" combined with the stakes make this a timeless classic. *5. Hollow vs. Clips (1st) - Hollow ruined Clips for me with this one. "See how easy it is to predict that?"/"Guess what room I'm in!" *6. Hollow vs. Okwerdz (3rd) – Okwerdz looks like he’s going to cry at the end of this round. “I will – I will kill Okwerdz too”/ “Just o.k. with the words (Werdz)”/The shit about Okwerdz spending promo money/ “Non-Perishables put him on the creamy peanut butter” *7. Thesaurus & Illmac vs. Hom & Piff (1st) – Almost as good as their 2nd against Syanide and Majesty. “I’m the guy that put out the homicide”/ “The fat guy is referencing McDonalds fries”/ “opposite ends of an eating disorder”/ “lowercase b.” *8. Chilla vs. Daylyt (3rd) – No typo. Day is nuts with the Michael Jackson and rock, paper, scissors bits, but Chilla executes his style perfectly all the way through. Taken 2/ “family cursed, every kin a D (Kennedy) decreased”/ “blew Meth like Heisenberg” with Meth standing right there/ Washington with the Hawke, Training Day/tomorrow, next day. *9. Nitty vs. Ave (1st…or maybe 2nd) – I almost kept this off the list since it’s so recent, but I’m pretty confident that this one will hold up over time. *10. Illmacualte vs. Bigg K (3rd) – No explanation needed
Almost made it: *B Magic vs Chilla (1st) *Chilla vs JC (1st) *Eyedea vs RK (last round) *Conceited vs. Surf (1st) *Clips vs Rex (3rd) *Hollow vs T (can’t pick one) *Pesci vs. Tantrum (GOAT OT round) *Daylyt vs Clips (1st) *Bender vs Syd (2nd) *Pat Stay vs Marv (1st) *Fresco 3rd vs. Thesaurus (3rd)
