Are quote punches an unfair advantage or just gay?
 

Discuss

gay

very gay

very lame / try hardish


only exception is when quoting your opponents whack bars

I like it...lmao

Dudes barely understand the bars as it is.....sumtimes a visual ref is nec....

One quote tho....2 is too much

An it has to be a serious quote.....not just any ole shit

Imo

@ill nik-A

Yeah true seems like a reach for gaining a bar up against an opponent but yeah your right cash could have done it W/ out it

Not gay at all if you execute it properly. Better than having all current event punches or cliche flips

You must be dreaming, damn. Sorry to disrupt your evil plan nerd
But I am showing...
so after this battle you'll just be hanging by urself, like Steven Glansberg

I don't like it... It's like using a pic in a reg battle

I know u liked that line though.
I'm not about searching the forums for a quote.
But if one presents itself right in front of you...

The it shall be used....

the all-mighty Hensley used to do quote punches a lot too

I don't care if god did it

me neither. Just pointing it out for the followers

...what spurred this thread, ole saint Nika?

if its done as the opener of a battle. like quote then verse I can tolerate it. but when people stop a verse to put in quotes that never works imo

Cashius v FGR in a league where only one punch is needed

@Mike Wrecka agreed

See....now this is dif.....imo.

Quotes in a 1-2 battle is just too much. Lame. At least if u use a quote in a reg battle with 20lines u can spin a couple bars off it.

Didn't wanna waste a regular punch, didn't have any other personal information on him, thought I could still get a W by doing it.

I'm really disappointed you guys don't approve. I'll try to do better next time.

Always hated it.

...whats wrong with doing a little bit of research on your opponent?

i think it can work if done right tbh... don't get why people would hate on it

hey you hypocrital melted face jackass, how do you feel about pre match swaying as well as swaying while battles are open?

how do you feel about "rtf" votes?

bitch.

I use them when i rush.

Phone number

Look at the other people sayin it's gay and that should tell you somethin.
It's been part of battles forever, if you do it well it's just another thing to use.

You never used one nik? I'm not sayin you did, fuck if I know.
But most of the OGs in the game did too...resin, butler, user, etc.
Usually ahead of the verse, that's true.

Seems like more of a personal issue you have, G - just my take tho

One at the beginning of the verse. That's it, though. Any more and it's annoying. I try to steer away from using them at this point.

I'd say it also depends on who's doing it for the fuckboys, though. If someone everyone loves is doing it or if it's someone doing it against someone hated, nothing will be said.

Not going to name names, but if you think I'm calling you out, then yes, you are a faggot.

I dare you.

I'm already home I needed entertainment for the traffic jam, u suck like ur text

Depends. Who are you asking? The majority? Smart group in that lot. As far as a public opinion/mob perspective, then quoting punches makes it seem like you care, which is the biggest no no ever these days. If you're being honest, then it depends on what kind of writer you are. Some people use so many tie-ins in verses that picking up on the subtitles are difficult. If you're a writer who uses weak similes, then highlighting the obvious makes you look like an idiot.

Depends on the judges and the individual writer, but the mass blind hate for it is stupid... imo.

I don't think it's an unfair advantage - it's open to everyone to do it

But I do agree that any more than one before you start the verse is annoying, - disrupts the flow/rhythm, - so you better have a damn good line to follow to make up for it

I thought Cash's last week was good enough to do that though

One quote S'all you need

i believe in bringing your oppenant out of the closet in discussion with numerous threads that embarass him before taking jabs. then you dont need qoutes. i honestly dont dig qoutes -cause if i wasnt there for the conversation then it means nothing to me during a battle

bvut if you drag that mutha fucker out in enough in discussion. everybody gonna understand when they see your punches

translation = "I am a coward"

Week 1 NBL season 6 against dia.

You than made a thread in disc asking or better opponents roflz

As to thread, as long as they don't break up the verse it's whatever. Using em in 1-2 bit of a stretch tho.

Thanks for that gem of knowledge, Master of Text Battling. What other advice can you bestow upon us?

That sig slays me.

Lmao good memory Lama

Yeah, I was thinking the same on your first point. Everyone can do it, so not necessarily an 'unfair' advantage.

No hate at Cash either. He know I wasn't talm bout him.

@Cashius


To never pull a fgr

I hate quote puncjes, if you ever notived I barely ever had used anything in my verse other then bars. I quote nothing and figured if someone dont get the reference(which happens a good bit) then i didnt do the bar right or went to obscure with em. i think there gay lol

quute punches is no different then explaining a bar
