[Objective]

Vulgar: Interesting and great opener. Very descriptive as usual, paints a great image of the situation and introduces the characters. Continues on great, rhymescheme on point... Maybe a bit too on point and too descriptive with ''child soldiers, fortified, ages 4-5''. Why? Because what great comes out of a child soldier that young? Are you really telling me the child soldiers they got are 4-5 years of age? If they're strong enough to even carry a gun the recoil would be too much, and in a face-to-face battle they'd lose horribly. I think it would be better if you said they had child soldiers from the ages of 4-5 rather than them being that old cuz it just doesn't really make any sense when it comes down to it, you know? That said anything else is dope af and in your usual style. (''Broken cradles of civilization, delinquents fumbling with pacifiers'' as an example.)

The finnishing lines were dope but kinda drifting apart from the opener where you said someone was having twins, or are you moving away from that now? Love the name of the ''doctor'' as well.

Overall I had some questions about certain things in your piece but the execution was neatly done and tucked in with plenty of imagery, creative, dope technical aspects in the rhyme structure from time to time and on point flow-wise, descriptive as fuck and a story that's easy to engage in. Taking your previous works into account and facing them against eachother with a total score of 10 I'd give this a 7.0/10 due to the stuff I pointed out. If what I pointed out proves to be wrong, feel free to correct me in a PM.

Innovator: You start right off the bat and paints a vivid picture of what's going on. No bullshitting here on what's happening to say the least. You get skyrocketed into the atmosphere you're trying to portray which is dope, but also kinda predictable with the picture given. Yet you managed to get my attention early on by ease and I want to read on to see where it takes me.

The imagery and descriptiveness is nice, ''the dust so thick it covers the bodies that serve as rubble'', I liked that. I didn't like this so much tho; ''we waltz to each bullet thrown.'' Bullets aren't thrown, they're fired, or shot, throwing bullets would make your enemies laugh which might give you an advantage in terms of charging, or you'll just give them supplies if they're lacking ammo. So just like Vulgar did with the ''ages 4-5''-line you sacrifice logic with rhyme-structure. It sounds nice when spoken out loud or read, but it doesn't really serve its purpose when it comes down to it. I love the idea and about the waltz around bullets etc., but I didn't enjoy the execution of it. The following line was pretty dope though.

Overall you did a great job with this piece but it was pretty predictable so you lose quite a bit on the creativity department of the piece as a whole even though there were lines in there that really shined. The rhymescheme is one of the better I've seen from you so that was refreshing to see, and it's cool that you've upped yourself in that department. I think what is left for you is really trying to think a little bit more outside the box in terms of the concept of the piece itself as you certainly have lines that stand out and a flow to go with it. It wasn't bad by all means, thought it was cool and I enjoyed the read, but you still kinda need that little extra to ''wow'' me and earn some votes.

Vote: Goes to Vulgar. Dope battle and I enjoyed both reads. Both stayed on topic as well. Overall I thought Vulgar had the better concept of the piece which was abit more interesting as opposed to Innovators more predictable approach. Both had rhymeschemes and some interesting lines throughout, but Vulgar came out as the victor to me.
