jilti: I liked the Suge Knight line as a concept, but that wording style always bothered me. See, if "Marion" is meant to be a verb and "Knight" is meant to refer to Allen, then "him" would be referring to Allen as well. But I get that your wording choice falls in line with a very conventional structure, so I'm not holding it back. That was a solid line in that format. Hostess lines are old, and I didn't get the Michael Sam line. Sam didn't get outed; he came out on his own terms. The line about armour didn't make much sense the way it was worded. The "blowout or by a hair" idea should have been flipped to incorporate the blowout hairstyle into the play. The Keenan Allen line was good. This was a very average and typical battle verse. Nothing stood out. Your wording, rhyme mechanics and punch concepts all could use some work but fall about even par with what's expected.

Allen Knight: The Juicy J and J Gatsby lines had real potential but not enough thought put into making the closing phrases tougher or cleverer. The J & Silent Bob line was a complete miss, and pub crawl lines really require more originality and specificity. Tommy John surgery was OK. That would have been way, way better with a Tanaka wordplay or something. So the only line that really landed for me was the pussy terrain wordplay, which I haven't seen and worked even though I don't know what this guy looks like. This was below what I expect from you, for sure. The big misses and sloppy phrasing cost you the battle.
