[Inno]

Sym vs Inno:

Good short battle. Just what the league needed this week haha! I thought the topic choice was very tough, not really much to go at other than the psychedelic look and feel it had really which made it hard to write about, or easy to write about, depending on your view. This could have been taken numerous ways depending on the person writing and both showed that. I think Sym may have struggled this week as his verse was very short compared to his hobble walk joint recently. It was almost too brief to really develop it, but he had was good and laced with his trademark flow as scheming. The trouble here was the brevity of it, it seemed to end before it really got going and that was a shame. I liked the idea of it being an allogory for Death and her calling on the crows in the finale. I think it was a good idea conceptually, it just needed some fleshing out maybe.

Inno: Similar story this week with regard to how brief you kept this joint, the assonance used was great as Ender picked up on and really drove this piece. You had deft touches in there too with stuff like "Kaleidoscope eyes" that really show your poetic background can transfer over into the topical world quite nicely. The visual imagery is what brought this to life, and really made it something. It's a tough battle. Sym was easily the better technically proficient writer and Inno had the better theme and execution to his writing, with flow about a tie between the both of you. This is a close one for sure and that's why I've deliberated it back and forth before voting. On third read, I'm gonna edge it to Innovator based on the imagery over the technical skill of Sym this week. Just. Literally only just. Crazily close battle and could go either way!
