Personally felt this was one of the better battles this week... But not the best. Body did so well last week I think he set his own bar too high because whilst this was still one of the better showings I felt it was slightly under par for what I expected. Hard to say if that effected my opinon when reading it but I tried to base it solely on its merit here. Zelph felt rushed in places an lost his momentum near end.

Anyway that being said. Felt body had the better concepts and z had the better wording. It's tight.

Z I liked the opener, not incredibly creative with the quote but it was funny an nasty. The flea follows the same critique. Funny nasty. Mr krabbs whale made me lol. Baby carriage is probably your best conceptually and worst for wording ironically. Side piece feels like it should be played. I can't think of an example. But yeah it definitely works. Thumbnail open her up was worded lovely. I didn't really care for the last two bars an found the body morgue one utterly lazy an devoid of any momentum you had going before it.

Body
Opener was ok. It wasn't crazy but as a generic it hits. Resident evil not my cup of tea tbh so reference is lost on me although I can imagine so I'm not going to put it down as a miss. Just probably will be better for people who arnt using intuition. The street fighter bar cool, bit on the swag side but I liked it. I really liked hovering over the plate because it's an American sports bar I actually fucking get. Mr clean was meh for me. Tribal necklace feels s bit like zelphs side piece where I'm sure it's played but if it is its not one I've seen in a long time an I really enjoyed how you worded it. Longhorn...now I like the idea behind this bar. But does longhorn work here?
Hated the closer tbh.

Tight battle.

If longhorn is a gun bar which is what I'm thinking your going for it's not something I've ever heard. An that's a shame because the bar had so much potential.

For me It comes to preference and on second read I preferred the laughter from zelphs then the more intricate ideas from body.

Vote Zelph but good showing both
