Top 20 Text Battlers of All Time - Page 7

This is always a pointless endeavor, everybody is going to have their own lists based on their own sites and experiences, people will always think those who battled when they did were the best because that is all they know. You may get a top 3 max that everyone can agree on but even that is unlikely.

Even a decade ago I was much more intelligent than everyone else who posted itt.

UPN had the best league three years running back then. So much talent that some of your favorites now would probably barely make the playoffs. Ask @ill nik-A about that. RBL was the same way for a bit, they had more longevity but I think the PBA had a little bit better talent.

I remember aura going like 20-2 in the RBL and being mid-tier in the PBA, which was invite-only if I recall.

Yeah, I think he battled Storm-G just to get in the playoffs as a bottom seed.

Edit; Storm or Zuch or Eye-Z / Bobby D, I can't remember.

He's still on RM. He doesnt battle anymore but he frequents the Audio Emcee Discussion section.

I battled most heavily between '01 and '07. Probably had 150 or so battles and I can only recall legitimately losing 5 or so. I never had much desire to roam around various other sites. One site has more than its due portion of personalities and nuance to keep up with. I found it hilarious when I did join whatever site it was and found people like Kungfugrip who and the whole circle of people being mentioned here who looked at text as some sort of network of sites lol I'm not saying there's anything wrong with it, I just didn't care about knowing who anyone was off of the site I posted at. These lists aren't lists, just an excuse for a bunch of nerds to talk about their hobby for the millionth time. The culture is so funny, though, because most of you are always projecting an image that can't just be the fag nerds you are.

I don't mind being a nerd about it, but yes, it's an excuse to reminisce. With that said, what used to happen all the time was people who were winning a lot at one site would get talked into going elsewhere. That's what created the network. That, and the fact that RapMusic was just enormous. At one point it had something like 150 people in its battle league and 70 people in its topical league.

Yo if ur not top 50 in what you do I suggest you continue to the play the sideline. You underachieved, it happens.

Witty · 01-10-2014, 02:33 PM

I agree with dull boy to a certain extent, no list can ever be definitive and different people from different sites at different times will all have different lists, and I don't buy the 'the older writers were better' shit because I think the talent level of topical writers has kept getting higher and higher over the years, and that some of the ppl mentioned would struggle against some of the newer writers...but there are definitely a few names we can all agree deserve to be recognized as the best.

Wise Wiggles · 01-10-2014, 02:37 PM

Aero how much confidence did you gain by sucker punching a 5'8" Puerto Rican pudgeball?

Just curious..

I don't respect your opinion, Aero, but thanks for the kind words.
