Hey, I want to welcome all of you to
The K.Stubbs Mag Volume 3


Once again, i want to thank all of you for showing last week. Off the top of the head, i believe we only had 2 no shows. Steady improvement, I Like it. Overall most of the battles went pretty smooth last week, not many problems at all. 1 big thing though is still voting, not as much the casting of the votes, but the reasoning behind the votes. I don't want individuals here, to think this league's voters aren't basing their votes correctly. Which means basically voting for the better rhyme, rather then deeper wordplay, I'm sure some... if not all of you understand what i'm saying. This league has yet to meet its highest potential, even though week after week we are constantly gaining more promise in battlers then any other league on rv. Every battle, IF every individual drops @ least half descent. Then every one of those match ups could be dope. Another thing, it is week 5 people. Which means alot of things take place next week, If you feel like you might not be able to show. PLEASE pm me or post it in your battle thread. Because as of next week, you WILL be getting booted, no matter who you are. Also, The individuals that have failed miserably to show potential will also be getting the boot. The voting requirment will take effect as well. Lets bring it out, i want to see some dope lines this week.


Week 4 Review


Big Picture 2-1 .vs. Jay-Brook 2-1

This battle was probably the most understood battle of last week. Big's first punch actually had some pretty damn good wordplay. The concept of the line was ok in the set up, but could have been followed through with a better finisher. I think with some punctuation lessons, Big shows some of the biggest potential in the league. Both of jay's punches still weren't his best. simple concepts, that with his wording could be dope...but his failure to use proper punctuation as well, cost him the W' here. Big Wins.


TonyTone 3-0 .vs. kid sick 0-0

What i thought would be a good match up. Failed miserably, in the end of this one. Tony pulled off a victorious win against kid. After having to restart the thread. Tony dropped somewhat of a clever line. Not sure how played the concept was. But in my opinion was worded good, 2nd bar wasn't as impressive, simple but ok. Kid's wording is definately the only thing that killed him here, bad punctuation as well. def. see potential though.


FlowIntelligent 3-0 .vs. -Coop- 1-0

One of the best battles of the week. Both individuals dropped witty, and came consistent. Both of flow's bars were fresh concepts, that were even worded pretty good, but coops power to flip as well as using the feed method caught him another win here. Good job, here guys!


Brandon Cielasek 2-1 .vs. Lay Fear 2-1

Brandon came ok, had his wording down pat with both bars here. Total concept of each line was also ok as well. Where as, lay fear came with good concepts just failing to word them properly. Wound up being a one sided match up here, and Brandon walks away with it.


Rival. 2-1 .vs. Jonathon 2-1


Should have been a good battle here, however Rival failed to show on this one, and Jonathon recieved the no show win.


bobericc lyrics 0-2 .vs. Sheist 1-0

^Yay!. bobby showed here, wasn't all that witty. simple concepts, but i guess sometimes ones that can go along way. Sheist tried to match it up, but failed completely Bob pulls the win here, and Sheist gets the loss


Showcase 3-0.vs. top C krit. 0-0

Top definately showed some type of potential here, showed some wittyness, but couldn't pull it off completly. both bars lacked in proper wording. Where as, Showcase dominated by executing both of his bars with good wordplay.
Overall not a totally bad battle. But Show walks with this one.


Zelph 3-0 .vs. Thoth 3-0

Definately could have been a good battle here, however Zelph declines thoths wish for an extension and pulls the Win here.


K.Stubbs 1-2 .vs. Aphillyate 0-0

I definately tried to come witty here, I pretty much just got personal with him. Used a some what fresh concept, then came weak with my 2nd bar. Aphillyate failed to puncuate properly, as well as execute the wording in all of his lines. I caught the win here. Good battle A'


Popcorn. 1-2 .vs. Cocaine 0-0

Could have, should have, would have been a good battle had cocaine showed.
Pop strutted away with the no show win here.



K.ontroverz.Y 1-0 .vs. DaTrusHurts 2-1


Potential to be a dope matchup wound up being a lil one sided. Kontroversy failed to come fresh here, and his played concepts got em the loss here. Both bars were simple, but with the right wording (which you can do) could have been much better. DaTrus, once again just droppin enough into his lines, he caught another win.


Jonny Hustle 1-1 .vs. Defined 0-1


Boo, jonny Make sure to show me something better this week.

Number 5.

^seriously couldn't find another descent punch. Not many this week, this was actually pretty hard to choose. Some witty attempts but nothing fell top 5 worthy in my opinion except a couple. Better drops equal better outcome.
