I'll explain this...
a topical battle simply means that both emcees write verses pertaining to a topic... creatively... not directed in any way towards the other mc. The Battle part comes into play because the verses are voted on and a winner is declared. So if you want to call it a topical tournament or whatever do what works for you, but the purpose is not to "dis" the other emcee. Don't worry too much Jack, you weren't sure what was going on... now you're aware for next week.

That being said...
both verses sucked.
I didn't like the direct battle approach but he wasn't sure of the purpose. You incorporated the topic however and it kinda worked.

Will- your verse was terrible man. The lines were so drawn out I had to read it like a five year old for it's rhyme scheme to work. And that same story stuff is boring... it's really boring and I didn't care for it.

Don't mean to be hard on you but it doesn't get across when I'm nice.
Jack won this.... and i don't know how.
