Hmmm.... okay let me say that this is almost too close to call, so I gotta break it down...
Adept you made a valiant attempt to write your illest book huh? I guess Hydro got under your skin enough that you felt the need to post such a long verse to try and crush him. And in a way, you did with personal jabs like...
Ayo fuck this sensitive little herb//
I think it got on his nerves/
When I made him realize,
Last round he got served//
Hydro you just a fucking fake bitch/
You think your structure's ill but it's still too basic//
Sun said you're the best noob but that ain't shit
It was time Dro got twisted up and smoked like a blunt
Cuz recently he's been coming on here just to post like a cunt
Plus the Chocolate Rain got a chuckle outta me that was nice. I also noticed that at first you tried to mimic his writing style, then reverted back to your normal text form. That was a decent tactic.
Your wordplay was your typical, "I'm gonna chop your head half way to watch it hang" gore-fest shit that you normally overload your verses with. It was corny in some spots (i.e. Repeatedly beat you over the head with your keyboard
Then pelt you with the mouse just to help you bleed more) but for the most part, pretty effective. I dug the break your legs line, it's been overused on numerous occasions but you made it work for you. And your last line was okay, but it was an abrupt ending to an otherwise stellar verse for your standards.
Your multies were fair as well, yet not that hard-hitting. The cops insane part was completely filler, and you continuously feel the need to refer to yourself as a vet when that doesn't make a shred of difference. Being a vet on this site means absolutely shit when you're facing someone with writing talent, which Hydro definitely has. You can't take that away from him, regardless of whether he's been posting here for ten years or two weeks.
Your punchlines were decent but nothing spectacular... blind people/charades... no arms/shave ya face etc. not bad though by any means. You rhymed them pretty well.
And your last line was an abrupt, lackluster ending to what was an otherwise stellar verse by your standards. It was respectable but I felt you could've done a lot better. Shortened, it could've been much harder, but the length watered it down somewhat. Overall I give your verse a 4/5.
Hydro... you started off with some very basic punches. Throwing diamonds in the river/wasting my shine?? watch on a corpse? Hmmph... okay but not a strong enough start IMO. Then your verse got stronger as it went along...
In your own mind I guess you think you're the best/
But get a clue gumshoe,
Just cause you're an old head that don't make you a vet/
Just cause we don't call you out that doesn't mean it's respect/
It's cause you been logged on here for years,
And we ain't seen real shit yet/
I demand more than illusions of grandeur/
I'll Lt. Dan this Stan/
So we keep see just what this dude stands for/
I dug that... personal and pretty hard-hitting. You had a bit of filler too though bro..
Why'd you try to grow balls,
To talk out your ass for?/
You could've left with a cut,
Why'd you ask for gash for?/ I dug where you were going with this, but it didn't come off that hard to me.
You just mad cause so far I'm having a heavy year/
I would call you trash,
But that's an insult to garbage everywhere/ That has been used many times.
I think your multies were on a decent level, then they picked up near the end of your verse, with the cozumel line, on through the train wreck line.
Your punches were alright (the Michael Vick line was gold), but I didn't like that Ricky Bobby punch at all.. just didn't do it for me. You redeemed yourself with the Shawshank line tho... that is a nice twist to an otherwise old shit punchline. I dug your ending line on the name change, although since this is the 2nd round it pretty much is the sequel.
Overall... this is a very close call and honestly it could definitely go either way, it just depends on the viewers perspective. But in my opinion I feel Hydro just came off a little more original... and in a battle this close, the more original lines get it for me because you cats were pretty much even steven for all other categories. So the verses are
Adept 4/5
Hydro 4.3/5
Hydro round 2... but very very very close.... nice battle gentleman.
That's my story and I'm stickin to it.
