Re: HipsterSamuel reviews
Here's my review of ZombieLicker's Midas vs. Medusa. Next is Thomas Edison vs. Nikola Tesla.
[spoiler:3hfffl00]Medusa-Round 1: This verse isn’t bad, but the references aren’t really jokes as much as they are just listing feats. I’d prefer if the references tied in with some jokes. 6.5/10
King Midas-Round 1: Some of the lines in this verse have good beginnings, but weak ends that seem like they’re just there to make it rhyme. Still, it has some funny lines. 7/10
Medusa-Round 2: This verse is a pretty big step up from the last verse. The references in this verse are more clever and the jokes are funnier. 8/10
King Midas-Round 2: The Perseus line is decent, but the rest of the verse is mainly explaining things about her instead of making jokes about her. It’s not enough for Midas to keep the lead. 6.5/10
Overall: This battle has some enjoyable lines, but it could use some work. Some of the lines seem to just be there to provide a rhyme, others aren’t really jokes, but some lines are clever. 7/10
Final Results:
Medusa: 14.5/20
King Midas: 13.5/20
Total Score: 35/50[/spoiler:3hfffl00]
Re: HipsterSamuel reviews
Here's my review of Nikola Tesla vs. Thomas Edison. Next is Julius Caesar vs. George Washington.
[spoiler:12p6x434]Beat: It’s catchy for most of the battle, but when it needs to get dramatic, it gets dramatic. This is a beat that really does its job well. 9/10
Impressions and Costumes: Nobody knows what Tesla sounded like, but I did hear a recording of Edison once, and this sounds nothing like him. Tesla’s costume is good, Edison’s looks too young. 7/10
Thomas Edison-Round 1: The first line is very clever. The verse doesn’t have a great middle, but the screw line is great, and the last line is the best of the battle, in my opinion. 8.5/10
Nikola Tesla-Round 1: It sounds cool, but lyrically, nothing in this verse really blew me away. The last few lines aren’t bad, but this verse isn’t as good as Edison’s. 8/10
Thomas Edison-Round 2: I didn’t realize how great the first line was until I saw the real lyrics. This is actually a really clever verse, with some really insulting lines and good points. 9/10
Nikola Tesla-Round 2: It’s clear they were trying to swing the battle for Tesla, but I don’t really think they succeeded. It sounds incredible, but if you analyze the lyrics, you won’t find much. 8/10
Overall: Everybody had high expectations for this, and I think it was very good. It sounds very intense overall, and while it’s not the best battle to me, it’s a very memorable one. 8.5/10
Final Results:
Thomas Edison: 17.5/20
Nikola Tesla: 16/20
Total Score: 58/70[/spoiler:12p6x434]

Thanks. I agree with your review on just about everything except Edison's 2nd verse.

Re: HipsterSamuel reviews
Here's my review of Rick Grimes' Julius Caesar vs. George Washington. Next is Joseph Stalin vs. Adolf Hitler.
[spoiler:83ef42l3]George Washington-Round 1: The puns about Caesar’s name are pretty good. Some lines don’t seem to really reference anything, though. 7.5/10
Julius Caesar-Round 1: These lines focus more on insulting the USA than insulting George. Some of the insults work well, others don’t. 7/10
George Washington-Round 2: A hilarious beginning, but the rest of the verse isn’t as funny. The lines are most above average, but nothing too amazing. 7/10
Julius Caesar-Round 2: This is the best verse of the battle in my opinion. Some lines don’t really work well, but some likes, like the Cleopatra line, are pretty nice. 8/10
Overall: A good battle, but some lines still seem pointless. I’d give some advice, but from what I’ve read from your next battle, you might already have things figured out. 7.5/10
Final Results:
George Washington: 14.5/20
Julius Caesar: 15/20
Total Score: 37/50[/spoiler:83ef42l3]
