Trailers don't work for 2v2.

2v2 battles are just entertainment with nothing at stake. Can't create a serious trailer with content like that.

The whole trailer had the participants looking silly.

We all know Clips & TODD are ass, and Saga & T wasn't a good pairing... The trailer is just a product of a bad matchup and lazy battlers.. Watch how hype and excited we will be for math/tez and brizz/top.

No...the trailer makes the event look corny, not just that battle.

So I think this would be barfest.. but if it's not on URL, it'd be another barfest that gets 25k views and isn't considered at the level it should be.

Yeah, I only mentioned it because URL could put it together. All the comments for Young Kannon's last Smack battle vs Steams are overwhelmingly positive. I don't see why they wouldn't bring him back. The only thing blocking this match-up would be concerns about Young Kannon's profile/views. But I think it's a really good match-up, Rum would be able to go against someone with bars who performs a little more than Ave. I think it would be a good intermediate step towards Tay Roc.

:yeshrug: Don't watch em.

It's just like I feel about the URL v KOTD style clashes that KOTD likes to book. There's an audience for them, so KOTD will continue to book them. But they are terrible to me, so I don't watch them anymore.

I will watch this card because I'm a fan of battle rap. But I hope url realizes this is getting corny and doesn't have another card until 2017.

Even battle rappers on thr card have said this

Clips/ TODD vs Big T/ Saga wasnt a bad battle. It was a good back and forth. Fun sh1t. In the building at least. I think it will be decent on cam.

The trailer wasnt great, I think yall will fukk with the battle tho. Clips/ TODD did a 2nd multiple choice/ guess what room i'm in scheme immedaltely after the one you see in the trailer and it was dope.

Again, it might end up being a weak battle on cam. Dunno until we see it. But it was good in the building.

Looks like Twizz watched all of them and is dropping the "worst" battle first. It was still good but not as hype as the rest of the card. Wish he would drop NYB/ St Louis first but it is what it is

@theflyest you're gonna enjoy at least one or two battles from the event, I'm sure of it
