This argument is not valid. They have big battles the better part of a year old not released, yet the "app only" events are there in a day or two. They need to be held accountable. People need to stop making excuses for them.

No excuses and its not argument; just an observation. I'm just sayin' from having the app, I have seen a ton of fans bytch about whatever big battles that haven't dropped which them very reluctant to check out the new talent. Pretty much like YouTube. Like in real time...let's say a PG drops that has two guys the mass majority of the battle rap fanbase isn't familiar with. I swear, I have watched the real comments pop up one by one where fans within a minute of not even watching the battle complain. That is all I am sayin'.

PG/unknowns should go right to YouTube, they're just using them as filler for the app, WHICH MAKES ZERO SENSE because they're sitting on battles people have wanted to see for MONTHS. shyt is retarded.

i still fukk with the app but i could see canceling it for some people. it depends on your budget and how many other monthly subscriptions you got. I dont spend on that much bs so i got a few extra and im a big battle fan so I fukk with the app but at the same time yeah i could do without it and just watch the ppvs if I had to

At this moment the App is really only for those that don’t buy PPV and Born Legacy battles

Yea since I catch most of the ppvs I care about im taking a break from the app, maybe there will be releases in the future that make it feel like a must have , but I'm good with catching shyt on ppv for now

Nah it makes sense. Its just a risk they are taking to promote the new talent to their fanbase. Now the whole thing sitting on bigger battles and not releasing I don't agree with. And that makes not supportive of the names they don't know.

You said it right. Fans looking for names will be pissed. Most times, they are not willing to give new talent the views and if they do, people complain about them and always want a rush job on the battles with the bigger names.

My only gripe with the app is some of the user ability to pick where you left in a battle if you want to go back to it. And the point system can be cheated clicking on the hand each time til you max out at 30.
To be fair though, paying customers should be expecting battles from people they at least know. There's no point in having a lot of these lesser known battlers on the app instead of YouTube except to just fill a content minimum.
