It's really those 3rds for Lux; they're aren't as hard hitting as they once were. I don't think you can hit so hard with a third against Calicoe and not really top it off afterwards. Because we as fans want that from Lux when he is battling. I personally do not think he has lost it these past few battles at all. @FreshAIG is right about some of the delivery with those lines; I think it's the setups that are way too layered as well. He can breeze right by a pretty heavy scheme delivering it weird and you end up catching it later.

Exactly. His schemes are unnecessarily layered for battle rap. That’s why I said before I think Lux raps to impress himself and push his ability. But that’s not conducive to this era. Mind you, I still think he won all these battles but I understand why people will say he lost.

Thanks :myman:

I'm a programmer myself, so also will be paying attention to functionality and how the app is designed :mjpls:

But more importantly as someone not in the US am glad I can support the culture and get to talk about the battles in the app:myman:

Well cot damn...you're a programmer? Nice.
Front end? Back end? Or both?
I can tell you right now, the user ability is half assed with the ability not to be able to come back to a battle you may have had to finish later. YouTube spoiled us.
