Title Match: #Robbery




This battle brings up a large issue I have with judging systems and the general fanbase of battle rap: creativity is not rewarded and played out concepts are far too often given a free pass, or in this instance praised. Isaac Knox is a Christian, cool, pointing out facets of Christianity isn't actually punching it's just listing things.
Also crowd pandering can far too easily get out of hand, especially on smaller leagues. Isaac Knox will always get Christian jokes and seeing as Illipsis already did three rounds of them recently surely something more interesting could've been thought up, but edgy Atheists just can't help themselves.
Isaac Knox has been getting robbed for the longest. Hopefully his recent two great showings on the KOTD GZ get him a mainstage at the bunker or something.
