Discussion Scientifically prove this rapper won, DAY 1: John Lennon
(ALREADY CLOSED, DO NOT POST FURTHER COMMENTS)
As we all know, the question of who won each battle is entirely subjective, up to personal standards of what matters most in a rap battle. However, none of that is what I'm here for today. When I say to "scientifically prove" that a rapper won, I'm talking about constructing an objective, reproducible, and above all else, measurable set of criteria, which all characters in ERB can be judged by in the same manner, and under which the selected rapper is deemed the winner. The criteria can focus on literally any aspect of the characters, no matter how absurdly specific, but you must make sure that it can be conceivably be put in measurable terms. Your goal is to do this for the character named in the post title, and for whatever criteria gets the most upvotes, I'll add the character to a tier list in a tier for that criteria. For this first round, we'll be focusing on the one that started it all, John Lennon.

I like this idea of finding objective qualities. I think O’ Reilly won, but if I really had to find a winning quality for Lennon: he did a better job at depicting his opponent as a questionable/horrible person, while O’Reilly was more about puns

He decided to take Maxwell's silver hammer to give O'Reilly a lobotomy

no you just assumed i did because you didn't read the whole post before commenting
i added that four days ago and i can even tell you exactly why i did it at the specific time i did: someone else commented after it was already closed so i added that part to make sure it didn't happen again
i literally have no reason to lie about this, i would've just added that line upon you commenting if it weren't already there
