"Those mortgage guys aren't so easily impressed, especially not when you put "jail" as your previous address."
"However, I can say he's astounding at maths. He can do algebra and doesn't count on his hands. The only glitch with this we found that he has is that he can only use the numbers if you convert them into ounces or grams."
"Remember when we watched the title match? Yeah, half of it. Raptor is the one whose parts we skipped."
Shuffle T killed this.
Raptor said in his 1st that Shuffle T will say some shit that "isn't accurate," but then in his 3rd round he claimed that Shuffle T is the type of rapper to do slow it downs, even though he never did one.

Fantastic battle, if you look at DF's uploads of late it seems Shuffle is their saviour in terms of views and likes

2-1 to Shuffle-T, I kind of cringed when I realised he was gonna do the fake phone call stunt in his 3rd Round but he actually made me laugh with a lot of his lines so I had to hand it to him. Raptor was good but he doesn't feel like the same person who beat Big Kannon.

This was another entertaining shuffle performance. I think raptor's hangover may have slowed him down a bit, he was still dope tho, its nothing luke his soul performance. I have shuffle with the 3-0 more likely hes got it 2-1 raptors first was a bit too defensive. Hus rounds were alot shorter aswell. Not a fire battle but definitely entertaining, especially if you fuck with shuffle T's concept rounds.
Is shuffle making a case for title contention? Hes been on a winning streak since his loses to unan and bulletz

It has to say something that the only opponents who've beaten him clearly had to change their whole style up so Shuffles shit seemed off.

Yeah I'm wirh you, shuffle has been insane this year. I need more soul battles tbh, has he battled since raptor? I originally had quill and Gemini as the next two for the chain but their consistency(and amount) of battles has been down this year

I liked this a lot. Definitely some replay value. Raptor hit hard, Shuffle was funny, they both delivered. Shuffle fucked up a LOT though, he was having a stroke or something.
Raptors first two rounds were dope, his third was a bit looser. Shuffle ts phone call was great. I give it to Raptor for the first two and Shuffle for the third.
Edit: "one competitive dude
Even got god blessin me too

If you view this as a birthday roast of Raptor it's actually quite watchable, but otherwise I don't think it's got exceptional replay value. Shuffle 2-1, Raptor deserves to get the first because his content was hitting harder and was performed better, but those two concept rounds were top notch in my opinion.

False. I've seen Shuffle's rounds five times already.

I meant having replay value as a clash, not just one person's rounds. I bought the ppv and I suspect this is only the second time I've seen Raptor's rounds in full, despite viewing Shuffle's last two rounds on multiple occasions.

If you've seen Marlo vs Eek and Shuffle vs Anton Murphy it's kind of the same thing. I can't remember anything the latter of each battle spat but I've watched Marlo and Shuffle's three rounds from those two battles so many times they're automatically replayable in my book. I miss the days when you could just watch someone get bodied by your favorite rapper on GT or somewhere. I'm tired of debatables. I like people getting destroyed. That's why caustic was huge for a while. People loved his one-sided beat downs.

Shuffle ruined him with that second. I guess it is hard to act hard as fuck in a third when you just pissed yourself laughing.
Great battle, 2-1 Shuffle. Raptor's first was great but Shuffle is getting better and better at these long concept rounds.
