Sensa vs Arcane

[The Mast]

Sensa edged the first, and took the third kind of decisively. I felt the same on the day as I do now.

Arcane's performance was fucking nuts, but then he played the sympathy card and kept talking through the rounds. He was a major ass-kiss.

[TrueDarkSavior]

^ yep, pretty much. I felt like Sensa took the first and the third, but Arcane had the 2nd without a doubt. It was a good battle, but I feel that this was an edge to Sensa. The brother line ended it in the third for me.

[TonyD]

For me, I felt like Arcane won but that is mostly because Sensa rode the same topics the entire battle. With that said, some of Arcane's material was less focused on Sensa and more just general wordplay for the UK crowd. After one watch through I can't think of a decisive winner to any one round.

Regardless, it was a great battle and one that deserves a lot of replays. Eurgh needs to set up Real Deal vs Sensa. Or Sensa vs Cruger (unless that's already happened and I missed it)

i thought it was a close battle ..... but arcane was doing the shit in this battle that makes me dislike him ... like talking threw sensa's bars and bitching..... but i think arcane might have won... but very close

I don't like arcane but i think he took this. I feel sensa had a weaker then normal performance, he can do way better. And the angle of being a old man is played out and used alot, he did have some good punchlines like the sister one too but i agree with the judges decision. Good battle though

[Chromeo]

Sensa made it close with his 3rd round but Arcane definitely takes this.
Cane's 2nd round killed it with the name flips "He's got a sensible diet...he's wearing sensible shoes!"

I have to admit I'm doing a bit of a 180 on Arcane.
When he started out, I wasn't really a fan of his style.
He's definitely come a long way though and is one of KOTD's top-tier for sure.

"So after I spill his Blood In The Water, that's one British fag in a box on my customs declaration."

"When life hands you lemons...at least it's not a fucking limey!"

[illipsis]

Y'all are tripping...Cane got this CLEARLY. I'm a fan of Sensa, but he was either uninspired for this or genuinely couldn't come up with anything more clever than calling Arc a wigger and old for three rounds. He did have the line of the battle with the sister punch, but Arcane just had the consistency. I agree that non-rhyming rebuttals, especially with the length that Cane tends to favour are non-effective and deter the momentum of the battle, but that aside I didn't find anything objectionable about his behaviour here.

[Flamazide]

I'd give all rounds to Arcane honestly. Sensa should have had better angles.

[misremembered]

I thought arcane took it after first watch for reasons mentioned
