Alright, this is probably the best question yet, and I don't think my answer would do it much justice. But I'll answer it in both if the teams were to face off the opposition individually and work as a team.
First thing that I noticed was that each member on the opposing team is the antithesis to the original one. (i.e. Class-Freespeech, Amadeo-Embase, and to a lesser extent Stillmatic-Menzo).
Class vs FreeSpeechThis happened numerous times before and it always ends with Freespeech flaming Class and his music, but Class is usually nonchalant and never gives enough off a shit to really diss him back. I could see the appeal in not wanting to look mad, but sometimes I wished he would diss him back, that would at least shut any accusations of him being a bitch.
In terms of substantial debating, Class is sharper, and has a similar debating style that I do, in that he tends to pick apart the oppostion's post and call them out on fallacies. Freespeech isn't bad however, and has at times brought substantial points to arguments, he's a lot more aggressive, you could say.
60-40 (in favor of Class)
You vs KezI don't see you debate that much, however you've been getting into a lot of arguments lately, and surprise me from time to time. Something tells me that you're really good, but just lazy as fuck and can't be bothered going in back and forths.
Kez is the same, I don't see him debate that much, unless the topic really intrigues him, and rarely do I see him getting into lengthy discourses involving Hip Hop, I do see him make insightful posts, from time to time however.
Well fwiw, you beat him in that other thread regarding mac's/sla's banning.
65-35 (You)
MikeNUFC vs MeThis one's interesting actually, I'd love to see how this would pan out, but we rarely cross paths, unless the thread is really huge (Eminem vs IT).
Honestly, I haven't seen him debate that much, but he's a part of The Few True Villains, and he has to have some debating skill to be a part of that esoteric bunch. His style is probably reminiscint of a more laidback, less agressive Amadeo, I'm assuming.
He's pretty levelheaded and even though he's an Eminem supporter, using the word stan against him, just feels odd and out of place.
Umm I'll let you guys decide on this one.
Stillmatic vs MenzoThis I'd like to see, I consider them equals, only Stillmatic is a Nas representer and Menzo's an Eminem supporter.
In terms of substantial debate, well I used to always go in back and forths with Stillmatic, but he doesn't seem like the type to debate anymore. He commits a few fallacies here and there (but honestly who doesn't), but he does a pretty good job explaining and backing up his points. If it's a topic that he really knows than he might edge it out.
Menzo, I haven't seen him debate that much, but he seems like a developed MC, both are driven by emotions when debating, and tend to insult the other side incessantly if the opposition pisses them off, haven't really seen him go in a lengthy back and forth tbh.
50-50
Amadeo vs EminembaseThis is the big one, and I'm pretty sure the ones that will be at the forefront of their respective teams. Amadeo's one of the few posters that could hold his own against Embase's lengthy walls of text and not be intimidated, I could see this go either way tbh. He's like the perfect counter to Embase, other than Insider himself.
50-50
Now if we had to work together as a team than, it depends on what the subject is being discussed. Your side has much better chemistry other than Stillmatic-Amadeo, and recently Stillmatic-Class. Me, I'm very aloof and like to do things by myself, but if it's something regarding Eminem than I KNOW I'm not going to get along with anyone on my side.
Again pretty interesting concept, but where's Maybe/Block/Xray/mcZu?
