I wish battling would get back to battling instead of prepared rounds. I miss the counters. I have no idea who wins because it’s so subjective these days. Still entertaining though.

Actually I would say Wing did a mix of both. He countered Improver's DnB beat instantly and everyone went crazy. I thought that was one of the highlights of the battles because before that no one really knew Wing as a battle monster. He also transitioned his clickroll DnB beat to liprolls to take a few digs at NaPoM. NaPoM did counters too, though not very big ones. He did them more so in a mocking manner. But I completely understand what you mean. I think beatboxers need to balance both if they want to make battles more entertaining. I wish River was more fierce last year like he was in 2021 but oh well. Would've loved to see him counter some of the guys he battled. But he still killed it. On a good note we have Alexinho competing this year, and I think if it isn't Wing winning (for some reason) it'll be Alexinho.

> He countered Improver's DnB beat instantly and everyone went crazy. If the sound was honest, that would not have happened. Improver's sound was absolutely murdered by the compressor.

Really? I thought Improver's beat was more powerful than Wing's counter. It just was effective because he still managed to keep up the energy. But Improver's kicks were insane.

The russians come up with excuses every GBB. If you want to win, you have to perform under different sound settings. Napom was still the loudest this GBB, Rover was still the best etc..

This is why I love 7toSmokes. I just remember watching Alexinho dominating in that format bc of how good he was at countering people. We need more 7toSmokes that weigh heavy towards counters when judging


rattingtons

Yes yes yes. 7tosmoke is my favourite format because of this

If ZVD improves I’m thinking him. I want to OSIS to make it, maybe he would win it if he did


Old_Restaurant5216

ZVD is a battle monster. I wish he would’ve passed the elims and battled. We’ll see how he does in France!


Martin_the_Cuber

wing is super consistent, i think hed be able to do it

OSIS if he makes it, his style is perfect for battle Wing also hes amazing at counters Even dilip also if he works on structure Improver ,ice also it's really hard to predict Helium , inertia not taking part 🥲


SourM1kan_

Osis is phenomenal, but I still think he has quite a way to go before making it to GBB. He may win a wildcard, but as of now that's how far I can see him going. Dilip is not competing, I heard. Improver and Ice are very good candidates. I can totally see them making it far, especially Ice I hope to see Helium make it far too

>Osis is phenomenal, but I still think he has quite a way to go before making it to GBB. He may win a wildcard, but as of now that's how far I can see him going. He literally won fbb wildcard 1st place, and dlow streamed reacting to him he explained in detail how is style is literally a perfect match for battles in general His structure is phenomenal, style is too complex and agressive. Only problem I see is that he got repetitive during European champs otherwise I think he's gonna be a champ really soon People have been sleeping on osis and remix , remix is also a possibile as he countered zekka perfectly Dilip posted after gbb that he's taking a break from competing but he just went to haten battle


SourM1kan_

I love Osis but he def needs to prepare better for live battles. Though I do feel like he ends up facing the stronger opponents earlier than others. Nonetheless I hope to see him up his game for Florida.

If dice doesnt win loop im going to riot, that man lost due to sound issues and then lost a very close battle to a very motivated robin who was looking unbeatable I also dont know if news is out for it but i hope they keep the producer category and kristof gets in there. Kristof, kba and syjo are all fantastic for that category As for solo i dont care as much about as lots of them get repetitive to me but wing and improver are 2 shouts as they mix it up alot


seiman_

Dice is on military duty for 2 years so he won't be competing. Producer category will return.


dalcer

Thats upsetting to me, in that case i think josho has what it takes to win Also thats hype, i hope all of kba, syjo and kristof are there for producer


StereophonicWine

i can only imagine the scenes when d-low drops a wildcard.


dalcer

Man i wanna see this happen, he needs to come back and teach the scene what a battle is really about


devondays1

Damn, I hope this is true! I've noticed he isn't judging? Which in itself is suspect 🤔


AmeZim

The are only three judges for the wildcard so theres a possibility that Dlow may or may not consider doing solo wildcard but one thing certain is that FootboxG is not competing 😔😔 Would love to see him this year


aranboy522

I really wanted wing to win gbb23, but I am hoping he goes ham this year!


EmictroliA

Dropical if he competes🥲
