Best battle of the series and best battle to feature these characters. This battle gets a 10/10 just for referencing Phineas and Ferb. Nah, but this is really good.
The editing is outstanding for what I'm used to this series along with the lyrcis. I love this. If this is how 2020 is going to be for Gridline Rap Battles, I'm hyped

Really enjoyed this one! Definitely your best battle yet. The visuals especially were a step up from the rest and it’s probably the best audio wise as well. Can’t say too much about the lyrics since my knowledge of these two goes as far as surface knowledge about the Wizard of Oz movie and watching the Greatest Showman once a while ago, but they seemed pretty solid from what I could capture. This series keeps improving with each battle and I’m excited to see what comes next, keep up the great work!

Wow, you all keep getting better with every new release!!

MATCHUP:
It’s unique, one I wouldn’t think of and I really like it. The connection is great and my favorite types of battles is a fictional character vs a real person. 10/10

COSTUMES AND CHARACTER PORTRAYAL:
I don’t know if this was intentionally or not, but I love how the characters costumes and voices portray their personalities. Like PT has a deep voice and black clothes as his life was really dark at moments and is a real person. While the Wizard’s costume is more colorful and voice is more uplifting as he is a fictional character.

With that observation out of the way, I thought the costumes and character portal was really good!! 9/10

BACKGROUND AND EDITING :
Loved the backgrounds and the editing was really good! Sometimes the movements seemed a bit to choppy and rushed at times but that was few and far between. I love love how the characters interact with the background!! 8/10

LYRICS AND BEAT;
Lyrics were really good, clever and you can tell the time that was put into them. Beat was fun and fitting 8/10

OVERALL:
This was a really fun battle!! You all keep getting better with every new battle so I’m excited to see what happens in the future!!
8.5/10

I’ve got a suggestion: Neo vs Scott Pilgrim. Heroes who are for older audiences and are in a simulation-like reality (with Scott Pilgrim getting points at the end of fights and the Matrix being a simulation.)

Editing definitely improved, however does need a bit more work, you see whenever the cuts move if feels stiff and and uncomfortable(at least for me) like theres something constricting their movement, and when the camera switches view there doesn't seem to be any blur present, I feel that if there's going to be movement it should be more loose, and please do use gaussian blur when doing close ups, it make the experience look more engaging for the viewers eyes, that's about all i have to say, awesomde vid yo.

1.Rap(Artist's like Eminem and Macklemore) vs Rock(Artist's like Skillet and Three Days Grace)
Connection:
Different Types of Music
2. Men In Black vs Blues Brothers
Connection:
People in suits
3. Tiger Claw(Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2012) vs Deathstroke(DC)
Connection:
Orange, Black and Blue badasses that fight with a type of blade (machete and katana sword) and guns that also have eye patches
That sounds cool, right?
