This was probably one of the closer battles in my eyes.

Vote: Lil Demon

Kao, what you didn't have in variety and difficulty of moves, you made up with your musicality and control. Watching your rounds over and over, it's hard to judge, because along with your showcase round, I'm just seeing a LOT of the same techs and if I hadn't analyzed the rounds the way I did, it was almost like watching the same round 3 times. Regardless, I did spot what was new about your rounds. The freeze in the first round was probably the most obvious, but like Art mentioned in another battle, direction matters and facing the exact opposite way of the camera is not good. Overall, you controlled the battle as far as musicality, control, and a good sense in foundation goes.

Lil Demon, you lacked a lot of foundation and control. You were all over the place, and the beats you hit seemed mad forced, minus the moments in your second round. However, you stayed aggressive and fresh round to round. Your moves were on another level entirely compared to Kao. Your second round really edged it out for you. Good job with understanding what you had to make up for from a weak first round.

In the end, Lil Demon won on account of his attitude, understanding of where he stood in the battle, and staying fresh. Minus the jumpy sporadic toprock, Lil Demon rarely repeated. Plus, that round 2 was fire, at least in this battle.

Lil Demon gets my vote

Kao, you had good musicality and some good ideas but it all seemed very...repetitive? Also there was little variety in your moves. But your dancing was good and that was your strong point.

Lil Demon, despite being pretty sloppy and all over the place as LOBZ has said, your level of moves surpasses kao by a long shot. also you had a strong battle mentality and showed how well you knew that 2nd round song.
