P24 = Avocado da gawd!

Way too many had DNA on their top10s, this is crazy. I try not to watch a lot of DNA battles cause he is trash but he got bodied by Illmac and DBD. If you get bodied twice in the same year you are not eligible for a top10 list foh.

But some moron actually put Mook at nr1? You are obviously completly fucking clueless if you put someone who hasn't battled in 2015 on your list for best battler of 2015.

You're crazy biased to say Dan bodied him.

DNA has had a Damn good year

i voiced my opinion. i think i was pretty impartial. i'm just trippin off mook being #1 on someones list & he didn't even battle. That panelist needs to be reconsidered for next year lmao..

[mike rigs]

multiple people picked Mook as battler of the year and he didnt even battle????

[Wolfpac187]

I'm guessing Mickey Factz voted Mook as #1

Who was left off that should've been included, and who was included that should've been left off iyo?

At the end of the day, I think they got the most relevant people available, and if a lot of them happen to be on the east coast, then that's just how it goes. You can't win for losing.

And I don't think that all the panelists are all that biased, but some very clearly are, and you can tell by how far out there and unreasonable their choices were.

Have they said who the panelists were? Why don't they just release that info? Don't have to match the names to the lists, but you can't give Avo and Eurgh 2 of 30 votes and say it's not bias.

I'm no so much directly criticising the method as the end result, which means there has been a flaw in the method somewhere. There is no way on earth that Pass wasn't in the top ten battlers this year. I think he should be #1. So they have either picked a bunch of people with a huge URL bias, or they have picked a lot of people with a slight URL bias.

Dude says most of who the panelist were in the last 2 mins or so of the video in the OP. To be completely fair, he said there were upwards of 30 participants, but he only mentioned less than 30 names. Take that for what it's worth. Idk who voted for what.

[SicariiDC]

I liked seeing the actual panelists choices

The bol @efarrell got a roy vote, that's what's up

[Neanderthol]

some good lists on here tbh
I would say
1. Chilla (did too much-Diz,Math,Con, Danny, Pass, Prep, Bulletz, dialect, the sight unseeen Th3 Saga battle, win or lose hes done too much)
2. Danja (Ws over Lottta,Verb,KG,Bmagic,DAy,Bedaffi, and in the quiet room,great battles with Danny & Ness Lee)
3. Tay Roc (did too much main event work to deny regardless of actual battle quality)
4. Bigg K (BOTY vs ILL Will, beat Ars & full effect, great wins vs Caustic & Math)
5, DAnny (bodied Rex, Heartless & Xcel, beat Chilla,Cain Marko and Diesel, great battles with Danja, and Cali Smoov)
6. Kshine (body of the Year vs Verb, did Dose almost as bad, great showing vs Dan, lackluster vs Wavy & Will but went crazy on the 2x2s)
7. Hollow (destroyed Clips, had incredible performance vs Pat Stay)
8. Magic (seemingly on a downswing but still great battles wit Ty Law and chef Trez, beat Mack Myron,Kg,and grandaddy Purp even if he didnt, took a L to Danja and hearing he did bad vs Brixx and lost to Bill but these remain to be seen)
9. Big T (good battle with Dizaster, great performances vs Caustic and Unan, took a L to Rone in big fashion but had prolly performance of the year vs Suge[def round OTY])
10. Suge (crazy battles wit Saga and TTop,killed oops and theory truth, few Ls tho to Reepah Rell, Tech and T but still great year)

11. Pass
12. Eness
13. DNA
14. Diz
15. rONE

[TheSuburbCeleb]

My list only had one "URL" battler in the top 5...

Hollow and Lux weren't on my list (to few battles)
Clips wasn't either (to many half ass battles)

[SBOfficial]

The choices are pure ASS. The panel is Official... How odd.

I'm compiling my own for 2016 now.

It's 2016, there's no such thing as an "official" or "definitive" top 10 list anymore. No-one watches every battler anymore, so no-one's an expert anymore, so literally every top 10 list is gonna be biased, uninformed, including mine.

I would've put Pass, Rone, Thesaurus, Fresco etc in my top 10, BUT the committee who designed this list probably didn't even watch their battles, and I don't blame them. So I can't be furious they've been omitted. Like I would never include Danja Zone or Suge, but that's only because I don't watch their battles.

I've unfortunately seen enough of K-Shine, Clips and DNA to judge them, and they've got there on views alone not on merit.

Hollow, Bigg K, Lux, Chilla were all underwhelming by their standards, they've each regressed since 2014.

The only one I might've included in my top 10 from TWR's list is Tay Roc.

Anyone who interprets these highly subjective rankings, including mine, as law is a moron.
