Imagine Dlow vs River 🔥

[@flowride4184]

Didn't want to clarify on the no touching rule? It's pretty ambivalent stuff obviously, if even the judges don't know what to do about it despite it being a rule. Afterwards River said on social media that Abo Ice was toxic here, but then said Ice apologised to him so now they're cool... I remember Footbox G saying battle tactics are cool as long as they are respectful... but who gets to decide what constitutes that and what does not? This is obviously slippery stuff.

[@alimezel5784]

Battling all up in your face being obnoxious stuff is fine just no physical contact

[@abhisheknair8437]

It's not as slippery slope as you think. If two friends battle and they touch each other, (sometimes accidentally like Footboxg's punch against River) then it won't be noted much. However, when somebody is very clearly uncomfortable, makes the sign to give him space, and still the opponent touches him, that should be a sign that it's something wrong that's happening.

[@YnEoS10]

Any kind of touching is clearly out of bounds because it can risk messing with your opponents performance. If they know each other well and clearly don’t mind it can be overlooked sometimes, but it’s always better not to.

[@Largetech2009]

One thing I don’t enjoy about rivers battles is that when his opponent is battling him he just faces forward ignoring his opponent, it could be a battle tactic but I find it ignorant ignoring your opponent. He seems to expect the opponent to face him but doesn’t give the same courtesy back. Then when the opponent tries to get him to look it’s the give me space vibe. Just something I don’t enjoy from Rivers side. I understand the no touching but its odd the situation.

The way you have replied to my comment makes it seem like he punched him in the nut sack🤣 I was also referring to the countering and hand gestures during the battle, i would have preferred it if there was no contact, but you cant discredit an entire battle because of one mistake, dlow points to this in the video. So thanks for turning a light hearted comment into an absolute downer, your a credit to the beatbox community bro keep up the hard work

[@jonass_-yd3ww]

@@ojac7233 To say it in your words: The way you have replied to my comment makes it seem like I killed your family because of your comment😂 To say it in my words: Oh, please. Stop crying, snowflake. What you specified in your answer and what you wrote in your initial comment are 2 complete different things. Even the hand gestures are stupid. Like, why being so insecure, that you try to confuse the opponent with some nonsense movement? It's not like it makes any sense. And also, if you appreciate the battle for what it is, that you appreciate everything. And if you don't like, that people are justified with having a problem with that, then think next time *before* you comment. Sounds better than complain at the person, who was critizing you, right? So, thanks for trying too gaslight me. Your comment wasn't light hearted, so stop telling yourself that. Just to give you a little intuition, why your comment isn't okay: What would you say to a person, claiming that the german history is finally some good old history again? Would be at least weird to say that, right? And before you start crying again: No, I'm not comparing Abo's actions here with WW2. I'm just making clear, that by claiming, something problematic has some good energy, you cannot just say afterwards, that you didn't mean the problematic part. That's a lame excuse and is typical snowflake behaviour

[@Nadia257]

River’s 2nd was mega 🔥🔥

[@pizzapie7]

I think for the touching rule, they should have a point deducted from the battling category. Since touching your opponent does have to do with the battling aspect of beatboxing and nothing else really. I think people won’t care too much about the rule, if there are no consequences for breaking it. Just my opinion on that (:

[@jonass_-yd3ww]

People not only do not care. Read the comments here. They appreciate it. Which is disgusting on so many layers. Also, touching your opponent has nothing to do with a *beatbox* battle. What the fvck? Maybe a reminder, cause you seem to need it: No means no! Everything else is harrassement!

[@show-uchannel]

Abo Ice was more aggressive and he definitely had cool beats but his antics ended speaking more than his music tbh. If you strip back antics (which I don't think counts for points???) and purely based on music, River's skills did the talking for him. More variety, skill, and better execution. Not to say Ice wasn't original at all, because it's still a close battle but it becomes clearer when you realize the tool box he has vs River. Ice in terms of structure and style was like 2021 Inertia. Very unique sound, very unique beats, but comes short in musicality. Music school graduates might understand this but it's like watching a less technical, but more musically expressive musician go up against an opponent with amazing and fast technique but they play technical stuff like Flight of the Bumblebee.

[@gman248]

I wonder why is everyone so soft nowadays? It is a battle, a little tap on the shoulder is going to make you so triggered? If you choose to turn away from your opponent in a battle, are you then surprised the opponent is going to want you back in the battle? If you face them, they wont have to touch you to get your attention. It is not a showcase. I understand it is a rule, but dang, there is nothing toxic about it... Same thing happened with Colaps and Zekka last time. This is what I miss in these battles lately, the engagement of the battle, the "fight" that is going on there, the dialogue between the beatboxers, the constant back and forth. After all, it is a BATTLE not a talent show, and the battle aspects are nothing personal, you can see Abo going for the hug right away after they are done.

9:45 LOL

[@randguy696]

AboIce has an energetic nature. Abo wanted to beatbox and have fun in his round. but River was cold towards Abo as if he was in a fight battle. River acted as if Abo wasn't there. River seemed to isolate himself from the battle while Abo was beatboxing. so Abo wanted to pull River back into the battle and soften the mood. so he made a little touch. River, overreacted to this touch. River showed the same cold attitude towards Momimaru. Momimaru reacted to River with a beat during the 2nd round. I also remember Zekka's touch to Colaps in gbb21. Zekka had overstepped his bounds. But in gbb23, when River was cold to most of the contestants like that, the other contestants couldn't hide their reactions. so I found Abo's touch normal. After all, beatboxing is an art for friendship and fun. It's sad to see this kind of cold behavior. I'm actually a big River fan. When I was watching Gbb23 live on air, when this encounter came up, I wondered if they had problems before. but now that I reevaluate, I think River was unfair to Abo.

[@cha_zen]

That was fair points and if you talk about that i can understand about 'touching' part. If you remember when tomaz battling codfish, coldfish gave a cold attitude to tomaz, and tomaz here doing more smart approach so he said "it's battle so look at me" it definitely get the battle point that u didn't need to do such touchy approach (in my opinion). One more thing i want to talk about is when mr androide vs ice.. ice attitude with walk away when his round is over is kinda too much. And ice doing it again this time (if this is battle strategy it's too repetitive). And yes all about battle strategy on the stage, sometimes you will feel it's a little too much, that's all concluded my opinion about this battle.

Imo the touching was justified as River was just standing in the front middle of the podium limiting Ice's movement and potential communication with the crowd. This is a smart move but this part of the stage should be from the one whose turn it is, thus River complaining about Ice slightly pushing and touching while obstructing himself and, as visible in the transition from Ice to River, not moving an Inch is unjustified imo
