Robin Hood vs. Guy Fawkes - Rap Battle! - ft. The Stupendium & Littleflecks

[@ethangonzalez8904]

Somehow, rapping while being tortured is more badass than the ERB version where Guy actually blew up the barrels

[@Kronosfobi]

That version was, like many ERB raps, focused on comedy. They still were punching but also were silly. This version took himself seriously to begin with.

[@emilchristophersen3354]

@@Kronosfobi Wouldn't say ERB raps are focused on comedy, but they are definitely more lighthearted

[@sourwitch2340]

@@emilchristophersen3354 I do think comedy is the main point of pretty much every directorial decision in ERB. That, and looking cool. There's instances where other things drive them, such as in T. Jefferson vs F. Douglas where they also cared about making sure the message was clear and taking black trauma seriously, but those tend to be exceptions. I mean, just take MLK vs Ghandi for comparison, which had the nice closing statement, but otherwise avoids really discussing their actual politics in the slightest. "say you appreciate what he did, reference your most riveting speech, tell him he stinks" is not a way to set up a line meant to be taken seriously.

[@waynemidnight7454]

Can we just talk about that last line for a second? Not only was the obvious V for Vendetta reference, but in the days of Robin Hood, archers would taunt enemies by making a V with their fingers, as that what was used to draw their bows. Sort of like saying, "Come get me, I only need 2 fingers to shoot you down" When archers were captured by enemies, they'd torture them by threatening to cut off their 2 fingers that they shot their bows with, so they couldn't fire any more shots at them. There's so many layers to just this 1 line. I can't even begin to imagine how many layered lines are in this battle alone, and that's awesome!

[@FreshyKanal]

this is a very rewarding comment

[@gabrielcabral698]

This comment should be way higher

[@TheRawkmonster]

Not only was that a diss yes but the V with the two finger is also their way in Europe (I think) as a sign meaning fuck you like how we as Americans use the middle finger. So yeah guy fawks won just from that bar alone. Respect to Robin Hood with the heat but yeah lower your bow son.

[@MrVimtomelon]

@@TheRawkmonster Actually the middle finger is used in europe aswell, the V means something else

Haven't seen anybody mention this yet, but the biggest reason I think Guy absolutely crushed this battle is that... he had literally everyone else against him. He had not only Robin Hood dissing him, but the Merry Men AND King James. He was the only one in his corner, and he still EVISCERATED everyone lyrically WHILE BEING TORTURED. If that doesn't give Guy the win, IDK what does.

Fuck, this is good. I’d have to rewatch each of your battles but this is a good chance that this is your best live action battle if not best battle you ever made. Robin Hood went so hard but the fact that Fawkes dissed while getting tortured and hanged is pretty hardcore. I’d say this is ERB good but considering their Fawks battle was underwhelming, I think saying your surpassed them is more accurate.

[@graven2508]

First off, this whole rap battle was so beautifully done and I think Guy Fawkes crushed this battle because not only he calls out the inconsistencies of Robin Hood’s “heroism” but he even goes so far to show his examples of heroism and doing what is right while being tortured. This rap battle is ART.

[@udozocklein6023]

you know, the robin hood story comes from a time when the british crown didn't pay their soldiers for over 2 years even though they have beaten back the vikings. deserting his army and forming a band of plunderers is not heroic in itself but steaing from the rich and giving money to poor people just because he can is kinda lit xD hating the rich, sure, except for the ones that actually pay you for the job

Seeing Stupendium play Guy Fawkes was really cool, he deserves some recognition for that. As for my suggestions for battles Giratina (Pokémon) vs Rob (The Amazing World Of Gumball) they both come from such similar worlds (the distortion world and the void) so seeing them would be really cool Agent 47 (Hitman) vs Ayano Aishi (Yandere Simulator) I think this match up works well because they both originated from games that have very alike gameplay, where you play through a map trying to kill someone in various ways.

[@FlowerHaze]

Haven't seen anybody take the "If I can't fight a fire with fire, I'll fight a fox with Fawkes" line into further detail, so let me (after six watches in a row) break down what I found so far: 1. "Don't fight fire with fire" is a common saying that refers to how fighting fire with fire will only make said fire grow 2. "Fighting a fox with Fawkes" is an obvious nod to the Disney imagining of Robin Hood, where Robin is depicted as a fox, and the line uses a flip on the word fox with Guy Fawkes' last name 3. Both fire and fox being back to back could be both a nod to the internet browser Firefox (which would be hilarious if true) and also a reference to a similar fox to Disney's Robin Hood, that being Fox McCloud from Star Fox, who has a move in the Smash Brothers franchise that I believe is actually called "Fire Fox" The depth that the lines in these battles have is truly incredible, and there's probably even more to this line that I haven't gotten yet

The fact that you had so many hype-men to back you up is unbelievable, Fawkes never stood a chance. 🤣

[@gramps3351]

Major props to Stupes here! 2:31 to 2:41 was absolutely unreal! this is one of the few like consistently good channels i've come across on KZbin, like the content you put out just ups in quality every time its fucking killer!

[@StarManSean]

Yoo, this was an epic rap battle indeed! Loved seeing Shwabadi, Breeton, Dan Bull, Afro, BassedOlaf and The Stupendium on this too!

[@ChaoticRapBattles]

This one is definitely my new favorite, I keep finding myself coming back to it.

[@makeminemovies]

Although I enjoy ERB, I’m convinced that 0:30 - 1:10 is superior to anything they’ve put out. Absolutely faultless writing, rapping and backing track.

[@NFFE]

HOLY SHIT THIS! WOW! This is definately my new obession for the next month !! WAY TO GO EVERYONE THIS WAS SO FIRE!!!

[@tyleraurigema1209]

"If I can't fight a fire with fire, I'll fight a Fox with Fawkes" and "Are you curtsying burglars quite done with referring To how I burnt and got turned into fine dust? Wait until you learn the merk that you're serving under you heard Who could never be hurt or murdered by none got fucking murdered by nuns" gotta be the hardest lines to come from this channel

[@OnyxKingYT]

I was spitting my drink when I saw the kind that executing Stupdenium was Dan Bull. 😆

[@TheApoke]

Really loving all these 3d backgrounds and costumes! The beat and rapping was also top notch

[@sydssolanumsamsys]

i love that when Robin gets dissed, he looks shocked(1:40) but when Guy gets roasted he rolls right over it (2:18)

[@CBTheCandid]

Also (0:49), Guy is kinda just like: "Come on, give me more" (Even though what Robin said there reads more like a playful jab instead of a full on roast)

[@skykyosuke7628]

This was absolutely incredible. Definitely going to be one of my top 3 battles of the year, if not my absolute favorite. Everything here is insane and I love it!

[@jonnyd_vids]

Why did that go so unnecessarily hard 🤣 Fricken awesome

[@thedoninator5935]

I lowkey love the line "I've got an affinity for artillery" lol

[@tyholland3101]

Damn. That was so much more than I expected. Always love seeing stupendium in these rap battle projects.

[@MrCatface]

Simply incredible! Great job to everyone who worked on this!

[@NPOCrushader]

Holy smokes that was fire from start to finish!! These battles just keep on evolving and becoming better and better every time, which is impressive seeing as they already were at a pretty high level

[@ClayHutchens]

This is officially 10x better than the Guy Fawkes erb battle, and that was a pretty good battle

[@umbrella3235]

Now that's what I call a stacked cast. You really outdid yourself with this one Freshy!

[@DrPotatoSkins]

Absolutely killed it as always, Freshy is lowkey the GOAT when it comes to these rap battles. I love the little detail of Guy Fawkes jumping off the stage at the end of the battle, the best nod to his famous dive. Meanwhile I'm still suggesting Arceus vs. Amaterasu, which hopefully will happen one day.

[@AdamTheMango105]

And here I fought he could never top Dice vs Boogie Hood’s first verse was brutal, while his second was more flow based But holy shit Fawkes 2nd verse was so phenomenal in the visual department and somehow topped the flow of Hood’s 2nd verse Though Hood’s 1st verse probably got him the win cause he DID NOT hold back (although it was close) Excellent battle, easily top 5

[@wonderland9601]

Guy fawkes completely one shot robin hood

[@cbv2353]

Got to give it to Fawkes, that second verse had me jumping

[@MrYellow12]

What kind of present doesn't come with a bow?

[@fedoratheexplorar2143]

That's awesome

[@FicaHewet]

the most dashing assassin

[@prestonrush8014]

1:14 If that line didn't strike hard to Robin Hood, I don't know what will. 😂

[@Eddiefrb]

Superb

[@milgraududz]

My god, i'm simply stunned by the quality of this battle. I already expected this to be something epic, but NOT THAT EPIC. So many talented people involved in an even more amazing project, so the most I can do is a V for Very epic battle 🧨✌️💥 Excellent work y'all 👏👏👏
