LC VS RELAPSE

Battle Result

LOTA Result

Clash Summary

LC and RELAPSE opened a Champions League event at Croydon Boxpark as two newcomers to the platform. The format used only in-building voting, with the result due to close at midnight and be announced later on PenGame's socials. RELAPSE won the coin toss and chose to go first. The audio release ends before any official tally appears.

RELAPSE's first attacked LC through hygiene, relationships, village life, drug use and instability. He used a frozen-pitch image to say LC would try to get the match called off, then moved through breath, trainers, living with strangers and club behaviour. The round established a clear picture of LC as dirty, isolated and unreliable, but much of the writing was broad character insult rather than battle-specific research.

LC answered by making RELAPSE's name and history the centre of the round. He opened with former addict, crack and relapse wordplay, then moved into size, darkness and obstruction, four-wheel-drive imagery and comparisons with Butterbean. The strongest section challenged why LC had been given this matchup instead of a bigger icon, then used doctor/Doctor Dolittle, cocaine, chokehold and Gzone references. LC's directness, name flips and crowd control gave him the first.

RELAPSE's second was more controlled. He attacked LC's alcohol and ketamine use, smell, age, mother, partner and mental health, while using points and money-in-a-pot language to connect the verse to the Champions League. A Jake Paul/Disney comparison and a long twist-and-flip cadence closed the round. It was a cleaner performance than his opener, but the angles still remained mostly generic.

LC's second brought more opponent history and layered references. He questioned a past incident involving Sennifer Khan, attacked RELAPSE for spending ten years without progress, and built long cocaine, avalanche and police/cops sequences. He used RELAPSE's name backwards as 'three laps', moved into MRI and bench-press imagery, then finished with Power characters Tariq St Patrick and Angela Valdes. Some transcription is rough, but the round is consistently tailored and takes the second.

RELAPSE's third was his strongest and most sustained round. He kept returning to LC's appearance, housing, relationships, drugs and weight while using Nottingham Forest, socks and sockets, Adam and Eve, rubbish removal, Manchester United, Sandhu's shop and cleaning imagery. The verse had better forward motion than his first two and gave him his closest round of the battle.

LC closed by returning to the RELAPSE identity and drug theme. Bad habits, coke, crack, snow, a frozen brain and ghost imagery created a long substance sequence. He then moved through Midas, solo/no-backup claims, a coffin-size attack, tiger and Carole Baskin references and a final death/grave section. The round also contains offensive religious, ethnic and disability material that the archive contextualises without endorsing. On writing and opponent specificity, LC edges the third as well.

No official audience result is preserved in the upload. LOTA scores LC 3-0: LC is more direct, more tailored and more memorable across the battle. RELAPSE's third is competitive, but LC's sustained name-and-drug framing gives him the cleaner overall round.

Performance Analysis

LC

LC wins the LOTA review 3-0 through opponent-specific writing and strong crowd control. He repeatedly turns RELAPSE's name, reported history and substance imagery into structured attacks rather than relying only on generic insults. The third is closest, but LC still has the more memorable connected material.

Lyrical Themes: Relapse, addiction and cocaine; weight and physical obstruction; Doctor Dolittle and chokeholds; battle history and lack of progress; police/cops; MRI and bench press; Power, Midas, Carole Baskin and burial imagery.

RELAPSE

RELAPSE improves across the battle and delivers his best work in the third. His rounds have consistent flow and a clear character picture of LC, but the material is less tailored and often returns to the same hygiene, sexuality, housing and drug insults without developing one decisive angle.

Lyrical Themes: Hygiene and smell; village and farm life; relationships; alcohol and ketamine; age and stepfather jokes; weight, homelessness and drug use; Nottingham Forest, Adam and Eve, Manchester United and cleaning.

Key Technical Highlights

LC

Name-based framing

LC establishes relapse and addiction as the battle's central language from his first line and returns to it in the final.

Opponent-specific second

His middle round contains the deepest research, using past incidents, career length, RELAPSE's name and several personal references.

Crowd command

LC repeatedly controls reloads and room participation, giving the audio a clear sense of where the largest reactions occur.

RELAPSE

Consistent cadence

RELAPSE maintains a steady rhythmic delivery across all three rounds, even when individual punches are less specific.

Tournament language

Points, money in a pot and climbing above connect parts of his writing to the Champions League setting.

Strongest final round

His third increases the density of references and develops longer chains through football, creation, rubbish and cleaning imagery.

Indexed Bars & Breakdown

LC

Round 1 — Relapse Name Flip

"You're a former cat, come back for a crack — now I'm gassed that you've relapsed."

LC opens by turning RELAPSE's stage name into a return to crack use, establishing the addiction theme immediately.

Round 1 — Blocking the View

"Tell him it's still darkness, 'cause I like how you're blocking the view."

A size attack that treats RELAPSE's body as the object preventing light or sight from reaching the room.

Round 1 — Four-wheel Drive

"You can pick your death, what method you choose. I'll bury you alive — four-wheel drive, get five."

The transcript is compressed, but four-wheel drive supplies the vehicle language before the count escalates beyond four.

Round 1 — Butterbean

"Crowd, ain't this a mockery? I'm clashing Butterbean. I wanted to clash your icon, Socrates, but you gave me this monstrosity."

Butterbean is a heavyweight boxer used for the visual comparison, while Socrates represents the higher-status opponent LC says he wanted.

Round 1 — Doctor Dolittle

"Next time give me someone suitable. You ain't a doctor — you just do little."

Doctor Dolittle becomes 'doctor, do little', dismissing RELAPSE as someone who contributes very little.

Round 1 — Chokehold

"He's in love with the cocaine — I'm like Cain Velasquez when I put him in a chokehold."

The drug angle moves into former UFC champion Cain Velasquez, making the chokehold a combat-sport image.

Round 2 — Career Length

"Ten years and he ain't done piss."

LC uses RELAPSE's time in the scene as evidence that longevity has not produced meaningful progress.

Round 2 — Avalanche

"Don't know who you think you're better than. Snow-like avalanche."

Snow continues the cocaine language while avalanche increases the scale and force of the image.

Round 2 — Cops

"You've got the same name as the cops — you'll see them when cops run down your block."

LC flips RELAPSE's real name, Jake, toward 'jakes', UK slang for police.

Round 2 — MRI

"If he's getting me vexed, it's like an MRI scan — I've got to snap to his head."

The medical scan supplies an image of the head while snap turns observation into physical damage.

Round 2 — Bench Press

"He's got weight both sides, but he doesn't bench."

A body-weight insult framed through a barbell, where weight sits on both sides even though RELAPSE is not training.

Round 2 — Power

"When you die and come back as a ghost, put one in your chest like Tariq St Patrick."

Ghost and Tariq St Patrick reference Power, where the family relationship makes the chest-shot image part of the show's story.

Round 3 — Bad Habits

"RELAPSE, you've got some bad habits — little coke-line-sniffing crack addict."

The final returns directly to the stage-name theme and states the addiction angle without disguise.

Round 3 — Snow and Ghost

"Too much coke, too much snow coming up your nose. I'm surprised your brain hasn't froze — too much white, now you look like a ghost."

Coke becomes snow, snow becomes freezing, and white becomes a ghost in a connected substance-and-temperature scheme.

Round 3 — Midas

"Touch mine, now it's going gold like Midas."

King Midas turned everything he touched to gold; LC uses the myth as a warning about touching what belongs to him.

Round 3 — Carole Baskin

"You ain't match fit, been fed to the tigers — do him like Carole Baskin."

A Tiger King reference that turns the opponent's size and lack of fitness into an imagined feeding.

RELAPSE

Round 1 — Frozen Pitch

"He's gonna try and get this match called off like it's a frozen pitch."

The battle becomes a football match abandoned because the pitch is frozen, suggesting LC wants to escape the fixture.

Round 1 — Brush Past

"Let me brush right past. In a club, you pull up and touch guys' backs."

Brush and touch connect the transition, although the punch relies more on character insult than layered wordplay.

Round 1 — Laid Out

"If he ever has a fight in his life, then he gets laid out flat just like slaps."

Laid out flat describes both a defeated person and the open hand used for a slap.

Round 2 — Points

"Watch how I put him in a box. I'm collecting points — that's money in a pot."

Boxing, tournament points and the prize pot bring the attack directly into the Champions League format.

Round 2 — Stepdad

"I'm old enough to be your stepdad — go to your mum's when I need a sex act."

An age comparison that turns RELAPSE's seniority into a deliberately disrespectful family angle.

Round 2 — Jake Paul

"I'm battling a guy that looks like Jake Paul did when doing up Disney."

A visual comparison to Jake Paul's younger Disney era, presenting LC as immature and manufactured.

Round 2 — Twist and Flip

"All of the mental-health courses are not fixing him. The way that he lives is skint — I'm ripping him apart with the way that I twist and flip."

A cadence-focused closer that moves from failed intervention into poverty and physical damage.

Round 3 — Nottingham Forest

"You'll get buried in Nottingham Forest."

Forest works as both the football club and a literal wooded burial location.

Round 3 — Socket

"You're not fitting in, like putting a sock in a socket."

The near-sound of sock/socket produces an image of something clearly placed where it does not belong.

Round 3 — Adam and Eve

"I don't know him from Adam and Eve — he got spawned by Axe on stream."

Adam and Eve introduce creation, while spawned shifts the idea into livestream and gaming language.

Round 3 — Clean-up

"Take out the trash like my flat got cleaned."

LC becomes rubbish removed during a domestic clean, continuing RELAPSE's dirt and hygiene framing.

Round 3 — Sandhu's Shop

"I'm a boss like Sandhu's shop."

A local-shop ownership image used as a compact claim of authority.

Round 3 — Brand New Dog

"Get put in your place like a brand new dog."

A new dog being trained and assigned its place becomes an image of forcing LC into submission.

Clash Highlights

  • LC opens immediately on RELAPSE's name and sustains the addiction framework across all three rounds.
  • The Doctor Dolittle and Cain Velasquez lines give LC two clear, accessible first-round punches.
  • RELAPSE's points/money-pot bar is the cleanest direct use of the Champions League format.
  • The cocaine/snow/frozen/ghost chain is LC's strongest connected final-round sequence.
  • LC's first is reloaded multiple times as the room reacts and the beat is reset.
  • LC turns the end of round one into a Gzone call-and-response, briefly shifting the room from individual battle to platform rivalry.
  • The supplied source is an audio release, so visual crowd and prop context cannot be independently assessed.
  • LC's final contains ethnic, religious, homophobic and disability-based material that is documented as part of the performance, not endorsed by the archive.
  • LC ends by sarcastically telling everybody to vote RELAPSE if they have time.
  • The host says the official result will be announced on social media after voting closes at midnight; that tally is absent from the upload.

Post-Battle Context

The in-building vote remained open until midnight, with PenGame promising to announce the winner later on social media. No official tally is preserved in the audio, and the original archive entry listed the winner as unknown.

Judgement Summary

LOTA Result: LC wins 3-0

LOTA round split: LC takes all three rounds. He wins the first through the immediate RELAPSE name flip, Doctor Dolittle and stronger room control; the second through deeper opponent history and the cops/MRI/Power writing; and the third through the sustained cocaine, snow, ghost and Carole Baskin material. RELAPSE improves and makes round three competitive, but his angles remain broader and less tailored. No official vote is preserved, so this is explicitly a LOTA result rather than an official PenGame decision.
