The Max Out battle will open to feverish excitement. The fans were sent into a tizzy soon after the first announcement video was shared. On Reddit, most began comparing the rap battle styles the artists brought to the mix and how one was better than the other. There was a clear divide among the rap battle enthusiasts. While some said Cassidy was fierce, rest cheered for Hitman to win.
"I fucking love Cassidy's faceoffs. holy shit, him talking to Arsonal. "I'm eatin CHICKEN FINGERS. FRENCH FRIES," one commented, while another pointed out: "No battle is "perfect" for cass. He Will benefit from rbe being more forgiving and No crowd sure. But you can't watch Any battle of his and give him Any chance vs hitman anywhere," and added: "If he by some miracle still wins, there's No "told you so" to be had because No one can base that confidence in him on anything. He has shown No redeemable qualities as a battle rapper so far."
Another user passionately hate commented about Cassidy. In his rant he mentioned, he'd rather listen to "Big T eat extra wet, lemon pepper wings into a $1000 microphone. Than listen to Cassidy rap for 13 seconds." "Hitman is gonna do what Diz, Goodz, and Ars were supposed to and beat Cassidy so bad he won’t get booked again and will be totally booted from battle rap," a fan posted.
At this point, it's tough to guess who's winning but whatever the results are, expect a full-throttle fan fest at the arena and beyond when the rap giants take over the stage.
