@MrUKFORLIFE Rainen took it for me too, but I got:

1. Rainen

2. Rainen

3.Rainen

4.ATN

5.ATN (Rainen's headpin and all a mall crowd pleaser, but other than that, there wasnt much to the set.)

I've been checking into ATN's stuff this past year, and the kid's really dope. He'll be doing 1v1 comps on a big scale in the near future for sure. I know it's American pride, but Im glad a new gen of dope bboys have been catching international reps like DOMkey and Toyz.

Rainen > ATN here, IMO.

Rd. 1 Tie

Rd. 2 Rainen

Rd. 3 Rainen

Rd. 4 ATN

Rd. 5 Rainen

This is all just my opinion.

[itskhaialright]

any idea what ATN shoes he is using?

I am no B-boy expert, but here are my 2 cents:

R1 = ATN

R2 = Rainen

R3 = Rainen

R4 = ATN

R5 = ATN/Possible tie

Overall view: ATN definitely has cleaner moves. Rainen is always so sloppy. But then again, Rainen has better power moves and even adds style to his dancing, so that influences a lot for the crowd; the reason why the 5th round is a possible tie is because Rainen's headspin was dope, but mostly a crowd pleaser. Idk, it's hard to say who really won. They're both just so good.

@Mo0m0oSaZn Conclusion:

Both did dope, ATN just did better IMO. I'm a big fan of both Bboys so don't talk smack about my critique, I posted it because I currently can't understand why people thought Rainen won (if it was a battle). I thought it'd be proper to analyze it since people are just saying who they think won. I am by no means a proper Bboy judge, which is why I had to watch this video over and over to get my judgement in check. Mad respects to ATN and Rainen, epic Bboys in the scene.

@Mo0m0oSaZn 4th Round:

Again, ATN came in strong and had a nasty, fluid round and his footwork was on beat. Could've stuck the ending freeze longer, but he didn't crash so good enough. Rainen had an iffy transition out of the flare, but the leg grab head swipe was dope, I know he tapped his foot on the mill-cricket on purpose, but it looked weird and he didn't hit his finishing freeze. Therefore, ATN took this.

5th Round:

Need I critique? It's pretty clear ATN took this one.
