@Ashspren

All right! You’re on the list Bit!

[Ashspren]

And the winner of the second tournament is...  

@Archer, representing Allomancer Jak! 

Congratulations, Archer! Your raps were incredible. I especially loved Handerwyrm’s annotations. 

Thanks to everyone who participated in this round! All of your raps were incredible, and all of you are the ones who make this possible. 

I will release the official statement starting signups for Tournament 3 in 24 hours or less.

[Herowannabe he/him]

Congrats @Archer! I confess that I’m not the least bit sad that we never faced each other directly.  

Thanks @Ashspren for running this and props to all the other contestants this time around. Allomancer Jak may have won but there wasn’t a single dull rap this tournament!

[Edgedancer Jak]

Congrats @Archer!! Well-earned!! To be honest, your raps and @Zath's raps as Spook (esp. with the High Imperial) have been my favorite in any of the rounds so far, so I'd say the voting has been true to form this far! Well-rapped!!

[Archer he/him]

Back at you, @Edgedancer Jak! It was my pleasure and honour to face off against you. I loved how in-character you got. It was a great finale! 

Shout-out to everyone who roasted (and allowed themselves to be roasted)! Not only did everyone create great submissions, but you all were super gracious and supporting. Self inflicted back-pats all around! @Herowannabe I'll admit I was a tiny bit disappointed that I didn't get to roast Stick, but the best pun I'd come up with was calling him 'short staff-ed', so maybe it's for the best. 

Thank you to everyone who voted for me. And of course, special thanks goes out to @Ashspren for putting this all together. This whole thing was a fantastic idea, and I've had a lot of fun participating. All the upvotes! 

I look forward to watching how the next tournament goes!

Ha ha!  

I had even started brainstorming a few lines when it looked like I might be facing Jak. Now that it’s over I might as well share them: 

Spoiler

Extra extra read all about it

Jak’s about to get beat,

you better not doubt it

Just 2 clips to read his defeat

 

Your a loser, a joke

Don’t believe me? Just ask

That terrisman bloke

Or that hot Koloss lass

 

You’re just propaganda made to please the masses

You’re only there to make cash for corporate This post has been reported for attempting to skirt the ruleses.

Thank you, Archer, along with everyone else, for participating and making this possible! As I’ve mentioned before, I was struggling to get enough people for Tournament 1, and now I have people who have reserved spots for Tournament 3. This is honestly incredible, and I’m so glad that everyone is enjoying it! 

When I get some time, I will update the Roast Archive for Tournament 2. 

~~~ 

Speaking of, now is the time to enter for Tournament 3! Please post which character you will be representing. 

We will have two new rules this round: 

1.  Any characters that have been used by Roast Battle Champions shall henceforth be retired. Therefore, nobody is allowed to do Spook (@Zath) or Allomancer Jak (@Archer). 

2.  If we are in the face of a tie, the two people who tied will have up to 8 lines to roast the other person. These mini-roasts, plus the actual raps themselves, will determine the winner of that round. 

If anyone has any questions, feel free to post them on the thread, or PM me. 

~~~ 

Reserved List: 

@Spacefaring Ferring

@Julio

@Silva

@Kidpen

@BitBitio

Let the sign-ups begin!

You know I honestly can't tell if you tried to use asterisks or if you misspelled ruleset or something and it was a joke. Guessing the first though. 

[+Ark1002]

I'll be a pinch hitter again.

[Ink he/him]

I'll be either TenSoon or Pinch hitter if someone else wants him or there are more than 16 people.

Whoops! Yeah it was the asterisks thing. My bad! 

 

@Ashspren I’d like to sign up for round 3 as Human (the Koloss) please!  

[BitBitio he/him]

I'd like to sign on as Szeth. @Ashspren

[Kidpen he/him]

I get to choose my character?!?! 

I have no idea what to choose.

[Wyndlerunner he/him]

I'll join as Jasnah Kholin.

We can choose one for you if you want... 

 

Does anyone remember the name of the beggar that’s there when Axies the Collector wakes up in the alleyway?

[Silva]

I’ll go for Hoid.

Just saying, I can’t write anything over Wednesday next week or Monday and Tuesday the week after or Saturdays because of religious stuff, but I work fast so as long as I have a few hours I can work it out. You have been warned.

Shallan might be cool. You could rap as her different personas.

Or maybe Vasher, and have Nightblood do a guest rap.

Ooh, or you could do Sylphrena. I don’t have anything extra for this one, but Syl’s cool enough anyway. 

Just some ideas.

Oh and @Ashspren, you might want to update the first post with the pinch hitter stuff.

Yes. 

@Rebecca, thanks for the reminder, will do! 

Everyone who has signed up, I will add you to the official list soon! Sorry, on mobile right now.

If it's all right that I take part again.
