Almost always whenever i went to any of it's comment section i would see dozens of them pointing such subtle remarks and points that i completely overlooked because i didn't knew enough about the subject and made it appreciate even more .
I feel like that's especially true for the newer ERBs, earlier seasons had way shorter verses with more surface level bars and punchlines but man there's so many hidden gems in the newer releases. It took me a while to appreciate Joker vs Pennywise but jeez there's a lot in that one.

Had to pause after he rated Stalin V Rasputin at C, that video is a masterpiece of references and wordplay, and I remember it came out when I was a student learning about history (WW1/WW2/Cold War stuff) Would watch it over and over again because it was one of the best ERB had ever done
I'm seeing you everywhere patterrz, stop following me bro Fr tho love the content man kinda crazy seeing you pop up in the comments of so many yputubers I watch
Rasputin vs Stalin is their peak, their video still to beat. It’s got so many historical references and is the best example of what this channel should be-history rap battles. Plus the flow and music itself is great but hey, each to their own, at least everyone can agree ERB are RUclips classics and are amazing. Also Stan Lee vs Jim Henson is a must see banger.
Imagine hating on Jobs vs Gates. It's so wholesome when he's says "the whole world loved but you were my friend" and Master Chief vs Leonidas. These are legit some of the best ones.
The director‘s one to me is one of the best, the set-up between Spielberg, Hitchcock, Tarantino, Kubrick and their body of work & state of cinema is so well done while also referencing different eras and styles of rap music, with Michael Bay‘s finale being the brilliant icing on the cake.
Everyone talking about the history references but I can't get over the "I'm about to bake raps from scratch like I'm Carl Sagan" line. A reference to the original "Cosmos" series, where Carl Sagan famously says "If you want to bake a pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe", and Stephen Hawking's PhD Thesis(and subsequent work) was a lot to do with early universe cosmology
bro all of the vids in the tier list were seasons 1-3, if he saw shit like easter vs wester philosophers or pennywise vs the joker then he wouldn't think that
L tierlist tbh. The older ones had their flair and it was easier to get the bars and the disses, but as it went on, they started putting in more references in their bars and it just makes it so much better. But after Rasputin’s battle, it just watched it go downhill on the video.
Dude I didn't realize they had such big names in these. Key and Peele, snoop dogg, fucking smosh (this was back when they were the biggest channel on yt) That's actually really impressive.
I honestly think that their new battle are way better than their old ones. The level of references and bars are higher. The production quality is also higher.
@@howiedahaole7743 that’s so not true, they have a team of writers and patreon supporters who can submit lines, early ERBs has some very silly unrelated bars compared to the genius that is “You’re an ump Che, that’s Bay of Pigs latin.”
I still fucking love ERB. rewatched basically all of them recently and there are barely any that I think are bad. even the newer ones absolutely bang imo
Poe vs King should be higher than C tier man. It's up there with Jack the Ripper vs Hannibal Lecter. Poe even rapped in his style for the first verse, and they started and ended the rap like The Raven, a famous work of Poe.
Artists vs. Turtles is absolutely one of the best they've ever done. The rapping, the beat, and the historical references are all so, so good. From an art major =P
it's honestly pretty disappointing. too few art and historical references. east vs west philosophers is without a doubt the best one, artists vs turtles doesn't hold a candle to it
Maybe in terms of historical references but the vs lacks punching and that's number 1 in a rap battle, they need to diss each other way more and harder.
@@magnus9839 dude its not stealing when its such a clear cut reference to the video its on, not really a surprise more than 1 person had the idea to comment it

The Trump Vs Hillary one was such a huge deal when I was in 8th grade? Everyone was going nuts about his line about his ass pressed against the glass ceiling
Frankly, I was super hyped when I got notified for this vid, cause I love watching both Lud and ERB, but rn I am literally losing my mind. You filtered the battles by view count (when it doesnt judge them based on quality AT ALL), watched mostly mid tier battles on stream, and ranked battles from like 9 years ago as the cream of the crop when they have SO much more underrated battles that actually have some top tier writing and production quality
Like, I get it if the only value you get out of erb is whether or not it's entertaining/makes you laugh, but there's so much effort that goes into it with good writing, sound design and whatnot. Yeah sure it's corny but what did u expect when it's called 'Epic Rap Battles of History'
"My boy in Israel" was a reference to a skit from few years back about a stormtrooper literally being in Israel... Can't remember the details and I couldn't find the videos. But I'm surprised nobody mentioned that. You should look it up. From what I can remember, it was hilarious.
I heavily disagree tbh, Thanos' first verse was fire, and his second was alright. The issue is that Oppenheimer's were both godly, and he didn't have an incredibly bad costume. I'd say it's more of a decisive loss for Thanos, there are way more one sided battles.
Damn, I was kinda hoping he'd get to the Philosophers rap. That one is like one of the best in beat and facts but it wasn't in the high popularity list.

the production on the hawking verse is actually wild for the time, their engineer probably spent a vast majority of time on making that vocoder thing happen
@@Ramix09 idk if you’ve ever used autotune but that’s not what the effect they’re using is, formant adjustment and things like that are a lot more recent
Mozart goes hard, vividly remembered einstein and stephen hawking. Nice seeing some of the ones i haven’t seen honestly a hilarious series couple months ago me and my friend online actually remembered ERB but didn’t rewatch any.
Usually, you might want to make a tierlist when you're a total amateur or good at your subject. Doing one when you're average is a bit complicated, honestly, you're just getting caught in the crossfire. I had to step back quite a few times with the choices that were made, and I'm pretty tolerant.
I remember watching these back in high school, but when the Albert Einstein vs Steven hawking came on out of the depths of my brain came every lyric, 10 years later I somehow knew the entire song by heart. Could not agree more with your "nostalgia blast" comment.
Master Chief vs Leonidas was still in my head, line by line, after all those years. Imagine I could use that memory for something useful.. So what in the cinnamon toast fuck is that piece of art doing in F tier??????
The Vader Hitler battles are so legendary. I remember random people at high school just screaming "I AM ADOLPH HITLER, COMMANDER OF THE THIRD REICH! LITTLE KNOWN FACT, ALSO DOPE ON THE MIC!" all the time.
Not to mention saying he supported it lmao I hope he was just joking. Cause if not that's really ignorant. It's illegal for a reason, because the children end up victims with 3 eyes.
Tesla vs Edison has always been my favourite simply because of how informational, accurate, and referencing it is. Because they really were rivals and everything they said was true; Not to mention Tesla is one of my favourite inventors of all time and my hatred of Thomas Edison kindof fueled that. I'd always thought they should do Lovelace vs Turing but maybe another time :)
You guys should watch the VOD if you enjoyed ERB, features full reaction, the edited down version had me tripping thinking I didn't remember the lyrics for a second.
The issue here (as with any other reaction) is that ERB spends a LOT of time on its lyrics. Your appreciation for the video will be significantly impacted by how informed you are about the two rappers.
The thing with ERB is - your enjoyment depends on your own general knowledge and background .

DUDE ITS YOU??????????
@@UnisRapper hello
What would you say would represent season 7 so far?
This man should not be in charge of any tier list…
Please never touch another ERB list again
Bros vs. Pros. The worlds worst, most troll friendly series.
The fact that he left all the rhett and link parts out really hurts me.
the production on the hawking verse is actually wild for the time, their engineer probably spent a vast majority of time on making that vocoder thing happen
What do you mean? It's only 10 years old, not 30, autotune existed already haha
@@Ramix09 idk if you’ve ever used autotune but that’s not what the effect they’re using is, formant adjustment and things like that are a lot more recent
@@Ramix09 not to mention this is a youtube video not a professional studio type of production
@@MattBolman you haven't watched the bts of erbs
These kind of erbs you have to watch multiple times to understand the jokes
Was hoping he'd watch Teddy Roosevelt vs. Winston Churchill. Probably their best one besides the TMNT one
Mozart goes hard, vividly remembered einstein and stephen hawking. Nice seeing some of the ones i haven’t seen honestly a hilarious series couple months ago me and my friend online actually remembered ERB but didn’t rewatch any.
ERB should do Rebecca Black vs Rick Astley. That would be pretty cool
Reminds me of Drew Gooden I see the yoink and the twist are both doing well
I was thinking the exact same thing
holy shit the spam bots
@@nbshftr they're everywhere man we've lost
To this day, I think it was a stroke of genius to have Stephen Hawking rap in auto-tune.
this tierlist just proves his intelligence lol
Usually, you might want to make a tierlist when you're a total amateur or good at your subject. Doing one when you're average is a bit complicated, honestly, you're just getting caught in the crossfire. I had to step back quite a few times with the choices that were made, and I'm pretty tolerant.
I was shocked he ranked some at S and A.
The micheal Jackson vs Elvis Presley rating is making me lose my shit rn
He fucked up the tierlist so bad
Anthony Padilla actually delivered his lines pretty dope in the Painters vs Turtles one.
I remember watching these back in high school, but when the Albert Einstein vs Steven hawking came on out of the depths of my brain came every lyric, 10 years later I somehow knew the entire song by heart. Could not agree more with your "nostalgia blast" comment.
And you remembered even the amounts of words "million"???
That 10 million verse is still, to this day the hardest line I have ever heard in an ERB
You don’t seem to get that they started making the battles to focus on historically accurate disses and complex lyric writing not cheap jokes
3:57 was crazy, nice job steve
Master Chief vs Leonidas was still in my head, line by line, after all those years.
Imagine I could use that memory for something useful..
So what in the cinnamon toast fuck is that piece of art doing in F tier??????
This has to be the single most fucked teirlist about anything i’ve ever seen
THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING
I KNOW RIGHT?! SERIOUSLY, LUDWIG, HOW DID YOU FUCK IT UP SO BAD-
ERB was the reason I made a RUclips account. I had to lie about my age so I could watch Darth Vader vs. Hitler 3 since it was age-restricted.
The Vader Hitler battles are so legendary. I remember random people at high school just screaming "I AM ADOLPH HITLER, COMMANDER OF THE THIRD REICH! LITTLE KNOWN FACT, ALSO DOPE ON THE MIC!" all the time.
I PUT THE GERM IN GERMANY. I'M SICK ON THIS MIC
Erb still slaps and it slaps even harder when you get the references, thank god for their comment sections as well.
Ok I hate the fact he put the Stalin one so low it had so many good disses for anyone that knew them
Are we just gonna not talk about Ludwig's grandparents being cousins?
Right ? I mean great grandparents ok maybe. Diffrent times. But grandparents?
Not to mention saying he supported it lmao
I hope he was just joking. Cause if not that's really ignorant. It's illegal for a reason, because the children end up victims with 3 eyes.
I am 100% sure he was joking, yall are taking what he said too seriously.
He’s talked about this before
@The he’s actually inbred lol
"you can't get down a ramp"
That didn't age very well.
Wait how?
@@Lndo-sh1xl cause he old
He fell up some stairs earlier this year
@@venividi8523 I forgot about that lol
9:26 caught me so off guard that was so fucking funny
"I watched 1 from every season"
...has basically only s1 and S2 battles in there
Also
Ludwig missed PewDiePie dancing during the Russian tsar battle
19:40 The more impressive thing is that in the 10 years that comment was up, not a single person saw or liked it.
Honestly the Director Rap has a special place in my heart. That one was fire
Tesla vs Edison has always been my favourite simply because of how informational, accurate, and referencing it is. Because they really were rivals and everything they said was true; Not to mention Tesla is one of my favourite inventors of all time and my hatred of Thomas Edison kindof fueled that. I'd always thought they should do Lovelace vs Turing but maybe another time :)
12:55 that Boba Fett part went way harder than it needed to
Ludwig NEEDS to open up the lyrics on genius, we need a rewatch😭😭
12:01 me reading the Epsitine flight logs
Man i remember going to school like "GUYS GUYS YOU SEE THE NEW ERB YET?!?!" lmao the good ole days.
bro rewatching these im getting so many more of the jokes and punchlines they had in these battles
You guys should watch the VOD if you enjoyed ERB, features full reaction, the edited down version had me tripping thinking I didn't remember the lyrics for a second.
I forgot how wild some of these got
The issue here (as with any other reaction) is that ERB spends a LOT of time on its lyrics. Your appreciation for the video will be significantly impacted by how informed you are about the two rappers.
