The fan consensus points to a clear performance victory for Deeno, who showed significant improvement in his flow, confidence, and delivery. While many fans believe Kandi held back or intentionally underperformed due to their friendship, Deeno's material and execution on the night earned him the win.
The clash between Deeno and Kandi was less of a war and more of a friendly spar, a narrative that dominated fan perception.

Kandi delivered his signature brand of off-the-wall humor, landing quotable punches about Mecca and sunburns.
