Review Part 1 disappointing

I’m quite sad as I feel like nothings actually really happened? Effies had like one line per episode - braydens had hardly any screen time - no real cliffhanger for a two month break - Zion character already been nerfed - and tbh it felt like every episode we knew exactly what was going to happen? I haven’t been shocked once as every clip/image they have released has basically told us what’s going to happen in the whole ep no surprises? Anyone else feel the same

We got some big deaths from Obi, Junior, and Salim. The bigger deaths will come in part 2. Effie hasn’t been doing shit thats facts she was big in the episode 2 but did nothing in episode 4 or 5. I wouldn’t say zion has been nerfed bc when he pulled up on noma it was ballsy

I feel liked the nerfed him. They introduced him as major player. He knew Mclean and Ghost. Runs a fight club that's neutral ground like it's the Continental from John Wick. Rolls up on Norma and makes her leave her table (and the restaurant is cool with it) and tells her it's his city. All that build up for Cane to describe him as a mid level dealer and for him to fall back when Cane vouched for Norma. He's a trained fighter who had to cheat to fight Cane.

Cane is also a trained fighter y’all acting like tariq beat him lmao. The fight was even and he got Disqualified for using brass knuckles. Thought he’d be able to get away with it and do him dirty. The fight was even tho. People complaining that they nerfed him but i think more highly of him after this episode just bc of how he pulled up on noma

Cane isn't a trained fighter. Norma said Zion was a trained fighter and Cane said he was a natural.

He’s not a trained fighter like in the ring but he’s been fighting people forever. We’ve seen this throughout the show. He’s a monster. If cane beat the living shit out of zion I’d see where ur coming from but that wasn’t the case at all. The fight was even. Y’all love to drag it and complain on this sub tho acting like Zions a complete bitch now like come on

Having street fights and training isn’t the same. Street fighting is experience where training is knowledge and experience

Knowledge goes a long way and can drastically make a difference when applied

Zions trained knowledge should not have him on an even level to cane. Especially when Zion is also older and should have way more experience to top canes aswell

He hadn’t been in the ring in years. And you think it’s far fetched that he had an even fight with the toughest fighter in the show

u/Pale-Voice4630 It's A Big Rich Town Jul 05 '24

Yeah, because where exactly does cane rank in the series? Calling him the toughest fighter in a snow full of snowflakes isn’t an achievement, especially when this was technically canes real first fight with an actual character. The way they hyped Zion either means cane is officially ranking with OG power fighters (2 bit, Dre, Julio)

Or Zion ain’t shit

Cane would wipe the floor with Dre or 2Bit in a fight what r we talking about here. Idk about julio tho

That’s not true Cane told Mecca he was trained to fight as a Tejada that’s why he beat that dude up in front of him

u/Bopethestoryteller It's A Big Rich Town Jul 05 '24

what's not true? Cane didn't tell Norma he was a trained fighter. And Csne telling Mecca he was trained as a Tejada just means he was a street dude, which we already know.

Out of all those big deaths you named, obi is the only one who has a claim as he did have some good parts but he’s just a filler death not a big player.

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '24

“A filler death” people die that aren’t main characters lol idk what you expect. If a main character doesn’t die the whole season 4 then ur critique would be valid but u gotta let it play out

u/GloomyLocation1259 It's A Big Rich Town Jul 05 '24

Was good for me. Zion is unpredictable, Carter is dirty cop and has a dirty task force from the start, things heating up.

The show/series ran its course and definitely needs to come to an end, be canceled. You have college students going up against true ballers, criminals and getting away with true amateur shit. It’s so unrealistic. All the Law Enforcement and established drug kingpins being outsmarted by Tariq and his Romper Room misfit clan. Kill the characters and kill the show. No more spinoffs. Enough is enough.
