    Zaki was slightly more difficult but slower spinning, faster spinning=slightly more difficult? So difficulty is equal presentation was similar....I nulled. EDIT: I voted iColor out of preference but it was basically a tie.

    Since when is being fast difficult..?

    I voted for XYZaki, I liked his style. iColor is getting good fast though. and whats with this faster spinning is harder? Different people spin at different speeds, it gets harder the more you go away from your "natural" speed, if you want to go really fast thats going to be hard, but if you want to go really slow thats going to be just as hard if not harder (since you have to maintain smoothness and appeal). Neither spinner spun at an ungodly fast or ungodly smooth rate so their difficulty isn't affected much. Maybe people get used to watching XYZaki's combo then iColor looks that much faster XD IDK

    i spin faster than s777, so therefore i am better than him right voted for XYZaki for a more developed style and better control speed has nothing to do with difficulty, it just has to do with style IMO, its hard to spin slow, and its hard to spin fast spinning slow, smoothness problems are a lot more evident spinning fast, you risk losing control of your pen

    An advantage of spinning faster is that you can showcase more tricks in 20 sec as opposed to spinning slow for 20 seconds -- but if you sacrifice difficulty/creativity to spin fast with control during that time, spinning fast will more likely hurt you. /voted for zaki

    IDK why people are preferring iColour. His combo was super simple, unoriginal and not amazing at all really.

    smoothness win + speed= win!!! ^_^

    XYZaki's video was superior in pretty much every aspect.

    XYZaki got this one. His combo had creative linkages and a real JEB style/ feel. Icolours combo had difficulty but an ordinary combo. By the way, XYZaki, are you trying to achieve a Toro style/angle?

    Uhh no...but I could if I want I guess. I change angles a lot (because I tape my webcam to a standing lamp).

    +1 XYZaki for difficulty, that's always the deciding voter.
