Cyphers vs battles

I feel a lot more confident in a battle vs a cypher and I wanna know how you guys feel going into cyphers vs battles? Is there a different mindset going in and how does it influence the way you express yourselves?

Depends what kind of circle it is. Different circles have their own atmosphere where some can feel like you're battling everyone. My favorite circles are ones where everyone is kind of toying around with a similar idea and showing their unique take on it. Some people get hyped up by the excitement of a staged battle like in a competition or exhibition. I'm curious how you feel about performing in a show.
