I agree, this one was just awful. Let's see here...

1. There's no energy in it whatsoever. The beat is way too slow paced, and they sound like they're whispering all their lines. It almost threatens to speed up when Dracula "attacks" Vlad... but then he immediately backs off, and the beat slows back down to a snail's crawl again. Yawn.

2. Peter's Drac costume is terrible. Sometimes the costumes are good enough that I can forget (or might not even realize right away) that Lloyd and Peter are even there... in this case my immediate thought was, "oh, hey, it's NicePeter wearing the worst cosplay ever."

3. Peter doesn't bring his A game at all, bringing absolutely NO charisma to a character who is literally all about charisma. Literally. What is Dracula's entire thing? Dracula's entire thing is that he's so damn charming that you want to like him even despite knowing he's an evil monster who would gladly eat you alive. I can see that Peter was TRYING to go for that, even mentioning how suave and sexy he's supposed to be in his lines, but it totally falls flat for me. To be fair, that's mostly because...

4. Drac just gets NO good lines at all. Yeah, Vlad had lame-ass lines like "I dunk on your whackula raps like I'm Shaqula" but even so he still managed to utterly dominate this entire battle, with Vlad utterly failing to form any sort of comeback whatsoever.

The worst part is I was really hoping for a good Dracula battle, and was looking forward to this one once I heard what it was going to be, and it was just profoundly disappointing.
