While not one of the first names that come to mind when King of the Dot is mentioned, Tycoon Tax is nevertheless a staple of the league. Around for just as long, if not longer, than some of his fellow Canadian battlers, Tax has been impressing viewers on KOTD stages for over three years now. Representing Rexdale, ON, the home grown emcee has been involved with various King of the Dot events in Toronto, accepting battles with up and comers and established emcees alike. Tycoon Tax is always willing to put on a show, bringing energy and delivery to every one of his battles, ensuring that regardless of the outcome, the fans will leave knowing his name. Boasting a resume that includes names such as Skelly, Justice, and most recently Yung Casper, Tycoon Tax has shown that he is willing to do what it takes to prove himself, and his hard work is finally paying off. Battling now at Blackout 3, the underrated vet has another chance to show the world why they should not be sleeping on Tycoon Tax.
Having been around since the inception of King of the Dot, Kaliente is another emcee that is somewhat on the periphery for most battle fans. Despite having been in the ring with some of the heavy hitters of today's battle circuit, the upstate New York battler is forced to continue to fight for respect and his reputation, which he does with no hesitation. Not one to back down from any challenge, Kaliente has been one of KOTD's most reliable battlers, making regular appearances and always coming correct. With battles against fan favorites like Hollohan, Arcane, and Loe Pesci, Kal has traded blows with some of Canada's finest and has more than held his own. With a penchant for getting in his opponents face and delivering crushing lines, Kaliente has proven why he is a threat to any and all who may step in the ring against him. On the undercard for Blackout 3, Kaliente vs. Tycoon Tax will be the battle of the underrated, showing who has the skills to overcome the other.
